' MAD WITH ENTHUSlAtM A Perfect Cyclone of Applause Greet- ed MCKinley’s Nomination. CHOSEN BY ACOLAMA'I'ION. SEX-Governor Forakbr Placed the Tarlfi Bill Framcr’s Nain‘io Before the Con- vention and Senator Sherman Con- Ducted mm to the Platform. COLUMBUS, 0., June 18. —The Republican convention of the state of Ohio reassem- bled at 9 o’clock Wednesday morning and at once got right down to business. In the twinkling of an eye General Asa Bush- nell, of Springfield, was elected permanent chairman of the convention. The platform, which highly eulogized the McKinley bill, demanded the protec- tion of agricultural interests, labor and the wool industry; indorsed the amended coinage act of the last Republican con- gross, demanded the free exercise of the ballot, called for restricted immigration, ' favored economy in the administration of national and state afiairs, called, for lib on] pensions for army and navy pension- ers, indorsed President Harrison’s admin» istration, commended Senator Sherman and his congressional colleagues, and do- nounced the "Ripper” legislature of Ohio, was adopted in short order, and the great scene of the day was enacted. Nominations were then declared 1n Order, and ex-Governor J. B. Foraker 1n 8. ring ing speech placed before the convention the name of William McKinley, Jr. In an instant the entire- assemblage. was on its feet and the‘name McKinley was caught up on a thousand tongues, while hats, canes and handkerchiefs were wildly waved or thrown into the air. Before the delegates had fairly recovered themselves the chairman put the motion to the cou- vention, and amid a perfect cyclone of en- thusiasm William McKinley, J r., was by acclamation declared the choice of the con vention as its candidate for governor. Acommittee, headed by Senator Sher- man, was then appointed to conduct. the nominee to the platform, and as he ap poured on the elevation the surging sea. 01 humanity again let itself loose, and whooped things- up in an ear splitting style for several minutes. ' McKinley’s Speech. After the wild outburst of cheering had subsided Major McKinley proceeded with his speech. After, expressing thanks for the nomination he said that the Republi- can party of Ohio heartily indorsed the administration of President Harrison, was in favor of a regulated immigration which would debar the vicious and criminal, de- mended liberal pensions for our soldiers and sailors, would insist on laws to bring about free ballot and honest elections, and favored a circulating medium which would be sound and, stable and secure from discount, depreciation or fluctuation. On the tariff question he spoke as follows: We are confronted by a real danger, which prudent men of all parties should seek to avert before it is too late. We have reached the point where the ways part—the one straight and honorable, the other crooked and beset with ills—the one leading away from the well settled policy of the fathers, which can end only in arevolution of values, the ruin of natiéna] and individual credits and financial derango ment generally; the other leading on the shin- ning path of public safety and financial honor. There is but one path for Republicans to pursue. The public credit and sound finances must be preserved, and every scheme to destroy it must be met with courage and intelligence, and re pelled by the mighty force of public opinion. Better risk defeat which can be only tempo rary than capitulate with the demagogue 01 surrender to dishonesty. The Republican party never won a. battle by truckling. , It never lost one when it was honest and courageous.0u1 platform indorses a. protective tariif, which ha: been the policy of the government, recognized in its fiscal legislation, for more than half of its life, and which has brought to the nation great streams of revenue to meet every national de mand, and to the people the highest prosperity and the widest diversity of employment. Sc long as foreign products can be found to tax which compete with our own in our market we propose to tax them rather than tax our own We prefer to tax the imported rather than the domestic product. The Democratic party pre fers to tax the domestic product rather than the imported. He Makes 0. Contrast. This is the difference between the two par ties on this question. We follow 1n our tarifi policy the teachings of Washington and Hamil ton and Clay and Webster and Lincoln and Garfield Theyjmrsue the fallacies of Cobder and Bright and Calhoun, and the statesmen ot the late southern Confederacy They 8.16 pledged now to impede, if they can, the pros perity of the country until after the next presi dential election. That is their mission thii year. Business disaster and reverses are the ladder of their hopes. They insist that we can not make tin plate—so they said about stee1 rails, so they said about plate glass and cut lery and pottery, and when you take them tc the factory and show them that We are mak: ing tin plate they assert with intense pleasure that we are only making “a. little.” That is true; but how much shall we be making—that we are making any is the surprise, for the pro tective duty on tin has not yet gone into efiect and will not until the 1st of July. There is much complaint, particularly in Eu rope, and among free trade theorists at home about the 1ncr eased duties under the new tarifi law. It was framed on the principle I have al ready announced. T1 ue, we did advance som( duties. It is said they bear heavily on the farmers. Let us see if this criticism is support ed by the facts. Thirty-three and one-third per cent. of the advanced duties are for the better protection of the American farmer. Twenty-eight 1n number of the advanced dutiet are upon wine and spirits, which will hardly burden the American farmer. Five of the ad vauced duties are upon tobacco, an agricultura‘ product. In the framing of the law most care ful consideration was given to agriculture. The remainder of Mr. McKinley’s speech was devoted to a defense of the new tarifl law and to state issues. . The Noxniuations Concluded. After Major McKinley had concluded his speech the nominations were proceed ed with, and resulted as follows: Andrew L. Hariis, ol' Preble county, wit nominated for lieute nant governor; Eben ezer W. Poe, of Vt‘ood county, was re nominated for auditor; ‘W. T. Cope, 01 Cleveland, was nominated for state trees urer, and Senator John K. Richards, 01 Lawrence, was nominated for attorney general. After the work of nominating had been concluded there were loud calls for Secre tary Foster, w ho ascended the platform and was receiver] with considerable cheer ing. He then made a short address to tht convention. S(.(:I'ct..l.1'_v Fostel" 3 Speech. Secretary Fe :m at the outset analyzed the increased Hippmpriatimis of the last congress and i11~is.cd that they were justi fied by sound policy Of the one hundred and so \ c1- 1; millions of inerease in the ap proprialions nearly twenty-three millions , ism, ,was for the postal service, and this he said, simply represented the growth of thecoun- -try for two years. ' Nearly two—thirds Of the entire increase dwas due to an increased pension list, and :Demo'crats in opposing and large appropriations were directly attack jing appropriations made for pensions. ,Ans'wering the talk about a bankrupt . '_treasu-ry, Secretary Foster predicted that . before the end of two years we will have ( 1' iticising money enough to meet. all goveinmental expenditures. The secretary opposed free and unlim- ited coinage of silver, and made use of this emphatic expression in favor of bi-metal— “That a. single standard of value based upon either gold or silver is too nar- 'rowa basis upon 3which to conduct the business of the world is now apparent to all Who have studied the question in this country, and by many in other civilized = countries as well.” Since 1878 we had coined nearly $403,000,- 000 of silver, all of which is in circulation, mainly in theform of its paper equivalent. Yet our gold and silver coins and their paper representatives have been main' tained at; equal purchasing value, sohl could see no danger under the present ' policy of not being able to continue thI existing status between gold and hilver. The Third Party. Of the third party movement, the 196ch tary said: “Much attention seems now tc be given to the new party, caused, it is al- leged, by unwise legislation of the old _ parties, by and through which the agri- cultural and labor interests are sacrificed for the benefit of the manufacturers, cor~ porations and wealthy classes. Just What this new party proposes to do to revere! these conditions is difficult to understand. “That there can be just ground for com plaint ag ainst the Republic: in party is not apparent. Its policy of protection has had the eflfect of creating a. home market f0] more than 90 per cent, of all that the farm- er produces, and that policy proposes tc keep‘ this incomparably the best market in the world for the farmers of our coun- try.” After the conclusion of routine business, and amid renewed cheering for the candi- dates, the convention adjourncd sine die.

Help from Perry and Bay ard was sent, and physicians cared for th( wounded. It was raining hard at the time of the accident, and the darkness and storm in creased the awful confusion. The details received at the local office were very mea ger. No names were given, and the crew at the scene are too busy rescuing passen- gers from the river to obtain particulars. The cause of the accident was the derail- ing of the locomotive just as it reached the trestle. The engine ran on the ties and tumbled into the stream, dr-ag ging after it all the. cars but the last sleeper. The crew in chmge belich that all the dead, two passengers, have been .taken out. The list of injured may reach thirty. some of whom are probably fatally hurt. Connecticut’s League Gone Up.

A MASS Scabrlght Swept by Flames and Four Hundred Buildings 'Consuined. SEAERIGHT, N. J., June 18.—4Although .. this place has been visited by fire seVeral times inits history, it never was so devastat- ed as by the disastrous and far reaching conflagration which raged here for fifteen When the fire-swept through the row the terror and confusion was awful. Men, women and children, old and young, aged and infirm, crowded out of their burning habitations andrushed to a place .Of safety. Some of the men stayed behind to fight the fire, but more fled before the flames. Those who were bedridden were hastily pulléd forth and carried to a place of safe- ty. Flames lit up the sky so that it was as bright as day. and the red glare could be seen miles away. The air was full of burning, flying timbers and spars which carried destruction with them. Every mo- ment a fresh house caught fire and one- more building was added to the pile. In 11.11400 buildings were burned. Most of them were buildings of small value and fishermcn’s cottages, but there were a number of large and valuable buildings the loss of which will be severely, felt. There is not a business place left at Sea.- bright today. The entire southern portion of the place, which comprises the business part and the homes of fishermen, has been swept away. Nobody pretends to know what the loss will amount to yet, but it is believed it will not fall short of $300,000. Over 200 people have been made home less by the fire. The wealthy families here are caring for them. No lives were lost. The Standard Oil’s Colossal Scoop. SPINGFIELD, 0., June 18.—St. Mary’s reservoir, in Mercer county, the largest artificial lake in the world, its dimensions being nine miles by two to four, is situ- ated in the heart of the richest oil and natural gas territory on the globe, as in its bed wells could be bored to produce mil- lions of dollars’ worth of gas and oil. The Standard oil people are going to grasp this tremendous prize, if possible, by buy- ing up land on both sides, when they will drain out a. portion of the water to' admit of boring wells. The company has al- ready lcased all the land on the east side of the reservoir near St. Mary’s. It is said they will dig a tunnel and gradually drain a good deal of the water into the, St. Mary’s river. The Standardpcople have already drilled wells 300 feet beyond the high water mark of last April. tention of the canal commissioners will be called to the situation. Crooks “71115 the RoadRaco.

ERIEF MIENTION. The German minister of commerce is in. vestigatin g charges made by German 011 merchants that the Standard Oil company has obtained a monopoly of the German oil market and is oppressing them, and that they are unable to obtain Russian oil owing to an arrangement between the Rothschilds and the Standard Oil com- pany.
