THE NATIONAL CONVENTION.

MURDER AT MADISON.

TITE IRON WORKS' STKIKK—Pl'DDLERS DISCHARGED.

WIFE MTTEDEB AT NASHVILLE-SHOOT-ING AFFRAY AT NEWBTJKQ, N. Y.

CHICAGO, June 4.—The situation tonight is as complicated as ever. No one can anticipate the result There is no break in tne Grant line, and the confidence of the Grant managers remains undisturbed. It is not believed that Blaine is as strong as he was twelve hours ago, ia which now intervenes damages his pros-

and his leaders feel that every delay

pects. Yesterday the Blaine men were hopeful and aggressive. To-day they have been quiet, submissive and apprehensive.

The feeling is beginning to grow that a dark horse is to be sprung upon the Convention, and that he will be supported by the Grant forces, if Grant is withdrawn. This is, however, only a speculation, as the Grant men say they know no second choice.

The uncertain elements in the Convention are the Connecticut and Indiana delegations, more especially, and the Ohio delegation after Sherman is a cipher. The Blaine men claim that the bulk of the vote from the latter State will go Blaine, in consideration for which Foster is to be the Vice Presidential candidate with Blaine.

The Vermont delegation is also a mystery, in so far that it cannot be anticipated how the delegation will vote if Edmund's name is not presented. If the name of Wasliburne is not presented, the claim is made that Grant will get some following in that State.

Up to the hour of to-night's meeting the outlook is decided that the report of the credential committee will not be disposed of until long after the midnight hours, and probably not then, and that the nominations will not be made before to-morrow afternoon. There is the possibility and the strong probability that it will be Monday next before tho nomination is made. There are yet to be disposed of two important reports before the decks are cleared for balloting for candidates and the actual work begins.

It is becoming evident that the patience of the delegates is fast being exhausted ovQr the length of the convention's session. All hs.d hoped thitt at the furthest the nomination would have culminated to-day. The fear of the Blaine men is that the Grant men are purposely seeking delay to worry the Blaine forces and weaken their front. Indeed, one of the Blaine Californian delegates said to night in open convention that he thought the too frequent recesses had behina th«m some object. It was a dig at the Grant leaders, and the packed galleries applauded vociferously.

The temper of the convention is clearly against the minority reports, or Grant, report of the credential committee. This opposition represents the field against Grant only in the preliminary skirmish the field is not united yet on any candidate against Grant, and cannot be unless anew man is presented. The danger of this is that if a new candidate is sprung, except by Grant's friends, it might end in securing Grant's nomination, lie has a reversionary interest in a good deal of Blaine's strength, and the Blaine leaders know it. It seems if Grant is not nominated he will dictate the nominee.

For five hours to-day, the full time occupied in the morning session of the Convention, not a dish was washed. There was a deal of clever manipulation, one or two good points secured by both the Grant and Blaine sides, ana too much time wasted by Senator Logan in bringing to the front the Illinois grievances. From the start the Grant leaders forced the fighting. The test vote of last night, which developed that their line was standing firm, gave Conkling courage, and to-day, instead of waiting for the Blaine faction to thrust a fight before the Convention, it was courted.

No sooner had prayer been offered than Conkling rose in hiOlace, and with an impressment which was all to haughty to catch a western audience. He offered a resolution, pledging all the delegates in advance to support the nominee. There was a double object in this,—first, if adopted it would have had the effect of silencing all of the clamor that there were Republicans in the Convention who would not support Grant if nominated and second, to smoke out and have known the recreants, if such there were.

Conkling

made no speech in

defense of his motion. He simply assumed that it would prevail. Little Eugene hale, to give the cue to the Blaine forces, supported the motion with a rather clever speech. The motion was put, and on a viva coca vote, there were one or two negative responses. Now came Conkling's opportunity. "I rise, Mr. President," said be, "to demand a call of the States. I want to know who in this Convention it is who will not support the nominee." No attempt was made to interrupt the motion, for the impression was general tnat the negative responses did not come from any of the aelegj^es, but from some of the spectators. The roll call proceeded, and to the utter amazement of the Blaine forces West Virginia, which is a solid Blaine delegation, voted three negative votes. Instantly there was a sensation. Hisses, mingled with cheers, were heard in thehalL .,

MIDSIOHT.—The Blaine men are Jubilant. The gallery demonstrations have turned the heads of his leaders, and inspired them with an assuring confidence. Their tail feathers are now up, but the wind may veer to-morrow.

MADISON, IXD., June 4.—In an altercation this afternoon in the eastern part of the city Ranson Smith shot and killed Jacob Hammersmith. A feud has existed between the parties for some time. To-day a chicken belonging to Hammersmith got into Smith's yard, and Mrs. Hammersmith, going after it, was ordered off the premises. A quarrel ensued. Hammersmith returning home, finding his wife engaged in a quarrel, at once took a hana in the melee which followed, by Smith's house being bombarded by rocks and clubs. Smith having retreated inside the house, procuring a revolver, warned them off, but the wretched man paid no attention,*and Smith opened fire on Hammersmith, the first shot entering the left breast in the region of the heart, causing death in a few minutes. The second shot did not take effect. Smith was promptly ^arrested and lodged in jail. lie is a widower, aged 61, and has resided in Madison over thir ty-eight years. Hammersmith, who was somewhat of a notorious character, leaves a wife and two daughters. Smith claims he did the shooting in self-desensc.

NEW ALBAXY, June 4.—The strike of the puddlers at the Ohio Falls Works today remains about the same as yesterday. This morning a Committee of the Amalgamated Union waited upon the managers of the mill and demanded that they raise the tariff in the bar and muck-mill rollers and heaters, but not the guide-mill heaters and rollers. They asked the Cincinnati scale of prices on part, but not on all. This movement on the part of the pudpiers is to involve the other departments of the mill in the strike. As yet the demand has not been acceded to.

This afternoon the puddlers called at the office in pursuance to a notice to receive their pay. Accompanying each en{ velope containing the amount owing to each was a notice of their discharge from the Company's service.

NEWBUUG, N. Y., June 4.—John G. Thompson, jr., of Ohio, son of the Ser-geant-at-Arms of the House of Representatives, Washington, was shot and seriously wounded in the abdomen to day at Iliglilaud Falls, by Beaumont Buck, of Texas. Both were candidates for admission to West Point Military Academy and attending Coluse's preparatory school. Buck, wno had been made the victim of a mild form of hazing by the other students, became enraged at some remarks to-day, and drew a revolver and shot Thompson. Buck gave himself up to Justice Avery, and was committed to the County Jail to await the result of Thompson's injuries. The bullet passed through the latter's body. His condition is critical. Sergeant-at-Arms Thompson was telegraphed for at once.

Buck is a son of J. G. Buck, President of Dullafe College* Texas! Just before the shooting Thompson had taken Buck to task for a statement Buck was credited with having made to West Point cadets, to the effect that he had "cleaned out'' Hluse's whole school, Buck denied makinc the statement. After wrangling, Buck backed away from Thompson about six feet, drew a revolver, and remarking with threats that he would stand no more of this, fired at Thompson. Buck told Jus ticc Avery the students had used him worse than a nigger. He does not realize the situation lie said if lie could not arrange matters so as to report at West Point Juno 12. he wonld have to get his Congressman to reappoint him, when he would try it again in September.

Wife* Murder.

NASHVILLE, TENN., June4.—A Brownsville special to the American says "A most bmtal and cold-blooded murder occurred in this city last night at 10 o'clock. Frank King killed his wife in a fit of jealousy, by knocking her down with an ax and then dragging her outside the door into the yard and beating her over the head with a heavy club. King and his wife have not been on good terms for several weeks. Last night he told a negro neighbor that he was going to kill her, and in about fifteen minutes came back to the same house and called the man out, said he had killed his wife, and for some one to go up to her house. He ran off to the woods, where he hid out until about twelve o'clock to-day, when he was captured about two miles from town, and was brought before Escjuire G. P. Ware for preliminary examination, but on motion of his counsel the case was continued until to-morrow morning. The prisoner will probably escape hanging, as from all I can learn there are mitigating circumstances.
