THE TEMPERANCE PEOPLE. The Outlook for the Two Conventions To Be Held To-Day. Indications that the Grcenbackers Will Capture Mr. Shiel’s Meeting—What Mr. E. 6. Reynolds Thinks.

The prohibition conventions which are to be held here to-day will probably be larger in interest than in size. A few temperance people who desired to take pari in the proceedings, arrived in the city yesterday, but the number is small, and it seems that many of the counties in the State will not be represented Headquarters were opened at the Grand Hotel, yesterday, by the faction opposed to the nomination of a State prohibition ticket, among the prominent leaders of which are E. B. Reynolds, J. B. Conner, Hon. Will Cumback and Dr. J. A. Houser. Although they have no hope of preventing the organization of an independent political movement, they claim that they have succeeded in preventing many from joining it, and they have met with some rather encouraging success in their work. The charge that Reynolds and Houser had endeavored to prevent many prohibitionists from atttending the convention called by Shiel is emphatically denied by both of those gentlemen. It is the intention of Reynolds, Conner, Houser and their followers not to attend the Shiel convention. Mr. Reynolds yesterday proposed, if the prohibition partisans desired a fair representation of the temperance people, to divide 2,000 tickets of admission to the convention equally between the leaders of the two factions, and it should be agreed that no one but those who are known to be friends of prohibition should be admitted on either side. Shiel declined, hoyvever, to give any consideration to the proposition, and it is announced that none but those who are known to be in favor of the nomination of a ticket will be allowed in the convention. WHAT MR. REYNOLDS SAYS. E. B. Reynolds, the president of the State organization, in speaking yesterday afternoon to a Journal reporter, of his reasons for opposing an independent political movement said: 1 ‘There are more than seventy-five per cent of the tem perance people who want nothing more than an opportunity te vote for constitutional prohibition. The political prohibitionists, making the strongest fight that it is possible for them to, cannot get more than 5,000 votes. Fully ninetenths of the temperance Republicans are satisfied with the declaration in favor of a constitutional convention, and that declaration is in harmony with the position I have occupied all the time. We have favored the submission idea, but the constitutional convention would bring ns nearer the object for which we are working. We could not possibly get submission in less than five years. A constitutional convention may be held within twelve months. It is the best opportunity that we have. We cannot hope for the success of a prohibition ticket, but the success of the Republican party is very probable. If we join in a movement which will work to its disadvantage, we can expect no favor from it after it gets into power, and it now offers us the best we can obtain.' 1 Mr. Reynolds believes that Sylvester Johnson, Dr. Brown. and many of the other temperance people who favor the independent political movement, are acting upon sincere convictions, but he thinks that there are others who have been urging it who are actuated only by motives of personal ambition or a desire to help the Democratic party.

THE GRAND OPERA-HOUSE CONVENTION. The convention at the Grand Opera-house will select a state central committee, the chief work of which will be to influence the temperance people to vote for no candidate for the Legislature who does not favor constitutional submission or a constitutional convention. They will make a strong fight upon the Legislature, but will make no effort in behalf of a State ticket They will adopt resolutions declaring themselves unalterably attached to the cause of prohibition, and they will never cease laboring uutil it becomes a part of the Constitution of the State. They will further declare that they will vote for no man who will not pledge himself to work for a constitutional convention or the submission to the vote of the people of an amendment in favor of prohibition. They will not indorse the platform of any party. It is especially desired that' the ladies who are interested in the temperance movement attend the State prohibition convention, which is to be held at the Grand Opera-house, beginning at 10 o’clock this morning. Good seats will be provided especially for them. THE PERMANENT ORGANIZATION.

The delegates to the prohibition convention, which is to be held at the Grand Opera-house today. at an informal meeting last night arranged for the permanent organization. On motion, one delegate from each district was appointed on committee on organization. Hon. WilUCumback was nominated for permanent chairman of the convention and Rev. Ira J. Chase, of Hendricks county, secretary, and the following delegates were nominated as vice-presidents from their congressional districts: First District—C. S. Roberts, of Vanderburg. Second—Rev. W. H. Whalen, of Knox. Third—A. S. Conner, of Jennings. Fourth—lsaac Carter, of Franklin. Fifth—J. B. Brant, of Monroe. Sixth—T. Nicholson, of Wayne. Seventh—John W. Ray. of Marion. Eighth—Dr. J. D. Mitchell, of Vigo. Ninth—L. Oursler. of Hamilton. Tenth—Dr. C. E. MeCallister, of Porter. Eleventh—W. H. Trommel, of Huntington. Twelfth- Wade, of Lagrange. Thirteenth—Rev. J. M. Whitehead, of Elkhart. Dr. C. G. Bartholomew, of the Thirteenth district, was appointed chairman of the committee of conference, which was made to consist of one man from each congressional district, as follows: First District—C. L. Roberts, of Vanderburg. Second —E. Gaskin, of Davis. ,'M Third—J. H. Reed, of Jennings. Fourth—W. W. Snyder, of Jefferson. Fifth—J. G. McPheeters, of Monroe. Sixth—Rev. J. 11. Herrick, of Henry. Seventh—Rev. Dr. A. Marine, of Marion. Eighth Toner, of Vigo. Ninth— A. M. Gibson.of Tippecanoe. Tenth—Dr. Reed, of Fulton. Eleventh—Rev. L. L. Carpenter, of Wabash. Twelfth—J. M. Sbaekleton, of Lagraange.

THE GREKNBACKKSS’ ACTIVITY. From the indications last' night the Greenhackers seemed to he in a fair way to capture the Sbiel combination and secure the nomination of Dr. H. Z. Leonard as the candidate for Governor. The name of CoL Eli F. Ritter ■will be presented to the convention and he may be nominated. It is understood that the intention is to indorse these candidates upon the Republican ticket—Mitchell, Hammond and Hobbs. The Shiel convention will be held in English’s Operahouse, and only those to whom tickets have been issued will be admitted. Both conventions will meet at 10 o’clock this morning. Base Ball Matters. The Indianapolis club have engaged four players from the defunct Bay City club, viz: Collins, second baseman; Morrison, flelderr Watkins, third baseman, and Robinson, catcher. They will be here to-day, and will join the clnb at Toledo. It is thought that the club will be greatly strengthened by them. Constable Blake in Hard Look. Yesterday was a day of hard luck for Constable Blake. Proceedings were instituted during the morning to require him to furnish anew and acceptable bondsman in the place of John C. & Harrison, During the afternoon he did

He furnished the required bail and was released from custody. While on his way home he was arrested by Patrolmen Thrush and Butcher, on two warrants sworn out by Nannie Gilliland, one charging him with profanity and the other with assault and battery.

James Finn and James Loftus, two boys employed in Kingan’s pork-bouse, quarreled and fought last evening, over some trifling matter. Finn seized a butcher-knife, lying conveniently near, and stuck it into Loftus, just below the stomach, making a rather dangerous wound. However, the injury is not likely to result fatally, it is believed. Young Finn was arrested by Sergeant Quigley last night, an a charge of assault and battery with intent to kill, and was locked up at the stationhouse. o The Greenbackers. The State central committee of the National Greenback party held a meeting here yesterday, to fill vacancies on the State ticket. It was decided not to make a nomination for judge of the Supreme Court, which practically amounts to an indorsement of Judge Hammond. For Reporter of the Supreme Court a man from Adams county will probably bo selected, but none of the committee who could be found last night could tell his name.

The Art School Excursion. The Art School excursion will depart on next Monday afternoon, and the number of persons is limited to fifty.

Va., July 23. —This morning at 8 o’clock a terrific gas explosion took place at the German Bank. A small jet is kept burning in the vault all the time. Last evening at 5 o’clock a big explosion occurred at the corner of market and Twelfth streets, where amain was being laid, and it was necessary to shot the gas off from the city at the works for a short time. In this way gas escaped in the vault all night. This morning, the chief clerk, John Hell, struck a match as soon as ho opened the doors, seeing that the jet was not burning, and failing to detect the odor. A tremendous explosion followed. Heil was blown half way across the room, and the entire glass front of the building was blown into fragments. Heil was badly burned about the head and arms, but will probably recover.

lowa Distillers and Their Whisky. Detboit, July 23.—The lowa State prohibition law; which went into effect recently, caught, a good many of the distillers there with large quantities of whisky on thejv hands. A provision of the law prohibited the shipment of liquor to any other State, and, in order to eventually get it into market, the owners were compelled to export it. For several days they have been shipping it to Windsor at the rate of two car-loads per day. The liqpor is kept in the cars, but is virtually in bond, and will remain there until arrangements can be made to re-ex-port it to New York. The collector requires all those exporting to execute a bond for the amount of duty, so as to indemnify the government in case the whisky shquid be sold in Canada. A Pittsburg Girl’s Frightful Experience. Pittsbueg, July 23. —Last Sunday evening Lizzie Bradley, while suffering from mental depression, disappeared from home, and all efforts to find her proved fruitless until last evening, when she was traced to a fishing camp up the Monongahela river, where she was found more dead than alive. Her body was covered with wounds, and she was unconscipus. Jewelry worth SSOO, in her possession when she left home, was missing. The young' man in criarge of the camp fled when discovered, but was arrested this morning. Physicians entertain but slight hopes of the girl’s recovery. Have your shirts made at Parker’s.
