Hut All Other Cnndidate for Governor Are Combined Aftnhmt Ulm. CKDAR RAPIDS. Ia.. Aug. 7. I'rcspcts to-night are that it will be Albert U. Cummins against the lieid. for the nomination for Governor, In the Republican State convention which will mert here Wednesday. The fortunes of the field will bo in the hands of a rte-ering committee, composed of two representatives of each candidate for Governor, with the exception of Cummins. The determination of the can!i iates to m ike a common fight against Cummins was reached to'day. It was decided to force the contest first of all before the committee on credentials, where the opposition to Cummins hopes to take trom him twenty-six votes. It is admitted by both sides that the winner of the dight. on the report of the credentials committee on the lioor of the convention will name the next Republican candidate for Governor. The managers for the rield claim to have in opposition to Cummins ar. aggregate of 040 to l.'fj votes, and thrse they say, when handled solidly, will not only prevent the nomination of Cummins but will insure the choice of any other man who may be selected by the steering committee. It was d?ciueel by the conference this morning that if Cummins's faction triumphed on the floor of the convention in the tight over the report of the credentials committee, there should be a bolt to one candidate and the full strength of the opposition thrown to him. As the matter stands to-night Cummins has a long lead. He may be beaten out, but it will be dltiicult to down him. lnrli:ntl Ke-puhlieiinn. RALTIMORK, Md.. Aug. 5.

TROUBLE WITH TURKEY

FItACL IT IS SAID, MAY Sl"HED DIPLOMATIC .NEGOTIATIONS. Dispute Over the Rights of a French Company Indiscreet Brit. . I Ducked ! YanLee Hoys. PARIS. Aug. 5. The Foreign O.Tce here refust-j either to confirm or deny the advices from Constantinople saying the French ambassador there. M. Cor.stans, has handed over the question of the right of a French company, known as the Quays Company, to enjoy rights claimed under a convention to his government, at the same time recommending his own recall, and that the passports of the Turkish ambaador at Paris, Salih Munir Bey. be delivered to him. Tiie Temps says there is reason to believe the Foreign Office is considering the recall of M. Constars and giving the Turkish ambassadjr his passports. The Franca Is thinks that instead of breaking diplomatic rtlatton., with Turkey the French Foreign Office will sj spend them by giving M. Constan? unlimited leave of absence. An Immediate decision is improbable, as M. Drlcasie. the French foreign minister, and other high Foreign Office officials are absent cn their holidays. Dt'CKFJ) 11 Y AMERICAN BOYS.

LONDON. Aug. ". The House of Lords to-day rendered an important judgment affecting trades vnion3. The case was brought up on appeal from the judgment of the Irish courts awarding a wholesale butcher damages against the Butchers' Assistants' Association, which brought pressure to bear on retailers to boycott the plaintiff until he dismissed a certain nonunion employe, threatening, otherwise, to call out the union employes of the firms concerned, and finally Induced the nonunionists to leave the plaintiff. The lords dismissed the appeal on the ground that the alleged acts of wrongful and malicious conspiracy we re not undertaken to advance the interests of the workmen themselves, but solely to injure the plaintiff.
