Adair, of Portland, was elected district chairman, but prior to noon It was not known that he was a candidate. II. Eichhorn, of this city, was an announced candidate, but Madison county charged him with defeating Netterville, of Anderson, in l$fS and trying to defeat Campbell In 1!"0. Campbell came to Rluffton and combined with Randolph and Jay counties on Adair and called the convention to order at 11 o'clock, though the time set was 1 o'clock. Taking control of the convention, they elected Adair by slx-ty-elht votes to Eichhorn's flfty-nlne and left Rluffton before two-thirds of the delegates had arrived. The delegation from Adams county came In an hour after the election was made. Roth Campbell and Eichhorn threaten to carry the fight into the state chairmanship, and leaders like Ellingham of Decatur, Itz of Muncle and Dougherty fear that Steve Fleming, of Fort Wayne, will find a fight on his hands. A dispatch to the Journal from Portland pays: "The selection of J. A. M. Adair, of this city, as committeeman for the Eighth district at Rluffton this afternoon caused much surprise here, as it was not known that he was a candidate. Portland had a candidate in I S.

was a candidate and received 57 votes to Llvengood's 67. Sem tor Johnson, of Montgomery, was chairman of the convention and Bayard Gray secretary. Capt. D. F. Allen made a brief speech in which he attributed the party's defeat in l: to treacherous leadership. It is generally believed that the captain's "dig" was intended for ex-Chairman Neal. who sat on the stage. Later Mr. Neal introduced a resolution indorsing Captain Allen for secretary of state, evidently to convince the captain that the shot had fallen short of the mark. There were no other resolutions introduced, and, aside from the charge of treacherous leadership, no explanation of the party's late defeat was attempted by the speakers. Bryan's name was not once mentioned. Small Crovril In the Tenth. Social to the Ini ianapclis Jcurnal. LAFAYETTE. Ind.. Jan. 2. Twenty delegates from the Tenth congressional district met In the Jackson Club rooms, in this city, this morning, to elect a district chairman and a member of the state central committee. Tippecanoe county alone should have had twenty-three , delegates and the district 118, according to the apportionment. The meeting was very quiet and the spirit lukewarm. An effort was made to convene at 10 o'clock in the morning, but the gathering had to b put off until afternoon. Edwin J. Forrest, of Hammond, the retiring chairman, let his gavel fall at 1 o'clock. Dan Simrns. of this city, was nominated and elected district chairman, before any opposition could develop. He persistently declined the honor until the last moment, when he delivered himself Into the hands of his friends and was declared the nominee. Mr. Simms. in a recent interview In an Indianapolis paper, said he believed that the Democrats of Indiana did not need reorganization as much as organization; that the workers in the party should have the rewards. That is taken to Indicate that he Is a Bryan man and wants such a man for state chairman.
Flemiiitc .11 an in the Eleventh. Social to the Indianapolis Journal. WABASH, Ind.. Jan. 2. Little interest was manifested in the Eleventh district Democratic convention to select a. member of the state committee, held here this afternoon. Benjamin Touthain, of the Logansport Pharos, was elected chairman and Edward Cox. of the Hartford City Telegram, secretary. But one candidate for committeeman was offered. J. Fred France, of Huntington, who was chosen by acclamation. After the adoption of stereotyped resolutions the convention adjourned. Mr. France is said to be for Stephen Fleming, of Fort Wayne, for state chairman. FI em 1 11 k Succeed in the Twelfth. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. FORT WAYNE. Ind., Jan. 2. State Senator Stephen B. Fleming was elected member of the Democratic committee hero today. William Kaough, retiring committeeman from the Twelfth district, had been beaten in the primaries and did not allow his name to go before the convention. Senator Fleming was therefore elected without opposition. He told the convention he wanted to be the district committeeman In order to make sure his election as chairman of the state committee. Ho has the backing of the Morss-Murdock-Tagsart crowd. Senator Fleming's chief business interest in this city is the Berghoff brewery. Thirteenth District. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SOUTH BEND, Ind., Jan. 2.-C. B. Fletcher has been elected chairman of the Thirteenth district Democracy and member of the state central committee. DOCTRINES OF DEMOCRACY Expounded Iy Many Leading? LiRUtn at the Colanthn .Meeting. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. COLUMBUS. Ind., Jan. 2. To-night at the City Hall the delegates to the Democratic district meeting, which was held here during the afternoon, were tendered a banquet by the local Democracy under the auspices of the ladies of a local church. The price per plate was $1, and about two hundred attended. Maj. P. E. Wills, the wine grower of Ellzabethtown, thought to stampede the Democratic hosts of the Fourth district to the exclusive u?e of wine and gave two hundred bottles of his choicest vintage to that end. Another local wine grower, Dore Ogdon, not to be outdone by his Democratic competitor, also gave a like number of bottle from his wine cellars, and consequently the liquid end of the banquet was not the least prominent feature. Mayor George W. Caldwell, of this city, presided as toastmaster. Senator Joseph H. Shea responded to the toast "The Monroe Doctrine." Mr. Shea took occasion to criticise President Roosevelt and the present administration on account of the present Interpretation of the doctrine. He compared the attitude of the administration now with that of the Cleveland administration during the Venezuelan controversy and Incidentally paid a high compliment to Richard Olney, theft a member of the Cleveland Cabinet. Nicholas Cornett spoke on "Party Organization." I. H. McCormick, of this city, jjpoke on "The Business Man In Politics." Mr. McCormick thought the business man had as much light In politics as anybody. John Overmyer had for his subject "Jacksonian Democracy." He spoke of the long Itase of power of the early Democracy, from 1S2S to its final overthrow in I860, and ascribed the same to those fundamental principles of liberty and Justice which Jefferson caused to be set forth in the national Constitution. The Hon. Francis Marlon Griffith's subject was "Our Congress." In a general way he spoke of the prospective legislation of the present Congress. He said the session promised to be a. most buy one. He believes the present Congress will build or inaugurate the building of an isthmian canal and thinks the Nicaraguan route the more feasible. The money question was not touched upon by any of the speakers. PERISHED IN A HOTEL. Mm. Iinllnek nnd Two Small Children Bnrned-Girl Fatally Injured. SEARCHLIGHT, New. Jan. 2.

A freight engine just out of the repair shop and tired up in the roundhouse of the Central Railroad of Georgia exploded without warning to-day, killing three men. injuring many others and shaking the entire city. The report was heard seven miles, and houses three miles distant felt the shock. The news instantly spread that many were killed, and in a few minutes hundreds had gathered at the gates, among them wives and children of shop employes, weeping and clamoring for information. The dead: E. W. HODGES, machinist. J. M'DONALD. machinist; relatives live in Knoxvllle, Tenn. URIAH CORNELIUS, colored, helper. The injured are: J. J.

The negro Cornelius was In the cab assisting the inspector, J. M. McDonald, who was on top of the engine. Both were blown to atoms. The others were at some distance from the engine. The cause of the accident is not known. It is supposed, however, that the negro had found the water in the boiler too low and had suddenly injected a stream of cold water on the redhot crownsheet. The engine was reduced to fragments, parts being hurled through the building two or three hundred yards. One piece weighing 3,000 pounds was thrown 150 yards. Siv 3Ien Hart hy a Fly Wheel.

(CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) unite lu such an expression. We do not want the matter made a party question or embarrass the United States In any way. I believe the English people would welcome an Interference sufficient to cause the authorities to drop the war. We are willing to make some concessions." Von Hollehen'a Act of Courtesy. WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. A misunderstanding, which is particularly annoying to the officials who were at tho White House reception yesterday, appears to have arisen from the fact that Lady Pauncefote, the wife of the British ambassador, with the embassy staff, held the place of honor at the head of the diplomatic line as the reception began. The rule in such cases is quite clear, and well established in precedents; namely, that the ambassador present longest in continuous service at the capital shall head the line. It was through an act of gallantry, and graciousness on the part of the German ambassador himself that this rule was not applied yesterday. Iady Pauncefote informed the German ambassador of her husband's illness, and of her recognition of the fact that he, Herr Von Holleben, was. for the day. dean of the diplomatic body. The ambassador declined, however, to take advantage of his fosition and himself assigned to Lady 'auncefote the place she occupied at the head of the line with the embassy staff. Spain! Plan to Secure Gold. WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. With a view to reducing the high premium on gold and foreign currencies, Spain has enacted a law which went into operation Dec. 1, whereby the customs duty on certain imports into Spain Is to be paid In gold. Consul General Lay, at Barcelona, in reporting the matter to the State Department, says that one of the causes of the high rate of exchange in Spain, apart from the unfavorable linancial situation of the country, undoubtedly is the necessity periodically to obtain gold drafts to meet its liabilities in foreign markets. It Is claimed for the new fccheme that It will enable the treasury to secure gold or foreign drafts from the merchants instead of being obliged, as hitherto, to apply directly to the bankers, who were able to control to a considerable extent the rate of exchange and to profit thereby. Personally Tendered III Resignation. WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. David A. Nunn, whose resignation as collector of Internal revenue of the Fifth Tennessee district was called for by the President a few days ago, to-day presented hU resignation to the President in person. He was accompanied to the White House by Representative Gibson, of Tennessee. Mr. Nunn was appointed collector at the beginning of the McKinley administration. Soon after he was installed the removal of som Democratic employes led to charges of violation of the civil-service law.

Jan. 2.-From various expressions of opinion heard at the Clvilsorvice Commission, it Is considered unlikely that the two thousand or more extra clerks taken into the executive departments t!urim; the war with Spain can be trans-
ferred to the classified service without special enactment by Congress.

Lord Pouncefote, whose indisposition prevented his attendance at the White House reception yesterday, was so much improved to-day as to be able to be down stairs. The ambassador has been troubled for some time with rheumatisic gout which took a rather acute turn a few days ago, confining him to his room. There Is every prospect that he will be restored soon to his usual vigor. Admiral Sampson Slowly Hying;. WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.

At today's meeting of the society it was proclaimed as an established fact that water is in itself an agent deadly to many kinds of germs and that milk also has destructive attributes within itself. The Information was brought out by Prof. II. L. Russell, of the University of Wisconsin, who read a paper on 'The Toxicity of Water Toward Certain Pathogenic Bacteria." Prof. Russell described the results of experiments which proved to his satisfaction that toward some forms of germ life water acts as a poison. He said also that the consequence of the suicide of the bacteria in water Is the purification of the water. The waste substances thrown off by the life processes of the germs form, when in solution, poisons which destroy the germs that produced them. Prof. Sedgwick disagreed with Prof. Russell, but the latter was upheld by Dr. Jordan, of the University of Chicago. An interesting point in regard to heredity was brought up before the morphologists. E. B. Meek and F. W. Lutz in a paper on the "Inheritance of Color in .Pointers," proved that the markings of dogs could be traced to their ancestors with mathematical exactness one-half inherited from the parents, one-fourth from the grandparents one-eighth from the great-grandparents, etc. The convention ended to-night. The next convention will be held at Washington, D. C. Examination of a Brain. CHICAGO, Jan. 2. Sliced into minute flecks and mounted on glass slides, the late Frank Collier's brain is being subjected to the searching sight of a microscope under the trained eye of a nerve pathologist, Dr. Thor Rothstein, of the University of Chicago. The first discovery of Importance was made to-day, when the doctor announced that he had found some peculiar degeneration of the brain cells of the once brilliant attorney. As a result of the discovery It is said that the theory that Frank Collier's insanity was due to a blow on the head may have to be altered substantially. The brain haä been in process of preparation for the microscope tor some time, and it is expected that the study of tho cells will not be completed for some two months. Crolßoci's Drain "Was Normal.; CHICAGO, Jan. 2. At to-day's meeting of the American Anatomical Society a paper by Dr. A. F. Spltzka, of New York, was read by the secretary, and in It the doctor declared that the brain of Leon Czolgocz, President McKinley's murderer, was normal. The doctor said that during the four hours' dissection which followed the execution of the criminal he had been able to study the brain with considerable thoroughness. UNIVERSITY LECTURES. Six Cities Have Benefit of Conrse on Modern Social Problems. Mr. Raymond Fuller is in the city representing the University of Chicago in a work which is interesting many citizens. The plan is a vjirlatlon from the regular university extension lecture-study system which is familiar to the citizens of Indianapolis. It contemplates the delivery of a course of twelve lectures on modern social problems by representatives of six of the leading universities of the country. The course has been arranged with special reference to the desires and needs of men, though it will not be without interest and value to all thoughtful persons. The lecturers who have accepted the invitation of the University of Chicago to participate in this course are: Prof. 11. C. Adams, University of Michigan; Prof. S. M. Lindsay, University of Pennsylvania; Prof. 11. 11. Powers, Cornell University; Prof. E. A. Ross, University of Nebraska; Dr. Ira AV. Howerth, University of Chicago; Prof. Walter A. Wyckoff, Princeton University; Prof. Albion W. Small, University of Chicago. The list of subjects selected is as follows: "The Social Question of To-day," "The Economic Foundations of Society," "Elements of the Social Ideal," "The Social Effects of Machinery," "Social Waste," "Problems of Taxation," "Wealth and Wants," "The Social Effects of Charity," Competition and Co-operation," "The Ethics of Business." "Social Evolution," "The New Social Method." This provides for a course of twelve lectures to be given at weekly intervals, of which number Dr. Howerth will deliver the first and each alternate lecture thereafter. The other lecturers 'will alternate with Dr. Howerth. This will provide for a unified and coherent course, and at the same time secure different methods of presentation of these Important social and economic problems by eminent specialists who have studied them from different points of view. The cities which have been selected to form this circut are Cincinnati, Columbus, Cleveland, Detroit, Indianapolis and Milwaukee. The work is already under way In the other cities and a large membership Is assured. Before beginning the course, the University of Chicago must be assured of at least l,5o0 members, and it is believed there will be no difficulty in securing her pro rata share in Indianapolis. The membership ticket. $5, admits two persons to each lecture. A special syllabus Is supplied to each member, and bi-weekly notices of the dates and titles of the lectures will be mailed to those who connect themselves with the local center. STATE LIFE BANQUET.
