DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION TO MEET JULY 7.

This conclusion was reached by the committee in session at Washington after twenty-nine ballots had been taken and the struggle had gone on until well toward midnight. Starting in with’ but six votes. Chicago steadily gained in favor until she won the prize. At one time the number of votes cast for her was but four. Nevertheless her fitaess in location won the fight for ’her. "It was a pure question of geography," said one of the most prominent .Eastern Democrats and a member

of the committee. There was no bluster, no buncombe speech-making, no noise of ■ny sort in favor of Chicago, says a Washington correspondent. She won the . fight purely merits, and after the individual prejudices of the members in favor of other cities had given way. Th? detailed vote on tile-final ballot by States was: CH ago—Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Illinois. Indiana. lowa. Kentucky. Maine. ■Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota.

WHERE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION WILL BE HELD JULY 7.

St. Louis —Alabama, Arkansas, California; Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana. Nevada, New Jersey, North Dakota, South Carolina. Texas, Utah, Virginia, Wurfliington, Wyoming,Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Indian iterritory. < 'inrinnati—Ohio. Chicago was voted for on the final round by all the distinguished Democrats upon the committee. Chirk Howell. Senator Gorman, Josiah Quincy of Massa chusetts, William F. Sheehan of New York, William F, Harrity of Pennsylvania. Bradley B. Smalley of Vermont, E. C. Wall of Wisconsin and others proniisiciit in national.or State affairs, all voted for Chicago. The understanding is that the Chicago delegation will be expected to have a certified check for $40,000 ready for the executive committee when it arrives in Chicago three weeks hence. This will be turned over to the committee, with the keys to the convention hall, and then the Chicago delegation will step down and out and leave the entire management of the convention in the hanJ> .yf the national committee. There, is to be no j appointing of ser-geant-at-arms or other officers by the Chicago ]>eople, and no claim for large num--I>ers of tickets with' which the convention ■hall can be packed. Everything .is to be left absolutely to the.national committee. It is expected that that committee will allot a certain number of tickets to the Chicago people, but how many or upon what terms has not been decided. The Chicago delegation was quite willing to leave that matter in the hands of the national committee, content with getting the national convention and preferring to place the responsibility for its management iu the hands of that organization, and thus avoid any criticism as to mismanagement, such as has been made with reference to i former Democratic convention held in that city. After the location had been decided upon the commiHee promptly took up. the question of the date for holding the convention, and the issue was soon sharply defined by two motions, one to hold it June 2 and another that it be held July T. The vote resultc® 32 to 18 in favor of July 7. . Can Handle the Crowd. .Chicagoans claim that no other city in tiie country can furnish anything like the facilities for handling the crowds that ■company a national convention ds well as can Chicago. To obtain hotel accommodations it will not be necessary for -isitors to-sleep on' cots in hallways 7. or lu ;*h»ira in reading and smoking rooms; ■nd <he transportation facilities from the center of,the city to the likely convention hall are ample. According to thp following table forty-three hotels are ready to accommodate oter 15,000 guests, besides taking care of their regular patrons: Alabama Hotel ~ 150 Atlantic.......

Graceful Backdown Projected in the Venezuelan Matter. Aside from the leisurely manner in which the Venezuelan commission is arranging to prosecute its work, there are other indications, says a Washington corres|H>ndeiit, that the administration has become convinced that this august body will not have the honor of settling the great boundary dispute. While it cannot be stptqd positively that this belief is based entirely upon any specific reports from Ambassador Bayard upon the subject, yett here is reason to believe some assurances of a satisfactory nature have eomty-toThe State Department that the matter will In' terminated shortly. probably within two,months, or before a report can reasonably be expected from the Venezuelan commission, and upon lines that will be unobjectionable to our government.

consistency. This is likely to be found in an agreement between Great Britain and Venezuela directly, brought about through the good offices of a third party, not nesessarily or probably the United States, to submit to a joint commission the question of the title to all territory west of the Schomburgk line, with a proviso that if in the course of the inquiry of the commission evidence appears to touch the British title to ‘he lands lying to tiie eastward of that line the body may extend fts functions to adjudicate such title. This arrangement will meet the British contention that the original arbitration shall be'liiuited to lands to the westward of the line','while.still conceding the justice of the contention of President Cleveland that the lands qrtt the ofher side may properly be taken into consideration in fixing the boundary; Possibly a supplementary arbitration will be left to deaiwith the question as to the title of the eastward lands, if the original commission dealing with the matter shall find that the title to the lands is a tit subject for arbitration as shown by the evidence produced before it.

They Were Too Late.

The belatdd wayfarer was standing In the shadtfw of a building, with both hands pointing heavenward, while he gazed initogtlie muzzle of a revolver. One footpad was holding the revolver where it would do the most good in case of an emergency, and the other was going through the victim's pockets. The silence was so oppressive that the belated wayfarer finally felt obliged to speak. “Think you’i'e smart, don’t you?” he said. “We know our business,” rturned one of the footpads, gruffly. “Of course, you do,” said the belated wayfare with something like a sneer. “You know that this is my pay day, I suppose.” “Sure,” replied the footpad. “That's why we laid for you.” “He ain’t got but 65 cents, Bill,” interrupted the one who had been searching the victim’s pockets. “Wot!”Tried the other. “That’s right,” said the belated wayfarer, cheerfully. “But yoe was paid to-day,” insisted the man with the revolver. “Right again,” adiuittedjbfi- belated in tEe same cheerful tone. “But .somebody got in ahead of you, and you thought you were so all-flred smart that I’ll .be hanged if I'm not glad of it.” “Sofflebody got you r roll ?” *; '> : “Yep.” ■ ” ' j “Who?” “My wife camo to the office after it this afternoon.

A man was recently tried for stealing a watch from a lady in an omnibus. The man declared that the watch was his and the woman was mistaken in Identifying it as hers. Suddenly the magistrate asked: “Where’s the key ?” The prisoner fumbled in his pockets and said he must have left it at home. TLe magistrate asked him if he wouii 1 the watch frequently with the key. and he said: “Yes.” • 7’hou a key was procured, watch and key were and he was told to wind the watch. He opened the case, but could not find any place to use tlfe key. 11 was a keyless watch! He was committed for trial.—London Amusing Journal.
