(irrAtrst Strength Shown by Stone,
Who Lfaili Hardin by a Safe Mar*
gin, Goebel Uringing Up Hear, With
No Prospect of uu Karly Choice.
Louisville, June 27.—The belliger
ency of the delegates to the state Dem
ocratic convention, to all appearances,
passed with the night. Chairman Red-
wine this morning ordered the first bal
lot for governor without arousing a
word of protest. It proceeded in a hum
drnm way, the three candidates divid
ing the vote just about as they have
from the start.
Conferences between the Stone and
Hardin managers lasted nutil late in
the night without bringing them nearer
to an agreement. They have nothing
in common save opposition to Goebel
and that cruse does not appeal strongly
enough to their followers to bring about
A working agreement.
The whol* contest still swings around
the imperturbable Kenton county man,
who has from the start played his hand
boldly and skilfully aud has not lost a
trick. The drift of the Hardiu-Stoue
coalition is strongly toward Hardin in
preference to Stone, but there is no sign
yet that it can be made effective.
The first ballot this morning, the
fourteenth since voting began, resulted
Stone, 278; Hardin. 358; Goebel, 350.
The fifteenth ballot resulted:
Stone, 380; Hardin, 358; Goebel, 354.
Sixteenth ballot:
Stone, 385; Hardin. 358; Goebel, 340.
The seventeenth ballot:
Stone. 373; Hardin, 304; Goebel, 355.
The eighteenth ballot:
Stone, 374; Hardin, 360; Goebel, 362.
The nineteenth ballot:
Stone, 374; Hardin, 300; Goebel, 852.
The balloting proceeded monotonously
without any change in tho strength of
any candidate until 1 o'clock, when a
motion to adjourn until 3 o'clock was
made by the Goebel people anti carried.

A SERTION FOR :iEN.
The man who earns his living with his
brains cannot afford to neglect his body.
The body is the furnace and boiler that
furnishes steam to the brain. If the fur
nace is permitted to get clogged with clink
ers, the boiler will make no steam, aud the
delicate machinery
the brain will sb
down and come to a
dead stop.
When a man finds
that his ideas do not
come as freely as
they once did,
needn’t worry
about his men
tal machinery.

of the North American Saengerbnnd
there were again thousands of visitors
marching from the depot today. The
numerous relays of the large reception
committee had difficulty in escorting

is the largest attendance of visitors that
was ever known on any occasion in this
city.
The rehearsals were continued this

were engaged iu singing at the various
quarters and in renuious. There were
many impromptu concerts ln different
S irts of the city and at the gardens.

dezvous on the arrival of societies and
delegations Here heavily laden tables
and beverages awuit the visitors.
Tomorrow morning the newspaper
men will give a burlesquo parade. To
day there are all sorts of parades and
serenades, while the local societies and
committees are being escorted from the
depots and abont the city, but the pa
rade tomorrow promises to be an excep
tionally nnique affair.
Immediately after the rehearsal to
morrow morning, the United German
societies of Indianapolis will give their
"Frobs Cboppen” at the Great Jnbilee
balL The officers and directors of the
North American Saengerbnnd and the
Cincinnati festival committees and mu
sical sc .ietles and other visiting- socie

one of the most noted events outside of
the regular program events. All other
state and interstate organizations hold
similar meetings during the wesk.
At the opening concert tonight there
were addresses of welcome by Mayor
Tafel and President B Bcttmana of the

Being Run Over by u Train.
Charlotte. N. C., Jnno 27.—One of
the most remarkable instances of vital
ity ever recorded took placo hore in the
caso of William Parsons, who, while
trying to mount the Southern’s south
bound vestibule train between thb bag-
tago car and the engine tender, lost his
told and fell between the tracks The
wheels of the baggage car ent his body
in twain and tbe entire train ran over
him.
The two parts of tho body were car
ried into tbe baggage car reparately.
The wounded mutt was not bleeding to
any appreciable extent and be was per
fectly rational. He was 111 great agony
and at tintca begged those on the train
to kill him.
Tho accident occurred at Bethel, a
little station uu hour and a half ran
from Charlotte. Parsons was still alive
when the train reached this place. Dr.
It. L. Gibbon, the .Southern’s surgeon,
met him at the depot. The two parts
of tlte uiuu were placed together on a
cot. He asked that be he allowed to
dio in the open air, sayiug that he knew
hia itijuriea were fatal. He told bow
he aud another boy bad started from
their couutry home iu Caldwell couuty
to enlist in tbe army.
His conversation was perfectly ra
tional up to within two minutes of the
time he died. Snfgpona here >ay this
is the ouly instance on record of a man
whose body was completely severed

scious for any length of time.

On Attempting to Have Tbslr Claim
Recorded They Were Arrrstsd and
Bent to New Orleans on the Steam
ship Breakwater.
New Orleans, June 27.—John B.
Richards and W. H. Harris, wbo were
ejected from Guatemala by tbe govern
ment of that country nnder peculiarly
aggravating circumstances, reached
New Orleans on the steamship Break
water last night. The men, both of
whom are American citizens, discov
ered a gold mine in tbe province of Za-
caps, where they washed out $17 worth
of gold in on* boar, Tbay went to Za-
oapa, tbe capital of the province, to
have their olalm recorded and a day
after their arrival were warned by th*
authorities tbst they most leave the
country.
Idatead they went back to their claim,
where on Jnne 10 troops were sent for
their apprehension. Richards was ar-
rssted, Harris esoaping, and taksn to
Zacapa, where be was thrown ln a filthy
prison with 88 oaptives. He wired Min
uter Hnntar and told him that ha had
been arrested without any cause what
ever, asking that he be secured a fair
trial and stating that he wanted to go
to trial. Minister Hunter answered tne
telegram as follows:
“I have received your telegram of
yesterday, relative to yonr order of ex
pulsion. Tbs authorities claim to have
proof to justify the order.”
On the seoond day after his arrsat,
Rlohards was taken to the train at the
end-of a rope and carried to Port Bar
rio* nnder gnard. At Port Barrios he
woe immediately imprisoned for two
days without food. There he was loaded
upon tbs Breakwater and his fare paid
to this country. He found Harris upon
the tame ship.
Richards and Harris are indignant
over their treatment and propose to
bring the facts to the attention of the
sotfaoritips at Washington. Richard*
has been in Central Amerloa for five or
six years. He represented the whisky
firm of J. F. 8. Brown & Co. of Louis
ville in Ooata Rica until six months ago,
when he seenrod a position with the
Guatemala Central railroad. While
working on a tin contract for that road
it is aaid he harbored tbe party of Amer
icans known ae tbe Kansas City fili
busters and in that way ha probably in
curred tho displeasure of the Guate
malan government.
