Ct.KVBi.AWD, July 23.—The1 Ohio Democratic convention is over, and the result is I'ot a surprise either to the Democrats or the Republicans. The Cuyahoga county boom for Koran and the Hamilton county boom for Campbell were knocked endways on the second ballot, when Powell received the nomination for governor. The Cincinnati men were here working hard for Campbell, and the Cuyahoga delegation nurse 1 their little boomlet for Foran in the highest style of the politicians' art. Vomn was pushed forward aa a special inducement for tho laboring element, and his chances up to the time he openoJ his mouth were good, but just as soon as he gave bis views on tho tariff, and ono thing and another, the delegates who were favorably inclined to bim went over to Powell or Campbell, and when the result of the first ballot was made known Foran's friends realized that his chanccs for nomination had dwindled down to nothing, for be received only 80 votes, while Campbell had 251 and Powell 321, lacking but 9 of nomination. London, July 22,—Col. Frederick Strauch, president of the African International aaociatlon, telegraphs to the United Press representative, from Brussels, stating that be has not received the news of Stanley having been killed. Stanley, he states, left Arnwiml July 8 for Wadelai. BIQ FIRE AT BUFFALO. Two years ago Rev. F. F. Ford died In Madison, leaving a large estate, mostly lying in City. Many yoars ago, in New York, he married a girl who in one year deserted him. He then moved to Indiana, and at the end of seven years procured a divorce there. He then returned to New York, and seven years still later married the young woman who now claims to be his only lawful wife. Ford's brother, who souks to obtain a slice of the estate, claims that the Indiana divorce was not valid in Now York, hence the widow living in Madison is not the lawful widow.

Buffalo, July 22.—About 12:30 o'clock this afternoon a fire broke out in Ziegele's brewery, on the southeast corner of Main and Virginia streets, that at one time bade fair to assume Immense proportions, bat which, fortunately, was confined in reasonable boundt The report of the death of Mr Henry M. Stanley created an enormous sensation here. The men were at work upon the up track. At T:17 they beard the slow going milk train lumbering along on its way up from Jersey City. They had plenty of time to get out m its way, and stood on the down track waiting for It to pasa It had almost reached them when the fast Chicago expiess, an hour late, dashed down upon them. The man gave one shriek of terror and then they were under the iron wheels. The pilot of the flying engine picked them up and tossed them high into the air, under the milk train, and back upon the track, where they were ground into fragments. Borne fell down the embankment and *acaped disfiguration. Others were torn under one wheel and then under another until pieces of their bleeding flesh oould be traced for rods along the track. One poor fellow, who saw the express, leaped wildly over the westbound track and landed directly in front of the engine of the milk train, which picked him up and threw him back on the pilot of the express* from which he rolled and was ground to atoms.' Many of the men sprang Into the space between the tracks and were knocked about from one side to the other like chaff. Another who sought refuge here had his lag broken by being thrown violently on the pile of broken stones on which they were standing. The express was going so fast that, although the epgineer reversed his engine and put on the brakes so bard that most of the passengers were brought up standing, the train ran to Hohoku* station before it could be stopped. It ran back to the scene of the accident It was a sickening sight Pieces of human flesh were scattered all along the track. In one place was a head, entirely severed from the trunk, and bowled along the track like a football. Legs, arms, clots of brains, shreds of bloody clothing, lay In every direction. A great pool of blood, from which a little stream was already running down the embankment, nuuked where the men had stood. Those who had escaped unhurt were running up and down, shrieking and waving their arms in a frenzy of terror. Some were actually cnizod by their horror and ran howling into the woods.

All of the newspapers aooompanled the dispatches announcing the event with voluminous obituary notices and sketches of his expeditions. His rssooa of Dr. Livingstone is dilated upon with great precision in detail, and the eminent services of the supposed dead explorer are recounted at length and in laudatory language. In spite of all these elaborate tributes to the famous traveler and author, however, the reports of his death are discredited by the papers publishing them, and even the West African Telegraph company, through whose agency the news was brought, is unable to verify the statements. A variety of theories is advanced to account for the report, but none of them has even as plausible a foundation as the rumor Itself. The one most generally accepted, however, is that the native who brought the news to Matadi reported that a "white chief" had been killed, and that the missionary who forwarded the rumor assumed that the "white chief' was Mr. Stanley. StUl, it is strange that no one engaged In manufacturing theories to refute the probability that the missionary was right in assunllng that the report of Mr. Stanley's death was correct has ventured to presume that the story of his having left Aruwiml on June 2 or 8 can have been untrue. Telegraphic mistakes are The flre originated in the upper floor of the ice house, the lower portion of which was unoccupied, as the brewery used the ammonia process of cooling. The flames bunt through the roof, and in an inoredihly short space of time spread to the main brewery building on the south, and to the street car barns, across Virginia street, on the north. The hay and straw stored In the barns added fresh fury to the flames, and the first car barn building, in which the horses were stabled and where the waiting rooms and starter's office were located, were speedily gutted, not, however, before, tho horses, 390 in number, were gotten oat in safety. The second building where the cars were stored also caught, bat through the exertions of the firemen was damaged but little. | Ziegele's brewery was almost completely destroyed, but the great elevator and storehouse on Washington street were guarded by numerous streams of water and escaped, as did also the large stables belonging to the brewery. The total loss is estimated at about 9140,000, divided as follows: Ziegele's brewery, 1100,000; street oar company's barns, 130,000, and minor losses about (10,000. FaoMo Railroad Investigation. Salt Lakc Citt, July 22.—At yesterday's session of the Pacific railroad Investigating commission, Percy B. Shelby, of the Union Pacific, In answer to questions, said that he had given special rates or rebates when other roads were doing so in order to get business. He had attended stssions of the Nebraska legislature to explain to members particular features of pending railroad legislation, but had not ussd any other means than explanation and argument to influence a vote in his favor. He said that it was customary for railroads to give passes to members of the legislature and his road had done the same. John Sharp, of the Utah Central, George Wallace, of Salt Lake, and some citizens and mine owners were also examined as to rebates and special rates Niw Tom, July 23.—W. E.

Detroit, Mich., July 83.—It is estimated that 10,000 people attended the races yesterday. The weather was all that could be desired and the races were for blood. Joe L. took first and Duplex second money In the 3:21 pace. The great event of the day was the special race between Harry Wilkes and Pacer Johnston to a wagon for a purse of $5,000. It required five heats to decide this race, Johnston taking the first and WOkes the three last Best time, The first race on the programme was the 8:33 trot, purse $3,000.

L Kiessewoltor, the present incumbent, was proposed for state auditor. Here McBride made another exhibition of himself, and when it was proposed to nominate him by acclamation he mounted a chair and brought the curses of hundreds of delegates down on his houd by declaring with great emphasis that if Klosse wetter was nominated In that way be would take the stomp against him.

Sixty-five thousand bushels of grain in the elevators in the rear of the malt house were burned, and a large brick building on Jefferson street, used as a dry kiln, adjoining the elevator, burned like a tinder box inside, and nothing but a portion of the walls remained. The total loss is estimated at about $80,000, of which (30,000 is on buildings. Several firemen were badly Injured. Another Disastrous Fire.

A Fireman's Negligence. Tamaqua, Pa., July 32.—The night passenger train on the Beading railroad was wrecked yesterday morning at DrehersvUle, twelve miles south of this station. The fireman and engineer leaped from the cab, after the latter had reversed the engine, and escaped with a few bruises. A lady passenger was severely injured. No one else was hurt. Engineer Cobb was appointed recently, and he trusted to his fireman to tell him the position of a certain siding where he had been ordered to let the southbound coal train pass him.

The Cincinnati men were here working hard for Campbell, and the Cuyahoga delegation nurse 1 their little boomlet for Foran in the highest style of the politicians' art. Vomn was pushed forward aa a special inducement for tho laboring element, and his chances up to the time he openoJ his mouth were good, but just as soon as he gave bis views on tho tariff, and ono thing and another, the delegates who were favorably inclined to bim went over to Powell or Campbell, and when the result of the first ballot was made known Foran's friends realized that his chanccs for nomination had dwindled down to nothing, for be received only 80 votes, while Campbell had 251 and Powell 321, lacking but 9 of nomination.

Many yoars ago, in New York, he married a girl who in one year deserted him. He then moved to Indiana, and at the end of seven years procured a divorce there. He then returned to New York, and seven years still later married the young woman who now claims to be his only lawful wife. Ford's brother, who souks to obtain a slice of the estate, claims that the Indiana divorce was not valid in Now York, hence the widow living in Madison is not the lawful widow.

Buffalo, July 22.—About 12:30 o'clock this afternoon a fire broke out in Ziegele's brewery, on the southeast corner of Main and Virginia streets, that at one time bade fair to assume Immense proportions, bat which, fortunately, was confined in reasonable boundt The report of the death of Mr Henry M. Stanley created an enormous sensation here. The men were at work upon the up track. At T:17 they beard the slow going milk train lumbering along on its way up from Jersey City. They had plenty of time to get out m its way, and stood on the down track waiting for It to pasa It had almost reached them when the fast Chicago expiess, an hour late, dashed down upon them. The man gave one shriek of terror and then they were under the iron wheels. The pilot of the flying engine picked them up and tossed them high into the air, under the milk train, and back upon the track, where they were ground into fragments. Borne fell down the embankment and *acaped disfiguration. Others were torn under one wheel and then under another until pieces of their bleeding flesh oould be traced for rods along the track. One poor fellow, who saw the express, leaped wildly over the westbound track and landed directly in front of the engine of the milk train, which picked him up and threw him back on the pilot of the express* from which he rolled and was ground to atoms.' Many of the men sprang Into the space between the tracks and were knocked about from one side to the other like chaff. Another who sought refuge here had his lag broken by being thrown violently on the pile of broken stones on which they were standing. The express was going so fast that, although the epgineer reversed his engine and put on the brakes so bard that most of the passengers were brought up standing, the train ran to Hohoku* station before it could be stopped. It ran back to the scene of the accident It was a sickening sight Pieces of human flesh were scattered all along the track. In one place was a head, entirely severed from the trunk, and bowled along the track like a football. Legs, arms, clots of brains, shreds of bloody clothing, lay In every direction. A great pool of blood, from which a little stream was already running down the embankment, nuuked where the men had stood. Those who had escaped unhurt were running up and down, shrieking and waving their arms in a frenzy of terror. Some were actually cnizod by their horror and ran howling into the woods.

All of the newspapers aooompanled the dispatches announcing the event with voluminous obituary notices and sketches of his expeditions. His rssooa of Dr. Livingstone is dilated upon with great precision in detail, and the eminent services of the supposed dead explorer are recounted at length and in laudatory language. In spite of all these elaborate tributes to the famous traveler and author, however, the reports of his death are discredited by the papers publishing them, and even the West African Telegraph company, through whose agency the news was brought, is unable to verify the statements. A variety of theories is advanced to account for the report, but none of them has even as plausible a foundation as the rumor Itself. The one most generally accepted, however, is that the native who brought the news to Matadi reported that a "white chief" had been killed, and that the missionary who forwarded the rumor assumed that the "white chief' was Mr. Stanley. StUl, it is strange that no one engaged In manufacturing theories to refute the probability that the missionary was right in assunllng that the report of Mr. Stanley's death was correct has ventured to presume that the story of his having left Aruwiml on June 2 or 8 can have been untrue. Telegraphic mistakes are The flre originated in the upper floor of the ice house, the lower portion of which was unoccupied, as the brewery used the ammonia process of cooling. The flames bunt through the roof, and in an inoredihly short space of time spread to the main brewery building on the south, and to the street car barns, across Virginia street, on the north. The hay and straw stored In the barns added fresh fury to the flames, and the first car barn building, in which the horses were stabled and where the waiting rooms and starter's office were located, were speedily gutted, not, however, before, tho horses, 390 in number, were gotten oat in safety. The second building where the cars were stored also caught, bat through the exertions of the firemen was damaged but little. | Ziegele's brewery was almost completely destroyed, but the great elevator and storehouse on Washington street were guarded by numerous streams of water and escaped, as did also the large stables belonging to the brewery. The total loss is estimated at about 9140,000, divided as follows: Ziegele's brewery, 1100,000; street oar company's barns, 130,000, and minor losses about (10,000. FaoMo Railroad Investigation. Salt Lakc Citt, July 22.—At yesterday's session of the Pacific railroad Investigating commission, Percy B.

He had attended stssions of the Nebraska legislature to explain to members particular features of pending railroad legislation, but had not ussd any other means than explanation and argument to influence a vote in his favor.
