Washington, Feb. 22 Senate.--On motion of Mr. Hoar, in considera tion of the fact that today is a legal holiday the morning business was dispensed with, so tha' the order of tho Senate of last Monday should be immediately carried out. The galleries were well filled thcugh iiot crowdeel. Fifty Senators were in their seats and maintained throughout the ses sion attitudes of most respectful at tention. I All officials, clerks and pv gCK wer& at their posts as on other days, but from tho beginning there was an abstention from tho pursuits of ordinary occasions. The cloak rooms ycre empty; the elesks of the Aerators 'were free from papers, there was no wiiting of letters, no reading)! of newspapers and no moving about the chamber.

Tho Michigan officers had just arrived; and had a talk with the pris oners, who asked for a few minutes in which to decide whether to return to Michigan without a requisition or not. The officers left the jail to give them an opportunity to consult to gether.! Returning shortly after, they found they had locked them selves in their cell and shot them selves ith a revolver. The details of the deed will never be known. The girl died almost ic6tantly.

One died upon reaching the hospital and the others cannot live through the day. Men and rocks were hurled many feet by the shock. The explosion was caused by some cartridges fused last Satur day, bat not exploded until the men resumed work about them. A few taps on tire -drill served to set off the uuexploded cartridges with results as stated. A coroner's inquest will be held as soon as possible. Canada on the Treaty. By Telegraph to the News and Observer. Tobonto, Feb. 22. The Mail (Inde pendent), commenting on the fisheries treaty, says : "Substantially the Amer icana have won their case. Mr. Bay ard fell heir to a question, the solu tion of which had baffled several gen erations of British and American statesmen. Under his direction it has at length been brought to a ter mination which must be satisfactory to every American, since it is sub stantially all that the United States Las ever asked. Canadian fishermen receive no sort 01 equivalent for tne concessions made to tha Americans except tho barren privilege of fishing in American bays. In his message transmitting the treaty to the Senate President Cleveland appears to talk almost directly in favor of the estab lishment of closer trade relations be tween the two countries." The Empire (Government organ) says : "Grumblers will, 1.0" doubt, find fault with the detail?, but rea sonable people on both sides of the hue will leioice that a question giv ing rise to so much bitter feeling bids fair to be removed from the arena of controversy and that the neighborly feeling and good will which ought to prevail between people having such intimate intercourse will again hold 6way." From Washington. Cor. of the News and Observer. Washington, D. C, Feb. 21. '88. The National Democratic Execu tive Committee meets here tomorrow to decide when and where the Na tional Democratic Convention Bhall be held. Every member of the com mittee, it is said, will be present in person. The best opinion is that the convention will meet in Chicago on June 5th. The contest is between Chicago and St. Louis, New York and San Francisco being virtually out of the light. The chances tonight de cidedly favor Chicago. It is chiefly a question of accommodation; but it is urged that Illinois will furnish the candidate .for the Vice-Presidency, and therefore, Chicago ought to have the convention. Strong delegations are here; the Chicago delegation is very strong and urgent and at .this writ ing confidently claims the convention. The delegations are composed of rep resentativo and influential Democrats arid they all seem to be of one opin ion about Mr. Cleveland s renomlna tion. Reports are current of trouble and defection in New York and on the Pacific slope, but ihe Democrats here from those places do not talk that way. From members of the nation al committee, who come from every State and territory is heard the same story of his unanimous and enthusi astic renomination. ' the vice-presidency. There is more than one opinion about the Vice-Presidential nomina tion, but the drift decidedly and un mistakably points to Gen John C. Black, Commissioner of Pensions. In the Northwestern, Pacific and South erp States the feeling is marked. A prominent Southern Congressman said today that Georgia would present his name to the convention and that, in his opinion, every Southern State would vote for him. Gov. Gray, of Indiana, is an avowed candidate for the nomination, and in his zeal to se cure it, said an Indiana Congress man, his candidacy has been car ried to the point of indecency. ndiana does not want the nomina tion. The State may present Gray s name to the convention, but not with view to his nomination. Indiana politicians here laugh at the idea that Gray is a party necessity. 11 is su premacy in State politics is not ques tioned, but it is the supremacy 01 a bold and successful politician. His name on tho national tickot, they say, would precipitate another campaign of E-lacder and vituperation. The Hoosiers do not mince words in dis cuBBing the Gray movement. In diana, they say, may put his name in nomination. Gray has manipulated the delegation al ready, and it is on the programme that his name is to go before the con vention as the choice of the iioosier State, but the ticket, they say, will never read Cleveland and Gray. Black is the first choice of such leading and influential Democrats as ex-Senator McDonald and Senator Voorheee, and the e ccond choice of Indiana. He lives near the Indiana line and has a Strong personal following in that State. Everything now points to his nomination H. CHC03E3 JCLY 3llD AS THE TIME FOR THE NVTIOSAL CONVENTION THE FLACE SOT YET SELECTED OTHER NEWS. By telegraph to the News and Observer. Washington, D. C, Feb. 22. The National ' Democratic Commit tee met in Willard's Hall in this city at noon today for the purpose of se lecting the time and place for the holding of tho next Democratic con vention. Ex Senator Wui. II. Bar num presided. There was a full at tendance of . , delegates, the only vacancy being in the membership from the State of New Yoik. After a brief discussion Yfilliam .Steinway was elected to fill the vacancy. After the organization had been completed tho. chairman stated tha'. the first business in order was the se lection of a date f'r holding the Na tional Democratic Convention. Sen ator Gorman offered a resolution fix ing the date at July 3d next. This was vigorously opposed by Congress man Scott, of Pennsylvania, who was present as proxy for Wm. A Wal lace. He read a lorg written speech, depicting tho advantages which he believed would accrue to the Demo cratic Tmrtv from a convention held as early as"' May 22d. He said that when the DenW-ratie party was in power" befere the war it had been its practice to hold conventions early in the year. In the present case he de clared that the campaign could bo made inoi e vigorous and aggressive by th3 selection of an early date and a distinct and early enumeration to the American people of the principles which would: be wrought into the Democratic platform. Mr.! Dawsbn, of South Carolina, followed ia the same- veiu, expressing the opinion that the Democratic party would belittle itself by deferring its convention till it first ascertained how ,the Republican platform wa? framed ar-d who were the nominees of that party. Another proposition was made at this juncture to fix June but to St. Louis, with a Democratic administration, it would be an honor indeed and one for wbk'h its e ti zens would feel dee ly grateful. Sho would dvfray the expenses of every member ci tne comtriuee ana 1 her tdeerarhie transportation! aud ! hotel facilities were unsurpassed. , j Senator Vest, of ilo , in seconding I the claims of St. Louin, said that if i there was auyshing in location which would enable tho Democratic j paiiy to continue the present bravo ' and honest administration of the ! government, no sort of local or per- j sonal feeling ought to interfere. It one grain of dust could bo put in the balance which would influence tho issue in the coming contest that grain of duct should be put in the scale by the location of tho convention in any part of the United States.

Bismarck, i-ak., Feb. 22 A case was decided yesterday in the Supreme Court which decides the local option or prohibition law passed at the elec tion for which 64 out of 85 counties voted. After much argument it was finally decided that the local option law must reign supieme in the 64 coun ties and that the liquor tralhc must be abolished in these places, some of which depended a great deal on the taxes collected from liquor sales. The Crown Prince' Coudltlon. By table to the News and Observer. ' Berlibt, Feb. 22 The doctors all agree that improvement in the con dition of tho Crown Prince is main tained and that his symptoms are en couraging. Unofficial reports declare that the Crown Prince has not gained in ttrength, although he experienced rtl.ef from the dissolving? of the ul cerous swelliner on the rieht Bide of the larynx. vention, but this, as well as the early date suggested by Mr. Scott, was objected to by Senator Thurman.who declared that, in view of the fact that thereiwere some differences: of opin ion id tho Democratic party upon the tariff rquestioh, it would bo impolitic to hdld the ' convention before the Democratic House of Representatives had had an opportunity to agree upon a tariff measure which would bring together all dissentient .opinions and secure the united support of the partyt When such a bill had been agreed upon: tho Dtmocrats could fasten upon the Republican Senate the responsibility for tho failure to enact a la-.v revising the existing tariff law and correcting its faults. Senator Pasco, of Florida, briefly expressed himself as in favor of an early faults. A ballot was then taken on tne three propositions, which dis closed the fact that the ad vocates of the July date had a clear majority er the adherents to the May and dates, ine latter men combinei. selection of t tee by a vote of the convention July I 3d next. then taken. When tho committee re-a semblod, on motion 01 iir. lawsou 01 ooum Carolina, representatives of the press and the parsonal friends 1 1 members of the committee were admitted to the session. The committee then gave a hearing to the representatives of the various ci ies which aro contending for the honor of securing the convention, the first audience being given to Mr. W. W.Fuller,of Chicago,who presented reasons why that city should be se lected. General Mum presented tne claini3 of Cincinnati, O , a duty which bad :been assigned to Speaker Car lisle.' He regretted the enforced ab sence of that gentlaman, who, he said, had been summoned to the bed side of his sick son in Kansas. He was assured that the sympathy of the committee would follow the Speaker in his calamity. Representative S. S. Cox, of New York, then went to tho platform to present the claims of the metropoli tan city, and was greeted with loud applause and cheers. He thanked the eommittee for the kind reception given New York in his own person. That city, he said, presented through her business men, her political organ izations and all the associations which belonged to tbat Democratic strong hold its earnest request for the meeting of the Democratic convention at that place. He presented a commu mcation from the business men s committee of New York, setting forth the accommodations which could be offered to the convention in Madison Square Garden, and making generous oners of hospitality to the committee and of convenience to the delegates to the convention. As to transportation said Mr. Cox, New York would stand on a par with any o ther city, and his to journalistic ad telegraphic com munication : it way far ahead. All roads led to New 101k, as to a point of industrial, com mercial and imperial importance for the Democracy of New York was an imperial Democracy, lie did not say that Ne wl ork surpassed her sisters in suburban comfort and sea bretzts but she was the peer of other cities not excepting Constantinople. (Laugh ter). Maor Fraijcir. ut M. Louis, con tended that tho convention should be hold inH-ho same city which had been the scene of the memorable conven tion of 1876, which had broken the long record of Republican success. (Applause). He asked that the con vention should be held in that city on the banks '-f the Mississippi which, within three short months, had ten dered to the national leader of the Democratic party such an ovation as had never been surpassed in any country. The national gathering of Democrats was an honor to any eity, election. Chicago had obtained the last Democratic convention, but his impression wa3 that Chicago had given the same brutal Republican majority. (Laugh ter). In the course of his speech he declared that he belonged to that school of Democrats who believed that all the offices of this country should bo filled by competent and worthy Democrats. (Loud and pro longed applause aud a cry of "Hur rah for David B. Hill.'") Ho believed that unle9 there was buch an inequal ity as to render the decision a crime, he would give ; the preference to an honest Democrat over au honest Republican. If there wero two hotels in the city be found it eajy to convince himself that tbo Dniceraiichotel set a bet ci table and furnished a bet'er bed than the Republican hotel. (Lnughter.) If there wero two lines of railroad, one officered by Republicans and the other by Democrats, he coula easily satinfy himself that the Democratic road was the smoothest anel freest from acci dents. (Laughter.) An army tbat did not reward its own soldiers would come to grief, and the party which did not stand by its own men would share the same fate. (Applause.) He urged that thq convention should be held in ft Democratic city, and deprecated the practice cf feeding Republican cities ou Democratic sponge ckv (Laughter.) None of the surplus fund iof the Republican party went to a Democratic city and the reason for the success of that party in the past and it formidable aspect at present , was that it Etood by its political localities. He had little sympathy .with the argument that in the ."election of the convention city the .comfort of the Demo crats should bo consulted. The Dem ocrat who could not stand two days of tho hottest weather ever invented in order to secure some Democratic votes was unworthy of the name. (Applause.) Us hid canvassed for tho party when the :lermometer was 103 ia the shade, and had fattened every day- The coming convention would be a short one. The candi date could easily be named. It3 du ty would be to announce a platform on which to go to the country with a great lead- r who would carry the par ty again to victory. The candidate would come from New York. Why should the convention go to that city instead of to the imperial west in or der to announce his name to the peo ple of the U. S ..? He had no word to say against the crowned States of the Pacific slope which today were rush ing to unequakd : empire amid gold and sunshine and ."flowers. He had not one word to whisper against ttTat splendid city of ; the Lakes whose progress and weird h were unparal lelled in the annals of the country, but in the comiDg canvass the Democratic party must stand by its principles and platform and rely on the innate strength of the Democracy alone. "I thank God," be said, ft'-'iat we are in bate array and ready for what is to come. Our leader has and will have in his hand the banner, not doubtful or indecisive, but floating wide, fair and definite, with the prin ciples of the party upon it." (Ap plause). Horace C.

If one grain of sand could be put in the bal ance in favor of the Democritic party and the gentlemen could 6how that by holding the convention in Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati or New York that grain of eand would fructify antl bring forth Democratic fruit in No vember, he would not stand here ask ing that the .convention should be given to Sau Francisco. The Democrats of California and the Pa cifio coast had been Spartansx m tho cause, and while they held forth the band of fellowship to their fellow Democrats of the east and south, and while they offered to bar bor the convention at their firesides they would not wish to. have the pleasure of its society and company did they not feel that they could be of some service in the great baltl about to be opened.
