The sheriff and his posse, together with railroad de tectives, are hot on the trail of the five robbers who held, up the Chicago & West Michigan train near FenrmUe last night. They have tracked the gang four miles toward Allegan. The entire coun try has been aroused and posses are out in every direction.'A new brass lantern, which was used in flagging the train, was found this morning near the scene of the hold up. Section men also found a Colt's navy revolver of 44-cahbre. All six chambers were loaded and there was a clot of blood on the barrel. The railroad officials offer a reward of $l,C00 for the arrest of the robbers, and the Allegan county officials also offer a reward. Gothenburg. Neb., August 21. The Union Pacific tram No. 8, the east bound overland flyer, arrived here' at 3.10 this morning with the passengers in a state of great excitement, the Express car shattered by dynamite and riddled with bullets, and the trainmen badly scared. -The train was held up and robbed by bandits in a cut naif way be tween Brady's Island and this place, at 1 o'clock this morning, ice tram was delayed about two hours. The robbers flaeeea tne train, ana when it stopped they cut off the engine and ordered the engineer to accompany them to the Express car. He was or dered to ODen the car with a crowbar, but failed. The robbers then exploded several dynamite cartridges against the car door, blowing it open and reducing tae ExDress messenger to submission. The safe was also blown open and its contents taken. It is not known what booty they secured. ' The robbers, when they tooK tne en gineer from his eneinejeft the fireman on board unguarded, ne iook advan tage of hisrlibertv to pull open the throt tle and started for this place as fast as the engine would go. When the bandits saw the locomotive disappearing, they realized that assistance would soon be on hand and they hurried along with their work, which was not so thorough as it would otherwise have been. They un- doubtlv overlooked much valuable Ex- oress matter. Upon the arrival ot tne nreman wun - . . ... the engine at this point a posse was hastily organized and returned to the scene of the robbery. The road agents had disappeared, however, and the train was brought into Gothenburg, leaving the pesse to wait for daylight before taking up the trail of the robbers. It is believed that they are lew in number, as thev would not otherwise have left the fireman unguarded. Aside from scaring the passengers by vollevs of pistol shots, no one on the tram was hurt or molested. - The messenger refused to make any statement as to the extent of the rob bery and the trainmen know nothing. The posse which is in pursuit of the rob bers is well armed and thoroughly ac quainted with the country, and it is con sidered certain that the bandits will be captured or killed during the next twenty-four hours. The train proceeded eastward at 4 o clock. NEWS OF THE NAVY. AoUng Beoretary MoAdoo Harrying Tjp the Work of Preparing Vessels For" Sorrisa Movements ot United States War-ehip?. By Tejegraph to the Meriting: Star. Washington, Aug. 21. Measures were taken by Acting secretary Mc- Adoo, of the Navy Department, to-day to place in service within a very short time, the gunboats now under construc tion at Newport News, Va and also the cruiser Boston and the old corvette Adams, now at Mare Island, California. A conference of the Bureau of Chiefs composing the Board of Construction was held in Mr. McAdoo s office this morning and plans for hurrying up the worK ot preparing these vessels for sea were discussed. The feeling of uneasiness respecting the safety of American citizens in China and the likelihood of revolutionary trouble in South America and Central America are the reasons that actuated Mr. McAdoo in his desire to place these vessels in commission promptly. . A telegram was sent last night to the commandant of the Mare Island narv yard, asking bow soon the Boston could De commissioned, ana an answer re ceived this morning says that all repairs to tne cruiser nave been completed, and that she can go to sea immediately after a dock trial to test her machinery. The Adams is also nearly ready for service, and the remaining work necessary to put her in sea-going condition will be hurried. Chief Constructor Hichbcrn reported 10 Mr. mcaooo mat tne six gunboats wnicn were designated with regard to service in the shallow waters of Chinese rivers, could not be made ready for ser vice under a year. . Work is also to be hurried on the plans for the two new battle-ships au thorized by the last Congress and it is understood thaTlhe contracts for their construction will be let and their build ing began in a few months.

By Telefcragh to the Horning Eur. ... ; Springfield,; August 21. In spite of James E. Campbell's earnest and re peated protests that his friends must not nominate him as the Democratic candi date for Governor of Ohio, as he could not make the race for various reasons, the ex-Governor was put at the head of the ticket byAccIamation against hia will tr ri hv tne huu aeieeaics 10 mc rv.nwfntton. The : nomination was forced upon the Butler county man while he was in the midst ot a speecn ana in the act of presenting tne name 01 Judge Peck, of Cincinnati, for the same honor. Then came a graceful accept ance, and the rest of the ticket was made up on the acclamation oroer. Senator Brice won his point of having only a reaffirmation of the National cur rency plank inserted in the platfdrm, sound money winning Dy me souuu maior tv Ot 255 wnen tne iree suvci amendment to the platform was put to the Convention. At 10.25 State Chairman -M. A. Smalley called the Convention to order. He refrained- trom making a speecn himself. Prayer was offered Dy Kev. S. F. Breckinridge, and then amid more cheers. Senator Calvin S, Brice was pre sented as temporary chairman, and ad dressed the Convention. The references of the Senator to the money question were loudly applauded, and equal enthusiasm was manifested when the speaker pronounced his eulogy upon President Cleveirnd. The report of the Committee on rer- manent Organization, .continuing im temporary organization, was adopted with a shout. , Frank Hurd, the free trade apostle 01 Toledo, then presented the majority report of the Committee on Resolutions. It read: The Democratic party of umo, m convention assembled, points wun sat isfaction and pride to the wisdom ot tne action "of that party in the last two years and the results accomplished according to its promises, to wiu The repeal ot Kepuoiican legislation known as the Sherman law, the un- American Federal Election law and the McKinlev law. from which repeals has resulted returning orosoentv to the country to such an extent that even the Republicans are obliged to recognize the same. We congratulate President Cleveland that his efforts in favor of the repeal of these vicious laws and the upholding of the credit of the country has been suc cessful. We congratulate our Senator, Hon. Calvin S. Brice. for the earnest and ef fective support he has given to the Pres ident in these matters. When we consider the facts that the Democratic party received from the Re publican party in 1892 a bankrupt treas ury, that it inherited from them the vicious currency and tarin laws wnicn had prepared and finally produced the panic of 1803, we insist that it is entitled to the thanks ot the people lor tne cour age with which it has attacked and re pealed these laws. We reaffirm the following portion of the seventh plank of the last National Democratic Convention: "We hold to the use of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country, and to coin both gold and silver without dis crimination against either metal or charge for mintage, but the dollar unit of coinage of both metals must be of equal intrinsic and exchangeable value or be adjusted by international agree ment or by such safe legislation as shall insure the maintenance of the parity of the two metals and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the payment of debts, and we demand that the paper currency shall be kept at par with and redeemable in such coin. We insist upon this policy as especially necessary for the protection of farmers and laboring classes, the first and most defenceless victims of unstable money and fluctuating currency. The remainder of the platform relates to State affairs entirely. The platform was signed by nineteen out of twenty-one members of the com mittee, the dissenters being A. W, Patrick, of Tuscarawa, and J. W. Lewis, of Champaign. These submitted the following minority report to the financial plank: "We favor the immediate restoration of the law providing for the free coinage and full legal tender 01 both gold and silver coins, and their use without dis crimination as provided for in the Con stitution." The vote on this proposed amend ment was aye 270, no 525. Majority for "sound money 255. The vote was a defeat of the free sil ver men 270 to 525. , When the silver issue was out of the way, uenerai Ji. tJf miey, 01 tJucyrus. created a division by submitting another plans to tne piattorm, "viewing with alarm the armed invasion by Great Britain of a friendly country and insist ing upon the enforcement of the Mon roe doctrine." The chair ruled that the resolution : could not be considered. In different forms this decision was challenged ia all parts of the house; After a prolonged parliamentary skirmish', the resolution was put upon its passage as an independent motion. Opposition was offered by John F. Follette, of Cincinna ti, who declared that they were not there to . intimate that they had no conn dencein the Democratic administration. If any necessity arose for the enforce ment of the Monroe doctrine, there was no doubt that Grover Cleveland would enforceit. President Ingalls, of the "Big Four.' warned the Convention against tacking Elanks to a regularly prepared platform, ut Ex-Governor Campbell, in ' a few vigorous remarks, carried the Conven tion with him. He asked his hearers if they would spit upon the ancient Mon roe doctrine or affirm it. There was no intention of flouting the administration of the greatest of living Americans. Ten years ago, and again a year ago, through Mr. Bayard, this country had warned Great Britain to keep its. hands off the South American Republics. Congress had passed a resolution to the same effect, but on the other side of the At lantic they had sneered at the resolu tion. They bad smiled with contempt when it said that the Monroe doctrine should be respected. The resolution was simply intended to notify the in coming Congress that the people de manded legislation that would drive Great Britain out of Venezula, and that they were not prepared to lay down and allow the British lion to put its paws on tnem. ioe resolution was tnen put and carried with a whoop- ine piattorm, with its sound monev plank, was adopted by a viva voce vote, a hundred or more delegates yelling nil As soon as nominations were declared in order, ex-fciov.

Further Seduction of the Treasury Gold Beserve (Senator Harris Biok Advioea from Consul JemUan Assignment of Supreme Court Justices tlhortafce in Ac counts of Librarian Bpoffjrd. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washington, Aug. 81. The Treas ury Department is informed that $100,000 in gold was withdrawn for export to-day. reducing the gold reserve to $101,- 480.000. Senator Harris, of Tennessee, was taken ill at his residence n this city last night and for a time was in a serious condition. To-day bis physicians re port him improved and out of danger. Owing to the death ot Justice Jack son. it became necessary to make a re-ar raneement of the assignment of the lustices of the supreme court to the several circuits. This was done by Chief lust ice Fuller, and to-day it was re ceived at the office of the Clerk of the Court. The assignments are as follows : First Circuit, Justice Gray; Second Cir cuit, Justice Brown; Third Circuit, Jus tice Shiras; Fourth Circuit, Chief Jus tice Fuller; Fifth Circuit, Justice White; Sixth Circuit, Justice Brown; Seventh Circuit, ! Justice Harlan; Eighth Circuit, Justice Brewer; Ninth Circuit, Justice Field. I The office of Clerk of the Court was closed to-day in respect for the late As sociate justice Strong, retired,' whose funeral took place at Reading, Pa. Consul-ueneral Jernigan, at Shang hai, has informed the State Department by cable that the investigation by the Chinese authorities of the Kucheng massacre is being conducted with closed doors. Acting Secretary Adee has com municated this information in a cable gram to Mr. Denby, the United States Minister at Pekm, with instructions to ascertain its portent, and, if it be true, to arrange matters so that the United States commissioner now at Kucheng J. b. Hixson, United States Consul at Foo Chow can attend the hearings and not be hampered in getting at all the facts. The President to-day isssed an order extending the Civil service rules to in elude all printers and pressmen in the Executive Department. The accounts of Congressional Libra rian Spofiord, ; which have been under investigation by the Auditor of the Treasury for the State Department, are said to show a shortage of at least $35,000. This shortage is said to exist in the pay. roll accounts of the Li brary, and in addition to tms is a discrepancy in . the copyright and search fee accounts. The accounts have been examined by an ex pert in the office of Auditor Holcomb, and his report is believed to have been carried to President Cleveland at Gray Gables by Assistant Secretary Hamlin of the TieasuryDepartment. who went to his cottage at Marion, Mass., a few days ago to spend his vacation. At the Treas ury Department no confirmation what ever can be learned regarding the mat ter, officials declining to discuss it, or to reveal the results of the Investigation. x he omcial figures issued to-day show that the general Treasury balance stands at $181,534,897. This includes $2,876,277 disbgrsed on account of bonds and inter est this month, which will not appear until the statement ior August appears on the 1st of September. Deducting this, the actual balance is found to be $179,158,620. This is the lowest figure reached since last March, when the Treasury began to receive the proceeds of the sale of bonds at that time. The balance of available funds in the Treasury is something less than $8,000, 000, and this is necessarily divided among the several sub-treasuries and in designated depositories. Thus far there has been no necessity to transfer funds by telegraph from one point to another in order to meet heavy drafts, as was done before the last bond issue, and Treasury officials do not believe they will be com pelled to do so. While it true that receipts from cus toms dues are likely to be lighter for a time than they have been, owing to the lact that the heavy Fall importations are generally in, confidence is felt by the Department officials that the rev enues will be sufficient to meet expendi tures. Certainly this will be the case, in their opinion, when importations of Spring goods begin to arrive in the near future. In the meantime the balance will be kept well up to its present figures.
