When That Break Comes Bit N Crowd from New Hanover. Special Star Telegram. A YKTTEVrXLE, N. 0., Au. 19. Delegates and friends of the respective candidates line the streets and crowd the hotel lobbies. The Sixth. Con gressional convention meets at noou to-morrow in the armory building and will be called to order by O. C. Ljo j. of Bladen county. J. B. Underwood, Jr., of this city, will deliver the ad dress of welcome. It is purely a mat ter of speculation as to who will be the permanent chairman or the successful candidate before the convention. The opposition to-night concedes to Bellamy a gain on first ballot of 11 voles over last night's concessions and hold that the ballot will be Bellamy 116, Patterson 82, Hale 63, Brown 58. Bellamy's friends have not changed their contentions of last night to wit: "That he will have on first ballot not leas than 135'votes outside of the 13 votes claimed by them from Cumber land and that he will be nominated on the second or third ballot." The convention bids fair to be one on the order of "A Breezy Time," minus the farce. As I see it to-night the situation is a psculiar one It seems to be the field against Bellamy. Current rumor is that a combine has been perfected to prevent the nomina tion of Bellamy. Robeson, Columbus and Cumberland each have a candi date and with their combined 179 votes control the situation on the-early his tory of the convention. But a break must come and when it does, guessing will be In order. It is claimed by friends of two of the candidates in this rumored combina tion (but not admitted by Bellamy's friends) that they control their delega tions and can throw them to whom they please, but the third is not so for tunately situated. Bellamy's friends hold that when the break comes his nomination will soon follow. At a ate hour to-night the several delega tions are yet holding caucuses. C. J. R. There was another heavy movement of the "faithful" to Fayette villa from Wilmington yesterday morning, while not a few went on the afternoon train via Chadbourn and Klrod. N. O. One or two also left last night, via Wilson. The rear guard will leave this morning and will reach Fayetteville shortly after the convention is called to order. but perhaps not too late to take a hand in the skirmish for permanent organi zation, etc., which will likely occupy the convention until late in the after noon. Balloting tor a nomination may not begin until night, and then the first real news of interest to the public will begin to be wound off. Mr. Bellamy was the first candidate, outside of Fayetteville, to reach the scene. Mr. Fatterson, or Kooeson, reached the convention city, at 10:30 o'clock yesterday morning and Mr. Brown, of Columbus, arrived in the afternoon. Maj. Hale, was, of course, already on the ground. Delegates were arriving on every train last night, and It is estimated that fully four hundred people, outside of the Cum - berland delegation, will be present to day when the convention is called to order. Alderman J. B. Underwood, Jr., has been designated by Mayor Mc Millan, of Fayetteville, to formally welcome the convention to the city. A committee has been appointed to look after the comfort and conve nience of delegates and guests from each county as follows: New Hanover and Brunswick K L Williams, R. EL Buckingham, W. E.

Burriss, Young Car penter, Died by His Own Hand Yesterday. DESPONDENT SOME. TIME. Pretending He Wanted Drag for Medi cinal Use, He Swallowed a Fatal DoBe Funeral and Interment on Myrtle Drove Sound. Despondent because he was out of work and because he had been drink ing rather heavily for three weeks, Oiren O. Burriss, a young carpenter of this city, who lives with his wife and one child at No. 911 South Third street, Monday night went to the drug store of Mr. James M. Hall, Sixth and Castle street", purchased three ounces of laudanum and drank the poison on his way to the home of his father, where he died shortly after midnight yesterday morning from the effects of the overdose of the deadly drug. The young man was very popular with a wide circle of acquaintances ia the city, and his untimely death, ac companied by the tragic circum stances, was heard yesterday with profound sorrow by many. He was a son of Mr. Sylvester Burriss, Fifth and Wright streets, one of the best known citizens of the Fifth Ward. Young Burriss was 28 years of age and had been married only about two years. Until three weeks ago he was em ployed at his trade in assisting with the work of the government on Bald Head island and returned to the city, evidently very cheerful. Later, he became depressed and in his despond ency be committed the rash act which ended his earthly career. He gave no reason for his wishing to to take his own life, and in purchas ing the laudanum said he wanted it to rub his side with. He had left the store but a few minutes when he turned the bottle to his mouth and drank the over-dose at a draught. A policeman is said to have seen the act, but too late to prevent the young man's carrying out his purpose. Burriss was hurried to the home of his father, and soon relapsed into a stupor from which he never recovered. Dr G. Kirby Collier came as quickly as possible to attend the patient, but it was too late to save his life. Dr. C. D. Bell viewed the remains of young Burriss yesterday morning, but no inquest was deemed necessary. Impressive funeral services over the remains were conducted at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon from the resi dence of the unfortunate young man's father by the Rev. C. B. Paul, pastor of Southside Baptist church. The re mains were taken to Myrtle urove Sound and interred in the Home burying ground. LIST OF LETTERS.
