The demo cratic state convention convened nt 0:30 this morning. The heat is extreme and notwithstanding the limited capacity of the house, the indications are that its seating capacity will not be taken. In point of numbers it is one of the smallest state conventions of cither party which lias assembled in Ohio for many years. An effort will V1 made to dispose of business nt oik continuous session in stead of adjourning over to afternoon. The delegates feel that the limited busi ness can be disposed of in a brief time alter the disposition of formulations. The single session will depend upon the progress made by the several com mittees appointed yesterday. The cotn- mittee on resolutions held protrnctetf until early of making session hist night, Inst ins morning, mid then the duly up a plattorni was (ttlogalcu to n sub-conunittce of live. This committee continued its session this morning with out reaching agreement. The hitch is on the silver plank. Gen. Finlcv and other silver democrats insist on the free silver plank of last year, but there is uu effort being made to straddle the ques tion. A tarill rcturni plunk has been adopted and sumutuary legislation dc- r ounccd. Noon On calling the convention to or der Chairman las. A. Norton ol the state central committee referred to the important work of the convention which was the selection of delegates to Chicago, and Which, he said, should be done with the greatest fairness. His mention of Cleveland was received with much en thusiasin, which grew as he reached the names of Hill. Whitney, Gorman and others on the list. When the speaker reached the name of Gov. Campbell the convention assumed a wild scene of dem onstration. The applause continued lor several minutes, giving strong evidence that the ex governor had a big follow ingjin the convention. llon.Jas. E. Ncal, ehainvan of the con vention, came from a skk room to pre side and was received with much favor, lie was frequently applauded in his ut terances. Permanent committics wire announced on the call ol districts, ami at 10: tO the convention look a recess of H0 minutes to give the committees oppor tunity to prepare reports.

In the house today alter the transaction of-s jiiic rou tine business the house went into com mittee of the whole on the fortification hill. HrcckenridHe, of Kentucky, in charge of the bill, briefly explained its provisions. It appropriated $J, fl'J,:!7l, beinj? $l,:U)2, f'.'7 less than the amount of the bill of last vent and authoiizes the secretary of war to make contracts for certain work involving a further ex penditure of $l,37G,G0l). An appropria tion is made lor the enlargement ol Watervliet arsenal, and for finishing ten and twelve inch sea coast guns for that arsenal. In presenting a petition in the senate today from Kiley county, Kansas, in re lation to the prevalence of lynch law, Mr. I'feffer stated that, from the news paper reports, the practice was glowing in all parts of the country, north, south, east, and west, many people, particularly colored people, being hanged or shot to death when merely suspected of crime. It was time, bethought, for tlic American congress to take action in that matter and he hoped that the judiciary com mittee, to which the petition was referred, would report promptly. Mr. Morrill gave notice that be would address the senate on the subject of the silver question before nil the other side of the chainbcrshallhuvelcltforChicago. TO PHKKIDE AT CHICAGO. WatterNon, HtevciiHon and Camp bell for Temporary Cliuirmiui. Chicago, June 13. Among the few democrats of prominence who have ar rived lure there is considerable specula tion as to who will be temporary chair man of the national convention. Secre tary L. V. Shecrin, of the executive com- ittee ol the national democratic com mittee, said today the names be had heard mentioned in connection with the office were Henry Watterson, Adlai Stevenson, ex-assistant postmaster gen eral, ex-Gov. Campbell, ol Ohio, and Governor Abbett, of New Jersey. He added, however, that he had not heard the matter discussed much, as it would hardly be settled before the meeting of the national committee at the rainier house next Monday. N. Y. Herald.

Wharton, physician ot Antes Centre, Woodson county Wharton was a democrat before he joined the alliance. (His is a straight-out far mers' ulliancc man. The democratic convention which was in session nt the time Wharton was nominated had given it out that they would fuse on almost anybody except on Ottis. Five ballots were taken before the nomination was made. The democratic convention im mediately endorsed Wharton's nomina tion. Then both conventionsadjourned. ' IvXCOMMl'ISICVl'F.n. A I.nt of Polish Catholics Scored by Their llisliop. Ci.nvKi.AM), 0., June 15. Bishop Horstmnn last evening took a step which will probably stop the turbulence in the Polish parish of St. Staneslaus, caused by a recent change in priests. He appeared in tlie church at Vcsiicr service and in a short address excommunicated those who had participated in the attacks upon Father Kosinski until they shall have publicly rc))ented of their sins. He scored the turbulent Poles un- mercilullv and they appear now to be thoroughly cowed. IA CARIS. Iiiography mid l ine I.lkeiiCHH of Hie Next (iovernor.
