Spoechos wero madoby Senntor Loxow, ox-Senator Fas sott, Edward Lautorbacli and others, and every reforonco to Governor Morton was loudly applauded. It was at tho conclusion of Congressman Southwlck's speech that tho MoKlnloy men in tho conventldn mado their demon stration In favor of tho Ohio leader. Con gressman Southwick finished nt 8:45 p. m., and then called for tho report of tho commlttoooii resolutions. Sonator Loxow said that the committee was not ready to roport. Ueorgo w.

Tlio very audacity of tho act soomod to appall tlio Morton leadors for a momont, and for a fow seconds tho McKlnley adhoronts had the floor to them selves. Then from every part of tho houso came cries of "Morton," "Morton," and tho Al bany contingent, with two Morton ban ners, took tho placo of tho MoKlnloy moil. Tho transformation started, and It was a question of lungs against lungs. Tho superior forco of tho Morton men soon mado their sldo of tho lssuo more promi nent.

Un til there Is a prospoct of International ugreoment as to silver coinage, and whilo gold remains tho standard of tlio United Stntos and of the civilized world, the Re publican party of Now York declares It self in favor of the firm and honorable malntenanoo of that standard."

David McCutcheon Worked With His Father, Who Says That in an Experience of Over Fifty Years His Son is tho First Companion Injured. David McCutcheon, who was injured in tlio Indian ltldge mine yesterday morning, is dead. His death is a shocking surprise to tho family and friends. Although tho In juries wero known to bo qulto serious, it was not thought for n moment that they par took of a fatal diameter. When tlio victim was removed to bis homo at 320 South Jardin street, after tlio accident, it was found that there was a fracturo of tlio left thigh, midway between tho kneo nnd hip joint, and an apparent rupture on the right side, just below tho abdomen. Tho fracture was reduced and McCutcheon was left in the taro of nurses in apparently na good condition as could be" expected under tlio circumstances He did not appear to sillier very much pain dining tlio day, nor did anything transpire until jiiht before the fatal moment to causo tlio family any np prehension. At about three o'clock in the afternoon tho victim was given medicine by ills father. Fifteen or twenty minutes later .McCutcheon called to tho father, who went to tlio bedside. The young man placed his arms about his father's neck and whispered, "I can't see." At almost tlio samo moment ho expired. Tlio shock was a Mjvero ono to tlio family, and especially to the wife of tlio deceased, who is in delicate health and in her bereavement is left with the care of a soven-montli-old child. The accident by which tho deceased sus tained his injuries occurred in breast No. 3 of the West counter gangway in tlio Indian I!id;o mine. Tlio place was worked by tho deceased and bis father, John McCutcheon, who is olio of tlio oldest, most experienced and best known miners in this part of tho region. It appears that before leaving tlio breast on Mondny night they fired a shot and yesterday morning young McCutcheon commenced dressing down tlio place, lieforo doing this, however, the young man took the precaution of making sound ings all around tlio place and found every thing apparently secure and safe. Tho father was down tlio breast, loading a car. There was what is known as a "back slip" in tlio face and experienced miners say it is next to, if not wholly impossible to guard ugaimt them. Whilo young McCutcheon was en gaged in tlio dressing tlio slip fell out and struck him on the back, knocking him down. lien tlio father responded to tlio cry for help ho found his son prostrated with tlio upper part of his body raised and supported by ono of ills arms. Thero was no refuse upon the young man. Tho slip had fallen usido after striking him in the back. It Is believed he died from internal injuries. John McCutcheon, tlio father, lias been working in tlio mines 51 years.aud 39 of them have been spent in tho mines of this county. Ho says his son is tlio first man working with bim to sillier from an accident, although ho lias been injured several times himself. The deceased was net quito 30 years of nge.
