THE OHIO MAN'S FIRST YICTORY The National Committee Seats Nearly All the McKlnley Delegates From Alabama, More Trouble Over the Colored Delegates Statement From the Sergeant-at-Arms. St. Louis, Juno 11. Mr. Manloy, of Maine, who is managing Speaker Hood's canvass, said this forenoon : "In my judg ment tho convention will nominate Gov ernor McKlnley on tho first bnllot for tho prosidoucy. It Is useless to attempt to deny that this will bo tho result. Tho action of tho national committee) In Its overwhelm ing voto ou-tho Alabama caso settles con clusively how tho rospectlvo states which tho members of tho committco represent will voto In tho convention. "Mr. Heed's name will bo presented to tho convention nnd ho will bo voted for. and I am authorized to say that under no conuit'.ons or circumstances cau ho orwill ho accept tho nomination for vlco presi dent, if it should bo tondered to him. Tho great majority of tho Now England dele gates will bo loyal to Mr. Reed, but tho convention Is for McKlnley and will nom inate him."

MANLEY. of excitement when It was known that tho manager of Mr. Rood had announced that thoro was no further hopo among tho lead' crs of tho foreos of tho man from Maine. Other supporters of Mr. Rood said tho declaration would cost Mr. Reed at least half of tho votes that would havo been cast for him had nothing of tho kind been said. Sovoral of Reed's supporters asserted that tho declaration of Mr. Manloy ought to no lollowed by a statement from Keed that his mimo would not bo presented, so that thoso who were yet undor obligations to voto for him would bo released. It was said that In tho foco of certain and nib mlttcd defeat, delegates could not bo ox peetcd to voto for Reed, and that probably nil of Now England s votes, all of Rhodo Island's and nil but 0110 in Connecticut would bo cast for McKlnley, even if Reed's namo was presented.

THE SHERIFF FIGURES IN THE CASE Joseph Kurclewlcz, of the First Ward, Has a Sis'.er-ln-Law Engaged to Three Boarders Within a Week-A Money Consideration. A complicated lovo atl'alr in tho First ward has resulted in tho Sheriff levying upon tho goods of 0110 of our Polish citizens. Joseph Kurciewicz and wifo keep a boarding houso in tho First ward, and it appears that Mrs. Kurciewicz has a Bister across tlio water who is very anxious to make this her homo. Slio lias not tho money, howover, to pay for tho journey and her sister hit upon a novel plan whereby the desires of tho young lady could bo satisfied. At tho Kurciewicz houso a man boards who lias a great fondness for tho fair sex, and in his desiro to become a Benedict mado tho following proposition to Joseph. Ho promised to pay $50 towards tho oxpenso of tho trip, if tho young lady proved acceptable upon her arrival, with tho proviso that tho two were to tako each for better or for worse. If sho was not to his liking Joe was to pay tho faro. To bind tho bargain tlio boarder paid Joo $13 on account, and tho latter gavo a friend a judg ment exemption noto as security. Tlio young woman arrived, and as her charms failed to reach tho heart of tho boarder, ho refused to marry her, and de manded his money back. Failing to get it, tho boarder appealed to tho Sheriff and that official yesterday lovicd on Kurciewicz's household goods. Barna Lubrikus also boards at tlio samo houso, and Cupid's darts had tho desired ef fect upon him. As a result the two wore perfectly agreeable to a marriage, tho licenso was procured, and to make matters more complicated ho now refuses his baud iu mar riage. Not dismayed by her former efforts, her charms attracted tlio attention of boarder No. 3, and tho wedding is set for next week. What will transpire between now and then is a question of doubt.
