CARTER. (Chairman National Republican Committee) Nobraskn, for presiding officer of tho con vention. Tho selection of C. W. Fair banks, of Indianapolis, for temporary chairman gives general satisfaction. When wo add to these accomplishments tho fact that tho presidential nomineo has prac tically boon nnmod it must bo conceded that tho convention has apparently a conv paratlvely easy and brief task before It. Obstacles may bo encountered, but as yet comparatively few of thorn nro dlscern- nblo. Tho contest in tho committee, on resolu tions is expected to bo sharp, but not pro tracted. As It now uppears thero will lo Uttlo or no difficulty In agreeing upon any of tho planks of tho platform except that relating to thoflnancial policy of tho party. Two problems present thomsalvos. The first of thoso Is how much to do for silver, tho second how little to do for gold Around thoso quostlons rnngo tho spocu lation and tho Interest of all. Ono important question remaining nn- settled Is that of tho selection of a vice presidential candidate.

THE EISENHOWER TRIAL. Tlio Case Win Culled Till, Horning and a Jury Jmqmiicled. Special to Kvesixo Hr.itAi.n. ToTTSviLLn, .luno 15. When criminal court opened this morning, tlio first caso called was that of Tlioodoro Elsenhower, charged with the murder of John Schwlndt on February 17th last, at Shenandoah. Tlio reader is acquainted with tho circum stances of tlio case, and how Elsenhower laid in wait at tho deep cut on tho Lehigh Valley tracks at tlio south end of Main street for William Schwlndt, and how tho latter's twin brother, John, received tlio bullet, and which caused his death two weeks later. Congressman Brumm and Georgo Dyson aro counsel for Eisenhower, and District Attor ney Bcchtcl will bo assisted In the prosecu tion by John F. Wlialcn, Esq. Tho delay in securing a jury was occa sioned by tho non-arrival of Judgo Savidge, who did not put in an appearance until tho afternoon session. Tlio defenso has sub poenaed thirty-six witnesses so far, and tho prosecution expects to call in twenty, so that tlio indications point to a lengthy trial. LIsenhowor was brought into tho court room tills afternoon, looking very cheerful, although much paler than previous to his confinement in tlio county jail. Both Mrs. William Schwlndt and tho widow of John Schwlndt aro in attendance, and when Eisenhower mado his appcamnco they wept profusely, and their sorrow visibly affected tiioso in nttendanco at tlio trial. Mrs. Eisen hower, wifo of tlio prisoner, is not present, in fact, slio rcfusos to appear. Neither side, so far, has subpoenaed her. Tho mother of John Schwlndt is also in attendance at tho trial. At 1 o'clock this afternoon but two jurors were selected, namely : A. E. Granzon, of Ashland, married, and n shoo dealer, and tlio other is Georgo Hill, of Silbcrbrook, Kline township, minor, nnd married. Twenty-two had been examined, and of this number threo were excused, two accepted and tlio remainder bet asido. It will probably require tlio ontiro afternoon session to secure tlio jury. PERSONAL.
