FOfl JUDGE I
Nominated by the Democratic County
Convention To day.
HIS OPPONENTS EASILY BEATEN I
The Nomination Was Secured on the First
Ballot-Edgar W. Bechtel Withdraws
and M. P. McLaughlin, Esq.,
Receives the Nomination
For District Attorney
Over J, J. Moran.
Pottsvlllo, July 10. The Democratic
county convention of to-day was an old-
timer. Tho streets of tho town were blocked
with delegates and friends of the rtsncctivn
candidates, a largo majority of whom reached
bore yesterday artornoon and ovenlnz. A
stranger in Pottsvlllo would have had somo
difficulty in convincing bimsolf that It was
Sunday evening. Street fights, paradinc
delegations and sboutcrs marred tho serenity
of tho Sabbath, nd all tho candidates threw
open their headquarters, and refreshments,
both liquid and solid, were dealt out with a
lavish hand.
WADLINOKR THE FAVORITE.
Each of tho threo candidates for Judge
opoued their hesdquartors early last ovon
ing. A rumor was circulated that James B
Rollly had withdrawn from tho eoutost, leav
ing tbo Hold to Gcorgo J. Wadlingcr and A.
W. Schalck, but this was promptly denied by
the Rollly supporters, somo of whom traced
tho rumor to tho Schalck pooplo, and claim
It was set afloat to Injure tho former's can
didacy. Reilly was at his headquarters until
an early hour this morning and gave It out
that ho would lead on tho first ballot, but
there wero nono outsido of his porsonal
friends, who could ho found to look at tho
contostjn that liiiht. Schalck desortod his
hoadquartors at tho Exchange hotel before
midnight, but was on duty again early this
morning lining up his friends for tho fray.
Thoro wero many of the opinion this morn
ing that tho contest would bo between Wad
llngor and Schalck.
Tho lattor was tho favorite from tho bo
giuning and candidates for other offices, in
forecasting tho probablo ticket, Included
Wadlinger for tho judiciary. His head
quarters in tho Morris building was tho
centio of attraction, and what Is moro to the
point, ho had back of him many of the
shrewdest political manipulators in tho
county, mon who never know when they
aro licked, and never glvo up tho fight until
tho vote is cast. Wadlinger refused to be
drawn into any combination, and mirl. 1,1.
fight singlo-handcd, without tho support of
uiuur cunaiaaics.
CUT A SMALL FIOUHE.
llioso rabid silvorltos who, for tho past
two or threo weeks, have turned their
batteries upon tho threo judicial candidates
cut a vory small figure at this ronvnntlnn
They woro entirely lost in tho scufllo to get
nndor the Wadlinger covor. Shepherd, who
seems to bo tho Idol of' thoso Bryauites, is
quoted rs having said last night that, wero
bo a delcgato, ho would take tho floor of
tbo convention and bitterly opposo the
nomination of either Wadlinger, Rollly or
ocnaics:, on tne ground or party regularity,
I bo darts of these sixtecn-to-ono patriots
were especially aimed at Wadlineor. and
yet he appeared tho especial favorite of tho
delegates In tho preliminary bouts. This
sbows what Influence these ono or two self-
styled silvor loadors havo among tho rank
and file of tho party. The fact of the matter
is, mo canuiaaies neimor sought, nor ac
cepted, their gratuitous adyico, so far as the
judiciary is concerned.
TUB CUMMINO"! BOOM.
Tbo B. W. Cummlngs boom for tho Jnd.
ship died in Its incipiency. Tho fact is it
was nover born outsido of tho brain of a
Shenandoah scrlbo. His name was not men
tioned among tbo delegates horo to-day. It
Is only just to Mr. Cummlngs to say that ho
was not a candidate, aud never gayo his con
sent to tho pso of his namo in that connec
tion. Ho is a popular young man and has a
barrel, and that fact was no doubt tho load
stoue that attracted somo pooplo. Tho
contest ono year ago, when Mr. Cummlngs
tapped his barrel, still lives in tho memory of
more than one "simon-puro Democrat." A
repetition, in allopathic doses, would nn
doubt havo been welcome.
THE MOBNINO BREAKS CLOUDEp.
Most of the headquarters remained onan
qntil threo o'clock this morning, and whon
thoy retired no slate had been formed, al
though sovoral attempts In that direction bad
been made, without success. This morn
ing tho dark clouds had not rolled
away, and at this writing, just
previous to the assembling of the conven
tion, it looks like a free-for-all race, Tho
nomination of Wadlngpr for Judge, Pepew
for Treasurer, and Carey, the Butler town.

dovoloped considerable strongth during tho
preliminary stages or tbe tight. HIggias and
Mauloy, however, romalnod confident and
entered the convention assuring tbelr frleuds
that thoy would win out. Shenandoah
brought down tho largest delegation and
they did yooman service for their respective
ravorltcs in tbo missionary lino.
TUB CONVEKTION I'BOCKEDINQS.
The selectiou of a chairman was lost sleht
of until sborty pioyIqus to the assembling of
tneaoiegates. John u. inr ch, of Tamanua
ouo of the leaders of the silver junta, and
who is a substitute delegate, started a boom
on his own behalf for tho chairmanship, of
tue convention, and.mado a canvass of tbe
various headquarters. This was followed by
the announcement that P. J. Mulholland.

Tho chairman nnnounocd that each delegate

Tho result of the ballot was as follows :
Mulholland, 131 ; Ulrloh, 107; giving tho
Shenandoah man a majority of 27, and bo
was declared elected. His olection was made
unanimous.
Ono dolegxto voted by mlstako on a namo
called Hud voted ior Mulbollaud. This was
detected by somo of tho delegates and tho
proper member or tho district (New Castlo)
appeared and voted for Ulrich. The chair
man, apparently to gain a point for Ulrloh,
threatened to eject anyono who again
attempted to vote nit of tho order. Tho
mistake was explained and passed over with
out further comment.
On tho chairmanship Daniel E. Brennan,
Third ward of Shonandoah, and tbodelegates
of tho Fourth and Fifth wards of tho samo
town, voted for Ulrich. John A. Rcllly, of
tho Third ward of Shenandoah, and tho
delegates of the First and Second wards of
tho town, voted for Mulholland, thus divid
ing tho town about equal.

timo to niako their report, to enable tbo
candidates to know upon 7hat platform tbey
aro to run when, on motion, it was decido at
12 o'clock, to adjourn until 1:30 o'clock.
AFTEBNOON PEOCEEDINGS.
Just previous to tho calling of tho conven
tion to order after tho recess, tho chairman
of tho commlttco on resolutions was cap
tured by tho leaders of tho sliver Junta and,
in ono corner of the room, he was pleaded
with to favor a moro pronounced position on
tbo financial question than that adopted by
tho committee The lattor was by no means
acceptable to tho junta.
It was 1:55 o'clock whon tho convention
was called to order. The chairman called
lor tbe report or tho commlttco on contested
scats, aftor which tho commlttco on resolu
tions mado a report.
Tho resolutions are In lino with thoso
adopted by tho stato convention and set
forth that tho Democracy of tho county
renews its pledges, as declared in tho
several stato and national conventions of
tho party, and endorse "our matchloss
leader, William Jennings Bryan." The
resolutions donounco Republican misrulo
In stato affairs, tho nnjustiflablo increase of
salaries for unnecessary officers at tho stato
capital. Thoy recite that "wo beliovo that
tbe interests of the unfortunate Insane Is of
rar greator concern than any additional
offico created by tho Republican party." Tho
appointment of Senator M. S. Quay by
Governor Stone is denounced as a violation
of tbe state constitution. "Wo also denounce
tho cut mado by Governor Stono In tho pub
lic school appropriation. Tho courso of the
Democratic members of tho late Legislature
Is approved and heartily endorsed. The
Democratic party is committed to a reform
in tbo State Treasurer's offico and against tba
withholding of the people's money In the
banks in tbo Interest of political managers.
Tho party is committed to purging tho list of
unnecessary employes at tho stato capital.
Wo favor ballot reform and demand

connection with tho McCarroll bill and the
election of a United States Senator. Wo call
on all good citizens to lay asldo all questions
outsido of stato and county issues. We en
dorse State Chairman Guffey and favor a
speedy termination of tbe war in tho Phil
ippines." The resolutions, on motion of Mr. Carev.
chairman of tho committee, woro adopted
without a dissenting vote, tbo silverites
having accepted tho Inevitable, knowing full
well that the men In control of tho com
mittee, and who also controlled the conven
tion, would defeat any attempt to substitute
a strong silver resolution.
Aftor tho adoption of tho resolution, noml.
nations for Judge wero called for. George J,
Wadlinger, Esq., A. W. Schalck, Esq., and
Hon. James B. Rollly were placed in nomi

Southampton, July 10. Yachting
circles In tho Solent woro nover more
oxcttcd thnn now over tho prospects
In tho forthcoming rnco for the Amer
ica's cup betweon tho Shamrock and
Columbia. Saturday yachtsmen could
be seen In all directions, and In South
ampton, Hytho, Cnlshot and Cowos the
keenest lookout was kept for tho chal
lenger, which It was known would
stretch her sails.
Sir Thomas Llpton. dollghtcd with
his new treasure and tho brothers
Jameson wero on board tho Ivernn,
John Jameson's cutter, and Mr. Will
Fife, tho designer of tho Shamrock,
was much In evidence
In Southampton water tho Shamrock
presented n mngnlflcont Bight. The
slight hroezo was just enough to fill
her satis, but she gilded speedily and
as gracefully ns a swan.
It should bo understood that Satur
day's trip was In no sense a test of
speed, although the Iverna andSatlnlta
accompanied her. It was solely for tbo
purpose of sail stretching. Very soon
It became apparent that there was not
a shadow of foundation for tho unfa
vorable reports regarding her sails.
No doubt a fow minor alterations will
be found necessary, but tho sails wero
pronounced generally excellent. Thn
helm trials were even more satisfac
tory, It possible, as bIiq answered all
demands beautifully and without the
least trouble.
After passing Calshot Castle sho was
directed toward Cowes, where sho was
eagerly scanned by crowds of exports
already arrived for tho season. A dis
tinguished expert and yachting au
thority said to a correspondent that
tho Shamrock was "the finest yacht
ever seen in tho Solent,"
Starting again, she went alpng like
a shot out of a gun, heaving for tha
west channel and Yarmouth. Then sho
returned toward Southampton. As she
boat up Southampton wator, with gaff
topsail, mainsail and foresail, sho de
veloped wonderful speed, although not
nfter anything definite regarding pace,
finally anchoring off Hytho.
A member of tho crow said to an
American newspapor correspondent:
"Tho Shamrock will do what sho Is
built for, and will beat tho Yankee.
Sho sailed admirably, without a hitch,
arid answered her holm to perfection,
which Is ono of ino greatest considera
tions. Wo aro going to win, but it la
impossible yet to judgo of tho yacht's
full capabilities."
Sir Thomas Lipton expressed him
self as "satisfied with the spin."
interest Is now centered in tho spIhb
with the Britannia, which will bo ready
on Wednesday ror at least four en
counters. In yachting circles the
opinion Is general that the Shamrock
must boat the Britannia at least half
an hour, considering the speed tho Co
lumbia developed In tho races with the
Defender.

Now York. July 10. On Saturday tho
big sloop yachts Columbia and De
fender mot In a battlo royal that was
saitsractorr to all concerned, In a
strong and fairly steady breeze and
smooth water thoy sailed over a course
of about 26 miles, and In covering that
distance the Columbia fairly nnd
squarely outsailed the Defender by 3
minutes ana 13 seconds, actual time.
If Columbia, after measurement, la
found to allow the Defender two min
utes she will still have beaten her by
1 mlnuto and 13 seconds. That means
that she can beat her now over a full
81 mile courso by at least two min
utes, corrected time, and that when she
Is tuned up, say by the September
races, Bhe will easily beat her flye min
utes, which Is all that ia required ot
her.
Saturday's race was as flno n smnnth
