NEWS FROM THE METROPOLIS
Vanderbilt Still Improving. .


BY American Press Association to the STAR.
NEW YORK, August 25.-Commodore
Vanderbilt continues improving.
The Break
in the coal combination is the subject ot
much comment In the market. A gentle.
man connected with leading coal com
pany to-day said he did not believe the
| sale Of five hundred thousand tons would
be beneficial. The companies would gel
nothing for the coal If they forced such
large sale. or course they might buy
II in, but that would not be any benefit
The opinion is gaining among dealers
that after all the price will not go down
SO largely as expected. Everywhere in
the mining districts work is being shut
down, and as the stOppags of operations,
however temporary, will keep large
quantity OF coal out of the market, the
prospects are that the price will stand
at about a fair average. Everything de-
pends upon the action Of The tour great
companies.
All is Serene.
The reports of dissatisfaction and dis.
organization III the American Rife Team
are denied.
Recruiting
for the army and navy is going on rap
idly here. There is no difficulty in OBJ
tanning all the men wanted, owing to the
number who are out of work and desti-
tute.
Moses Y. TiIdem,
brother Of Governor Tilden, still lies at
the point of death, at his hotel In. Ne
Lebanon, N. Y, OF dropsy of the heart.

Correspondence of the Star.
DAYTON, o., August 25.--The crime
for which James Murphy's life was
sacrificed on the gallows to-day was
committed in this city, at ten minutes
| past o'clock (midnight), OF the 1st Of
September, 1875. .... h..

man held in high esteem by his fellow
citizens, and at the time of the tragedy

Works of Manse, Brenneman 6 Co., of
this place. He had been married but a
short time.
His wife and one child, the latter but
few days old, were living in the eigr-
boring city of Urbana. Col. Dawson
was native of Virginia, but at an early
period of his life his parents removed to
Urbana, where the most of his yout
was passed-going, however, at The age
of twenty-five, to Indianapolis, where
he learned the trade Of plow-mnking.
At the beginning of the Rebellion he
was appointed Captain of company in
the Thirtieth Indiana Volunteer Infan-
try, and participated with honor in sew
eral engagements.
Near the close of the war he attained
the full rank Of Major, apd was alter.

Col. Wall is in receipt of letter from

Within the past ten days Assayer Bohm

The vote of Madison county, for Delegate
to Congress has fallen off very materially in
two years. In 1874 the vote Of the county
for delegate was 1,499. This year the vote
cast was only 1,004. Either we have lost
495 votes in two years or the voters stayed
from the polls on election day. 4 CORES
ponding loss throughout the Territory will
reduce the vote to below G,0O0
The Delegate vote in Lewis and Clarke
county this year was 1,433 as against 1924
in 1874. This indicates al apparent loss of
nearly 500 in two years. We estimate the
real loss at below three hundred. Our opin-
ion is that more than 200 voters of this coun-
ty We're absent from the polls on Tuesday OF

Col. Ihornton's lO-horse power engine for
that purpose. He says few ores are reduced

centrating works there that have proved
most effective a re those of least costly con-
struetion. The Cornish Rollers and Blake

Certainly here IL tho necessity for legis!a"
tion to provide how they shall ba counted
md by whom, and, in caso of conflicting
certificates, which votes slsall DO counted;
mad, when certificates roturn moro votes
given than tho State was entitled to, what is
to be dono with tho certificate nnd The Bur.
plusago Of sotes; and where certificates nre
received from states whose right to vote at
all is questioned, as in the case Of Missouri
In 1921 and Of sevcral Southern States In
1866; and where, upon tho face OF tho ccr-
ti6cate, It appears tho Electors voted on
different day than was 'xed by law. as In
Wisconsin III 1867. All these matters, per-
tinont to tho counting Of tho votos,
md certainly not left to tho individual
States to determine, II is within tho
power Of Congress, In carrying out
tho Constitution, to regulate and provide
for by INV. Congress has nctoa on this aa-
sumption from as early date rs 1909. It
has by law prescribed the date on which
Electors shall DO appointed and whom they
shall meet mud vote !; It has by law prescribed
the manner in which they Ahnl1 vote, md tho
substantial features Of thoir certificates, and
the manner in which these certificates shall
be duplioated md how these duplicate cor-
tificates shall be sent to Washington aud
deposited, aud how to tc obta!ned In case
they are required. Several Of these pro-
Visions are in aid and execution OF the Con-
stitution. The necessity for some regula-
| ton to govern eaaea Of contested and fraudu-
| lent elections is evident, and the necessity
