The great boom in iron is beginning to
react, and tae first fruits of the recent
heavy decline in iron, iG the failure of
Herman Lissberger, of New York. with
liabilities of $2,500,000.
Mr.. Lissberger states that last fall he
made very heavy purchases of iron. and
imported 100000 tens of various kinds,
such as scrap iron. rails and railroad iron.
About half the quantity thus purchased
was disposed of under contracts previously
made. and good profits were realized; but
the remainder was thrown back on his
hands when the market began to decline
Some OF the iron cost AS high as $45 a
ton, and some was bought as low as $40.

This is but the beginning of the re-
action. and the great business boom, Will

means, has reached the limit, and new

crash comes the fellows who conceived the

E The Democrats of the state of Illinois
never were in better condition than at the
present lime, and il is only necessary to
stand up for the principles of Democracy
and not travel after strange gods, and
success is sure to be the result. It is es-
sentlal that the state convention which
meets on Thursday next, will make no
such mistake as was made in 1875. Give
us straight ticket and it can be elected.
It is worse than folly to even consider an
endorsement of Streeter. Put Democrats
and not renegades on guard.

Arrested In philadelphia.

On the 18th of the present month
Uriah b. Cooling, employed at the
Delaware Beet Sugar Company's
works, at Riverside, suddenly disap--
peared. Upon an examination being
made it was ascertained that a num-
ber of brass valves, spiggots and
pipe had also disappeared.
Suspicion at once pointed to
Cooling, and information was left at
the police office. A few days ago
Chief Maxwell received dispatch
from Philadelphia, stating that
officer Callahan, of that city, had
arrested a man having in his posses
sion a number of brass valves and
spiggots. When arrested the man
was the act of going into a junk
shop corner of Jumper and South
streets, kept by man named
Harvey James.
Word of the arrest was sent to Chief
Maxwell, and he went to Philadelphia
ON Wednesday and identified the priso-
ner.
He returned home and on Thursday
went to Dover and procured a requisi-
ton. Having obtained the necessary
papers he left for Harrisburg on FRI
day afternoon and returned home on
Saturday afternoon having Cooling III
his custody. The prisoner will be
given preliminary hearing probably
this evening. The brass stolen is val
ued at $5S.

speaking of the play, the Philadelphia

Notwithstanding the heat a large audi

witnessing the first presentation of Q. l..
Graves comedy entitled "The -Four Sea
sons-Spring, Summer, Autumn and
Winter" all of which were very hand
somely represented with new and appro-
pirate scenery and costumes. The play
is one of much interest and contains
many pathetic and comic scenes, which
keep up the interest throughout the four
acts. A skating scene in the second act
was particularly amusing, though no at
tempt was made at display as well train
ed skaters. The stage setting for this
portion of the act was warmly applauded.
The various characters in the comedy

THE REPUBLICAN CONTEST OVER
THE DELEGATE ELECTION-A
VERY CLOSE FIGHT.

THE REPUBLICAN CONTEST OVER
THE DELEGATE ELECTIoN-A
VERY CLOSE FIGHT.
An exciting and closely contested
affair was the Republican election OF
delegates to the State Convention,
OH Saturday afternoon, when the re-
spective adherents of the State and
County Committees battled for po-
litical supremacy. The election
commenced at four O'Clock, and in
accordance with the State Com
mittce's instructions, judges were
chosen by the voters present at the
polls at the opening.
This course raised growing at
every polling place, and in the Sec
ond Ward it resulted in an open
fight, which officer Thomas prompt
ly suppressed. Here the trouble
was finally averted by each faction
choosing a judge, and these two
selecting the third.
The result of the election was a
surprisingly close vote between the
two factions, though the County
Committee carried six of the ten
Wards, thus securing 25 of the 40
delegates from this city. Dan
Stewart, of the postoffice, carried
his Ward 1.-THE Tenth) for the County
Committee, while Jim Hawkins car
ried the Ninth for the State Com
mittee, by large majority. Wash
Hastings, however, was defeated in
the Seventh Ward, which the State
Committee factionists regard as theil
greatest triumph of the contest.
In the Sixth Ward there was 8
tie between l.. p. Bush Henry
the colored Demosthenes, and V. D
Walker, which the judges settled by
deciding in favor of Henry, who il
an adherent Of the County Com
mittee.
The following table will show the
vote received in each Ward by the
adherents of the respective factions
