PTTSBUEGH, November Captain Sam.
uel Lewis, young man who for several
years has been the confidential clerk OF
Godired & Clark, paper manufacturers Of
this city, left for parts unknown a few days

New YORK, November LA special to

be given to Payne' Converse, General Nor
gan and other leading Democrats
Are In the scheme
with all their soul, and the only prominent
Democrat in politics not made acquainted
with the details OF the work until recently
was Payne himself. A committee has
waited upon him and he has consented to
the use Of bis name before the Legislative
caucus. This action has driven Thurman
into the Pendleton organization, and there
is probability that il Pendleton, at the
last moment, sees that his own cause Is
hopeless, he will throw his influence and
strength TO Thurman. This would draw
the Thurman men, whatever might be
their number, from the anu.Pendleton
ranks, and in all probability result IN
Thurman's election. Payne will spend
large amount to defeat Thurman, and will
make the fight bitter one.
