IBY TELEGRAPH To THE TRTBUYE1
HARRISBURG, Penn, March 15.-The feeling in
legislative circles over the Dukes verdict is one OF
deep INDIGNATION, which is not confined to either
party. Some time ago Dukes came here to take the
oath as Representative, but by the advice of Sena-
tor Wallace and Speaker Faunce of the House he
returned home until after the trial, when 1t was
expected that if there any palliating circum-
stances there would be no opposition to his taking
his seat The publication of the letters to the
father of Miss Mutt and tho brutal Ian
guage in them so disgusted every legislator
that all declared against him. Following
this came the verdict which called forth hearty ex-
pressions of Indignation against the murderer.
Speaker Faunce says thatif Dukes attempts to take
his seat he will know the reason why murderer
and seducer shall be proclaimed his peer on the
floor Of the House. He denounces the verdict as
burles1ue on Justice and an outrage. Representa-
tive Sharpe, n prominent constitutional lawyer
SAYS that the verdict should at least have been
guilty of mansaughter. Representative Davis, oil
Montgomery County, says that az the father OF
three daughters he shall resign if Dukes is sworn
IN rs a member. Senator Herr, the ablest lawyer in
the Senate is of the opinion that there Is no mt
language to characterize tho verdict OF the jury.
Democrats and Republicans unite in the assertion
that. while they cannot prevent Dukes from taking
his seat yet they will vote to expel him Immediate

cratic leaders says that ii Dukes is allowed TO SIT IN
