tionil publications. For conducting one
OF these papers known as The Whip, he
served sixty days imprisonment in the
Tombs. lie subsequently published and
sold book entitled "The History OF Sixty
Days in the Tombs."
In 1919 he went to California in com.
pany with David G. Broderick, whose

TaE ISTELLIoRScER OF this morning
contains publication Of peculiar personal
interest to the Chief OF Police. His I'D.
vlsors may be able to invent for him some
sort Of explanation. The affidavit in the
Mayors hands is not to be brushed away
lightly b. saying that it is the testimony
Of woman Of the town. II that defense
he set up it will rest upon the Chief OF
Police to make such showing in his own
behalf as will convince the public that he
istO be believed in preference to the per
son who makes the affidavit.
Itisto be borne in mind that women of
correct lie are not in position to give such
testimony as is given in the affidavit.
Unless the Chief OF Police can show that
the woman has periured herself and that
he is innocent Of the vulgar crime charged
against him, Council ought without mo-
nents hesitation to declare his office va,

ing such an oHense to become q party to

PARNELL'S SUPPORT.

sabstautiaI Way-rhs Plan of Alexander
sullivan-How the Irish Leader ia to
bs Helped in HI Crusade.

NRw YoRx. Sept. 24.-There appears 10
be no touadation for the report that Par
nell's supporters in this country are de
vided in Irish politics because of differ.
ences in American politics. This weeks
Boston Paoi, the leading Irish Democratic
paper in the United States publishes an
interview with Alexander Sullivan, one of
Blaine's leading supporters. Sullivan for
muiates q plan for raising S225, 900 at tho
January convention OF the Irish NationaI
League Of America 10 enable Parnell TO
guarantee ninety members GlO0 each an
nually for FIVE years.
The constituencies will do the rest
necessary to compensate members, this
ninth TO be Americas contribution. He
suggests that Rsv. 0'Reilly, American
treasurer OF the Lesgue, and Eugene
Kelly, the New York banker, lie made
trustees Of this fund; that it be held in
the United States subject to Parnelps Or
der, SO that the English government Gan
never levy on it. His plan provides that
the Chicago convention apportion TO each
State its share OF this Gum. Then the
league work will be divided and response
bility equalized in place Of being all put
on the executive oiiicers as at present.
Boyies 0'Reiiiy editorialiy says Sulli.

that the 1rish.Americans are one in Irith

nary activity throughout the country in

templates that ali funds raised before Jan

OF the election OF Parnellites. The above
sum ia to be raised subsequently, as the

PIrrsnuReH, Pa, Sept. 24.-The Dis.
patci's Mansfield, Pa, special says: The
mystery surrounding the death of Clara
Huff, whose mutllated remains were
found in favine near here yesterday,
was partially cleared to-day by the arrest
of two boys named James Winaus
and John Cromer, neither Of them
over sixteen years. A thorough investi-
cation was instituted to-day and the sus-
picious actions ofthe boys led to their ar
rest. They vigorously protested their in
nocence, but finally confessed that the
murderer was companion Of about the
same age. They stated that he made
criminal assault on Miss Hut,
but she resisted him go strongly that he
was compelled to shoot her to get away.
The boys say they were fully half a mile
from the scene, but heard ptsto! shots and
the girl scream. Tho name OF the young
man is withheld by the police, who have a
number Of clues which will likely lead to
his arrest. The eexcitementoverth the brutal
murder has not yet subsidized.

A STRONG TICKET.
How the NomlnatIgnS are Regarded in New
York City.

NEw YoRE, Sept. 24-The action OF the
Republican Convention at Saratoga seems
as satisfactory to Republicans as it is dis
concerting to the Democrats. It leaves
the dissatisfied element in the party with
out 3 shadow OF reason for declining TO
vote the Republican ticket all the way
through, and that without pondering to
their fastidious taste by the choice Of a
candidate who is not in every respect a
thorough-going Republican, and one long
and actively identified with it.
The business men would have liked
Cornelius n. Bliss, and would have been
pleased If the nomination could have come
to this city, but they have not a word to
say in opposition 10 Mr.. Davenport. Even
the Democrats admit that their task has
been made much more difficult, and none
save the loudest Of the ward politicians
venture to predict Democratic victory ir-
Of the selections to be made at
Saratoga.
( A prominent member OF the Stock Ex.
change, who has been most pronounced
said; "If you will guarantee
notsfo publish my name, l will give you
my opinion, which is sabout the same that
you will find among these who left the
party Last fall. The truth Of
the matter Is that pretty near all OF us are
sick Of our new friends, aud We are very
glad TO get chance to get back to our
narfy Tho namnrraka can mt mt nm a
ticket 10 even approach the one now in
the field, and you may rest assured
and Carr means death to the
Mugwump party.
"rhe Independent papers will fall into
line. They can not do otherwise. The
brokers think Bliss would have been the
strongest man in the convention, but then
they already predict the choice OF the
party to be an excellent one, and believe
d will constantly grow in favor"

CLEVELAND, o., Sept. 9t-Thsre was
great excitement at the Cleveland rolling
mills thip morning. The hopelessness of a
furtherstrike was evident, and nineteen out
Of every twenty men wanted TO go to
work, consequently the question whether
or not work would be resumed
again tomorrow morning remains
an open one. During the afternoon,
had 1t not been for q notice that was
posted, however, general attack upon all
the mills would have been made at s
o'clock tomorrow morning by q mob oi
1000 or 8 600 men. This course had been
definitely agreed upon. As evening ap-
preached and the time drew near for the
men to come cut Of the mills the crowd
began to thicken. Gates were openedand
the men that had been employed through
the day came out. The crowd greeted
them with hisses aud cries OF "black.
sheep" and "blacklegs." The men did
not pay the slightest attention to the mob.
A brisk fight occurred, and afterwards
the strikers met and resolved 10 go To
work, which, it is said, ends the strike.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND sometimes Gays
somsthing that is not pleasant to his
party. Among the other things he wiote
to Commissioner Eaton Of the Civil Sei-
vice Commission was the following: II
believe in Civil Service reform and its ap-
plcation in the most practicable form at
.aiuable, among other reasons because it
opens the door for the rich and the poor
alike to a participation in public place
holding; and hope the time is at hand
when oil our people win see the adyan-
taga OF u reliance for such an opportunity
upon merit and fitness, instead Of q de-
psndence upon the caprice or selfish In
tsrest OF those who inpudently stand be-
tween the people and the machinery OF
their government"
1t can hardly be expected that the
Democratic party will rise asone man and
call him blessed for the above expression ;
on the other hand curses will be plentier
than concentrations.

get one OF the harbor tugs to attempt to
pull her of, none Of them would venture,

Sirius before she can be gotten of. The
Aida was not insured.

WARREN, Pa, Sept. ,24-August Merrill
the young officer Of the Warren Savings
Bank whose suicide was telegraphed We'd

his tragic end through drink. Merrill had
been for several years employed as clerk
in the Savings Bank, otwhich Hon. LII.
Watson is President and principal stock
holder. He was intelligent anl capable
For come time he held the Office Of pay
ing teller in the bank, and his conduct un-
til recently was such as to merit the COM
meudation OF the bank officers and make
for him hosts Of friends.
Some tims ago 1t was learned that he
was drinking heavily, and, this fact COM
ing to the knowledge Of his superiors, he
was cautioned 10 stop it. He continued
to discharge his duties, but at times slight
mistakes, such as oyerpaying checks and
drsis, showed that his mind vas not
clear. About the l0sh Of the month he
went of on Two weeks leave, and it is
currently reported drank heavily during
his absence. He returned yesterday, re-
ported at the bank and said he would re-
sumo his duties to-day. lie then went TO
his home and the suicide followed almost
Immediately.
His aCcounts were all straight with the
bank, and the only assignable cause for
his suicidal act was the supposed fear OF
being discharged.
