A RAILROAD PRESIDENT ARRESTED.

Charles w. Schofed. who has an Office in the

rested there yesterday by Detective Reilly. He
was indicted Tor oh aiming money under faise rep
reservations from Jacob +: WyckOff, of No. 5l2
statements made to HIM by Mr.. nchotield. Mr..
Wyckoff states that IN the latter part of 1879 he
bad $40, 900 par value OF bonds OF the Utah and
Pleasant Valley hailr0ad Company, of Utah, of
which Mr. schofeld was the president. The bonds
were worth about fifty cents on dollar. and were
used to secure notes given by schoheid. Mr.;
Wyckoff says that the defendant came to him and
said that he would like to substitute $4,000 in
The thousand dollar bonds of the Wasa, ch and
amount of the Pleasant Valley bonds. He repre-
seuted, according to Mr Wyokof's statement. that
the W asatch bonds were fully IS valuable as the

hundred dollar bonds, which also purported to be
first mortgage bonds inquired about them, and
was told, as he says, by Mr.. schofeld, that those

ROVER CLEVELAND.

when the New York Democratic State
Convention met in 1881 he was the
most prominent candidate for Govern
or. He was nominated and elected by
the largest majority, log, 900, ever
given any candidate in any State in
the Union.
Governor Clevelands administra-
tion of the Governorship was singular
ly successful. He saved the State
millions of dollars in the erection OF
the capitol. He reformed the insur-
ance bureau, which had become q
mere political dispensary. In fact,
he reformed every branch of the gov
ernment. He was very liberal In his
vetoes, vetoing number of bills pass
ed by the Legislature, and he kept up
constant warefare against extrava-
gance and corruption of every kind.
He was elected President over Jas.
G Blaine, last November, and was in
aueurated in Washington March 4th
last, amidst unparaleld rejoicing on
the part. of the Democrats. His adj
ministration, thus far, has given en-
tire satisfaction, though some of the
politicians are doubtless chagrined at
some Of his appointments.

Grover went to Buffalo, where his un-

He held this office for three years,

faithfully did he administer the Office,

Grover Cleveland's election as may

him from local into national promin-

and subsequent administration are IA

election itself was almost an unparaH-

by the largest majority ever known,
thus demonstrating the unbounded
confidence which the people had in the
special fitness of their candidate to-
carry out the reform aud in his unas-

CoNsUL-GENERAL AT BERLIN,
one of Baltimore's most prominent
German citizens is given a post for
which by reason of his scholarly at
tainments, and indefatigable business
energy, he. is most fttingly adapted.
Col. Raine is the proprietor and editor
of the German Correspondent, a daily
paper enjoying large circulation
among the many German citizens OF
Baltimore. The Colonel is a very
wealthy gentleman, as besides the
revenue derived from his journal, he
has a large income from other invest
ments, so that the small salary of $4,-
600 will not deter him from maintain
ing the style of living demanded by
the dignity of his position. 1t is
well-known fact that the American
representatives in Europe are the most
poorly paid Of all foreign representa-
tives, and their salaries seldom suffice
to keep up their station, SO that they
are compelled to draw literally on
their private resources to maintain
themselves on an equal footing with
their brethren.

HON. THOS. A. HENDRICKS,
Vice-Presfdent of the United States of
America.
Fo1. the Sentinel.

Fo, the Sentinel.
Hon. Thomas Andrews Hendricks
was born in Muskingum county, o.,
Sept :, 1919 lis father removed to
Shelby county, Indiana, when Thomas
was only three years old, and the lat
ter has ever since resided in that State.
He received a liberal education,
graduating at Harvard in 1841. Two
years later he was admitted to the bar,
and rapidly rose in his profession
He was chosen member of the Indi-
ana Constitutional Convention in 49,
90, and took an active part in its de-
liberations. In the fall of the same
year he was sent to Congress from the
indianapolis district, and was re-elect-
ed in 1852
After the expiration of his second
term in Congress he was appointed
Commissioner of the General Land
Office by President Pierce, and was
continued in this position by President
Buchanan. He resigned in 1859 to
take the field as the Democratic can
didate for Governor of Indiana against
Henry S. Lane, but was defeated by
a small majority. In 1862 the Dem
ocrats carried Indiana, elected to the
United States for the term ending
March 3, 1869. He made national
reputation while member of this
body, and was the recognized leader
Of the minority. His hold upon the
party was shown in the New York
convention of 1868, when, at one time
he led all the candidates for the Pres
idency, and must have received the
nomination had it not been for the
PendIeton movement in favor of Ho-
ratio Seymour.
The same year he was nominated a
second time for Governor of Indiana
and although the State went Republi-
can two years before by a majority of
| 1900, he was defeated by less than
thousand majority on the heaviest vote
that had been cast in the State up to
that time.
After his retirement from the SEN
ate in 1869 he returned to Indianapolis
and resumed the active practice of his
profession. In 1872 the Democrats of
Indiana again demanded that Senator
/ Hendricks should be their standard
bearer, and he was placed in the field
against his earnest protest. The re-
suit showed his great popularity in the
State. Notwithstanding the disasters
of the Greely campaign and the large
Republican majority In the State, he
was elected over Gen. Tom Brown, his
opponent, by majority of 114s, al
though every other candidate on the
Democratic ticket was defeated, with
one exception.
Gov. Hendricks would have re-
turned to the Senate in 1875 had it
not been for the fact that the Lieuten-
ant Governor, Republican, would
have succeeded to the Executive chair
This, of course, put his candidacy out
of question. - - Is -
