had some business that he wanted to at
tend to. He particularly requested
Thomas Leary to see that he was called.
Mace, with his mistress, Mollie Harrison,
facing on the alley leading east from
There are several buildings in
the alley, occupied principally
by colored people, all of which
are houses of prostitution. Sunday
morning, as Leary states, he forgot to
call Mace, but was reminded of it by
hearing a man calling some of his
neighbors. Leary opened the door of
the house where he was at the time and
which opens upon the same alley, and
noticed johnson, who was considerably
intoxicated, walking by. He asked
Johnson to call Mace, who replied that
he would, and he stepped up to Mace's
house and knocked on the door, and
thought nothing more about the matte,
until William Smith, a colored boy
callen him to the door and said that
Johnson was lying dead IN the alley.
He opened the door and saw johnson
lying there, but supposing that he had

the door saw johnson pounding OF
Mace's door. Just then the report of
revolver was heard, when johnson lean
ed forward and then fell over backward,
into the alley, his feet resting on til,
door step. Burgess at once went to him
and being satisfied that he was deat

from this point, as far north as the

pie. regardless of political creed. TO
make the Investigations OF the charges
Of bribery and corruption in the election
of Senator Payne thorough. P%romlnent
democrats from Ohio say that the men,
bers Of the democratic party in that
state are evidently thoroughly in earnest
in the matter, and are anxious to have
the matter probed to the bottom. They
do not hesitate to admit the
gravity Of the case and it's apparent
foundation ON facts, and there is a be-
lief with many Of them that 1t will re-
suit in the loss of his seat to the senator.
So confident are some of the Ohio peo-
pie that this will be the final result,
that they are beginning gravely to dis
,cuss the prospect as to bis successor.
Governor Foraker seems to favor it, and
there are many who venture the predic-
ton that he will be occupying the seat
now held BY SenatorPayne before another
year passes.

The Famous Morey Letter Outdone by
San Francisco Patriots29.
There are some events connected with
party manipulations which are rich, as
well as too important for use as political his
tory, to be omitted from publication, even
though il be in exposing fraud perpetrated
upon political enemy. A clearer-cut
piece Of political deviltry has not come TO
light since the famous Morey letter, which
was sprung upon the public in the closing
hours OF the Garfield campaign, than the
plot, effected through bribery, to have the
dirty linen of DR.. G. c. O'Donnell's family
carried 10, and exposed in a Chinese
laundry, with view TO e1ecting
his candidacy for Governor upon
the anti-Chinfse ticket. In order to bring
about a semblance of such fact, partially
paralyzed and simple minded lad named
Chris. Krudener. whom DR.. 0'DoDnelI
had taken into his family, was bribed to
secretly obtain some OF the family's cloth
ing as wash, and take to certain Chinese
laundry at q given hour. The plan was
carried out successfully as laid by the in
famous plotters to gain political advantage
by acting a lie through a person not ac-
countable for his action. and the fact that

lished as a news item by the city papers

ever, the Morey-like plot was unearthed
