Keeley, of Motor Fame. in Trouble.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. lO.-The court
oi common pleas this morning made a
rule to issue an attachment against
John keeley for contempt OF court in
not obeying the order OF the court. II
also discharged a rule toopen sealed
package which is in the hands OF the
court and which is said to contain a
of the Keeley motor. II
also continued the injunct ion against
Keeley until iurt her notice. The suit
in which keeley is thus brought to grief
is one instituted i'm equity by Bennett
&. Wilson some time ago, with "a view
of determining whether keeleys ap-
paratus corresponded or was identical
with n certain motor device which
keeley assigned to Wilson in 1879 un-
der an attachment. keeley can he
taken mt any time and committed to
the county Jail. Pending the pleasure
of the court the attachment, however.
was not placed in the sheriff's hands
to-day. This is regarded as an inlica-
tion that the court has no desire To
inilict the degrading penalty of impris-
onnent on man whose contempt
simply embodies the advice of counsel
upon which he acted.

THE BOTTOM FACTS.
Just How the Murchison Letter Came to be
Written.

POMONA, Cal, Nov. 1O.-Notwith-
st tanding diligent work by the detect
ives, assisted by every democrat in
Pomona and hints from the demo
cratic state committee the secret oi
the Murciiison letter has been faith
fully kept until to-day, and then the
disclosure was made in the Pomona
Progress, whose editor has the au-
thority o make the authorship public.
The letter to Minister West was
signed by Charles r. Murchison, and
written here 10y young English-Cana-
dian named James Cosner. He had
made his home in Pomona for seven
years, and was mai uralized last April
at Los Angeles. IN this campaign he
was one Of the first tOdeclare for Har-
ri-On, while his two cousins, Andrew
and George Wilson. who have also re

to-day that during ~ heated argument
with his Democratic cousins and an
lrishman last August on Cleveland :
attitude toward Great Britain the
thought suggested itself to him to write
tn Sir Charles Tupper and get his pri-
vate opinion concerning Cleveland :
attitude ON the fishery question. He
talked with two Republican lrishmen
and former Demoerats-F. q. Haley
and Patrick &. Tanner, both lawyers.
on the subject, and they suggested that
if an opinion favorable to Cleveland
could he obtained from Tupper, and
also from Minister West, and could he
spread ut the proper time in the cam
paign, it would lie another Morey let
ter sensation and lie Of inestimable
benefit to Harrison. The name Of
Charles +. Murchison was signed to he

name OF English relatives OF Cosner.
Mr.. COsner admits the authorship Of
the Murchison letter to-day. but does
not admit writing letters to Fish and
Tupler, although he had "a hand in
their composition. lie says he knew
when he received the lei ter from West
that its publication wonl'l makea sen

suit so disast rously to that gentle

confident aud had talked much oi vie

them but their opponents. In hewilder-
mcnt. they are now searching about for the
cause of their defeat. There are hut two
opinions here one Is that tariff reform
was the cause. The other, and D., lar the
more popular idea, is that Mr.. Cleveland
defeated himself. And this belief is spread
ing every hour. People are saying that he
should have endorsed IIili and that he
could, with n little firm interference, have
q,cled til. mayoralty fight in New York.
They say that he sll ,uli not have bei.ve.l
that he was .lrarcr To New York city DEM

The outlook is very blrah for the presi-

York democrats since his Inauguration.
The appoint ment- lac made were distaste-
ful tn his former friends there; til. advisers
he sought were not of their ranks. Fair
child and Endiroit aud Dickenson were not
OF their ilk. The best thing that eau he
said of Cleveland politically, is that he has
had the courage Of his convictions, honesty
and political pluck of the highest order.
On Tuesday night the party receiving
election returns at the white house consisted
of the president, Mrs. Cleveland, Secretar-
les Whitney and Garland, aud several
minor d.pa rt mental officials, and represen-
tative Martin Foran. Col. Dan Lamont
read the returns up till midnight. when all
retired but the president and faithful Dan

these gentlemen said Ia each other during
the wee sma' hours, can only be imagined.

In the government offices work has practic-
ally suspended. Republican clerks now
make no concealment of their feaity &"
that party. The clerks appointed by the
present administ ration are resigned. The
only terrified employees are those who were
formerly republican and VIII" beramd Dem
ocrats after Cleveland was elected. Most
of this class have been in office many years,
and believe they would die IL they were put
out of their places. THESE men fear that
they are m arked and will be slaughtered 10y

w. H. Byars hands us an account
of what Fresno county, Cal, is doing
to demonstrate to eastern people
what they could find and enjoy on
the Pacific coast. No wonder people
come west when they see these ex-
hibits. 1t is to be hoped that Ore
gon will be well represented. 1t
must be remembered that the fol-
lowing is but one county collection.
That makes it the more enterprising.
The exhibit of Fresno county pro-
ducts for display at the reunion of
the Grand Army of the Republic at
Columbus, Ohio, went forward to
San Francisco yesterday. 1t was
loaded into a freight car and sent by
the II O'Clock morning express.
1t was a superb collection of ofFresno
county's wealth in whatever form it
appears, and the directors and
secretary of the board Of trade, feel a
pardonable degree of pride over the
results of their labors.
There were the following class dis
plays, handsomely arranged and so
numbered that when the exhibit
reaches Columbus each detail ex-
hibit will be placed in its proper
position: First and foremost comes
the Fresno timber display; then
Fresno county wines from Barton's
vineyard; display of cereals from
Fresno milling company; display oi
canned fruits, consisting often dozen
automatic glass jars filed with Sc
lected fruits of all kinds; display Of
canned fruits and cereals from
Selma and Kingsburg.
Pyramid of sun dried fruits and
raisins, this years fruit, packed by
Mrs. NJ. f. Garner. This pyramid
contained apples, peaches, pears,
nectarines, nuts, figs, plums, prunes,
cocoons from the silk worm, raisins,
apricots, etc.
Then came a specimen Of tall corn,
Egyptian corn, sheaves Of grain,
alfalfa and all the other grasses in
digenous 20 the county pumpkins,
melons, pomegnnates, sugar corn,
brown corn, palms.
The display Of ore was immense
and very rich. Almost every mine
in the county was represented and
some Of the specimens were very,
very rich.

Politically Divided.

The Methodist Bishops are
evidently divided in politics.
Bishop Vincent declares himself a
republican. Bishop Hurst has just
written General Fisk that if he had
n thousand votes he would cast
them for the prohibition party.
Bishop Fitzgerald has published
five reasons why he will do the
same. 1t is not probable that any
of them are democrats. Here is
a republican commentator OF
Bishop Vincent that might have
come from the columns of the States
man. The Caledonia IN. "
Advertiser says that che recognizes
the fact that the object of the prohi-
bition party will be more nearly
attained through the republican
party than through the democratic
party. In other words, Bishop
Vincent isn't natural-born, con-
summate jackass." (Why didn't it
complete the sentence and say "like
