their recent purchases. One young gentle
man claimed that he only paid ST. 80 for

Serge Satin, and written guarantee in
regard to the representation of the mater

that be purchased round trip ticket to

paid S13 for a far inferior suit which,
with the fare included, cost him $14 If

wise our readers to patronize the Econo-

SHENANDOAH, PA, February Sat
five o'clock, when the nOn-union miners
left their work in the Shenandoah City and
West Shenandoah collieries, lot of strik'
iny Polanders attacked the men with stones.
A sQuad of half dozen coal and iron police
went at once to their assistance
They made sharp fight and took a
couple of prisoners, one OF whom
they landed in Magistrate Shoe
makers office, but the crowd
rushed for the two policemen with the
other prisoner and began TO club them.
Finding themselves down and their lives
in danger, they drew their revolvers
and fired into TIE crowd, which scattered
in all directioon. Mike Hetfren, young
man, received ball in the mouth, and is
badly injured. John Gather, an iron
founder, was shot in the arm, and Poland
er was shot behind the ear. A shot was also
fired by Polander but with what effect is
not known. 4 Borough officer then ar
rested both policemen for shooting in the
Borough They were taken before Squire
Monaghan
The two magistrate offices are on East
Centre street, a square and half apart.
That whole space WAS densely packed
with peOplA, a large portion being
Polish, who were wild with
passion. They surrounded both offices,
yelling for the officers and saying,
Lynch them," Kill them," etc.
Suddenly stone was thrown at
Squire Shoemaker's window In q
minutes the fronts OF both offices were
riddlcd with stones and their inmates had
tough scramble for safety. Some
bruised bodies resulted, but no serious
damage was done, except to the offices,
which are wrecked.
The town is still in an uprosT. Men
are mad with passion and drink, and no
one appears to have any power to quell
them

Convict Granville Tells His Little Story on
on the Stand.
COLUMBUS, o.; February 8 3-Algernon
Granville, of Chicago, one OF the defend
ants and witness for the State in the
tally sheet forgery cases, was placed on the
stand this morning. In October, 1885, be
testified he had q desk in the Office of
Montgomery, the defendant, and did short
hand work for him. He made tabulation
Of the returns for Montgomery on the
Wednesday or Thursday following the
election and made mistake of ten votes
in one of the townships, which Montgom-
cry discovered and thus ascertained his
defeat.
The defendant said they must do some.
thing. In short time Allen o. Myers
ran into the Office and said John R. Nc
Lean was bound to be elected United
States Senator, no difference what it cost !;
that the Legislature was Republican by
one msioIity, and if they could secure the
election of Ed Young, from Franklin
county, the Legislature would be one
Democrat, ana that would elect Mclean !;
that the only way 10 do was to fix the re-
tnTns; that they had done the work before
the election in Hamilton county, but it
W1aid be done afterwards here; that he
wanted to give the Republicans a dose of
their own tOddy for the performance of
1876 in the South, and asked the witness
to 20 ahead with the work as lie was an
expert penman.
The witness said about this: Montgomery,
the defendant, come into the Office and
said the work had TO be done, aud sent the
witness 10 DR.. Montgomery's Office with
instructions to wait Myers aud Mont
gomery had private consultation in one
corner of the room. The witness met the
defendant at the office OF DIR. Montgomery.
He came in the back way and had a bun
die OF tally sheets, there being seven or
eight Of them In envelopes.
At this point the attorneys for the de-
fendant objected to the character of the
evidence and entered upon long argu-
ment. The point of objection OF the de
fense was to Joining the two cases, that OF
the Ninth and Thirteenth ward torgeries.
This the State was proceeding to do in
furtherance Of the conspiracy theory, a
point which claimed much attention by
the attorneys yesterday. McSweeney for
the defense, in support Of his objections,
quoted largely from the decisions of Judge
Thurman, when on the Supreme Court
bench. McSweeney continued his argu-
ment to the close of the forenoon session.
