Against Them.

Against Them.
When it was stated yesterday that Alder
man Cassidy had said he had afidavits in
his possession against Roger O'Mara and
Inspector McAleese whose contents would
discount the penitentiary surprises, re-
porter for this paper went to see the Squire
and asked him whether that was so.
Although I did not use the same words
which 1 have been quoted as saying" said
the Alderman, ''still can tell you this,
those afidayirs contain some very sensa-
tional matter. 1 am not in a position to
make anything public now. because every
thing is not entirely complete, but so soon
as I can, everything will be given the wild
est publicity"
Up to last night neither Roger O'Mara
nor McAleese had made an appeal from the
decision of the Alderman

He Says the Matter Will be Submitted TO
the Boards Counsel.


George A. Kelly, President of the Board
of Inspectors of the Riverside Penitentiary,
said yesterday that the suspension of DR..
Maharneke was not due to the recognition
of his guilt by the board, but he thought
this was the proper course to pursue until
the investigation is concluded. In regard
to the statement that he would have Miller
arrested if he came near the hearing, Mr..
Kelly SAYS lie did not say so.
He also said that the Limitation of Nc
PhiIlamy's witnesses was not to choke him
of, but to get through with the investiga-
tion as soon as possible.
In regard to what will be done after all
the testimony is heard he said they would
submit the matter to the counsel of the
prison board. eff he deems it sufficient we
will proceed to law ana have the courts
settle what the punishment shall be-"

THAT MUNICIPAL ACT.
Mr.. Crumrine Tells How Il Was Declared
Unconstitutional.

Unconstitutional.
Boyd Crumrine, the Supreme Court Re
porter, went to Harrisburg. Mr.. Crumrine
stated that he did not know on what
grounds the Court reversed its decision on
the Constitutionality of the municipal act
of 1874, but Judge Green would hand down
the opinion in few days.
Judge Ermentrout, he said, in suit on
mechanics lien, declared the ffty-seventh
section of the act was unconstitutional,
when there was no necessity for it, and
decided that The entire act was defective.
The Supreme Court affirmed the decision.

TRACTION WATCHMEN NEEDED
To Prevent Further Accidents on the Citi.
zens' Traction Line.


SIT seems strange to me that the Citizens
Traction Company doesn't place watch
man at the corner of Penn avenue and Sev-
enth street, after the accident to Mr.. Yates
has shown them of its necessity" said 8
prominent citizen to DISPATCH reporter
last night. 81 have seen the cars slip
around the corner many a time without
hearing the gong, after they left the other
corner until they were right onto one, and,
indeed, it is wonderful that there have not
been more accidents at that point.
II don't blame the gripmen altogether.
They have their hands full with the levers,
and, as the two corners are so close together,
they do not have chance to properly give
warning before they shoot around into sight.
IF railroads are compelled to have watch
men, and the cable roads are trying to COM
pete with them on time, they should take
the same precautions. On this score they
could take good advice from the Pittsburg
Traction Company, and at least it might
save them heavy damages in the future"
