1rmAx NOT BE MIR. ELY.

The Office of Prosecuting Attorney
 Has Been Rendered Him, Hut He
 May Not Accept-Opinions of Several
 Prominent Lawyers-AttorneyM Mat Ihewman and Niles Stand the Best Chance I'm Case of EIy's Refusal to Accept the 0face.
 One of the principal topics of discussion about the city now is who will be | the probable successor of Prosecuting | Agent Fowler, who has been selected as as I sistant clerk of the Superior court. A few l days ago the county commissioners practical l ly decided to ask Attorney W. H. Ely, of the firm of Case, Maltbie & Ely, to accept the l position as soon as the present incumbent had rendered his resignation. MT. Ely has | been urged very hard to accept the office. | Mr. Ely is we'll qualified for the place. 1 A Arumor that he had decided not to accept was rife yesterday afternoon and evening and reporter visited several prominent law ! yers to verify the same. All who were seen stated that they had heard that Mir. Ely had decided not to accept this position although he had not informed the county commission CTS of his decision.
 A leading attorney said that MT. Ely had told him that he would probably not accept, as he would not be able to attend to both the duties of prosecuting attorney and to his own business. lie alSO salO Iubt hs MT ChSo was away from the city considerable of the time it necessitated his being at the office the
 greater part of the day.
 Mir. Ely, when seen last evening, was non-
 committal He admitted that the office had
 been informally rendered him, but that Mr. Fowler had not yet sent in his resignation and therefore he did not care to commit him self.
 This makes it look very much as if he still had the affair under consideration, notwith- standing what he had said yesterday after
 noon. He may not have fully decided upon l what action to take in regard ts the affairs or he may have changed his mind since yesterday noon. It is thought by many that he will accept, while there are an equal | number who are positive that he has fully decided te decline. It is very likely that MT. Ely will not reash any decission until MT. Fowler has tendered his resignation. which will probably not be till the middle of next week.
 0. B. Matthewman is looked upon as 8 probable candidate should MT. Ely refuse the position, and new one has appeared in the field in the person of Attorney William P. Niles. The latter is in every way fitted for the place.

Frank c. Harrison is Dull at Learn
 ing by Experience-Arrested For
 Forgery.
 Frank 0. Harrison was again arrested yes- terday afternoon for practicing the same fraudulent schemes which got him into a good deal of trouble some weeks ago. He has been boarding at Mrs. Ayhalt's boarding house on Crown street since he was released from jail.
 When Mrs. Ayhalt presented the fellow with his board bill of $6 Wednesday Harri- son immediately drew up an order for that amount on the firm of Armstrong & Co.,, signing the name of Lyman. Mrs. Ayha1t thought it strange transac- ton at the time, but when she tried to col- lect the amount she thought it little more strange. She was informed that no such man as Lyman worked at Armstrong's. Detective Reilly was soon upon the trail and smart young Harrison soon found that his sharp scheme was again rewarded with nothing but durance vile.
