FITZPATRICK BLAMEs WARNER.

St. Louis, Nov. 29.-The Republic
ington:
DIR. Fitzpatrick, the defeated and
much disappointed aspirant for the
surveyorship Of the port at Kansas
City, left for home last night with
blood in his eve. When he encounters
the Hon. William Warner reserved
seats ought to sell high. Fitzpatrick
declared before leaving that there
would not be a grease spot OF Warner
left in six months. The doctor blames
Warner, and properly SO, for his disap-
pointment. Warner made the appoint
ment OF Griffin q personal matter with
the president and won.
Fitzpatrick has been saying lots OF
unpleasant things about Warner during
the past twenty-four hours. He de-
clares that Warner was not honestly
elected to congress IN the fall of 1884.
lie says he can prove that 800 ballots
asst tor Judge Philips were stolen from
a box and $50 Warner ballots substi-
tuted. This information cannot do
much good now, but coming from a

he reaches home, and as his remarks
will be interesting he ought to be
assured of a good audience. The doc

ton to him is because he is of Irish

church. He fully realizes now that 10

The next time that Fitzpatrick has a
favor to ask of the administration be
will seek to forlify himself with in
dorsements from Alex. Sullivan, Pat
Ford, John Beggs, Dan C%Oughlin and
other reliables. In the meantime the
doctor is in a very disturbed state
of mind.

ash and one of elm. Sitting down
the gods shaped man and the wo-
