CONGRESSMAN KELLEY.

The Veteran Pennsylvania Victim OF
Cancer, and Not Only His Career in Com
gress, but His Life May be Ended in u
Very Short Time.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 4.-The Father OF
the House of Representatives, the cham
piou of protection, the veteran legisla-
tor. VIM. ID. Kelley, of Pennsylvania,
has probably been on the floor OF
floor of the House for the last time. On
the day when the Fifty-first Congress
assembled Judge Kelley was in his
place. and since that time he has prob
ably been at the Capitol twice or three
times. His enfeebled condition was the
subject of much comment, but only
few know the nature of the judges all
ment. 1t is now fully developed and
it's activity is most virulent. just be-
low the rear of Judge kelley's jaw is
cancer, and it is spreading rapidly into
the throat. So quickly has it worked
that the afflicted man can only speak In
whispers, and then not without pain.
The swallowing of nourishment IS
matter of considerable difficulty and
locomotion can only be INDUCED In to a
very small extent. Several of Judge
Kelley's relatives have been here dur
ing the last few days, and his daughter,
Mrs Hosmer, wanted to take him home .
with her, but his condition was such
that removal was regarded as impossl-
BILE by the physicians. so the judge IS
still in his room at the Biggs House.

Plot.
ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 4.-The arrest
of the notorious Nihilist leader, Pierra
Gross, at Warsaw. has been productive
of disclosures far more startling than
any of the alarming revelations which
have come to the police within the last
few days, appalling as they have been.
from letters and documents concealed
in his clothing the most damning evil
dence is obtained against many persons
high in imperial favor and authority,
contemplating not the assassination OF
the Car alone, but the murder of the
entire reigning family as we'll. AL
ready many of the consplrators have
been taken into custody, and those still
at large are under espionage or being
tracked by relentless police officials to
the end of their Judgment in prison,
whence they will almost certainly go to,
their death. Several of the implicated
persons were apprehended while at.
tempting to leave the country.

He was prosperous merchant IN New

when matters began to take turn for
the worse and he found himself unable

begun against Gaylord in New York
courts, but he left the city and came to
Philadelphia. Babcock followed and

Some interesting correspondence has

Judge Silas Woodson, of St. Joseph,
which resulted in the Attorney General
ruling that only boys who have been
regularly convicted of a felony and mis-
demeanor can be admitted to the State
Reform School at Boonville. Judge
Woodson held this. and the ruling of
the Attorney General sustained him in
the position he took. The Thirty-tifth
General Assembly passed an enactment
which provided for. making the reform
atory a refuge for homeless boys, but
this, of course, is invalidatcd by the
ruling of the Attorney General which
is important, as under it the reform
school becomes purely penal in its func-
tionS. Hereafter none but boys con-
victed as before stated can have admis.
sion to the institution.
