A Deluded Victim Cuts Down n shade Tree
TO Discover the Charm.

A Deluded Victim Cuts Down n shade Tree
TO Discover the Charm.
NEW ORLEANS, June 25.-That yoodoo-
ism is not wholly dead in New Orleans is
proved by suit recently brought against
John Sandmaker, railroad man living in
this city. who has been in bad luck and bad
health lately. A friend induced him to
visit fortune teller, who declared that he
had been voodooed by an enemy. The
charm was in a certain tree, she said. and
until that tree was cut down, or the charm
discovered, he, Sandmaker, would continue
to suffer. Sandmaker went at once to his
home at the corner of Claiborne and Fourth
streets and began work on the tree. IT was
a tall magnolia. In the very heart of the
tree, in the center OF a mass of wood. the
gri-gri charm was discoyered-toe nails and
hair of the exact color and character of
Sandmaker's-these being the materials
usually employed by the voodoos in bring
ing bad luck on an enemy.
The discovery created great excitement
among the neighbors, particularly among
the negroes.
Next morning he was served with a war
rant from the First Recorder Court, charg-
ing him with malicious mischief, sworn out
BY Mrs. Burke, who owns the house In
which he lives. The case, however. was
settled in court without further proceedings.
Sandmaker offered to make good any loss
he might have caused, and Mrs, Burke
withdrew the charge.

its Golfers were empty, but he was paid back
upon this occasion, at least.
But the real secret of the Senator's hold
on Quay is the aid which he extended to the
latter when he was candidate for the nomi-
nation for State Treasurer, and after he had
been elected. Desmater, with tact and
management which excited Quay's admira-
tion. handled the Northwestern delegates
for Quay ia the convention, and a terward
quieIed the opposition of the oil producers
when the campaign was hot, and when an
Independent movement on the part of Emery,
Lee and others in that section might have
started fire Of opposition which would have
been dangerous.
1t is now said that Senator Delamater
failed to keep his pledges made to the pro-
ducers In this fight, and that he and Quay
allowed the Billingsley bill, which the pro-
ducers say IS what was promised them, to be
defeated when they could have saved it.
This is said to be the secret of ex-senator
Lees emphatic opposition to the nominee.
The Senator has not as yet said his say upon
this point, bur may do SO later.
LOUIS ARTHUR wATREs.
Louis Arthur. Watres, named for second
place on the ticket, was the choice of the Re-
publicans of Northeastern Pennsylvania for
the nomination OF Lieutenant Governor.
Ever since his election to the State Senate he
has been in the field as an active candidate
for that Office and had a credltable showing
of friends IN the list OF delegates. Senator
Watres was born at Mt. Vernon. Lacka-
wanna county, April 81, 1851. He is one OF
the most successful young men in business
and politics In that section of the State. He

The Decision In the Sugar Trust Case Made
known TO Wall Street Operators Five
Days Before Deliyercd-Johu C. sheehan n

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,
NEW YORK, June 25.-A serious scandal
is involved In the manner in which
the decision OF the Court of Ap-
peals upon the Sugar Trust was made
public. There is no doubt among
Wall street men that the substance of the
decision was prematurely made known as
long ago as last Friday to certain operators,
who used the information to make the
raid on the trust certificates, which
broke the price on Saturday from " to 60.
There were peculiar circumstances also con-
nected with the actual giving out OF the de-
cision at Saratoga on Tuesday, and witbal
the officers of the Court of
Appeals are seriously compromised
by the affair. Two or three prominent men
at the head OF big Wall street financial in
stitutions were quoted yesterday as saving
that John c. Sheehan, Secretary of the
Aqueduct Commission, called upon them
last Friday morning to negotiate ior the use
OF premature knowledge of the decision,
which he claimed to possess.
He is said to have desired
in one case to induce the gentleman visited
to operate for their joint account in the
market on the strength OF the information
he claimed to possess.
1t is reported that he was rather curtly
repulsed in two instances, and that
when he visited some prominent
sugar people they refused to
take any stock in his alleged in ormation

The information and made use OF it in the
market are not made public.

WASHINGTON, June $50 many Re
publican members of Congress from Penn

that it was almost impossible to find
one from whom to get an opinion in
regard to the Pennsylvania nomination.
Those who could be found were unanimous
in their belief that Delamater will poll the
usual Republican majority. Colonel
Bayne said: "Of course, as I have
favored the nomination of Delamaser
all along, 1 am rejoiced at his vic
tory, but 1 am not surprised.
was we'll aware that he had strong lead all
the time, which could have been made
stronger had it been necessary. DeIamater
is brilliant young man, who has already
won his spurs, and he will make good and
popular Governor"
Representative Scull said that it wss
foregone conclusion that Delamater would
he nominated, and so none of the defeated
Candidates could be greatly disappointed.
D4lamater would doubtless be elected by a
gocc of-year majority.
NJ. CulDertson said he would have been
astorished had the convention made any
other nomination. Delamater had worked
up ais own canvass thoroughly,
and this, with the knowledge that
Senator Quay favored him, was enough to
give him round majority. There was no
doubt of his nomination.
The voice of several Democrats who were
seen was unanimous that ii was all Qusy's
ldcings and the people of the State would
new see whether the kicking Republicans

in 1882 became the Republican candidate
for State Senator in the Twentieth district,
which comprises in large degree the mla-
ing portion of LackawaIna and Iuzerne
counties. Although the district is Demo-
cratic, Watres' personal popularity won
him an election by handsome majority.
He was reelected in 1886 by an increased
majority. In 1887 he was appointed In
spector Of Rifle Practice for the National
Guard by Governor Beaver on account oil
the record for craftsmanship made by Com

Nominee-But Little Enthusiasm Mani.

FaiIure-LitrIe Comment Made.
MlsPEcIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.i
INDIANA, June 25.-The news of
Delamater's nomination, while not
expected. created much feeling. Re-
publicans as prominent as ex-Sherif Daugh-
erty, A. s. Patton, T. E. Hildebrand,
and many others declare tonight they can
not see how they can support him. The
majority Of Republicans in this vicinity op-
posed Delamater at the election of dele
gates, and they are more bitter now than
they were before the primaries.
A leading Republican says tonight that
this county will give majority for Patti
son if he is the nominee of the Democratic
party. Another says the Republican ma
jority in November will not exceed 1900.
The Delamater Republicans are saying
very little and will not give an
opinion. They seem fearful of pro-
voking new antagonism, and while
they do not seem to fear
the result in November they are evidently
timid. If what these people say now is ad-
hered to throughout the campaign it is
thought Senator Quay's harmony scheme is
failure in Indiana county.

COLUMBIA, S. c., June 25-There is
trouble between the races near Bamberg, in
Barnwell county. 1t began on Saturday,
when party of negroes took boat belong
ing to a white man and went fish
ing, after being ordered not to use
it. When they returned the negroes were
set upon by the whites and one of the white
men was injured. Two nights ago Robert
Kearse and q number OF his friends went
to the house OF the negro who appeared
to be the leader of the party. The negroes
were in ambush near the house, evidently
expecting an attack, and fired upon the
whites, eight Of whom were wounded, but
none dangerously.
The negroes then fled. Joe Glover, sup
posed to have been in the party, has since
been captured and severely whipped. It is
expected thatif those who took an active part
in the shooting are arrested there will be
further trouble.

rsPKcrAl TELEGRAM TO THE prsPArcH.l
HARRISBURG, June 25.-Following are
brief biographical sketches of the candidates
named yesterday:
Senator George Wallace Delamater, the
nominee of the Republican party for Cover
nor of Pennsylvania, was Al years of age on
March 81 last. He was reared in the law,
but abandoned the legal arena soon after his
admission to the bar for the more congenial
pursuit of banking. The Senator has been
generally represented as man OF millions,
whose purse was without limit, and open to
all demands of party Doodle. As matter
of fact, his fortune is limited, although his
expectations are great, but his liberality
with what he has has not been overesti-
mated. Senator Delamater is worth proba-
bly, $4,000 in his own right His father,
who sat in the State Senate before him, is,
however, one of the wealthiest oil and iron
producers in the State, and perhaps is sew
eral times a millionaire.
VERY AGREEABLE SOCIETY.
Socially Senator Delsmater is one of the
most agreeable of men. His manner is gen.
tie. and he is most companionable. His
personal honor has never been questioned,
either in public or private life, and be is
free from afectation, is natural and makes
friends easily. The Senator keeps his face
always closely shaved, except upon the
upper lip, where he wears florid mustache
OF considerable proportions, but not quite
so flowing as that of his friend, State Treas
urer-elect Bower. He thus looks quite as
young as his years, if not few years
younger. His residence, at Meadville, is

Signs Now Much More Apparent Than In the
Year 1882.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
READING, Pa, June 25.-The morning
Herald tomorrow will say that the nomina-
tion of Delamater was forced upon the Re-
publican party in the face Of protest such
as has never beeu heard in its history. The
signs OF revolt at this stage of the proceed
ings are much greater than in 1882. 1t is
doubtful whether even with the political
acumen and sagacity that Quay is reported
to possess, he can stem the tide of revolt that
will begin tomorrow.

The outlines of Senator Delamater's
career in politics are well known. Mayor
of Meadville (1S76), Senatorial delegate to
the State Convention GS7S), Chairman of
Crawford County's Republican Committee
(1S7S), Garfield election (8SO), and SEN
ator (1SS6-90). His ability as a political
manager is undoubted. The Senator's
enemies iaunt his youth and alleged mex
perience in his face. Those who know him
best, however, know HIM for man of wis
dom in emergency-wise and shrewd, and
altogether a man of superior ability in
political warfare.
HIS HOLD ON QUAY.
Many stories to account for the bold he
has upon Senator Quay's regard have been
told, and it has been openly stated that at
critical moment he advanced the Senator a
large amount of money. This story is not
entirely baseleSs, and it is a fact, in addi-
tion, that Senator Delamater did give the
National Committee lift last year, when

awakened no outward manifestation Of en-

strong hopes of the Adiutant Generals sue

There is a slight feeling of disquietude
