DavidTerry to prevent his making an at

ONE MURDERER HELD.
George Teaters Must Answer for Mrs.
Sanders Death.
THE DOLLHOUSE TRAGEDY STORY
The Ghost of Andersonville Still Frighten-
ing That Quiet Neighborhood.
A FAMILY OF BOLD THIEVES BROKEN UP
-spEc1AL rrLEeRAM TO THE p1spArcH.,

WASHINGTON. PA, October 1.-THE
preliminary hearing of George E. Teaters,
the young Wheeling man who is charged
with the murder of Mrs. Elizabeth Sanders
at the plank road Toulouse last Friday
night, took place in the grand jury room,
before Squire d. NJ. Donehoo, this alter
noon. The time set was 2 o'clock, and an
immense crowd had gathered about the
place. Colonel w. W. Arnett, of Wheel
ing, and John M. Braden, Esq, of this
place, defended the prisoner.
The evidence introduced by District At
torney w. S. Parker, for the Common
wealth, consisted in evidence chiefly con-
cerning the whereabouts of Teaters and the
Durr boys on the evening of the tragedy. Wit
nesses were introduced at the opening of the
hearing who testified that they had seen the
defendants and two other fellows at Lagonda
about 8 o'clock in the afternoon, and had seen
them going down the road toward the toll
gate. They were seen after they passed the
toll gate, and after they had got into
the buggy OF Moses Bolden and Ambrose
Wilson, near the house of W.. B:
McKennan, about quarter Of mile north of
the dollhouse. Tracks were found and fol-
lowed from tenant house near McKennan's to
point near the home of the late Mrs. Sanders
Inese Tracks, IL Is tnougnt Dy "iIne>s JUN Mc.
Kenuan, were made by pair of shoes that
were identified as those worn by Teaters on the
afternoon of the tragedy. Colonel Arnett
shook the testimony of this witness very sue
cessfully, making it appear that the witness
was not thoroughly acquainted with the situa-
ton.
DR.. W. r. Thompson was sworn add testified
as to the condition of the woman when he had
been summoned, and the character of the
wound. Witnesses were also examined who
had tracked Bush Durr and George E. Teaters
from Allison's to Taylorstown. accompanied by
the little yellow dog which afterward hung
itself in Chief of Police Greers yard
An effort was made by the Commonwealth to
rest the case here, but the defense agreed that
there was not sufficient evidence to hold the
prisoners, and the ante-mortem statement of
Mrs. Sanders was offered. In this Mrs. Sanders
testified that she thought Teaters was the man
who shot her. The case here rested. and Justice
Donehoo held the prisoner for trial at the No
vember term of oyer and terminer.

between IS to go miles an hour. The storm
was passing eastward and is likely to cross the
path of incoming vessels. Fair weather pre-
vailed in all parts of The country west and south

Priddy and McClelland to Meet To-
Night to Make a Match to
Run Five Miles.
BOTH RUNNERS WANT A CONTEST.
The Final Deposit Made for the Interesting
Sprint Race Between J. Priddy
and Hammond.
TIE LOUISvILLES ARE SHUT OUT.
Results Of the Running Rscss-Bassbar News and Gen
sral Sporting Events of the Day.

There is now something like a certainty
about race taking place between Peter
Priddy and E. c. McClelland. The former
has made up his mind to run McClelland a
fve-mile race on this day four weeks for
$3.50, or any amount side and all the gate
receipts. Priddy desires that McClelland
will be at this Office this evening at o'clock
with money to put up to guarantee race.
On the other hand the McClelland party
want to see Priddy here with their money
and as a result one of the most sensational
races of recent years is likely to take place.
Each man is stated to be record breaker at
the distance named and the amount of envy
existing between the pair is more prompting
toward a good race than all the money that
could be staked. Both parties are sure to
be on hand this evening to sign articles and 1t
is a fact that they both have been exercising
energetically on the quiet for some time.
Doubtless If they run on good track and on
a fine dav there Will be a large crowd to see
them, as one of them is certainly the best i've
mile runner N the world. Who the one is re-
mans to be seen. Both have extremely good
judges behind them and lots OF money.
There will be a very interesting race of 120
yards between Joseph Priddy and Tom Ham
mond. They and their hackers net at this
office last evening and put up the final deposit
lOT EnelT race. Inc contest Is interesting Ue-
cause each man is stated TO be flyer" under
cover, and the stakes, $780, do not represent at
all the money invested on the result. Each man
is looking extremely well and the en-
terprising Secretary of the park, John
Tener, has it in good condition, so that
an excellent track can be selected if the
weather remains fine. The fact is that Expo
sition Park promises to become famous place
in all kinds of sports. 1t is well managed. The
referee and pistol-tirer for the race are to be
chosen on Monday, and if the parties cannot
agree we have to select these officials. In the
meantime, aad to prevent any delay. our sug
EeStion is: Q. D. Thompson for referee and
George Smith for pistul-frer. The race is an
honest one, and nobody will question the in
tegrity of the two men named if they will act.
1t is TO be hoped that they will because the
race is of the kind that will tend to popularize
honest sport OF professional kind.

foundry, at SIC 25 per ton.
The coal trade is more confident, and
September prices now rule. Tin is 111c
lower, but lead is strong at 5.9c, and copper
steady at 1870 to 17c. OF the
TEXTILE INDUSTRIES,
the increasing demand for cotton and wool
bears witness of prosperity, though the pro-
duction Of print cloths at present prices is
held Improbable.
Another great industry has been making
notable progress. The number of hogs
packed at the West from March to October
1 was 1866, 900, against 5, 900, 900 last year,
an increase of nearly 35 per cent. Specula-
tion in wheat has made further progress
this week, the price rising 1Tc on small
sales, but the exports are practically
stopped; In September only 595, ,259 bushels,
against 2,223, 104 last year went from At
lantic ports, aud thus far in October only a
small part of last years exports, for four
days OF this week, 1853, 900 bushels, against
49, 900 last year.
Corn also goes abroad but little, having
advanced during the week only 1sc,
while oats have risen ~. But the
EXPORT MOVEMENTS OF COTTON
is extraordinarily large, in Septem ber 207,-
and in October thus Iar there is large in
crease. helped by the yielding in price 1-16c
this week.
The exports of provisions are also very
heavy in September, $11 ,91s, LAG in value,
against $8. 707, ,645 last year, and this also
continues, prices being steady. In petroleum
exports there WAS an increase in quantity
last month of 75, OOO, 900 gallons, against 59,-
100000 last year. Thus, in spite OF the sup
preston of exports of breadstufs by high
prices, the increase in value of the principal
products was almost per cent in Septem-
Der, and aggregate Of exports for that month
will not vary much from the remarkably
large value ofthe imports.
The new tariff has caused an advance in
prices of some kinds of goods, which, to-
gether with the rise resulting from partial
failure OF crops, has moved up the general
level of prices materially, though less
than per cent on all commodities since
October 2. But the higher range of prices
accounts in part for the quick absorption of
a circulation far greater than that of last
year.

A TRUE ROMANCE.
a WANDERING BOY FINDS THAT HIS
MOTHER LIVES.

He Tells Remarkable Story of His Life and
Parentage-His Father and Mother
QuarreIed and the Boy Taught That She
Was Dead.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
ERIE October ia few years ago lad
came to this place in an unexpected sort of
way. and Joined the ranks of the newsboys
under the euphonious term of 'Swipes." The
boy was perfect mimic, could sing and dance
and was something of lightweight, and as
result he soon set up as dictator in his realm.
About one year ago he left the city and Joined
his fortunes with those of "Whistling Jack"
and went West, but on his way back here fell
i'll of a fever in Chicago. One night. while
half dreaming and half delirious, he thought
he saw his mother leaning over him. From
that moment the fever left him. and he tells
the following story among his old companions
here to-day:
Il was always afraid of the press and:the po-
lice till now, but my fear has turned 20 rever-
ence, for they have done me a service for
which 1 can never be too thankful. l am
nearly 10. and 16 years ago l lived with my
parents In Cincinnati. My father was Master
Barney" an actor, and my mother was an
actress. They did not get along very well, and
they had quarrel.
.My father picked me up out Of the cradle
and took me to Brooklyn, where he soon mar
ried woman named Shalar. They gave me
the name of Albert Shalar, and have always
borne that name. When l grew older my
father told me my mother was dead, and of
course 1 believed him. My stepmother soon
tired of me and cast me out, and it has been
hustle with me and fate ever since. 1t was
about two and one-half years ago that my
father made confession, which doubted at
the time, but which now know was true. He
lay in delrium in the hospital, and taking
my hand said in trembling voice: ALBERT, 1
have deceived you all these years. Your
mother still lives. She Is an actress. and when
am dead want you to find her and tell her
how sorry am that we quarreled.'
HE died soon after. 1 did not think he
knew what he was saying, but when I lay in the
cot at the Chicago hospital, and my mothers
face came to me. knew that she must be
alive. After earning littls money there 1
went to Cincinnati at the suggestion of the
New York Clipper, and the dramatic editor of
the Commercial published a card for me. Po-
lice Superintendent Dietsch, acting on inforna-
tion which he received in Cincinnati wrote to
Boston. Chief Cyrus Small responded and
said in his letter:
"1n the case of the boy Shalar regarding
whom you have communicated with me, beg
leave TO inform you that the boys mother still
lives at No. 1l5 West Fifth street, She is re-
tired actress. and is known as Fannie Mcguire.
She IS the wife of Thomas Lewis. of Wilson's
Minstrels, and she is overjoyed at the prospect
of finding her long-lost boy"
The many friends and patrons clipped, and
"Swipes" is on his way to join his mother. He
Will arrive in Boston tonight. -
