phia, was brought up from Moyamen-
sing prison this morning and arraigned
in the Court Of Quarter Sessions before
Judges Fell and Wilson on seventeen
indictments charging him with loaning
money as a public officer, deriving gain
from the deposit Of public money, and
converting public money to his own
use. When Bardsley was asked how he
plead, he pleaded guilty to every count
on the Indictment.
District Attorney Graham addressed
the court and stated that, in view Of
Bardsiey's plea and the iact that his
counsel has not had time to examine
the bills Of Indictment, he would not
press for sentence being pronounced ut
once.
1t was then arranged that this day
two weeks should be set for hearing the
evidence for and against Bardsley, and
court could then weigh it and pronounce
sentence. In the seventeen indictments
tai amount Of money involved is $685.
405.
While arguing for two weeks delay,
counsel for Bardsley said; ~ am pre-
pairing statement for Mr.. Bardsley, and
it will take me all Of that time to get it
ready"
This caused sensation and opened
anew the rumor that the ex.city treas.
urer intends to make clean breast Of
everything.

THE LONDON STRIKE.

The Pirate Buses ReRplng Harvest
The strikers Growing Uneasy.
LONDON, June 9.-The position of the
striking employees OF the omnibus COM
pany is, to all intents and purposes, un-
changed. The road car company only
started twenty-five ofits omnibuses to-
day and the general omnibus company's
vehicles are at a complete standstill.
The result naturally is that the "pi-
rate" omnibuses are reaping a harvest
OF fares. The pirates, it should be
added, are plying with the consent OF
the employees omnibus union, and IN
addition several Lminor omnibus lines
have been permitted to start, their We.
hicles having conceded the hours OF
work and other terms asked for by the
men.
The strikers now show signs OF alarm
at the great increase in the number OF
pirate" buses and arc discussing the
advisability OF limiting tho number OF
these vehicles which the union will
allow to ply for passengers with the
idea of putting the public to as much in
convenience as possible, with the view,
the strikers claim, OF bringing the pub
lie to support the strikers, Strong
squads of police are protesting the lines
which are running and surrounded by
crowds.
A number OF road cars loaded with
non-union men paraded the streets this
afternoon. The occupants sang and
cheered Justify and were answered with
sroans by tiiestFlEesa eSciteipent
was intehBe, BIT the police preserved
order. The road car directors met and
explained to the men tonight that it
was impossible at present to increase
wages and pay the dividend proposed.
Aresolution pledging the men to resume
work in the morning was carried
unanimously. This will enable the
company to start 100 cars. Burns nd
dressed mass meeting OF strikers in
the streets and declared that he had
collected ESQ in three minutes in the
county. council in behalf of the strike
and that victory was certain. The
speakers were hooted at by non-union
men, but mounted police kept order.
The concession made means to the road
car company 10000, and to the General
Omnibus Company 10000 yearly.

giYen Yesterday.

given Yesterday.
Co1uMDus, ONO, June 9. In the
Elliott murder trial to-day John W.
Burton, a real estate agent, testified to
the shooting, which he saw from an up
stairs window. He located the different
shots up to the first four, saying W. ].
Elliott, the defendant on trial, fred the
first shot, the second came from the
crowd north OF Osborne, the third shot
was fred by Osborne, one OF the VIC
tins Of the defendants guns, and the
fourth shot was fired by W. ]. Elliott.
The defendants shots were all to the
north and northwest. The application
OF this latter testimony is in favor OF
the States theory that w. l.. Hughes,
the innocent bystander, was not killed
by Osborne. Much time was spent by
the defense in endeavoring to bring out
that there we're no women between the
combatants, but the witness said up to
the fourth shot there weres several ladies
within a radius OF five feet OF w. j.
Elliott.
At the afternoon session of the trial,
James A. Miles, local attorney, was
the principal witness examined. He
was an eye witness to portion OF the
shooting and confirmed the line OF the
prosecution on the disputed point, that
Elliott fred several shots after he had
gotten behind n woman passing on the
street. The taking Of testimony was
continued to Q p. m, and the court has
announced it will start IN hour earlier
in the morning in the interest of the
jury, who are becoming tired OF the
close confinement to which they are be-
ing subjected.

DEATH OF THE VENERABLE HAM
NIBAL HAMLIN.
His End Was Sudden and Peaceful-The
Circumstances Were Almost Coincident
With the Death of Won Moltke.

BANGOR, Maine, July 4.-Ex-Vice-
President Hannibal Hamlin died tonight
at s AS O'Clock. He was down town
this afternoon and went to the Tara
tine club rooms, where he was playing
pedro, when his head fell forward on his
chest. A gentleman remarked; "The
senator seems to feel badly"
Mr.. Hamlin said, II do"
Men gathered around him and he was
taken to a lounge. DIR. Robinson, who
was in the next room, attended him,
and Drs. Mason and Phillips were
called. No pulse was visible for an hour,
and it was thought they could not bring
him out. Finally he revived somewhat
and managed to articulate freely. The
doctors worked over him faithfully and
his family were sent for. Soon Mrs.
Hamlin, General Charles Hamlin, his
son, and wife and other members of the
for him in human power, but failed, ,and
he passed away peacefully at S:45. He
leaves widow and two sons, General
Charles Hamlin, a lawyer of Ellsworth,
and Frank Hamlin, now living in
Chicago.
Mr.. Hamlin had been perceptibly fail
ing for year, but seemed about as
usual this afternoon, and walked down
town.
The remains were removed from the
Tarrantine club rooms to the residence.
His son, Hannibal Hamlin, arrived here
from Ellsworth about twenty minutes
after his fathers death. His son Frank,
now in Chicago, has been sent for, and
the funeral will not occur until after his
arrival.
Hannibal Hamlin was born in Paris,
Oxford county, Me-, and was 80 years of
age. The deepest grief is felt on all
yet been made for the funeral.
He was elected vice-president of the
United States in 1860, and presided
over the senate during the memorable
war period, 1914.

BERLIN CABLE LETTER.
All Europe's Eyes Turned on Emperor
william in England.

BERLIN, July 4.-[Copyrighted by the
eign Office is receiving many kilograms
tonight indicating the character OF EN-
peror Williams reception in England
Both public and official interests are
centered on the reception at Guildhall
on Friday next. Diplomatic circles
here, and probably every government in
Europe, have reason to expect that the
emperor will announce the nature of the
treaty just concluded, maintaining the
dreibund. According to the belief of
official circles, it includes three
distinct agreements: One between
Germany and Austria, similar to
the first defensive treaty; another
between Germany and Italy, and third
between Austria and Italy. The Ger
manhattan treaty will be made public
if Lord Salisbury gives consent, while
that between Austria and Italy will re-
main unrevealed. The idea is that the
purely defensive character of the italian
agreement ought to assist in modifying
the irritation of France.
The Vossische Zeitung ridicules the
notion that the negotiations meant
nothing much practically. If, says the
paper, it only includes the cooperation
Of an English squadron, protecting the
Italian coast against the French, that
alone would secure to Germany an aux
iliary army, an English feet in the
North sea and Baltic, and would leave
the German army free for the protection
of the French and Russian frontiers.
The assurances given by the London
police of the safety of the emperor do
not satisfy the authorities here, and it
is said the reports of the Berlin police
agents who have been in England some
time, cause distrust regarding the pre-
cautions taken by the English authori-
ties. The Berlin authorities are urging
the English government to stretch the
English laws against preventive ar
rests, and, before. the emperor is ex-
posed to the view Of the myriads crowd
ing the streets, to make clean haul of
all suspected persons of whom list has
been furnished by the Berlin police in
London.
