Charged with Illegally Registerinr.

Edward Kelly, who was arrested yes
terday afternoon on charge of having
fraudulently registered at the First
precinct of the First ward on Saturday,
was arraigned on that charge at the
Municipal Court this morning. His
counsel, Henry @. Turner, asked for a
continuance until Wednesday evening,
which was granted. Kelly came to this
city from Brandywne hundred about
March 25, and was ignorant that
the law required three
months residence before registering
This ignorance seems to have been shared
by Marshal Mahsffy. who was one OF the
registration inspectors, and who after.
ward swore out the warrant. Mahaffy,
1t is said, knows Kelly we'll and knew the
length of time he had lived in the city
la fact, Kelly made no pretenss Of hiding
it from the inspector, II is said, who then
allowed him TO register, but when they
learned the provisions OF the statute a
warrant was issued for his arrest.

Interviewed,
Tax Collector John ]. Dpugherty pub.
fishes a card to day. This card states
that he will not collect any more taxes.
No reason is assigned and his attorney.
Hen. Charles B. Lore refuses to talk and
says he does not desire Mr.. Dougherty to
talk, as the matter may eliminate in a
suit.
1t is generally understood however, that
this action upon the part of Mr.
Dougherty is based upon the question of
his right to collect taxes under the pro-
visions of the Five Commissioners bill.
That he is acting under the advice of
counsel Is not questioned There is much
diversity Of opinion among ths lawyers
as to the true meaning Of the bill.
Mr.. Lore said. however, that he did
not know that Mr.. Dougherty had pub
lished such a notice.

A TRUST AND NO BUST.
The Big Harvester Trust Conspires to
Fool the Farmers.
Asa Bushnell's Son.in-Law Indicates
How It Was Done.

COLUMBUS, Jan 15-[Special. People
who seem to know something about the
recent Harvester Trust, laugh at the report
that the Trust no longer exists, One OF
the leading business men in Northern
Ohio said here today that the organiza-
ton of the Harvester Trust was made too
public for the good of its combine, and
fearing bitter opposition from the far
mers of the county, the members OF the
association concluded to meet for the
purpose of dssolving, when in fact they
met and organized a secret combine,
which still exists and is as strong as any
combination ever organized for the
purpose of squeezing the farmers. Hon.
John Il. McGraw of Springfield, son.in.
law Of General Asa Bushnell, when asked
as to the truth of the report said that he
would not say that there was such an or
ganzation, and would not attempt to de.
ny that such an organization existed
MIR. McGrew said that he could see no
reason why the farmers should oppose
the combination as he believed that II
would be 80 their benefit. He also said
that close combination would be formed
or else the Harvester men would fight
each other harder than they ever did be-

Those NJ d. Public Y .sterday.
Report Regarding the Condition Of the
County Jail and Other Matters of In


The Grand Jury Just discharged was one
of the best which has ever served the
county, and having a number of cases of
vital importance to the perpetuation of
peace and good morals IN the county,
their work was of high order and re-
cieves the appreciation of all lovers of
good laws. Following is the official pre-.
sentiment:
We, the Grand Jury for the term of
court A. ID. 1891, beg leave to submit the
following report: That we have, in obe-
dicnce to the law and the orders of the
court, visited the county Jail and examin-
ed into its condition, treatment of prison
ers there confined, ETC., and after care
fully examining the same, we find that
the rules heretofore prescribed by the
court for the government of prisoners
have been properly cared Tor and treated
10y the sheriff and his attenGauts, and the
Jail in as good condition as it IS possible
to do.
We find that the kitchen i'm which the
cooking is done for the prisoners is not
properly ventilated and would urgently
advise that two windows he placed in the
south side of said room at once.
We would also advise the removal OF an
unused range from the dining room of the
sheriif's residence as il is no longer used
for cooking purposes and the room can
not be properly heated by such range and
it is practically Of no use and prevents the
placing of a stove therein.
Respectfully submitted,
j. =. WILLIAMS,
