PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 27.-Both
branches of the city councilto 1a accepted
the resignation of City Treasurer Bards-
ley. Six Democrats in the select branch
entered a formal protest against allowing
a man charged with such a serious crime
to resign. Richard Coolers, the business
manager OF the Record, was elected to fill
the unexpred term OF Bardsley. The
Democrats refused to take any
part IN this election. While
the meeting was in progress the
Democrats endorsed W. Redwood Wright,
Governor Pattison's appointee. Bards-
ley's resignation will take effect Saturday
next, and then Philadelphia will have two
city treasurers, one named by the city
council and county commissioners and one
by the governor. The question of who il
who will probably be brought before the
courts at once.
Investigation today developed the fact
that Bardsley had considerable dealings
with other brokerage firms besides Glen
d%enning & Co. and the inference Is that
he speculated through these firms. The
report that Bardsley bad hypothetical
the securities of the sinking fund is de-
MED by Mayor Stuart. District Attorney
Graham today took out another warrant
for Bardsley's arrest. charging him with
perjury in violating his oath of office in
using public money for his own gain.

Deals " Inch Recall the PHImY DAYS
of the Stock Business.

Mr.. Bartlett Richards of Chadron who
has a contract to supply the Pine Ridge
Indians with 100000 pounds OF beef
has completed the final arrangements for
the purchase of the Angio-American
cattle herds and property. The sale
includes about $4,000 head of cattle,
hundreds of acres of grazing lands and the
sheds, etc. at Oelrichs.
The amount invested Is not made
public, but it runs up into the five figures
pretty high.
From the Billings Gazette it is learned
that Matt Murphy of Buffalo has bought
all the herds OF the Bay State Cattle
company located in Montana and the Big
Horn Basin. The Buffalo Echo Is
authority for the statement hat while in
New York recently, Mr.. Murphy closed a
deal with the Stoddard & Howard Live
Stock companY-the l. Y Bar, with
ranches in johnson county and Montana
whereby the latter sold their entire
outfit to the Murphy company. The
purchase included 81, 900 head of cattle
and 100 head of horses, together with
ranches, Improvements, range privileges,
etc. The terms are not publicly known.
By a former purchase the same company
obtained the Story herd OF Montana, for

thrown in, and a guarantee of 1000 9
and 3 year-old steers.
Altogether the purchases of this year
aggregate 1000 head of cattle, increasing
the holdings OF the Murphys to $4,000
head. A conservative estimate places The
value of the cattle alone at 81, SOC, 900.

Thomas Hunter, who shot J. A. Burke
at Cumberland Gap, last evening, was
forcibly taken from the authorities this
evening and was hanged to tree. His
body was then riddled with bullets.
This is the first instance of lynch
law in this section of the coun-
try. The circumstances leading to
the lynching are as follows: The first
act of the tragedy took place at Cum
berland Gap, Tenn, in which j. A.
Burke. telegraph operator, was shot
and instantly killed by Hunter.
Reports are conflicting as TO
what caused Hunter to COM
nit the deed. but from what
can be learned from reliable sources it
seems that Burke and Hunter fell out
out over some trifling matter in sa-
loon. The latter then left, and, procur-
ing shotgun, laid in ambush for
Burke. The latter was on his way
home, when the negro discharged the
contents of both barrels at him, tear
ing ont his eyes, cheeks and teeth. He
died Instantly. The murderer then
fed, but was captured here this morn
ing and taken back to the Gap by
a circuitous route to avoid meeting a
mob which had gathered to lynch him.
1t was one of the most cold-blooded and
unprovoked murders that has ever dis
graced this section. The murdered man
was we'll known and liked here. He
