J. P. McAllister says Hat Scribner Did not Do What Stilwell Accuses Him
 of Doing
From Mondays PRosPECroR.

From MonutN fkO>ff-' ioh.
 In the course or his speech at Bisbee on Saturday last Judge Stilwell took occasion to make an assertion that a few years ago M. D. Scribner, who is the opposing candidate on the demo- cratic ticket for county treasurer, re- ceived from San Francisco some x2O,- 900 with which to pay the taxes of the Southern Pacific company. and that he took the money to the treasuier's office and asked for full receipt for the taxes; that Mir. McAllister refused to give him full receipt and gave him a partial receipt. Mir. Stilwell then in sinuated in nmistakeable language that if Mir. Scribner had been county treasurer at that time he would have given the s. P. Go. A full receipt and the county would have lost part of the money.
 In orde- to understand the matter thoroughly the PRosPEcToR man went to Jas. P. McAllis;er this morning and asked him about the circumstances. When asked the question regsrdir g the time that this occur red, Mir. McAl- lister stated that in 1859 the Southern Pacific company declined to pay the amount levied for university tax, as its legality was questioned aad suit to test its validity was in the courts, and is still undetermined by the su- preme court oi this territory. The Southern Pacific company sent the money to pay their taxes through Wells, Fargo & Co.'S express, AS they always dc, with instructions to the agent to pay the money and take 8 receipt
 MT. Scribner took the money to Mir. McAllister and followed the instruc- tions of the Wells, Fargo agent at San FrancIsco-not the Southern Pacific company-and took a receipt for the money, which was for the full amount less the university tax.
 Mir. McAilister was asked: Did MT. Scribner ask you for partial re- ceipty"
 Mir. McAllister-'No, he did not"
 Reporter-"What did he do?'
 Nr. McAllister-"He simply tender ed the money and asked for re- c-ipt.":
 Upon furtier inquiry the PROSPECT OR found that the Southern Pacific Co. paid taxes last year less the commis- sion due the collector The courts also have under consideration the question of whether the people or the county pay the collectors fee, and the money was sent and paid in precisely the same way last year, less the amount of the fee paid the collector. Mir. Scribner was away in California at the time. and MT. McAllister says that c. D. Gage, who was acting agent during his absence, for Wells, Fargo X Co.,, brought the money there and asked for a receipt and got it, without any request for receipt in fnll.
 The story of Judge Stilwell was made out of whole cloth. There nev- or existed any such conditions

 NEW ioRK-Chairmsn Harriiy and his assistants to-day estimate that Cleveland and Stevenson vii: get PA votes from the following states: south- ern states l59, New York 36, New Jersey 10, Indiana l5, Wisconsin l3, Connecticut 6. Michigan 6. The only votes in this list regarded AS at all doubtful by he Democratic managers are the six votes Of Connecticut. If they are lost Cleveland will, they urge, still have 23S votes or l5 more than enough to elect The local Democrat ic leaders who have had time to make figures and estimates on the result of the election in this city and state all agree on two essential points. They agree that Harrison cannot come to the city line with more than 65.OO0 majority and that C'evelsnd's major ity in this city cannot be less than 60,OOO. That leaves a Republican majority of only 5000 to overcome by the vote from Kings, Queens and Richmond counties. The generally &C., cepted estimate of the city vote among the Democratic leaders is: Harrison los, 5000. scattering 1000, Cleveland ls5,OOO; Cleveland's plur- ality 10000. This estimate is based on total vote oi 3OO,OOO and there is every indication that number will be boiled
 TRENToN.-It is conceded by both parties that the coal combine matter will have less effect on the presiden- tial ticket than on the eovernorship and legislative campaign. For this reason it is thought, froL. the most careful estimates that can be made that Cleveland will carry the state by from 5000 to 6,,OO plurality. The in- dications are that the democrats will elect four congressman and the repub- licans three. The democrats will elect four State senators and the re- publicsns four. The composition of the assembly will be: democrats, 34, republicans, 26.
 LARAMIE.-The republicans claim they will carry Wyoming for Harrison by majority of 1.O0O to l,5OO, and they claim that their state ticket will be elected by majority of from 700 to 1000. Republicans base their hopes of good majority on the Nor nnon vote in Uintah county. The democrats also clam the state on the ground that the northern and central counties, where they are interested in the cattle invasion question, will go almost solidly democratic instead of giving large republican majority, as heretofore.

The latter. however, con- cedes the state tu the Pnpulists.

Boston, Dec 2t.-"The Crust of Society,""

"The Syndicate" i'm Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 21.--It is difficult to
say in just what category +. J. Swartzs
new play, THE Syndicate" produced at
the Girard Avenue theater, should be
placed. 1t Is generally conceded that the
piece is a success but it is also the general
opinion that the comedy is a trife too
broad, and that the flights into sentiment
are rather too abrupt, while the denoue.
ment is brought about in n painfully con-
ventional manner. The plot is amusing.
Two villages are separated by a creek and
are intensely jealous of each other. Thomas
Jefferson Slam conceives the idea of form
ing a syndicate for the purpose Of induciL,5
legislation to cause the removal of t
county seat to his village. OF course he
will be enriched by this if it goes through,
and equally, "of course" it doesn't go
through. There is II pretty love story and
a designing young man, which make THE
Syndicate" interesting. Mr. Swartz is
bright newspaper man, and doubtless
knows how to use the blue pencil, with the
aid of which his play can be vastly i'm
proved. CHARLES CREsTON.
