CLEVELAND AND GORMAN.
The President Eieot Will Consult tho Son
ator FROM Maryland.

afor From Maryland.
BALTIMORE, Dec. @.-The Maryland mug
wumps are already trying to exert an in
fiuencs with Mr.. Cleveland as against the
regular dem0cratic organization in the mat
ter of patronage In this state. They do not
want Senate German and ]. Freeman
Raisin, the Baltimore city boss. to control
1t as they did during Mr.. Cleveland's for
mer administration The so-called demo-
cratic reformers now run an afternoon
paper in Baltimore. A prominent demo-
crat tells this story of a"yisit to MIR. Glove
land last week OF several of tho parties in
terested in this paper and in the reform of
democratic machine methods in Maryland.
The gentlemen called at the Cleveland resi-
dence. and after sending in their cards they
were invited to the rooms OF the president
elect. After Mr.. Cleveland had welcomed
them. one OF the gentlemen said:
"Mr. President, We represent a leading
democratic newspaper of Baltimore, as edi-
tors and p,oprietors," giving the name Of
the paper.
Mr.. Cleveland. expressed some surprise
when he heard this statement, and added
that he did no know that such a paper was
spnblished. This was something of u shock
20 the gentlemen from Baltimore. who have
boastad of their great support of CIeve-
land. They then began talking to him in
regard to the management and mismannce-
ment of the party Organization in Mary
land. but before they had gone far Mr..
Cleveland said that owing to the proximity
of Maryland to the national capital he was
able. during his administration to inform
himself pretty thoroughly of Maryland
politics.
"By the way. gentlemen" he added,
"how ia my friend Mr.. Rasin ? He appears
to be as we'll informed on Maryland politics
as any man / ever met. and his fidelity has
created a very favorable impression"
To this a number of illusions compli-
mentary to Nh. Rasin we're added. The
visitors were very much disguised over the
unsatisfactory interview, and left saddened
at the failure of their mission.
A prominent official who was q delegate
to the national convention n voted for
ing of the attempt Of the reformers to an
tagonize the leaders Of the regular demo-
cratic organization, said:
ut Is idle for 8ny w~ell-informed person
to talk about Senator German not receiv-
ing full recognition from the next admins
tration. and / feel assured that no open
enemy of the senator will be appointed by
unlikely that now n then some one may
receive an appointment to a position for
which Mr.. German might prefer some one
else. but it will hardly be a man who has
incurred his enmity. or who is likely to do
injury to the senator's side of the house.
II MIR. Cleveland had no other reason to
count the friendship of senator German,
the close vote in the senate would prompt
him to do so. as Maryland's senator could
do the president much harm if there were
an issue between them, as there are a num-
Der of democratic senators who would only
be glad of an opportunity to show their
want Of love for him."

For He Is n Democrat.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3O.-There is more or
less talk about what Senator Hill will do
when Cleveland gets in. And speculation
has been rife as to whether he would do
everything in his power to.impair Cleve-
lands success. A Tammany hall magnate
says that it is an insult to Hill to suppose
for a moment that he will do anything to
besmirch the Cleveland administration.
Senator Hill." said this authority to-day,
will do everything in his power to help
Cleveland make a success, not because he
has any liking for Cleveland. but because
he wants the democratic party to be az
proved by the people. There was a good
deal of talk, you remember. about Hill go
ing to bolt during the campaign. He didn't,

The case OF Ohio against DR.. David p.
Maxwell, now serving four years sentence
in the penitentiary for attempting to pro-
duce an abortion on Lille Bordner, from
the effects of which she died, will go to
the supreme court. The attorneys for the
defense have had the case under advise
ment for some time and have reached a
decision. That decision is that there are
sufficient grounds to carry the case 70 the
higher court.
Both sides are busily engaged in pre-
pairing papers. A motion must first be
argued before the supreme court to
allow the case TO come before the court.
Shonld thiB motion be overruled, the case
ends there snd Maxwell will continue in
the penitentiary. Should it not be over
ruled the case will be heard before the
supreme court.
The grounds upon which the case will
bs taken up embrace the points which
came out in the trial, and concerning
which the attorneys had many lively tits.
The first claim will be that the court
erred in oVerruling m otion to quash the
Indictment.
1t will also be alleged that the court
erred in overruliDg a demurrer to the pc
tition.
The main cause for taking the case up
is the expulsion by Judge Taylor of state
ments made by Lille Bordner to DR..
Goodrich and Mrs. Gully. 1t viii be re-
membered that upon this point the at
torneys had lengthy arguments during the
trial of the case,the defense claiming thai
the declarations made by the girl was a
part of the res gesta. 1t was on this point
that Judge Foliett of the circuit court dis
sented with his colleagues.
The briefs are being prepared and will
be printed in few days.

PULLED THE STRING.
Az Original and DECIDEDLY Unique
Device
Adopted by a Husband to Brighten His
Wife Into confessing That She Ran
Around With Other Men.

A divorce case in which some very
unique testimony was introduced was
tried before Judge Pease today. The
parties to the suit are Sarah j.. Kline and
Samuel Kline, the latter being the de-
fendant. John C. Welty represented the
plaintiff while Messrs. Upham and Kline,
the latter brother OF The defendant, con-
Quoted the defense. II will be seen by
that statement that the defendant was
brilliantly defended. Kline had filed an
answer and cross petition in the case and
charged his wife with running around
with other men. She in her petition
alleged that he treated her cruelty,
neglected her and was very jealous of her.
The unique part of the story came out
when Mrs. Kline was on the stand. Sho
stated that her husband was so insanely
Jealous and was so Jealous 10 his endeav-
ors to worry her into confession that he
resorted to scheme which is entirely
new and decidedly original. For
several nights while the parties lived
in Canton she heard strange noises
at the window of their bedroom and he
would tell her that some Of her admirers
were at the window trying to get her to
come out and fly to their embrace. She
resented the implied insult and declared
that hobgobblins and spooks were CON
spring against her and that the house was
haunted.
One evening there came a more than
usually loud rappiDg at the window, and
the wife jumped from the bed, imbued
with the idea that she would solve the
mystery or die in the attempt. Kline ALEC
jumped for the window but his wife got
there first and her hand struck strange
object dangling from the window sash
Holding it up she found it was nothing
more nor less than "tic-tac." From
her story it appears that the husband
amused himself by lying in bed on the
side next the window, pulling the string
attached to q large nail which hung JUS
over the window pane. With this contri-
vance he had frightened his wife nearly
to death in his endeavors to make her be
lieve that there was some one at the win
dow. The scheme worked well for awhile
but whether or not ii is one which may bt
generally adopted by Canton husbands
the attorneys for the defense did not ven
ture an opinion.
The court after hearing the evidence
was of the opinion that there were sufti
cient grounds for divorce, hence as sooI
as the costs are paid decree will be is
a,ad
