Won't Be Downed by Gamblers,

Major w, H. McClaughrey, chief of the
Chicago police, is here visiting his son who
is Assistant Superintendent of the ALLIE
gheny workhouse. The chief had consid-
cradle to say in reference to the Garfield
race track, and he courts an investigation.
He is down on gambling, and intends to
wipe it out in Chicago. All differences be-
tween him and Mayor Washburne have
been settled. 1t grew out of misunder-
standing. He denied the statement that
he had run away from Chicago, and saws he
will be back in his Office ready to appear at
any time.

Or An Echo of the Tough Millionaire
Clubs Fatal Excursion.
In the moving of an ice box on the steam
boat City of Pittsburg yesterday, the en-
ployes found a diamond shirt stud. 1t
proved to be one lost by Buck Cornelius on
the night of the memorable excursion of
the so-called MIllionaires' Club a few
months ago, on which Sparrow Hughes was
drowned. The ice box stood on the deck
where Cornelius had been in fight and had
never been moved since. When the dia-

yesterday for hearing in court on charge
of aggravated assault and battery made by
w. j. Greenfield. The case grows out of
fight that occurred over a month ago. The
men were at a picnic at Alliquippa. Com
ing home row took place on the train, and
Greenfield had Morrison and two other men
arrested. Morrison was sent to the work
house for 80 days and after he was released
an information was made against him.

The Recognized Leader.

The Recognized Leader.
On the contrary it was shown that O'Don-
nell was the recognized leader. He had
more power over the men than the higher
officials of the Amalgamated Association,
for after they had failed to secure peace,
and after every means had been exhausted
by which the men had expected to destroy
the lives of the Pinkertons, O'Donnell did
succeed in inducing them to allow them to
go, provided they would give up their arms.
The case was then closed and Judge Por.
ter said he might be able to render a decis-
ion to-day and probably not until Saturday.
Among those who attended the hearing
were two Homestead merchants who were
willing to bail O'Donnell.
The grand jury is now busily engaged
on the Homestead cases, and is not handing
down many bills. Only three we're handed
down yesterday. A true bill was found
against Andrew Patterson, on a charge of
larceny, and ignored bills were returned in
the cases of Joseph and Margaret Metz, on
charges of assault aud battery.

A DECISION DELAYED.
0'Donnell Still in Jail Pending the
Courts Conclusion
ON THE APPLICATION FOR BAIL.
Attorneys on Both Sides Make Earnest Ef-
forts in the Case.
THE GRAND JURY ON HOMESTEAD CASES

The hearing on the application Of Hugh
O'Donnell, charged with murder in con-
nection with the Homestead riot, was con-
cluded yesterday afternoon. Judge Porter
reserved his decision in the case. Pending
the decision Mr.. O'Donneil will remain in
Jail. Before the court adjourned Judge
Porter said he might be able to decide the
case to-day, but he would not delay con-
clusion later than Saturday. A large
crowd attended the hearing yesterday. The
lawyers on both sides made strong efforts
for and against the prisoner. and several
times during the presentation Of the Com
monwealth's case Mr.. O'Donnell inter-
rupted to correct Mr.. Patterson, whose
speech was pointed and often bitter In his
review of Mr.. O'Donnelps part in the
trouble during and after the riot.
The first witness called yesterday was c.
c. Mooar, of THE DISPATCH. He was at
Homestead on the morning of July 6, and
at clock, in company with number of
reporters, went with O'Donnell to the tower
of the Bessemer converter. The defendant
was asked by Mooar what a number of men
some distance away were going to do, and
O'Donnell replied: ''They are going to
throw oil on the barges. We are going to
win."
Plumber Held Up.
A. W. Hauser, an Allegheny plumber,
was in Homestead on July 6. He was
stopped on the street by O'Donnell and
afterward he was recognized and let pass.
T. j. Mccarthy, who was formerly en-
ployed with the Carnegie Company as a
clerk, and who went into the mill to work
after the strike, was called. He saw
O'Donnell with the procession of Pinker-
tons after the surrender. He had gun,
but the witness did not know the circum-
stances under which he got it. He heard
man say "shoot the or they

done, there will be no trouble when it
comes to operating under the law on
election day.
Next week we shall give the text of a
digest of the law prepared under the di-
rection of the Republican State commit
tee. But the law itself is the thing to
go by, not any mans or committees

The town officers of at least one town
of the county are moving in sensible
way. They have had a set of instruc-
tions to voters prepared, setting forth
briefly and clearly what voters are to do.
These instructions are to be printed in

each voter. 1t is an excellent scheme,
and if it is generally initiated much
trouble will be avoided.

AN lNCONSEOUENTAL POINT

There is lively dispute going on be.
tween Democrats and Republicans re-
lative to the comparative amounts of the
appropriations made by the last and the
present congress. Mr.. Holman, for the
Democrats, AYERS that they were over
S33, 900 less during the session just
closed than during the last session, while
eX-Speaker Reed says they were 50,000,-
600 greater. 1t is said that figures wont
lie, but one or the other of these gentle
men seems to be able to make them do it.
But, after all, ii is question of no
consequence. If any money was wasted
by either congress, the country ought
to know it and to express by its votes its
condemnation of the party responsible
for the waste. If, on the other hand, the
carrying-on of the business of the gov
ernment required these expenditures,
whether they were greater or smaller
than those made by the other party,
there is nothing to raise row oyer. The
Job for each party to undertake is that
of showing where the other party has
squandered the peoples money.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The present State campaign ought to
go and see the doctor; its ailin'. Even
the newspapers can't raise any enthusi-
asm and the present outlook is that the
Green Moutain State, the first to sound a
warning or encouraging blast for the
great struggle in November, will cast a
mighty small vote next MONTH Gran
ite City Leader.
The happiest man in four States is
probably Lawyer O. b. Boyce of Barre,
who has finally succeeded IN capturing a
nomination for State senator from Wash
ington county after years of unremitting
effort. Boyce is party of rather less
than the average mental calibre, crank
in many respects. and consumed with
an Unsuitable thirst for any office within
reach. The other Republican candidate
for senator is j. w. Brock of Montpelier,
and Jim is described in the dispatches as
ian earnest prohibitonist, :" whereat we
smile.-[ Hardwick Gazette.
Our State election comes only four
weeks hence. Four years ago the canvas
had opened vigorously in these parts
several weeks earlier in the season. A
number of rallies had been held, editors
were busily engaged in mailing lies and
telling them, and the Republican masses
were yelling with the full vigor of their
lungs. This year the average Republican
hasn't yet got his blood up. 1t courses
very equally in his veins. There is no
discussion of politics; there is no excite
ment; there is no visible sign that an i'm
portant election is close at hand.-rSt.

WILL PROBABLY RESULT FATALLY.

Our Bridport correspondent writes :;
Miss Celia Fleury, who had her leg
broken in runaway last week, is in a
precarious condition and it is feared she
will not recover. A council of doctors
was held on Tuesday to consider the ad-
visibility of amputatlng the limb, but 1t
was decided that the patient could not
survive the operation
Miss Fleury, it will be remembered.
was thrown from wagon in this village
on Monday afternoon of last week and
had her left leg smashed by striking on a
stone by the roadside. That night she
was taken to the home of her sister, Mrs.
Oliver Delphia of Bridport. The doctors
thought from the first that the result was
questionable, as the hurt was a bad one
and the chances were altogether against
her recovery. They advised ampu-
tation, but the patient would not consent
to it, Blood-poisoning set in, and had
the amputation been attempted on Tues
day, the leg would have had to come off
above the knee. Miss Fleury was then
very weak and the doctors were of the
opinion that she could not survive more
than "a or SO hours. She was, however,
alive yesterday morning and in some re-
spects trifie better, but even now there
is not much reason for hoping that she
can get WELL

FIRED BY LIGHTNING.

Lightning caused 100000 fire at
Rutland on Wednesday evening. The
larger portion of the plant of the Har-
ris Manufacturing Co., extensive makers
OF chair stock and dealers in and workers
of lumber, with 100000 feet of lumber
and considerable finished stock, and two
buildings belonging to the Central Yer
mont railroad were burned. The Harris
company puts its loss at $4,000 and it
had $4,000 insurance. The railroads
property was insured. The fire originat-
ed in the upper floor of the Harris works
chair shop, the lightning following into
the building an electric light wire. In a
few minutes the structure, which was
filled with inflammable material, was all
ablaze. The alarm was quickly given
and the firemen turned out and worked
with a will. 1t was the most disastrous
fire Rutland has had for some time.

THEIR OBVIOUS DUTY.

Our esteemed Republican contelnpor-
aries about the State. several of whom
we quote elsewhere, are lamenting the
dullness of the campaign and bewailing
the general lack of interest in matters
political. The downcast brethren in
clude both those who favored and those
who opposed the head of the Republican
State ticket. The former should not be
down in the mouth: they should, rather,
set the pace, so to speak, for the other
journals of their faith. They should point
out the strength of the ticket, tell of the
glory its election will spread knee-deep
and sky-high oyer the State and the con-
tiguous commonwealths. eXpatiate on the
need of big Republican majority in
Vermont for the encouragement of the
party in the doubtful States, and thus
arouse an enthusiasm that will be so
strong that it will grip every Republican
voter by the ear on the morning of cleo
ton day, lead him to the polls and make
HIM vote. Enthusiasm is the one thing
requisite and necessary. and it is the
business of these journals, instead of
bawling about the shocking dullness of the
campaign, to arouse it or suggest plans
for otherwise obtaining it. An eminent
statesman has said of his party's national
campaign, 1--WE must have a virtuous
administration, even if we have to buy
it," Perhaps enthusiasm can be pur-
chased somewhere or somehow. Any
way, it must be procured. Weeping and
gnashing of teeth because of its absence
will never do, at any rate.

COUNTY COURh

The attention of the county court is still
occupied with the contest over the will of
the late Phelps B. Smith of Bridport, and
it is likely to be so occupied for some
days to come. Over 80 witnesses were
called by the proponents, whose testimo-
ny was not all in till Monday night.
Then the contestants began to put IN
their evidence, and they are still at it.
1t is probable that the rest of this week
will be consumed by them and that the
case will not get to the jury till well
along into next week, as there is consid-
cradle talking to be done by the lawyers S
after the testimony has been heard. Mr..
Bliss will make the opening argument
for the pror He will be followed
by Mr. Wilds and Mr.. Ballard for the
contestants, and ex-Gov. Dillingham;, for
the proponents, will make the final argu-
ment. The case eXcites comparatively
little interest, so far as the general public
is concerned, though the larger part of
the population of Bridport and Addison
and many from the surrounding region
have been here as witnesses on one side
or the other or as spectators.
