BUzzARD's BAY. MASS, Aug. 20.-Ex-
President Cleveland and Mrs. Cleveland are
very much annoyed by the reports which
have been sent out from here regarding
themselveA
The story that their little daughter was
allowed to visit Onset camp grounds, where
thousands OF people had ooagregated, uuat-
tended by either parent, was, Mr.. Cleve-
land says. entirely without foundation, aud
the report of Mra Cleveland's narrow es-
cape at the depot yesterday was entirely
uncalled for.
While Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland pay little
attention to such reports, they arc besiezed
with letters from friends all ovor the coun-
try who are anxious for perticulars, and it
greatly annoys them.

failure OF the Democrats State COM
mittee to nominate chief justice OF
the court Of appeals last nigh. is said to
indicate disagreement OF the commit
tee as to the advisability of nominating
Judge Peckham. Nominations for
iudgeships are usually made without
conc est, and Murphy and Sheehan see
ing that there were signs of a contest
resolved to postpone the nomination.
The State committee will be called
together again weok after next, it is
said.
Preparations have been com pleted for
the meeting of the State league Of Dem
ooratic clubs at Chicknring Hall next
Monday. Its expected that Cleveland
and Hill will be present, although no
promises have been received from tn EN-.
On the following day the national con-
vention of Democratic clubs will be
held in the Academy of Music. All in
dications point to a successful conven-
ton. Representatives of Democratic
clubs in every State in the Union will
DC present. IL IS Still hoped that Mr..
Cleveland will deliver an address.
All the members of tho Democratic
national campaign committee are ex-
pected to be in the city next week. The
Western members, Congressman Cable
and E. G.. Wall, will probably come east
to confer with their associates and Mr..
Cleveland and Senator Ransom, who has
been conducting the campaign in North
Carolina, will have time to come to
headquarters again.
All things considered, next week will
be the liveliest one of the campaign.
Mr.. Cleveland had comparatively few

TO BE TRIED FOR TREASON.
Extra Proceedings to be Had
Against the Strikers.
warrants Issued For Thirty-three Home
stead Men, Charging Them with the
Above Onense-The Question Is as to
Whether Armed Resistance to Law Is
Trenson-The Cases VIII Attract tho
Attention of the World

PlTrsnuRG, Oct. 1.-[Specisll-C Chief
Justice Paxson has issued warrants for
the arrest of thirty-three Homestead
men charged with treason. This is the
hrst time that the charge Of treason
has been brought in any State for acts
arising from strikes or labor troubles.
The question is as to whether armed re-
sistance of law is treason.
Ali the judges of the supreme court now
present in the city consulted over the
cases yesterday. District Attorney Bur
leigh and T. Q. Knox wers sent for and
held long consultation with the chief
justice, after which tho justices con-
suited and then District Attorney Bur-
leigh and Knox were instructed and tho
chief justice signed warrants for the ar
rests.
The most novel part of the cases will
be their subsequent disposition The
chief justice will hear application for
bail and before the cases go to the grand
jury he will call that body before him
and deliver to it special charge on
treason, fully defining the crime and
commenting on the cases. Should true
pills be found proceeding never seen
before will occur. Chief Justice Paxson,
as eN-otficio judge of the court of over
and termintr, will sit in that court for
Allegheny county and try tho cases. 1t
will attract the attention OF the world
and make the cases of world. wide no.
toriety.
Brennan & Cox, the attorneys for the
strikers. are highly indignant over what
they term the persecution of the defend
ants, and they made some very pointed
remarks about the cases and those en-.
gagged in prosecuting them. They claim
to have no fear about the outcome They
limited that the long-contemplated suits
for treason against the Carnegie people
would now be pushed. O'Donnell, Cliff
ford and Critchlow, three of the accused,
are now in jail. making nine already
under arrest. 1t is expected hat more
arrests will follow.
