The prosecution of the Homestead adj
visory committee for high treason will
raise great many novel and important
questions. Trials for treason have been
of exceedingly rare occurrence in this
country, and very few courts have been
called upon to expound the law touching
this subject. Undoubtedly the strikers
under the guidance of the advisory COM
nlittee did defy the laws of Pennsylva-
mia for days and weeks. but to consti-
tute treason they must have intended to
raise and levy war against the common
wealth and, have committed some overt act
in furtherance of their intention. Mere
resistance to authority, which is the
thing they undoubtedly were guilty of,
is not equivalent to an attempt to levy
war against the commonwealth. Along
with the intention to defy the laws,
must, it would seem, be an intention to
overthrow them, to constitute treason.

AN OFFICIALS HEAD.
Abstract Clerk Murnane the
Subject Of Some Ugly
RumorS.
His Management Of the Office
Alleged to Be Loose and
Careless.
an Investigation Hinted at
in Well-Infopmed
Quarters.
likely to End With His Resig-
nation Being Called
For.

There is a rumor afloat in county Off
eial circles that the fate of well-knOwn
county offieeholder has already been
signed and sealed, and before many
moons have passed he will be requested
to present his resignation TO the board
of county commissioners. 1t was stated
by some parties yesterday that this step
would be taken next Monday, but
after inquiries in the proper quarters
this report could not be substantiated
and it is hardly probable this final move
will be taken until several matters now
pending are settled, which may then
eliminate in the resignation OF the i'll
dividual in question. This is no less
person than Richard Murnane, who
holds the important Office of abstract
clerk. Inquiries made among the vari-
Gus county officers brought out the fact
that complaints have been made against
Mir. Muir name from time 10 time, which
have at last reached such a crisis that
an examination into the affairs of his
Office is to be Instituted. Among the
charges said TO have been preferred
against HIM are loose and care
less management of the records.
On the other hand. 1t is claimed by the
friends of Nurnane that the stories
which have been circulated about him
and his Office have their origin in the
evil wishes of his enemies, as he has
several OF them who also fill positions
within the court house. They say the
statement that he will probably be
asked to resign is canard, and some
expressed surprise that it should have
gained any credence whatever.
4 IN ORE rpnOltpr interviewed MavOr
Smith, who is chairman of the board of
county commissioners, and asked him
as TO the truth OF the statement that the
resignation of Mr.. Murnane would be
asked for OH Monday He said: II
know nothing whatever with reference
the rumor unless it arose from the fact
that some complaints may have been
made, and that the affairs of the office
are to be looked into"
a prominent county official was less
reticent, and said such a step might
possibly be taken, as the Office was in
very loose condition. Custodian Regain,
who is one of Murnane'S bOndSmen. eX-
pressed great surprise. and said the
story had no foundation in fact, and
County Commissioner Martin came to
the abstract clerks defense, saying the
reports must have originated from the
fact that two outside experts had been
engaged to index the books of his office.
Othar officials. when approached, smiled
knowingly, but refused to say word
on the subject, though they did not
deny that Mr.. Murnane'S removal was a
possibility of the near future.

SWEENY'S RESIGNATION.

A Baseless Rumor Nailed on the
Head.
A rumor has been put in circulation
to the effect that the resignation of DIR.
Arthur Sweeny was in some manner
precipitated by the action of Gov. Mer-
RAM in referring the Hutton and Blair
cases back to the board. The rumor is
absolutely without foundation. and is
an injustice to both DR.. Sweeny and
Gov. Merriam, between whom the most
cordial relations exist. DIR. Sweeny
wanted to resign a year ago, but was
earnestly solicited by the governor to
remain on the board. In accepting the
resignation Goa. Merriam paid a high
compliment to DR.. Sweeny, at the
same time expressing great regret at the
fact of the resignation. which was
forced upon the doctor by other press
ing business which precluded the posi-
bility of giving to the board the time

Inc supreme court rendered an i'm
poraant decision affecting the fish laws
OF the state. James, NJ. Briggs, of Sam
CANON county, year or two ago, was
arrested for seining fish in Sand Prairie
lake, body Of water situated IS miles
east OF Springfield, wholly on land
owned by one Jacob Miller. The lake
is but short distance from the Sauga-
mon river, and at times of high water is
connected with the river, although at the
ordinary stage of the water the lake is
not connected. and was not at the time
OF the seining by Bridges. Bridges con,
tended that, the lake being wholly on
land owned and controlled by private
individual. and he having obtained the per-
mission of that individual to fish in the
lake, there had been no violation of the
law; and that the law, if it did
apply IN such case. was unconstitu-
tlenai. The circuit court find Bridges

the law. The case was appealed to the
