BALTIMORE, Sept. 23.-Freeman Il.
Somerby's plans were we'll laid. Today
he was unanimously reelected supreme
justice of the Order of the Iron hall at
the reorganization meeting in the
Royal Arcanum building. After the
election MIR. Somerby made a
short speech, thanking the dele
gates for the renewed expression Of
their confidence in him. He then offered
his resignation of the Office to which he
had just been elected, saying he did not
wish to continue in the position, and all
he had desired was vindication of his
administration of the affairs of the
order. This, he said, had been given by
his reelection as supreme justice.
The meeting decided not to accept his
resignation, and therein MIR. Somerby's
enemies found cause for the statement
that the convention was packed with
his friends. while the others were ex.
cluded from participating in the pro-
ceedingS. The latter claim that only
fraction more than half of the orders
policy holders were represented at the
meeting. They wanted the order re.
organized, but they will have no part of
Somerby and the other supreme officers
as their leaders. They would prefer
the affairs to remain with the court be.
fore trusting the old officers again. Mr..
Somerby, however, succeeded in his
plans in being reelected by the reor.
ganizing convention and in abdicating.
He advised members of the Iron Hall to

Alleged Embezzlers Arrested in

KANSAS CITY, Sept. Estate last
night another sensational embezzlement
came to light, and three persons are
under arrest. The amount said to have
been taken is about $4,000, and
the institution affected is the
American National bank, of this
city. Last winter an investigation
of the books showed that some one had
been making changes in the figures.
The investigation was conducted so
quietly that no one suspected. Last
night two arrests were made here OH re-
ceipt of information of an arrest in Chi
cago Of the third party to the transac-
ton. A deputy United States marshal
arrested Joseph E. Mack. bookkeeper,
and Frank w. B. Black, collector. The
man arrested in Chicago is NJ. G. Curtis,
formerly assistant cashier.
Mack and Black were arrested late
last night by United States Deputy
Marshal Siddell on complaint of a
United States bank examiner, who
charges them with altering figures on
the banks books and embeZZlement.
The crimes of Mack and Black were
discovered by the banks officials last
winter, and when the two men were
charged with them they confessed and
made restitution of the stolen funds,
Mack, it is charged, had embezzled So:

Hon. Henry Feig Claims to

ponent, Kelso.

The are great many amusing things
in politics and no end of queer compli-
cations come up in the course of "a
heated campaign. Frequently man,
who looks pretty well Oh the day of his
nomination, is found badly disfgured,
if "still in the ring" on election day.
A prominent New York politician. who
is now spending few days attending
to business matters in st. Paul, last
evening told one of the best stories of
clever political work IN New York that
has been heard in long time. 1t was
in regard to the gubernatorlal campaign
of 1883. when Warner Miller, the Re-
publican nominee. was posing as a
temperance candidate.
Il had an idea," said this gentleman.
THAT perhaps Mr.. Miller's prohibition
record in his own county might be in
teresting, and l started for Herkimer
county. Under our excise laws at that
time the license fee was fixed by the
county boards in the various counties.
These boards had the power of saying
how much man should pay for the
privilege of selling liquor, and could fix
it from IS up into the hundreds. Herk
inner county is strongly Republican,
and the county boards have always been
OF that persuasion. A little inyestiga-
ton of the records presented few facts
that were as interesting as they were
amusing"
In the first place, the county board
had fixed the license fees at IS and Sc,
the lowest they could under the law
and lower than had ever been heard of,
and nearly everybody YVES selling
whisky. When these fact came out
Mr.. Miller lost prestige as the temper
ance candidate, but the facts uncovered
in Herkimer county were presented to
the next legislature by Gov. Hill in his
message.
Perhaps this Herkimer county scandal
has operated to prevent the Republicans
of New York making any more temper
ance campaigns"
