confrrres Adjourn gain.
BEDFORD, Sept 2-[ Special THE Con-
gressional conference of the Twentieth dis
trict, which has been in session here for the
past four days, during which time "a bal
lots were taken. adjourned to-day to meet
here on Wednesday. There were six ballots
taken to-day, and Ashcom, Scull and Hicks
at different times had six votes Mr.. Scull
served notice on Mr.. Hicks, through Post
master Mcdonnell, of Altoona, that Som
erset would not vote for a Blair county man
on account of the treatment he received in
the county two years ago.
Cambria county on one ballot voted for
Stevenson, of Cambria, thinking the other
counties would follow suit and break the
deadlock, but as the balance of the counties
are instructed, they had this as an excuse
and stay by their candidate. Neither of
the candidates have made any propositions
to come to an understanding, but the opin-
ion prevails here that Ashcom will be NOM
mated, since Scull has served notice that
Blair is to be ignored.

Talfon Hall, Reputed Murderer Of 90 Men,
Executed-The Town In a state OF Siege
TO rrev mt Rescue-Condscated Guns
Would Fill an Arseua'.
WISE c. H., VA, Sept 2-Talton Hall,
the leputed murderer of SO men, was exc
crted here to-day. The noted desperate
slept but little. He was not defiant or
staggering, as yesterday, but childish,
petulant coward. A tempting breakfast
prepared by his sister was placed before
him at o'clock, but he refused to eat He
drailk cup of coffee and then called for
whisky. A drink was given him, but it
had little effect
Guards were on duty around the Jail and
in the vicinity OF the Court House all
night. Outposts OF three men were sta
toned on each road leading into town dur
ing the night, and every man who came in
was searched, and If found to carry Win
chester or pistol, such weapons were con-
iscated The same plan was followed all
this morning, and before II o'clock the
guards were in possession of a sufficient
number of weapons to equip regiment In
the regular army. A picket was stationed
in the tower of the Court House.
Every possible means was maze curing
the night to keep moonshine whisky out of
town, but, despite the vigilance, some of it
was distributed. and every drunken man
was promptly locked up. By 10 o'clock
this morning there we're from 5000 to 1000
people in the village.
The active preparations for hanging began
at 10 o'clock. The drop fell at 1921 P. NJ.
Hall died in II minutes from the time the
drop fell He made speech on the scaf-
fold.
Talton Hall is credited with having
killed 10 men in the last 20 years, which
the newspapers have magnifed into SO.
Hall acknowledged to only tour or five,
however. He stated to the reporter who
interviewed him week previous to his
execution that he killed Henry Triplett in
1873, and Henry Houk and Mack Hall in
1885, for each of which crimes he was tried
and acquitted. These murders occurred in
Kentucky. The crime for which Hall was
executed to-day was the murder in cold
blood of Enos b. Hylton, q special police
man Of Norton, Wise county, Va, on the
18th day of July, 1891 Hylton refused to
release man he had arrested, and Hall
shot him through the heart.

pared by the Peoples party during the last
campaign in which Senator Quay was as
sailed in such manner that the committee
was afraid to issue it after getting 1000

Frick of being an Anarchist, and said that
he was not sorry that he was shot. He also
said that Frick, Carnegie and others were
traitors to their country, and claimed that
the President and Governor were the
en- emies of the workingmen, and that they
must down them.

That Is All Pittsburg Visitor Can Remem-
Der of His Experiences.
James Espenwall, q resident Of York
willie, Jefferson county, O., called at police
headquarters last night and related that he
arrived in the city on Thursday to meet a
brother coming from England. While
waiting for the train hs>wandered into
an Eleventh street saloon where he got a
glass OF beer. A short time later he went
after another one.
While drinking the second beer he was
accosted by a man who, seeing some lodge
pins on him, remarked, $50 you belong to
the lodge?" After this Mr.. Espenwal's
memory is blank. The only thing he knows
is that he woke up and found himself lying
on the street, his clothes covered with mud
and his pocketbook containing s24 so and a
gold watch gone.
The police could give Mr.. Espenwall but
little consolation, and he departed for
YorkviHe.

A Boy Whose Skull Was Nearly Shattered

Boy Whose Skull Was Nearly Shattered
Almost Entirely Receivers.
John Mcdowell, 10 years old, whose
strange case has bewildered the physicians
of the Homeopathic hospital since he went
to that institution on July IS, left there
yesterday. On the date he was injured he
was employed by the Sheriff Machinery
Company, No. 49 Water street, as a
machinist While removing the gear
wheels from an iron wagon a crowbar
which was being used to lift the wagon,
slipped and few in the air, coming down on
McDowell's head. By the terrible blow his
skull was fractured for a distance of nine
inches and two inches across, the pieces
pressing into the brain.
McDo well was taken to the hospital
where the neatest surgery was required to.
dress the wound He recovered conscious
ness when the operation was finished, and
to the establishment of the physicians said
he felt no pain. During his stay at the
hospital Mcdowell has suffered little, but
his injury caused the partial paralysis of
his legs. He can walk, but has to carry
cane.
The remarkable case is the talk of the
hospital, as the physicians thought he would
die. McDowell's parents live in Banks
vile, on the Sawmill Run Railroad
