Newark and vicini at Present Raising
an Unusually Large Crop of Political
Aspirants--Those who Want to Go to
Congress- FILLING for Governor.
Special Correspondence of tiazetteand journal
NEWARK, oct. 2.-This town and vicinity
is Just at present raising an unusually
large crop OF political aspirants and CON
sequently there is much politics in the
air. At present it seems the entire crop OF
Democratic congressional candidates is to
come from Newark and environs, since all
of those so far mentioned in this connec-
ton, namely, William Cooch, L. irving
Handy and ]. Harvey Whiteman, are
from around here. Mr.. Cooch living sew
eral miles south Of town, Mr.. Whiteman
several miles in an opposite direction and
Mr. Handy right in the town.
The rivalry has so far been in most
good-natured spirit, but all have been
working very earnestly, and almost every
one around here is pledged to one of the
three candidates. Another local name
frequently heard in connection with II
high office is that Of John Pilling, whom
many Republicans here, as well as through
out the county, want to see nominated as
the next Republican candidate for COVER
nor.
On Saturday at noon special excursion
train of eight cars passed through here
over the b. e. o. railroad for Chicago.
There were aboard 800 persons from Phila-
delphia, Chester and Wilmington, ten pas
sengers getting on at this point. A rail
road man predicted that by the time the
train got to Pittsbnrg it would contain 25
or 80 well-filled cars and would be run in
three sections.
John Pilling, Jr., and Samuel ]. Wright
left Philadelphia on Saturday in the
special train of the Manufacturers Club
for the Worlds Fair, Mr.. and Mrs. r. T.
Pilling of Kiamensi being in the same
party. Joseph Hossinger, Edward X.
Martin, John Nivin, Benjamin Caulk,
| Joseph Rankin have left for the Worlds
Fair to spend week. Among those who are
booked to leave for Chicago this week are
Mr.. and Mrs George Kerr, Mr.. and Mrs.
| j. J. Pie. L. Blair Pie, Miss Anna Landsey
and Miss Lizzie Lundsey. Altogether about
! q score of Newarkers are at the Fair at the
present time-most of them at the same
| hotel,

BASEBALL SEASON WINDS UP
The Last Championship Game
Played Sunday.
PHILADELPHIA IN FOURTH PLACE
Boston Wins the Pennant for
the Third Time


With Saturdays games the somewhat
remarkable baseball season of 1898
came to an end. And the Phillies, Of
whom so much was expected and whose
chances for the pennant seemed so
bright at one time, landed in fourth
place. This is somewhat disappointing
to the admirers of the club, their hopes
having been aroused by the fine show
ing made in the middle of the season. II
is generally admitted that but for the
untimely injury of that greatrun' getter,
Hamilton, the club would have ended
much higher on the list. The main de-
feet, however, was in the pitching de-
partment. The work of the men in the
box has been very erratic, and to this
more than anything else can be ascribed
the falling off of the club in the race.
Financially, the season has been
great success, the best, indeed, since
1889. The attendance on the Philadel-
phia grounds was about 100000, an
average of over 4,200 per game. The
reduction in salaries has resulted in u
great saving to the managers, while the
figures quoted satisfactorily settle the
wisdom of 25 cent admission fee in
Philadelphia.
Boston has won the pennant for the
third successive year, and with ease
By coming in second, Pittsburg takes
the best position ever taken by a team
from that city. The other clubs follow
in the order of their ability.
Already there is talk of a further re-
vision of the rules. The "cranks" are
now dead set against the bunt hit, and a
move is on foot to place the pitcher in
the centre of the diamond. These
changes it is claimed will give base ball
the right to be regarded as scientific
pastime and susceptible of the highest
degree of refinement and athletic de-
velopment.
The Phiilies disbanded at Cleveland
Saturday evening.
The final standing of all the clubs is
as follows;

A Band of so White Caps soundly Thrash
Observation-Disclosures to Leave Smyrna
in "a Hours.
Special correspondence Of Gazette and Journa
SMYRNA, Sept. 3O-The people of Smyrna
Landing We're aroused late last night with
wild cries of "mercyl" and murder" the
result OF Il severe whipping which a band
of White Caps were giving to one of its
residents. A couple moved and took quar-
tiers in the Mailman mansion on June 18th
last, coming from near Dover, representing
themselves to be Mr.. and Mrs. K. Bradley.
The family comprised two children girl
of about and boy about IA years of age.
In short while rlimors were alloat that
there were some missing links, the chill
dren admitted their names to be Henry.
This was inconsistent whit laws of the
quiet little village and the family was soon
notified to take leave. II appears that n
short time since, some neighbors were
aroused from their sleep by a hideous
noise and upon investigation found the
man beating his wife. She had him ar
rested and brought before Squire Cooper.
He escaped punishment: the plaintiff
pleading in his behalf. lie was fined but
81 80 and costs.
The people of Smyrna Landing, most of
whom are employees of the Transportation
company and the several fertilizer works,
are quiet, honest and intelligent people
and have become disguised with such ac.
tions. Accordingly, they took the matter
into their own hands, and last night about
80 called at the house of Bradley and
severely whipped him. He was given
notice to leave with all his effects at once
and promised to do so by 8 o clock tonight.

A horse driven by Elmer Sands and
attached TO light buggy ran away on
Franklin street last Sunday afternoon,
causing considerable excitement. Sands
was driving down Lancaster avenue
when the animal took fright and started
to run away. He passed up Franklin
street and with diffiulty sped by some
sewer excavations without harm. 1t
was difficult for man to have passed
by where the horse galloped along
without danger. Mr.. Sands was thrown
from the wagon during the course of
the runaway steed and escaped with
some bruises and a black eye. The
horse was finally captured near Brandy
wine Park, but the buggy was partially
wrecked. The team belonged at Bull
locks livery stable.

AN UNsoLVED MYSTERY.


NO Light Upon the Death OF the Unknown
Man Supposed TO Have Been Murdered
in u Bush Lot.
The mystery surrounding the death
of the unknown man found lying in a
bush lot near the Ogletown road, near
Stanton, Monday week, is still an un.
solved mystery. The body has been
buried in potter's field, and the identity
may never be known. The coroner's
Jury held an inquest last night week but
were unable to bring forward any new
developments. The testimony of George
Morton, who was notified OF the finding
of the body and removed it TO the estab-
lishment Of Deputy Coroner Palmer,
was heard, and revealed the fact that
the remains were almost entirely nude
when found, and the limbs were cov-
cred by growth of underbrush which
led Mr.. Morton TO believe that it had
from view. The remains were clad in
light undershirt, covered by a jumper.
The man. was without hat, shoes, or
trousers.
The only plausible clue to the mans
identity is the theory that he may be an
escaped inmate of the Delaware State
Hospital Tor the Insane, as jacob Bonne-
field, who left the institution a month
ago, is still among the missing. The
latter had clean shaven face, however
while the deceased had full beard.
His features were unacceptable. The
fugitive inmate wore the blue Uniform
of the asylum. The man who was
found wore only a blue jumper and
undershirts. If Bonnefeld and the de-
ceased are one and the same man the
| question arises what has become of his
clothing. Besides there is the
beard to explain, as the German was
smooth shaYen. 1t was unable to tel
whether the deceased had been assaulted
on the head or not, us decomposition
had set in and prevented the holding o.
post-mortem. No blows were noticed
about the body.
The coroner's jury rendered verdic
to the effect that the man came to hi
| death from causes unknown to the Jury
