The ELECTION to be held in this
State tomorrow will be for Governor,
Lieutenant Governor, Attorney Gcner-
al, one-half the members Of the State
Senate and all the members of the
House of Delegates, There are three
State tickets in the feld-the demo-
cratic, the popuist and the prohibition
ist-the republicans for the first time in
years having failed to make nomina-
tons. The three tickets in the field
are as follows: Democratic-For Gov
ernor, Charles T. O'Ferrall; Lieutenant
Governor, r. C. Kent; Attorney Cen
eral, r. Taylor Scott; Peoples Party
For Governor, E. r. Cooke; Lieutenant
Governor, ]. Brad. Beverly; Attorney
General, VIM. H. Graveley. Prohibit
tionist-For Governor, J. r. Miller
Lieutenant Governor, John S. Tyler ;
Attorney General, w. G.. Kagley. In
this district no Senator is to be elected,
and the democratic nominee for the
House of Delegates for this city and
county has no opposition, 80 if any
fight at all is made in this city it will be
over the State ticket. The populists
hereabouts, however, are few and far
between, and the prohibitionists have
made no canvass, soIthe democrats will
have everything their own way, but
this should not deter democrats from
voting, as it is important that a big
majority should be secured. The polls
will be held at the usual voting places,
and will be kept open from 6:34 a. m.
to 4:54 p. m. The city democratic
committee are making arrangements
for bringing out full vote, and
they should be encouraged and assisted
by every democrat.

DID Nor DIE FROM INJURIEs.-On
the Goth of September Alphonso Ar
rington and his son, William, were ar.
rested and fined for beating an old
man named Thomas Hatton. On Sat
urday Hatton was found to be dying
and something he said in his last mo-
meuts implied that his death was about
to result from the injuries he received
in the assault. The Arringtons were
arrested and locked up, and Hatton
having died shortly afterwards q Coro'
ner's jurywas summoned and an inquest
held yesterday on the body at Mr.. B.
Wheatley's establishment. A verdict
was rendered to the effect that the de-
ceased came to his death from natural
causes, and not from injuries. The
evidence showed that the old man was
not attended by physician until few
hours before his death, when DR..
Smith was called. The Arringtons
were accordingly released from custody.

The Sentinel has been boasting for the
last few weeks that 1t had at its Office
from s1,GOO to $1,000 to bet on Sullivan, and
the report was circulated widely that odds
OF two to one could be had. Several men
who wanted to bet on Denny have been
unable to find any of the Sullivan money.
"Bilf' Iron, whose gambling establishment
has been the headquarters for the Sullivan
machine, claimed to have great deal OF
money that he wanted to bet on his part
ner. the Mayor. Sam Dinin, another an
gelic character in Democratic affairs,
trumpeted the fact about that he had
money at his saloon to bet.
Last night w. e. Compton and a COM
panion went to the Sentinel office and Of
fered to bet 800 on the odds of two to one.
The man in charge of the Office said there
was no such odds. Mr.. Compton then Of
fered to bet even money on Denny. He
threw down 800 in gold. That amount
paralyZed the man in charge. He told Mr..
Compton that the man who had charge of
the betting had gone out and he could not
for the life of him tell when he would be
back. There was no bet to be had at the
Sentinel Office. Compton then went to

GOVERNOR AND ROBY.
Chance that UMalley May Escape, but
the Fighters Cannot.

Governor Matthews positively stated yes
terday that the rumors of correspondence
between himself and Judge Gillett, of Lake
county, looking toward compromise in
the Roby prosecutions. are untrue. There
has been no such talk between us" said
the Governor. "but have heard the ques-
ton of a compromise suggested. Whether
or not it came from President OMalley. of
the Roby association. 1 am not certain.
However, there is one thing of which / am
certain, and that is that nothing in the
way Of a compromise in the prosecution
of the actors in the late sports will be en-
tertained. propose that this part of the
programme shall be carried out. There is
a point wherein the matter might be ar
ranged. / think that If the managers of
the Roby ring would tear down the entire
affair and move 1t out of the State, they
might relieve themselves of further respon-
sibility in the matter. With the present
clubhouse taken away, 1t is hardly likely
that others would attempt to erect a SINH
lar concern. This, however would be no
punishment for the prize-fghters, and
would have no bearing the pending pros
ecutionS."

blackmailed into giving a portion of their
small wages to be used on this concluding
day of the corruption campaign of Sullivan
1t was a sight to be deplored, one to be
met: with pity and indignation. john Shine,
the heeler who has the work Cf HIKING men,
was giving these poor fellows the alterna-
tive of putting up money for Sullivan or los
ing their jobs after election. He went
around with a book and wanted men 10
sign away money dTa them from the city
to be used in the corruption fund This
money was to be dedl, ed out cf the mems
wages, to be paid or Thursday. The shovel,
ers, who are paid $l.60 day, were assessed
81 each, and the teamsters, who get $50
day. were assessed IS. Shine went TO Dick
Syrp. teamster, who lives on Shelby
street, and demanded this blood money.
Syrp told Shine He would be ID If ne
would pay TO hold his job"
John Murphy, teamSter, hauled Just
two loads of dirt off Fletcher avenue last
week, and yet ne was paid full weeks s
wages of 500 So The rest of the time he
spent in campaigning for the machine. Such
rottenness has never before been known in
the affairs of the city. and directly under

SMALLPOX LETTERS.
Various Queer Communications Re-
ceived by Governor Matthews.

Governor Matthews is in daily receipt OF
copious bundle of mail from Muncie, in
which the citizens set forth the smallpox
trouble in various ways. Many of the let
ters are evidently the creation of cranks.
Yesterday one man wrote the Governor
that all this talk of smallpox was false.
The writer asserted that there has not
been case of smallpox in Muncie there is
not now, and that it is very wrong in the
physicians to spread a report so scandal
GUS A woman writes that the Governor,
instead of sending the city money, should
order all the manufactures to resume
business. She holds that if the men were
allowed to go to work the town would
need no assistance The Governor hardly
agrees with the Muncie lady.
