TROY, N. Y, March 6.-The vote polled
was as heavy as that cast in the presiden-
tial year. With few districts missing tho

overwhelming majority In Rochester the re-
publicans are jubilant over the outcome OF
the election, the candidate for mayor hav-
ing been elected by majority of probably
5000 In Little Falls not single democrat

shows republican gains. In Gloyersville tho
Board of Aldermen Is entirely republican.

COMMENTS OF LABOUCHERE
Truths Editor Cannot Become Reconoiled to
Rosebery's Elevation.
CUTTING REMARKS FROM THE EDITOR
Everything Connected with the Transaction
Disliked by tho Versatile Henry-Eng-
land, lie Says, Is "A Land of
Snobs-A Great Roast.

LONDON March 6.--Mr. Henry Labou-
chere. in an article which will appear in to-
norrow's Truth, will say: THE RESPONSE
bilty for the acceptance of a peer as prime
minister rests upon the radicals, unless a
clear statement is made in the queens
speech that we are to have a different policy
regarding the House of Lords than Lord
Rosebery is supposed to entertain. Some OF
the radicals will make it clear that they will
declare the tinkering of the pernicious as
sembly of peers, and that the right of that
body to interfere with the nation must cease
Lord Rosebery's public utterances with re-
gard to Ireland are not at all satisfactory
The secrecy with which Mr.. Gladstone's res
ignation and Lord Roseberys appointment
were managed Is a clever but most unfair
maneuver. Had the proper time been given
at least a hundred radicals would have pro,
tested against q peer premier. we nave not
only a peer premier, but peer in POKE
| do not object to any individual peer De-
cause he was born in the purple, and II Lord
Rosebery is really radical the difference
of his being peer may be surmounted by
bill allowing peers to renounce the privilege
of peerage in order that they may SIT In the
House of Commons"
Mr. Labouchere then proceeds to argue
that the House of Comons cannot remain the
ruling assembly while the premier is in the
House of Lords. In this connection ne
saws. I'VE will not have real contFOl over
him as we can only turn him out by hos
tile vote at the cost of running the party.
We are also idiots to suppose the electors
will not preceive the utter absurdity OF our
position when we appeal to the country with
the battle cry of the abolition OF the
Lords"
He concludes as follows: II am now con-
vinced that the radicals dearly love their
lord Love of and subserviency to the
title is the weak spot in the Anglo-SaXon
race We are a race of snobs and are never
happier than when indulging in an orgie OF
snobbism."
The Telegraph says: "Mr. Gladstone has
placed himself in the hands of Sir James
Paget, the famous surgeon, and the oculist
Netherilif We regret to say that there Is
undoubtedly a cataract forming on one of his
eyes with the prospect of a similar weaken
ing of the other, but nothing that Is not
liable to yield to ordinary treatment.
The Daily News says: Lord Rosepery
will retain his seat in the county council.
LONDON, March 6.--Lord Rosebery took
formal possession this afternoon OF the once
recently occupied by Rt. Hon. William Ewart
Gladstone as prime minister of England.
The new premier first visited the chancellor
of the excheuuer Rt. Hon. Sir William Yer
non Harcourt, and then passed into Mr..
Gladstone's rooms, where he was cordially
greeted by the eX-premier as his successor.
Lord Rosebery afterwards drove to his resi-
dence in order to prepare for the queens S
dra wing room.

Their Attempt to Prevent Illegal Voting
Results Fatally to Them.
'UR VICTIMS OF POLITICAL PASSION
Bitter Struggle Over the Selection of
Mayor for the City.
STORY OF THE DESPERATE ENCOUNTER
Bat Shea, n Notorious Tough and Ward
Heelcr, Accused of the Crime-Ho
Himself Desperately Wounded
In the Array.

TROY, N. Y, March GA mayor was
elected in this city today but the record
of the election is spotted with blood and
scenes such as the old resident in Troy
has no recollection of. In darkened room
in family residence lies the body of Rob-
ert Ross, who left his home this morning to
aid in the election of the candidate that
the republican party had endorsed In
room in the same house lies his brother
William, perhaps mortally wounded. In
another part of the city lies wounded n
notorious rough and ward heeler, Bat Shea,
and in still another part of the city is John
McFough, who received bullet and is seri-
ously injured.
Among the watchers at the Twelfth ward,
First precinct, polling place. were Robert
Ross and his brother William, both being
there in the interest of the republican party.
There was also Il well known character
named Bat Shea. About 1880 o'clock gang
of at least fifteen strangers stood waiting
to vote, while men whose names were on
the poll list both democrats and republicans,
were crowded away. Robert Ross objected
to this and had words with Shea. Tha
story told by the surviving Ross Is
that Shea the man who killed
Robert Ross. He said the trouble
began in the polling booth where
a crowd of repeaters, headed by jeremiah
Cleary and Shea, attempted to vote. When
the vote was challenged the men went OUT
side and Immediately started argument
with the Ross brothers. Suddenly the crowd
surged forward, and in an instant revolvers
were drawn and shots fired. Robert Rosa
fell to the ground and his brother cried I'm
shot" Then the firing ceased as suddenly
as it begun. William Ross was shot in the
neck just below the base of the brain, and
will probably die. His brother died almost
Instantly. John McFough is dangerously
wounded, while Shea's wound is not consids
cred serious.
John Ross said; II did not fire pistol.
1t was murder, deliberate murder. and it was
premeditated. Only about hour and q
half before this man Shea struck my brother
William full in the face. ! dragged William
away and told him to take the blow and say
nothing The blow would not hurt him. I
did not think at the time that they would
use their guns"
Mayor Wheelan said tonight: "It is only
the natural result of the Murphy heelers to
carry the election by fair means or foul. 1t
is stain on this city"
Senator Edward Murphy was busy all
afternoon attending to the distribution OF
cuff and collar workers who came to talk
about the Wilson bill, but he found time to
say: at is a deplorabe affair, and l am
greatly grieved at it,

RELIGIOUS oB4zE IN INDIANA.
Fanaticism Running Rampant In Putna IN
and Adjoining Counties

Fanaticism Running Rampant In Putna m
and Adjoining Counties
GREENCASTLE, Ind, March e--(special
Telegram to The Bee.)--A strange religious
fanaticism had taken possession Of the g-
norant people in the southern part of Put
nam county. and great excitement is occas-
ioned thereby. John and Charlie Scott of
Harrodsburg, Ind, and Miss Huffman OF
Illinois are conducting series of meetings
which are producing wonderful and terrible
results. They operate by prayer and the
laying on of hands, their victims are said to
go into frances and stay that way for a long
spell. until it is not uncommon to see eight
or ten laid out on seats for hours at a time.
Yesterday a commission of Justices of the
peace was held on one case, which Is very
pitiable and is the direct result of this
strange miracle working. Marcus Leucus,
prosperous farmer, has gone violently insane,
the direct result of this religious craze. Six
men are required to keep him in bed and
he won't wear any clothes. He followed
a star Friday night all night In the hope OF
catching the same, and only gave up the
chase in daylight when II disappeared. His
favorite theme is the bible, and he con-
stantly states "he never had so much fun
with Jesus Christ In all his life"
The poor fellow was taken to the Indian
apolis insane hospital today.
The neighbors are up in arms over the
strange Co. - threaten TO wipe 1t from
the face of the earth. Some talk shotgun
and others advise whltecapism. Just how
the trouble will end is i'll DOUBT, but trouble
Is feared.
The "evangelists" are said to secure large
sums of money during the frances of their
victims, and sell their pictures for 25 cents
each One victim under the excitement has
thrown away his crutches and claims his
lifelong rheumatism Is cured others who
have been blind claim to see. The craze
Is spreading rapidly.

not think very much was taken by the rob-

that the train hardly ever carried any val

too often to allow the carrying of anything
tempting to that class of people" he said.
President and General Manager Clark and
Mobile & Ohio railroad were at the South

Immediately ordered a carriage and were
driven to East ST. Louis, from which place
they went direct to the seems of the rob-

1t is just learned that the robbers were
frightened away before they could get at

Sisters Denounced by "A Priest.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., March Especial
to The Bee,)-A well founded rumor has
gained circulation to the effect that Father
Nolan of the Catholic church here has been
cited to show cause. before Mgr Satoll or
Archbishop Ireland why Mother Stanisaus
should not be renstated as mother superior
of the local parochial school. There has for
some time been quiet fight going on in
Catholic circles with regard to the school
and the sisters who were conducting 1t.
About two months ago Father Nolan de.
nounced the school from the altar and said
that the sisters, who professed to belong to
the order of Ursaline nuns, were In reality
no nuns at all. but simply women who had
taken the veil for the purpose of getting
position in a Catholic school. The priest
warned the members Of this parish against
the school and told them that they sent
their children there at their own risk. The
parochial school soon after that closed up.
but the sisters rented a building and con-
tinued to conduct private school, The fact
that Mother Stanislaus and Sister Mary
Clement have been east for the past two
weeks gives credence to the rumor above
mentioned.
