A FAVORED SWINDLER.
Mrs. Matilda Gerst Again Visits CIeve-
land and Escapes Arrest.

CLEVELAND, Dec. 12-The victims OF
the bogus Pennsylvania Land and Lumber
Company will be surprised to learn that
Mrs. Matilda Gerst, who deposited in sew
eral of the large cities some of the large
sums Of money they were swindled out of,
was again in Cleveland to-day. To remove
all objections on the part of the Merchants
Banking and Storage Company, in whose
safety-deposit vaults she had placed $40 200
in gold and bank notes, attorney Dellenbaugh
telegraphed her. in her hiding place, to
come to Cleveland again, promising her
immunity from arrest as before. 1t was
all done secretly. Mrs. Gerst reached
Cleveland this morning and was driven in a
closed carriage directly to the safety-de-
posit vaults. She persented herself alone
at the window of the clerk who mas
charge of the vaults, and he recognized her
at once. She was Immediately surrounded
by the surprised bank officials and after
chatting gaily with them few minutes,
she proceeded 10 business by formally an
nouncing who she was and asking 10 ne
allowed to identify the money she had left
with them. The compartment she had
rented was opened and she readily identi-
fled its contents, saying IL was part of the
money illegally obtained by the land and
lumber company and placed there by her.
Then she departed in the carriage and
took the next train out of town.

HERNDON RELEASED.
1t Was Found He Was Not HiIImon,

TUCSON, Ariz., Dec. 12.-The man who
was arrested in the Huachuca mountains on
last Thanksgiving day on the belief that he
was J. w. Hillmon, charged with the mur-
der of a companion in the Buffalo mountains
of Texas. some years ago for the purpose of
defrauding the insurance companies out of
a large sum OF money. is not the right man.
He has been released from custody at Tomb
stone. where he was held, pending the ar
rival Of extradition papers from the Gov
nor of Kansas. The case excited much at
ficers that had been bounding the supposed
Hillmon for months were confident they had
the right man, until two relatives of the
real Hillmon arrived from Kansas and de-
c,ared that the man under arrest was not
their relative. The man whom the authori-
ties have mistaken for j. w. Hillmon is l.
3. Herndon, formerly of Franklin county,
Kentucky. He resembles in many respects
the man wanted.

Quarterly Meeting Of Dfrectors-Eu-

quarterly Meet1nS Oh Difectors-Eu-
gene Debs II Gompers.
/, CHICAGO, Dec. 10 The. board Of d.
rectors of the American Railway Union
began its regular quarterly meeting this
forenoon. All of the directors were pres
ent except r. NJ. Goodwin. The day was
spent in going over the finances of tie or
ganization and in reviewing the reports of
the directors The reports showed that a
number of local unions were in demoral-
lied condition, owing 70 the strike of last
summer but the officers say that they are
more than satisfied with those found to be
intact. Seven new uIIions were reported
as organized within the last thirty days.
The difficulty betweee> President DEN
and President Gomperss appears TO be in
ing statement: "Gompers's statement that
/ asked him to aid in the strike is mis-
take GOmDers was asked to attend a
conference of all of the labor leaders In
the country, to be held in Chicago, to dis
cuss the strike, but refused TO come. Later
his own organization Chicago net and
ordered him to come to Chicago. He came
because he was so ordered, and not of his
own volition. At no stage of the trouble
did / ask him to strike. When the con-
ference was held here / stated the situa-
tion, but made no request for assistance,
and If Gompers says otherwise, can dis
prove it."
In reply to a question, Debs said 1.-The
present session OF the a. r. u. directors
will last until Saturday night, unless it
should be terminated bF Judge Woods.

How the Indiana Senators Voted-Evi-

TO the conservatives, Again.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec 12-The votes of
the Indiana Senators to-day ought to be
eminently satisfactory to their friends.
Both Messrs. Voorhees, and Turpie voted
for the bill striking out the differential
on refined sugar and for cloture. There
may, however, be those who suspect the
entire sincerity of their motives. 1t is
fact that Senator German and those of his
associates who have heretofore been held
up TO public scorn under the name of "con-
servatives" knew yesterday that the at
tempt to call up the sugar bill would be
made to-day. They were in frequent con-
ferences with colleagues on both sides of
the chamber. and one of them said to the
Journal correspondent this morning that
Vest and Gray would be permitted to have
their way and try to call up the sugar
bill, but that ii was certain Of defeat. 1t
will be seen that all the conservative" Sem
ators were so certain of the defeat of the
sugar bill that every one of them was
actually paired in favor of the BILL Mr.
German was paired with Mr.. Frye; Mr.
Brice with Mr.. Wolcott, Mr.. Smith with
Mr.. Dixon. Mr.. Murphy with Mr. Chan
dler, Mr.. Camden with Mr.. Pettigrew and
Mr.. Gibson with Mr.. Pattin.' So secure,
indeed, were they of their game that not
one Of them remained in the Senate during
the vote.
Mr.. Voorhees, name is one Of the last
on the roll Hence, when he answered
AYE" to his name with loud vigor he
knew that 1t was perfectly safe and that
the bill was defeated. 1t was openly stated
by one Of the conservative Senators early
in the morning that Voorhees, is with us
again, though of course we don't know for
how long," Similarly the motion to take
up the cloture resolution was safely de-
feated before Mr. voorhees, was called to
vote for it,
