Mamie Mclaughlin, sixteen years old.
Of SO1 Spring street. was discharged in
Jefferson Market Court to-day after
being accused of attempting suicide.
Mamie has been often reproved by
her mother for her inclination to hirt
and run out at night. Last Monday she
was forbidden to go on an excursion,
but she ran away and went just the
same.
When she returned she was scolded
BY her mother, who threatened to go
tuesday to a police court for a warrant
for her arrest as an incorrigible
daughter. When Mrs. Mclaughlin went
out Tuesday Mamie thought she had
gone for a warrant, and so she drank q
good big dose of Paris green.
When Mrs. Mclaughlin returned she
found Mamie had been carried away to
the hospital. where the doctors had a
hard fight to bring her through. She
has been in Bellevue Hospital until to-
day.

WILL BRECKINRIDGE SUBMIT 2
More Talk of ContestIng the NomIna-
tIon of Owens.

More Talk of ContestIng the Nominal
tion of Owens.
LEXINGTON Sept. 18.-The official re-
turns by counties show 2S9 plurality for
Owens, but Breokinridge's manifesto is un-
derstooc to mean that the district commit
tee will be asked Saturday to 60 behind the
returns made by the democratic committee
The Breckenridge men had a majority of
the county committeeman, but they were
not disposed to go behind the returns from
the precincts. Here at Breckinridge's home
today the Breckenridge and Owens men
were equally divided on the Fayette county
committee and only the Settle men had the
balance of power. The committee met to-
day. Settle telegraphed his congratula-
tons to Mr.. Owens. and Settles friends on
the committee umpired the count without
going behind the returns.
Owens men are openly charging that the
manifesto or declaration of contest was not
issued until pressure had been brought TO
bear upon the district mmitteemen, who
were opposed TO going behind the returns.
owens men claimed that the frauds were
against them, instead of in their favor and
that money was being used to get the dis
trict committee to reverse the returns of
the county committee. There is over $780,
QUO up in the district in wagers, ana those
who put up money ON Breckenridge are
anxious for contest proceedings.
The official count OF the various county
committees now show plurality for Owens
of 270 over Breckenridge. There is no
doubt that the committee viii refuse 10
throw the nomination to Breckenridge as
such action would, in the opinion of the
conservative democrats, completely disrupt
the democratic party in the district.
Breckinridge's Friends Quit.
FRANKFORT, KY, Sept. 1S.-The friends
OF Colonel Breckinridge here think, as a
rule, that he has been defeated and are not
disposed To raise any further contest. The
action of the committee yesterday is gen.
orally applauded ana good feeling prevails.

Governor Flower later said: This is an

petuation of Tepu blican control in the state

support. AS for myself | need not assure

JONES WILL NOT RESIGN.
The Nevada Senator Refuses TO Listeu
to Republican Mandates.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 18.-C. G. Pown.
ing OF Reno, New, is in the city and in an
interview tonight stated that Senator Jones
had indicated his future course to his
friends. He says Jones has not Joined the
popuIist party, but has gone over to the
silver party of Nevada. In the meantime
Jones will disregard the demand of the re-
publican state committee that he resign at
once, because that would give Governor
Colcord an opportunity to appoint repub-
lican as Jones' successor. For that reason
he will wait until the Nevada legislature
meets and then resign, offering himself as a
candidate to serve out his unexpired term.
Powning predicts the success of the entire
silver party ticket, and says Jones' re.eIee-
ton will be an Endorsement of his course
Jones term Will expire in two wears and
there will probably be no serious opDosi-
ton to his candidacy. Nevada silyerites
believe that the resolution of the Nevada
republican state committee was inspired nv
republican politicians at Washington ana
Neyadans resent this attempt az dictation.

The Press., 1894-11-15

There was an entirely new style of cleo tion in New York city last week. The machinery of balloting and counting was out of control of the politicians in all ex- cept few of the 1141 election districts. It was also impossible for the politicians and election workers to get within at least 50 feet of the polls and stay there, in attempts to approach voters or keep them away. The policemen would not ac- cept bribes, would give no favors, and gave no heed to threats When politi-' clan took policeman's number and threatened to report him to the commis- sioners for dismissal, he went right on keeping the election workers off the line. Booths for the supply of pastors were kept outside of the 150-foot limit, not within, as last year. Crowding around the polling place was not permitted, the policemen on duty requiring every one near to identify himself either by badge or certificate, as an authorized watcher for one of the political parties. Those watching for anti-tammany organizations found no trouble this time in maintaining their ground in districts heretofore most difficult to protect against unlawful vot- ing. The police, inspectors, and even politicians, were filled with better spirit of good nature and fairness than has ever been remembered in this city. F#

The returns show a total vote of 155,S17, Of which MT. Coffin has SS, 123 and MT. Cady has 62,719. MT. Coffin's plurality is F, ,677 and his clean majority Is 12, ,702. The official vote will probably increase the scattering and may reduce the majority to say 12,500.
 The vote of last week was but about 6, ,OOO less than in 1899. So that had these 8, 900 all voted the democratic ticket MT. Coffin would still have had clean major ity of over 4,000. But the probability is that the bad weather kept more republi- cans from voting than democrats, their strength being greatest in the rural dis trict. The inference is unavoidable that many of the democrats of 1899 are no longer democrats.
