Then the damsel trembled, and bare

Charles N Brumm, who made an unswerving
battle for Quay, and was not due to any
proceeding in the convention itself
The circumstances of the encounter as
furnished by reliable Pottsville correspon-
dent are that Brumm was in the convention,
talking to one of the delegates, when Jack
White, an official at the Schuylldn Haven
almshouse, who was standing by, heard the
name of Whitehouse mentioned and said to
Brumm, "You are a liar" Brumm turned
and asked, DO you mean to call me liar ?'
White answered Yes" whereupon Brumm
struck him blow with his fist in the face
A crowd Immediately gathered and further
hostilities were prevented White left the
convention hall and swore out warrant for
Brumm's arrest before Pottsville Justice
An opportunity to get Brumm out of the con-
vention hall Brumm's friends say, presented
itself and the Gilkeson people lost no time in
grasping it. The warrant was placed in the
hands of Constable Wade, also known as a
strong Gilkeson man, who tried to get into
the convention to get Brumm, which caused
great uproar that extended into the conven-
ton A riot inside and outside seemed i'm
minent, when Brumm left the hall, furnished
bail before the Justice who issued the
warrant and returned to the convention
This occurrence was the cause of the delay
in receiving the returns

When Congress RecOnveneS.
GOSSIP ABOUT THE "PROBABLES. Il
Postmaster General Bissell and Secretary
olney Talked of, While New York State
Favors Judges Rufus W. Peckham
and D. Cady Herrick

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O.-There is much
speculation as to who will be President
Clevelands choice for the United States
supreme court bench to succeed the late
Justice jackson, but beyond the mention
Of available names there is little of a
definite nature thus early. 1t is the
general understanding that no appoint
ment will be made until after the meeting
of congress- as the place is one of too much
Importance and dignity for a recess ap-
pointee to go on the bench and take the
chances of subsequent rejection by the
senate. There has been no case in the
recent history OF the country where an ap-
pointment has been made to the supreme
bench during a congressional recess.
1t is suggested that the selection is most
likely to be made from the east, and prob
ably from New York, as Mr.. Cleveland
made the last appointment-that of JUS
tice White-from the south, after the SEN
ate had rejected the names of Horn
blower and Peckham, both of New York.
When the serious Illness of Justice jack
son was first announced gossip mentioned
the name Of Mr.. Bissell, then in the Cabi-
net, as the probable successor The same
suggestion is heard at the present time.
As is usual when an important place Is
to be filled, the name of Secretary Car
Isle is mentioned, but the general opinion
is that should Mr.. Cleveland go to his
cabinet for an appointee he is more likely
to consider Mr.. Wilson or Mr.. Smith. The
name of Representative Josiah Patterson
of Tennessee, will probably be called to
the attention of the president, as he comes
from the state of the late justice, and is
known as a most loyal friend of Mr..
Cleveland. The name of Don NJ Dickln-
son and Solicitor General Holmes Conrad
are also mentioned.
There are persons, however, whose rela-
tions with the president are of the closest
character who believe that Mr.. Cleve-
lands first choice would be Mr.. Olney the
secretary Of state. 1t is known that he
places implicit confidence in the sound
ness of Mr.. Olney's opinions on all i'm
portant legal questions which come before
him, and that he fully appreciates the
great assistance Mr.. Olney has rendered
him in the disposition of the great ques
tions that have arisen during the last two
years. Whether Mr.. Olney's residence in
Massachusetts, will render him unavaila-
BILE is not known, but it is the opinion of
many well informed persons here that,
but for this objection, Mr.. Olney would
surely be the man. Next to him Mr.. Ru-
fus Peckham is thought by many to be
the most likely to receive the nomination.
The question of confirmation would not
be raised, it is said, as it was in the cases
of Wheeler H. Peckham and Hornblower.

MAX SCHMIDT.


Much interest is manifested in the one
hundred yard foot race between Charles
Kirlin, son of the Main street druggist and
f. B. Brumm, the ieweler, for S1OO side,
which is to take place at the Trotting park
next Wednesday afternoon Elmer Opp the
Ferguson House chef, is backing Kirlin and
Brumm is putting up his own wherewithal.
The race has been on the tapis for several
weeks and grew out of banter. Kirlin was
talking foot racing to a young man and
Brumm said Kirlm couldn't give him three
yards in hundred for So KiIlin talked
even start and finally the exchanges led Opp
to offer backing for Kirin to the extent of
500 for a 100-yard race with even start,
which was promptly taken up. Kirlm has
had pretensions to sprinting for some time
and has won a race, while Brumm has never
been considered in connection with the cndeT
path and it is now thought that he may prove
a sleeper" Brumm ran trial race at
Ringtown yesterday and it is said showed
up in excellent form. Kirin had a trial at
the Trotting park with equal success The
race is exciting as much attention as a pro
fessional one.

The Pen and Pencils and ColumbiaS
of the Wheeling League, played two
games at Seibert's last night, and broke
even. The most interesting thing IN
connection with the games,N.as the TACT
that Handlan pulled up his average,
and is now a formidable opponent OF

Heryey leads O'Neill about two-tentns

their relative positions.
The La Bellies and Brownies each
have two games to roll before the close
of the season, and it would appear
that the chances for third place are
slighly in favor of the latter. The
Brownies will play the Bowlers at the
Musee. and may win two games. This'
however, viii depend upon the strengn
of the team which is presented. The
La Bellies will play the Columbias at
Seibert's, the alleys upon which the
latter team has made its best scores
The Columbias can hold their own with
any team on Seibert's alleys, and the
La Bellies will hardly better than
break even.
Even more interesting than the team
race is the struggle for individual hon
ors, between Handlan, Hervey, O'Neili
and Bowlin. 1t would be difficult 10
predict the result; only the games yet
to be played viii tell.
With the advent of the warmer
weather, there is marked activity
among the shooters, and there prom
ises to be a revival Of interest in this

Stafford c. H., Va, February 23.-
Searcy resumed the stand this morning
looking fresh and clipper. Mr.. White
handed him up a forty-fve calibre
Colts revolver and asked him if he
knew it. He said he did, that it was
Charlie Morgans pistol that he used
AT the Aqua Creek train robbery. Then
Searcy was turned over to Lawyer
Shay for discrimination. Mr..
Shay's examination was exhaustive
and traced the whole course of Searcy's
life. Searcy's replies were terse and
pointed. After telling of his travels
this country, Central and South Amer
lea, Searcy got to the time of the
train robbery. His story differed only
in minor details from what had already
been narrated by the other witnesses
until he came TO describe the manner
in which their masks were put on,
when Mir. Shay dramatically whipped
ont of bis pocket large red bandanna
handkerchief and asked Searcy TO put
it on in the manner Che masks were
worn.
Are the holes out?' asked Searcy.

Il am not engaged in business, said
Mr.. Shay. You cut them.
Some one produced a pair OF scis-
sors and Searcy cut the holes in the
handkerchief. which he then put on
i'm the manner in which he said they
were worn the night of the robbery
Then Morgan's hat was produced and
Searcy was reque@ted to put that on,
and there he stood, the observed of all
observers, an ideal train rObber. An
other sensation Of the day was when
Prosecutor White insisted thatSearcy
be allowed to answer a question in his
own way, and the court so ruled. Sena-
tor Little, for the defense, sprang to his
feet at the bar and charged the judge
VITA assisting the prosecution.
He was sharply reprimanded by the
Judge and retorted that all the people
thought the judge was so assisting.

was long, skillful and exhaustive, but
failed to shake Searcys testimony
There was Quite,a laugh when Mr.. Shay
asked Searcy at one time in regard to
his leaving some place, whether Judge
Lynch was after him, and Searcy
quickly answered. "He was not, and
if be was, he did not catch me-
At the close of the crOss-eXaminatiOn
Searcy was ordered to stand aside, and
