REPUBLICAN JAYS.
Decided Lack of Harmony in Penn
syIyania.


syIyania.
HARRISBURG, Pa. Aug. 25.-Chairman
Gilkeson, of the Republican state commit
tee, has made up the roll of delegates to
the coming state convention which will
meet on Wednesday next. 1t now seems
probable that the contest for chairman
ship of the state committee will be car
ried to the courts in the form of an ac
ton on behalf of Senator Quay to COM
pei Chairman Gilkeson to surrender the
books and papers of the committee. The
members of that body will hold a meet
ing tomorrow at which ID resolution will
be adopted requesting Mr.. Gilkeson TO
attend and assist in the preparation of
the roll OF delegates. He will almost GER
tainly refuse and then it is proposed that
the committee elect Thomas w. Cooper,
OF Delaware county, temporary chair
compel Mr.. Gilkeson to surrender the
books, and an auditing committee will be
appointed to examine his accounts. This
programme will probably be carried out
without opposition, as it is the pol
icy of the Hastings people TO ig-
more any action the state committee may
take. The city is rapidly filing up with
politicians from every part of the state
who have come to take part in or witness
the exciting scenes that are expected to
take place when the convention as
sembles. There are also a number of the
members of the state committee VINO Will
attend tomorrows session of that body.
The result of the contest for the state
Craftsmanship is still in doubt. Both
sides claim they will win, but neither
faction is willing to make public the fig
ures upon which they base their predic-
tons Chairman Gilkeson and D. Martin
arrived tonight and are the guests of
Governor Hastings. Senator quay keeps
close to his quarters in the Lochiel,. and
Lieutenant Governor Lyon is here. aiding
the Senator in rounding up his forces for
the coming battle.

DEBS Is SORE.
Writes a Letter That is Full of Bit
terness.


CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-General Coxey,
Populist candidate for governor of Ohio,
addressed q large assemblage at a Popu-
list picnic in the northwest section of the
city this afternoon. He told those pres
ent that he would he the next governor
Of Ohio. and probably would be the Popu-
list candidate for president in 1896.
A letter was read from Eugene V. Debs,
the president of the a. r. T., who is now
confined in the Jail at Woodstock, ILL., 1t
is remarkable document in that it at
lacks in most vicious manner all the
doings of the old political parties. the
national administration, etc.
Debs says that to expect any change
from the old parties is idiocy.
Both are controlled by the money
power and are equally debauched by it's
influence
Debs then refers to the present admin
istration as probably the worst that has
ever cursed the country" He says, that
rupt, full of base professions, detested
and scorned throughout the land, is as
dead as a mummy and embdlmed in its
own slime"
He then states that in one regard the
Republican party is superior to the Demo-
cratic, because it does not hesitate to
boldly champion every measure calcu-
lated to enlarge the power of plutocracy.
while the Democratic party makes profess
sion of loyalty to the people, to which it
turns traitor in the supreme hour of
'sThere is but one course open to turn
bodily to the Peoples party. 1t is i'm
possible to either cleanse or deodorize the
old parties
Debs then goes on 70 score the courts
and abuses President Cleveland in a most
libelous manner, winding up by character
izng Judge Woods, who sentenced him to
Imprisonment as Gear Woods. who in

THE HEARNs' CASE.
VIII Probably Come Up ut the sep-
tember Term of Court.


tember Term of Court
HANNIBAL. Mo-. Aug. Pit is not
probale that the case against DIR. Hearns
and wife, charged with the murder of
Amos Saltwater, will be tried at the Sep
TENDER term of court. but they will be ar
raigned and an effort will be made to
obtain their release on bail A motion
will also be filed to Quash the Indictment
on account of Irregularities in the grand
jury's action. The grand jury appointed
three of its members as an invests eating
committee. The members of this COM
mittee met almost every day and ran
down every clue they could hear of and
reported to the whole jury. On this rath-
er novel way of procuring evidence it is
said the counsel for the defense will ask
that the indictments be quashed. 1t is not
known what view Judge Roy will take on
this technicality, but many are inclined
to think he will give due consideration
to it.
Prosecuting Attorney H. Clay Heather
declared today le would be ready to try
the case during the September term and
will not ask for continuance.
Mrs. HearnS refuses to see anyone and
converses with no one but her cell mate.
Mrs. Virginia B. Todd, who is charged
with the murder of her own daughter.
DIR. Hearns also absolutely refuses to
talk to newspaper men. He spends most
of his time playing solitaire and
has already worn out one deck of cards.
He and his wife are not permitted to hold
any conversation together under any cir
cumstances.

RANSOM'S REAPPOINTMENT.
President Cleveland Will Rectify

NEW YORK, Aug. Pa special 10
the Herald from Washington says:
Matt w. Ransom, of North Carolina,
will be re-appointed United States min
lister to Mexico and the president will
thus rectffy the blundnr made i'll the
first appointment of Mr.. Ransom while
he was still a member of the Senate.
Whether Mr.. Ransom will return to
Mexico or not will depend entirely upon
his own wishes.
In deciding what TO do in the matter
Mr.. Ransom will be governed very large
ly, if not entirely, by considera ton as
to his health. His experience with the
climate of Mexico last spring was not
such as to greatly encourage him to re-
turn. Mr.. Ransom was not we'll when he
went there, however. and his physicians
think the unfavorable effect of the eli
mate was largely due to his physical
condition and would not have been so
serious if he had hecn well when he left
the United States. Since his return to
this country ne has recovered his health.
IT Mr.. Ransom finds it advisable to de-
cline the Mexican mission he will prob
ably be offered some other place, though
none is now vacant, or likely to become
vacant in the near future that will COM
pare favorably with the mission TO
Mexico.

LONDON, Aug. 25.-With the con-
tinued influx of gold, the rates for
money have again slackened, and from

advanced, but the exception was the
mining market, in which business was
exceedingly quiet, although prices
were firm. Home railroads were
strong, and foreign railroads We're
quiet There was a good demand for
Turks, but Spaniards were weak.
Paraguay securities advanced. Amer
lean securities were better, especially
the bond issues, which were in good
demand at advanced prices. Shares
were neglected but the anticipated

schemes, when issued, will improve
matters. Fries have been sold on a
