Quay And GILKESON
Their Contest for Party Leadership
in Pennsylvania.
THE GATHERING AT HARRISBURG

Both Sides Claiming . Majority Of Dele
gates In the State oonvention-Ths Con-
test VIII Probably Reach the Courts
for Final Settlement.
HARRISBURG, Aug es.-Chairinan Gil
keson, of the Republican state committee,
has made up the roll OF delegates to tho
coming state convention, which will meot
on Wednesday next Tho list as prepared
by Mr.. Gllkeson does not differ materially
from those heretofore published. Among
the changes made is that Bradford county
is allowed but three delegates by Mr..
Gilkeson, instead of four as claimed, and
the First district of BerlSs county gets but
two, instead Of three. The list as Issued
does not indicate who will be dropped In
the counties. H. T. Northrupp is seated
In Wyoming instead Of II. W. Bardwell.
All the Hastings men are listed from the
First and Fifth districts In Philadelphia,
where there are contests.
1t now seems probable that the contest
for the craftsmanship Of the state com
mittse will be carried into the courts In
the form Of an action on behalf Of Senator
Quay to compel Chairman Gilkeson to
surrender the books and papers of the
committee. The members of that body
will hold . meeting this afternoon, ct
which resolution will be adopted request
ing Mr. Gllkeson to attend and assist In
sho preparation of the roll Of delegates.
he will almost certainly refuse, and then
II Is proposed that the committee elect
Thomas v. Cooper, of Delaware county,
temporary chairman. Legal steps will
then be taken to compel Mr.. Gnkeson to
surrender tho books, and an auditing
committee will be appointed to examine
his accounts This program will prob
ably be carried out without opposition, as
1t is tho policy Of the Hastings people te
ignore any action the state committee
may take.
Congressman "Jack" Robinson, of Del.
aware county, has been selected by the
Quay people as their candidate for tempo.
rary chairman Of the convention. The
Hastings people have not yet announced
who they will put up for the place.
Chairman Gilkeson and David Martin
arrived last night, and are the guests Of
Governor Hastings at the executive man.
sion. 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.
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 mako public the figures upon
which they base their prediction.

TRENTON, Aug a6.-The body of Lydia
M. Frame, colored woman, was found
seated In a rocking chair, In little cabin
near Pennington, this county, yesterday.
The head was tilted back under shelf,
the face burned to crisp, and all the
clothing except her shoes and gloves
burned off. The woman had been house
keeper for Theodore Hogeman, u halfbreed,
who lives In the cabin, and as the woman
met her death Saturday night and Hoge-
man had notified no one, foul play is sus-
pected.
Coroner Bower who is investigating
the case questioned Hogeman to little
avail, the Indian claiming that ha tried
to extinguish the flames with carpet and
was afraid 60 tell of the woman's death.
Hogeman and the woman were In Penn
ington Saturday night, and drank heavily
A broken lamp found at the foot of the
stairs in the cabin may bear out Hoge-
mans assertion that the woman, while
drunk, let 1t fall, tho blaze spreading to
her dress. A lounge, a chair and the car
pet were also burned.
