Police Officers.
Pittsburg. Jan. 22.-Adolph Bauch-
man. a demented man residing at 16
Hamilton Place, Allegheny, who for
the past twentyfour hours defied arrest
by the police. was captured this after
noon by Police Captain Thornton and
Detective Johnson. Both officers were
injured in the battle which ensued. but
neither of them seriously. Bauchman
was extremely violent and Is now con-
fined in a padded cell in the Allegheny
hospital. Every effort to effect his
capture was met with a most cunning
resistance and was effected only after
a resort to force. Officers Thornton
and Johnson broke through the barri-
caded door to the madman's room and
were met by the maniac with drawn
axe and butchers knife. Despite their
combined efforts Bauchman struck
Captain Thornton a blow on the head
with the axe. staggering him. and an
instant later dealt him a knife thrust
in the face.
Detective Johnson rushed uDon the
crazy man and was struck with Il club.
With powerful blow Johnson felled
Bauchman to the floor. A second blow
from the officers mace rendered him
unconscious and he was quickly and
securely irOned. While I'm the patrol

NEW POSTAL SCHEME.
A Plan to Consolidate the New York and
BROOKLYN Offices.

Washington. Jan. 22.-Considerable
excitement was caused in the postofiice
department today by rumor that Il
project was under consideration to con-
solidate the pos.Ofiice at Brooklyn and
New York with HEADQUARTERS in New
York city. 1t was asserted that such
action by the department would be
entirely in line with its recently adopt
ed policy of combining postOffices in
close proximity and making the office
merged / station and thus placing its
officials under the civil service rules.
1t is claimed for the suggestion that 1t
would prove advantageous to the SER
vice and to the public, as 1t would pre-
vent the congestion of the mails now
complained of in the two big offices and
would afford much more rapid de-
livery.
First Assistant Postmaster General
Jones. when questioned on the subject
declined to discuss the matter in detail
but said that If the project of the
greater New York went through. the
scheme was possibility. He said that
such a combination of the two Offices
would cause quite as much of dis
turbance as IL PROPOSAL to consolidate
the offices of Minneapolis and st. Paul
Minn., would create.

Harrisburg, JAN 90 - Chairman
Wright. of the state Democratic conf
mittee, will not be a candidate for re-
election. unless he changes his mind be-
fore the annual meeting Of the commit
tee in this city next April to elect
chairman and arrange the prelimi-
naries OF the state convention. Mr..
Wright is thoroughly disgusted with
running Democratic campaigns in
Pennsylvania. and is perfectly willing
to retire and let somebody else under
take the arduous task.
He has maid we'll for the honor, II it
be such. Of running the campaign last
fall for state treasurer and Judges OF
the Superior court. After the election
there was deficiency Of nearly $4,000
which Mr. Wright had to pay out Of his
own pocket He entrusted the general
work of the campaign to Secretary Sav-
age and his subordinates ut the state
headquarters in Philadelphia. while he
remained at his home in Allentown en-
gagged in the practice of the law and
directing the details of the canvass.
The result financially was even more
disastrous to Mr.. Wright than to the
candidates. who, with the exception of
Judge Smith. OF Scranton. didn't come
within l75,OOO votes of election.

Chairman Wright is said to have had
to pay a large bill on this account out
of his private funds. The chairman
did not learn of the reckless manner in
which the funds We're being used until
the last ten days of the campaign. Then
he was advised Of the situation of af-
fairs by a personal friend, and being
compelled to stay at home to attend tn
