Mrs. Poth Sues Her Father-in-LaW for
 $10O,000 Damages.

NORRISTOWN, Pa., June 26.-The tables have been turned in a most startling manner by pretty Mrs. Fred erick J. Poth. The jury acquitted her of the charge of infidelity to her wealthy husband, and she immediately brought suit in the Philadelphia courts to recover $1OO,O0O from her father-in law, Frederick T. Poth, the wealthy Philadelphia brewer, charging him with malicious prosecution. She all leges. that it was he who dragged her into court preferring the charges of in- fidelity which reflected upon her honor
 The indictment of Mrs. Inez Dan vers, her maid, who peeped and testi- fled to immoral conduct, for allejed perjury, was followed by the arrest in Philadelphia of Thomas A. Beckett He was given a hearing this evening before Magistrate Lenhart, charged with perjury, and $1,0O0 bail was re- quired for a further hearing, ia default of which he was sent to jail. Beckett is charged with bearing false witness against Mrs. Poth at the hearing before Squire Zimmerman at Collegeville. He gave damaging evidence against her concerning what he alleged he saw while she was stopping last summer at Collegeville.

INGERSOLL IS EXPELLED.
His Name Dropped From the Ardsley
 Casino Club.

NEW YORK, June 26.-The state ment was made today that Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll had been expelled in a rather roundabout way from the Ardsley Casino club on account of his views on religion. The Ardsley Casino club clubhouse is located on park of 200 acres overlooking the Hudson, near Fobb's Ferry.
 According to c. P. Farrell the col oneps brother-in-law, the club was organized last year and Colonel Inger- soil was prevailed upon to become a charter member. The colonel agreed to do so, and subscribed $1 ,OOO for some of the stock. Later, he sent a check for $500, one-half of the subscription. While the colonel was away, several months ago, the check was returned with the explanation that his name had been proposed. but was not sec onded. The management of the club tried to evade the matter afterward by saying that his name had been dropped along with others. Under ordinary rules they could not have dismissed the matter in this way, since the col onel was charter member.

BELL FOR GOVERNOR.
The Logical Man for Colorado to
 Elect.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-The Post says: One man who is bound to profit immensely by the action of Senator Teller in the St. Louis convention is Congressman Bell of Colorado. He was the only Populist to be returned from that state at the last congression- al election, which went SO hard against that party and removed from the arena of National politics the unique and picturesque Lafe Pence. Bells ma jority was immense.
 The state going out of the Republi- can party, as it virtually did by the action of Teller, makes Bell the logi- cal candidate for governor.
 The Populist member is one of the most conscientious men on record. He was judge of the superior court of his state, a position which paid him as much, if not more, than a congression- al salary, and good for eight or ten years. He had every prospect of con- tinuing another term, but accepted the Populist nomination in order to give his time and attention to the silver question in the National legislature.
 He is, next to Teller, the most pop ular man in the state, and he and the senator are warm friends. Bell does not care for the governorship, but would rather be returned to congress, where the work is more to his liking. He will announce himself for re-elec- | tiOn,

SACRAMENTO, June 26.-A special dispatch to The Bee from San Fran cisco today says the local advisory board of the A. P A. numbering thirty eight members, being two delegates from each of the local A. P. A. councils, had presented to it Wednesday night an elaborate report from a sub-com- mittee which has had consideration for some time past of charges preferred by Donald M. Ross against Benjamin F. Huddleson, state president of the or der, and other state officers, for having conspired to sell the influence; of the order to John D. Spreckels for political purposes. The report periodically en- dorses the charges preferred by Ross and recommends that the present state officers be suspended, pending a formal trial. It is not known what disposi- tion the board will make of this report.

The mill is doing the very best of work and the tailings show absolutely no trace of gold.

Ills Hostility to the Force Bill Make '. Him Acceptable to the South

DENVER. June 26.-The News prints a lengthy interview with Judge Henry e. Caldwell, of Little Rock, who is spending his vacation in Chicago
 The judge expressed the hope that the free silver forces will unite upon one candidate. Regarding the man most likely to be selected, he said: There are plenty of good men. think the Populists and silver Republicans will support MT. Teller, Mir. Bland or any pronounced and reliable silver man who is known to have the requi- site courage and resolution without re- gard to his previous politics.
 In regard to Senator Tellers candi- dacy in the south he said: 1.-The splen- did moral courage which he exhibited when he repudiated the anti-Republi- can action of his party, at St. Louis, has been exhibited on other occasions.
 More than once in the senate he has defied the party lash, and the behests of the party caucus, and stood up in the defense of the rights of the south ern people. His determined hostility to the force bill defeated that meas ure and has endeared him to the south ern people and should he be the can didate he will be enthusiastically sup ported by them. I know that he is universally regarded by the leading Democrats of the south as an able courageous, patriotic and broad-mind ed statesman, and that upon the su preme issue now before the American people he is the acknowledged leader of the right"

TELLER AT CHICAGO.
His Name Will Surely Be Presented to

DENVER, June 26-The friends of Senator Teller who have been advo- eating his candidacy on the silver tick ct for president, are feeling very much encouraged by the reception the boom started at St. Louis immediately after the bolt of the western delegates has had in the west and south.
 It ds announced that Tellers name will be positively presented to the Chicago convention and it is hoped the strength he will show on the initial ballot will stampede the convention to him.
 Friends of MT. Teller say the en- dorsement of the Populist party is as- sured for him if the Democrats make him their candidate and that this would not be possible should a straight out Democrat be chosen.

GORMAN WON'T BE THERE.
He Will Not Attend the Chicago Con.

BALTIMORE, June 26. - Senator German will not go to Chicago. This
 is final. "If I were to go," said the senator, "what more could I do than
 can be done by the gentlemen who compose the delegation elected by the state convention? Nothing" It is doubtful if he will accept reappoint- ment on the National committee. Ger tainly he will not be on the executive committee. German does not think there is any chance at this late hour to stem the free silver tide, which he believes will sweep over the Chicago convention. When asked who he thought the Democrats would nomi- nate, he replied: Tt looks like Boies. 5
