an immense success.
1t Is the intention Of the Essex county
Endeavorers to leave Newark. either July

stopping place and the party will breakfast
there. In making Plainfield, the route as
planned takes the cyclists over the attrac-
tive roads through Hilton and Springfield.
Metuchen is the next objective point, and
from there the riders will go to New
Brunswick. From Metuchen the route will
be direct to Princeton.
At the last-named place time will be al
lowed to visit the college grounds and the
town. From Princeton the route takes the
riders to Trenton, via Lawrenceville, where
a stop for dinner and a short rest will be
enjoyed.
Bristol, Pa, Is next on the program and
from there 1t Is q trif1e over twenty miles
to reach Philadelphia. This is as far as
the tourists will go on the first day. The
next morning will be spent in visiting
points of interest in and about the Quaker

ment.

NV Dear Governor-Inoluding the cleo

the S75 delegates elected, 154 are for NC
Kinley, provided you concede to him 70
from Indiana and 18 from Minnesota
Sixty tour delegates elected are for cover

AGAINST FREE COINAGE.
Platform to Be Adopted at Massachusetts
State Convention Will So Declare.

Washington, March 24.-On Friday
next, Massachusetts will, at the Repub-
lican state convention, formally present
to the country Thomas B. Reed as New
England's candidate for the Presidency,
on platform, declaring against free
coinage, except by international agree
ment
When Senator Lodge leaves for Boston
tomorrow, he will carry a draft embo6y-
ing the declarations which the New Eng
land candidate desires made. not OILY
next Friday. but at ST. Louis in June.
and it will, doubtless, be adopted with
out material change. There will be
sharp conflict at ST. Louis over the
planks. The eastern men will maintain
that Mckinley, standing on his financial
plank, cannot carry New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut, and II Mckinley
is nominated they will insist that it shall
be on the Reed platform. On this they
believe they will have a majority of the
convention.
If there is anything in the intimations
of the silver men that they have kind
of understanding with Mckinley, in the
interest of the combination of silver and
protection, the sound money Republican
propose to see that Mckinley is not pro-
t1ted and the party Is not hurt in the
least by it.
The Massachusetts convention is ex-
pectad to endorse the Monroe doctrine and
the Armenian resolutions, and express
sympathy with Cuba.

LANGDON PROBABLY KNEW
Mysterious Death Of a Young Phila-
delphia Girl.
FOLLOWED BY THE ARREST OF
RAILROAD OWNER.

Young Woman Was His Mistress and He
Disappeared the Day of Her Death
More Than That Police Refuse to Tell
Man Disclaimed Amy Know1ege OF
Completely With the Girls Death.
Philadelphia, March 24.-The finding
of the body of young and pretty woman
at 1926 Girard avenue last night, after she
had been dead "a hours was followed
today by the arrest of Samuel 2. Lang
don, president of the United Collieries
company. 1t is said he is also president
of southern railroad company. The
authorities refuse to make public the ex-
act charge upon which Langdon was ar
rested, but it is understood that he and
the young woman, who was Miss Annie
McGrath, aged 49, had lived together in
the house as man and wife for over g
month. Langdon is man of prominence
and IS years old. The cause of Miss Mo
Grath's death is not known. A post NOR
tenn examination was made this morning
by Coroner Phyn, but he declines to give
any particulars. Bertha Stewart, col
ored servant at the dwelling was arrested
today, presumably as a witness. The sus-
pioious part of the affair is the factsthat
Langdon suddenly disappeared from the
dwelling yesterday afternoon. The police
surgeon, who was called when the body
was found, declared man, who had
been in the house all day, could not pos
sibly have been ignorant Of her death.
The remains were discovered lying on
bed, fully attired.
There was 10 evidence pointing to foul
play.
The dead girl first met Langdon. when
the latter employed her as stenographer
and typewriter. The latter has a wife,
son and daughter, said to be living about
fourteen miles out of Pittsburg.
Langdon after his arrest, stated that he
went to the house Sunday morning. The
girl was taken ill in the afternoon. He
had fallen asleep and did not awaken un-
til II Monday morning. He thought the
girl was sleeping and left the house with
out distur bing her. That nighthe stopped
at a hotel, and this morning was sur
prised to read in the newspapers Of the
girls death.
The father of Miss McGrath is press
man, in the employ Of the Philadelphia
Times.

RESOLUTIONS IN COMMITTEE.
Conferees VIII Probably Agree On Some
Conclusion.

Washington, March 24.-The managers
on the part of the two Houses in charge
of the Cuban resolutions failed to agree
this afternoon and adjourned to meet to-
morrow at 2. ssMany.. propositions were
discussed, but it was apparent that
neithers House will adopt the text in toto
of the other. The opinion is expressed
that the Senate conferees will agree to
the first and second clauses of tho House
resolutions, striking out the third clause
which refers to the possible intervention
byth g government of the United States
to protect the legitimate interest Of our
citizens. This will remove the objeo-
tionable features discussed during the de-
bate in the Senate. 1t is thought tn g
House will accept the resolutions as SC
amended. While the members of the con.
ference adhere to the statement that NO
conclusion was even approximately
reached, they all declare that they will re-
port a conclusion that will be satisfao-
tory to bothaa Houses and will be agreed to.
