GUARD THE BALLOTS.
Sheriff Causes Trouble in
Delaware.

Wilmington, Del, Nov. 6.-At 1 o'clock
this afternoon the canvassing board is
still in session counting the vote Of New
castle county. They were at work in the
courthouse all night surrounded con-
stantly by bowling mob. The impress
Son had gone forth that the Democratic
inspectors intended to count out William
r. Flynn (Rep.) for sheriff and this
caused Republicans to swear vengeance
in the event of the alleged plan being
carried into effect. Democrats were
betting that James B. Toman, Flynn's
OPPONENT, would have 40 majority. A
quick count of the sheriff tables by the
clerks, however, showed that Flynn, hot
withstanding the changes, was still 184
ahead. On the strength of this informa-
ton, all Democratic money offered on
Toman was freely taken.
Sheriff Gillis, in order to be in readi-
ness to suppress any outbreak, has
sworn in 100 deputies. The militia COM
Danies of the city were also called upon
and uniformed men were hurried to the
armory of the First regiment, d. n. G.,
located about four blocks from the court
house. The sight of the militia only
served to increase the excitement.
This afternoon the sheriff, aided by
over 100 deputies, managed to get the
courtroom cleared of the disorderly mob.
Then the doors were locked and all out
siders were barred
The clerks in the courtroom, who were
exhausted by their long and wearisome
labors, essayed to add the long columns
of figures that they had compiled. Long
before the sheriff column was reached
they differed in totals. Then adding
machines were suggested, and a rest
was allowed to ascertain if the ma
chimes could be procured from the banks
of this city This was the situation at 2
o'clock, with no indication of further
trouble 1t is hardly possible no. that
the count can be completed before night,
even with the adding machines. Some of
the militiamen are still at the armory.

SANTA FE RECEIVERSHIP.
Suit Instituted by an Old Litigant,
1t is Said, to Collect a
Private Claim.

New York, Nov. 6.-Victor Morawitz,
general counsel of the Atchison road,
says of the action of Judge Myers at
Oskaloosa, Kas., yesterday in placing the
road and equipment of the Atchison, To-
peka & Santa Fee road in that state in
the hands of a receiver: 1.-THE ac
ton of the Kansas court in plac
ing 4SO miles of our line under it's juris-
diction by appointing a receiver comes
to us as a great surprise. We do not
understand it and cannot see how the
law touching Kansas lands applies to the
Atchison Railway company. 1t is not
quite clear why such summary action
should be taken without giving some
sort of notice. AS it is we have been
appraised of the courts action only
through private dispatches
Topeka, Kas., Nov. 6.-Although the
receivership suit is brought ostensibly in
the name of the state Of Kansas under
what is known as the Alien LAND law
passed in 1891, it is said to be really for
the purpose of forcing the payment of a
private claim. A man named Mabie has
a claim of $4,000 or $4,000 for in
iuries received in the state of Illinois
against the old A. 7. & S. f. Railroad
company, and has been seeking to COM
pei the present A. t. & S. +. company
to pay the claim, and the matter has
been pending before special master in
the federal court for long time

Chicago, Ill, Nov. CDR. w. Lewis
Tallman, house physician at the Great
} Northern hotel, and very widely known
in Chicago aid vicinity, has mysterious
the police have been able to ascertain
his present whereabouts or the reason
for his disa opearance.
AS Dr.. Tallman was we'll known at
various places in Wisconsin on account
of his former extensive practice in that
state and his frequent visits to fishing
resorts, kilograms have been sent to
many points in that state where it was
thought that he might have gone, but
without result.
The simultaneous disappearance of
Mrs. Jennie Cannon, an attractive
widow in whose company the doctor is
said to have spent much time, has led
the police to put the two cases together
and have one investigation serve for
both.

Tully, Onondaga county, n. Y, in
1853 and comes of an old New England
family of Holland Dutch descent. His
mother is of the well-known Williams
family of Pierrepont manor, N. Y. He

towns Cazenovia and Courtland, n. Y,
and entered the New York Polytechnic
when II years of age. He graduated
from the Bellevue Hospital Medical col
lege in 1881, and went to London,
Paris and Berlin, where he stud
led in the largest hospitals there.
On his return to America he was
equipped for immediate entrance into
active practice, and for eight years
served as surgeon for the Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul railroad. During
this period he had very large private
practice throughout Wisconsin, though
he made his headquarters at the Ire
mont house of this city. where he soon
found himself in possession Of a very
lucrative hotel practice.
In 1891 he moved to the Great North
ern hotel, where he has been house ply

A light broke in on Timmons. This
would explain all. This would make Sta
mer's story consistent with his own expe
rience of the night before. This would
account for this man, whom Stamer said
he had shot, being here now, uninjured.
This would make the later version of the
tale about Milwaukee possible, credible.
But-awful built would mean that the
unfortunate, afflicted deputy had been
sacrificed! Yes, most Of what this man
had said was true.

the dwarf. in a voice which shook the
unceiled josts above their heads and
made the thinner plates of metal yibrate.

The morning following Hanbury's visit

rival of the ladies in the sitting-room re-

had been too excited when she went to
bed after the young mans disclosures
to sleep, and it was not until the small
hours were growing big that the girl could
close her eyes. AS a consequence she
was late.
Neither grandmother nor granddaughter
was in humor to talk. Edith was eccu-
pied with her own thoughts. They had
nothing to do that day, for Edith had
made up her mind to do nothing about
new situation until Monday. 1t being
now Saturday, there was no time to take
any steps that week.
They had not sat down to breakfast
until half-past nine, and by ten they had
not finished AS the little clock on the
