A DECISION BY JUDGE MCPHERSON
Declares the Amended Ballot Law Uncon-
stituHonal, in That It is an Inter
ference With the Free Right
Of Suffrage

Harrisburg. Sept 30.-Judge McPher-
son heard argument yesterday after
noon on the application of the Phila-
delphia city Democratic committee for
writ of mandamus to compel Sec
retary of the Commonwealth Martin to
certify the nominations Of Judges Wilt
bank, Breezy, Audenried and Ferguson,
of Philadelphia. for printing in the
Democratic column on the official ball
lots. They were first nominated by the
Republicans and subsequently by the
Democrats. Secretary Martin declined
to place the names twice on the official
ballot Judge Mcpherson said that he
had no doubt of the illegallty of the
provision Of the statute that a name
may appear only once on the ballot
He made an order that the mandamus
Issue without leaving the bench.
John G.. johnson and Michael J. Ryan, of
Philadelphia, and ex Deputy Attorney Gen
eral Stranahan, of Harrisburg, appeared for
the City Committee, and Attorney General
Mccormick and Deputy Attorney General
Reeder for the other side.
Mr. Mccormick lid that Secretary Martin
made no resistance to the application, and
that he was authorized to say for Governor
Hastings that if the section Of the law re
quiring that the name Of candidate may
appear only once on the ballot had stood
alone when the bill was before him for con
sideration he would have disapproved it
Mr.. Mccormick also stated that this pro
vision of the act was evidently passed with
out due consideration of its consequences
and that he was in accord with argument oi
counsel of the other side
The decision of Judge Mcpherson covers
the case of Judge 0. p. Bechtel, of Schuyl-
kill county, who was nominated by the Re
publicans and subsequently by the Demo
Gratis His name will, therefore, appear al
the top of both the Republican and Demo
cratic columns on the official ballot.

IT WAS A MISTAKE.
simon Klein's Arrest Was Caused by a
False Report.


Isaac Levine is junk dealer Of town. He
employs Simon Klein to go about with
horse and wagon and buy up old powder
kegs, rags, gum boots, &c. Yesterday they
had settlement and there was two dollars
due Klein. Levine gave him a $50 bill to
get changed and Klein failed to return. The
junk dealer caused warrant to be issued
and Klein was arrested. When the parties
met before Justice Shoemaker Klein made a
satisfactory explanation of his failure to re-
turn with the change. Levine said he would
not have caused the arrest had he not been
told that Klein was about to depart for New
York. The latter denied the story and the
case was settled, the prosecutor paying two
thirds of the costs and the defendant one
third. Their business relations continue as
before.

The PaIo Alto Suicide.

The Coroner's jury last night rendered
verdict in the matter of Miss Hattie
Swayze's death at Palo Alto. The principal
witness was DIR. John NJ. Gray, of Port Car
bon, who testified that it was strange the in
mates of the adjoining room did not hear at
least gargling sound, inasmuch as the door
separating the rooms was open. The fact
that the razor was found under the bed cloth
ing was a mystery, and unexpected. The
doctor thought it almost impossible for the
girl to have inflicted the injuries which
caused her death, and be in the condition in
which he found her. He regarded the case
as a remarkable one. Frank DOttlewich, who,
it is alleged, was on friendly terms with the
girl, was recalled and assumed an air of in
difference in giving his testimony. The
jury, after a consultation, returned verdict
that the said Hattie Swayze came to death,
at the hands of persons unknown to the jury.
It will be seen that the jury ignores the
theory of suicide, leaving that an open ques-
ton to be acted upon by the District
Attorney, who was invited to be present at
the inquest.
