ALTGELD ON CROKER.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., September s.
Ex-Governor Altgeld said tonight IN
regard to the attitude of Richard Gro
ker toward the Chicago platform:
"Mr. Croker is a shrewd and willy par
tisan. If he declared for Mr.. Bryan it
was because he saw which way the tide
was turning"
Mr.. Altgeld denied his reported state
ment that Croker with Bryan would be
an entangling alliance which would not
be for the best interests of the Demo-
cratic party.
''If Mr.. Croker wants to drop his pres
ent methods and come into camp for a
while" said Mr.. Altgeld, eve are will
ing to receive him. There is always
room for penitents"
Mr.. Altgeld referred to Mayor Carter
Harrison as troubled with presidential
aspirations for period and carrying
on flirtations with several States. The
leaders came together, said he, and de-
cided there was no room for trim
mers."
Notice was served on all Chicago
platform Democrats to stand no tri-
fling said Mr.. Altgeld. "As a farmer
attempts to drive all his cattle through
gap in the fence, so we tried to lead
all Democrats on the Bryan side.''
do you think you can drive Mr.. Cor
man, OF Maryland, through the gap?"
was asked.

some SURPRISES DEVELOPED AT
THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES
OVER THE RIVER HOLDINGS
WORTH MEN SLIPPED UP" ON
WEEMS-CARROLL CONTROLL-
I. ED BY FIMPLE.

The last ante convention brush be-
tween the Republican factions IN The
Sixteenth Ohio Congressional district
came off atsthe primaries held through
ont four of the five counties Saturday.
The results wexe little different than
anticipated, although as might have
been expected there were few sur
prises of a minor nature. In Belmont
county where all the delegates were
conceded to c. L. Weems a surprise
was sprung by e@Hollingsworth men
in several Of the townships. 1t APP
pears the Hollingsworth men had been
working the matter up quietly and
they came very near catching their
opponents mapping. In the Bethesda
precinct, in Goshen township, the Hol-
lingsworth men captured delegate,
which makes break in the solid front
anticipated by the Weems people. In
precinct No. in Pultney township,
there was a stubborn fight, but the
Weems delegate won out by five votes.
There were also contests either for first
or second choice in Union. Richland
and Flushing townships. At st. Glars
VILE Clerk l.. E. Emerson and Attorney
ALI. Mitchell contested for second
choice, Emerson, Gill man, having
the best of it. Mitchell was for Hol-
lingsworth.
The fact that second choice" was
made quite consideration in the Bel
mont county primaries indicates lack
of confidence on the part Of the
Weems boomers.
The fact that Gill has secured 43 out
of the As delegates in Jefferson county
will give him prestige in the conven-
ton and will sustain his reputation
as the most influential Republican in
Jefferson county. He will now be
greater factor than Hollingsworth, and
taking all things into consideration
will be scarcely less potent than Weems.
There is scarcely a doubt that he is the
administration favorite and he will
have more to promise in the way of
patronage to the Carroll and Monroe
delegations than any other candidate
that will be before the convention. A
Bellaire Republican yesterday after
reading the report of the Jefferson
county primaries in the Register was
willing to place even money On Gill.
A report received by wire last night
states that Hon. ]. H. Fimple carried
10 of the II delegates in Carroll coun-
ty Saturday. Butler will control the
other two. This is to be considered
another point in favor of Gill, although
there is some dispute upon that point.
The present week will doubtless de-
velop some interesting phases as the
candidates have no longer to deal with
the people, but with the delegates and
the bosses

refer haher hHOchs out Joe hen-
nedy i'm Two Rounds.
NEW YORK. Sept. 27.-Joe Kennedy, the
California heavyweight, who recently earn
ed a decision over Gus Rubin, in San
Francisco, was an easy mark for the heavy
hitting Irish fighter, Peter Maher, at the
Lenox Athletic Club last night. Kennedy
was knocked cold in the second round with
two quick, heavy, left-hand hooks on the
point of the jaw. Kennedy was heralded
as coming man in the heavyweight class
and when he stripped he certainly looked
like a powerful adversary. He was quick
on his feet, but Maher was even quicker.
The Californian had a big advantage in
weight and was Peters superior in phys
ique, but bulk without science cannot win.
Maher had the science as well as the
punching power. He fought carefully and
with beautiful judgment of distance. When
the opportunity came he took advantage
OF it and ripped in a couple of blows in
such rapid succession that Kennedy was
poweTless to avoid them. The big Cali
fornian had his nose broken in the first
round, and when he was put to sleep his
face was covered with b.ood. He appeared
to have a chance up to the time of the
knockout, which came Unexpectedly. as
Kennedy was not in serious distress until
Maher landed on his chin.
Maher will now go after some of the star
heavyweights, his idea being to get on
match with the winner of the coming JEFF
fries-S s-Sharkey fight That Maher is in
better fighting trim just now than for some
time past was conciusively demonstrated
by his showing last night. Kennedy can
only be regarded as an exploded phenome-
non.
