CANDIDATE w1rHDRAws
From the Pennsylvania Republican
Stnka Ticket.

From the PennsylvantR Hepuoican
State Ticket.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Oct. 1s.-Jo-
slah R. Adams, of this city, who was
nominated by the Republican state con-
ventIon lest August, as a candidate for
Judge Of the superior court, tonight
sent letter to General Frank Reeder,
chairman OF the Republican state COM
mittee, withdrawing from the ticket.
Mr.. Adams withdrawal Is the sequel
Of an attack made upon him by
Philadelphia morning newspaper. Mr..
Adams was charged by the paper with
being the president Of corporations
which are alleged to have swindled
many persons Ia Pennsylvania and 9TH
er states. The newspaper continued the
attacks and Mr.. Adams was urged by
newspapers OF both Of the big parties
and his friendsito answer the charges.
Yesterday he issued long statement In
answer to the accusation which he
branded as being absolutely and un-
uuaIIhedly false" He did not deny his
connection with the alleged swlndling
concerns, but positively asserted that
he had no knowledge that they were
other than Legitimate enterprises and
that when complaints reached him OF
questionable transactions on the part
OF agents Of the companies, he immedi-
ately withdrew from all connection
with the concerns.
Mr.. Adams withdrawal was decided
upon at a conference held late this az
ternoon in the Office Of Director OF Pub
lie Safety English in the city hall. The
conference was secret one, and what
actually took place at the meeting was
not made public.
Under the rules of the party the va
cancy on the ticket will have to be fill
ed by the state committee. General
Reeder when seen tonight, said that
he did not know when the committee
would be called together, but thought
that meeting would be held next
week.
