character
Justice Edward Patterson was the
first witness of the day. He testified
that he paid several thousand dollars,

contributions were not allowed Jus
were $4,000. He opposed the payment
of large sums, but did not object TO
reasonable expenses being paid by ju-
dicial candidates. Justice Giegerich
paid Tammany Hall ST. 1000 He did not
see why judicial candidates ought to
be exempt as long as political parties
needed money. Justice Scott's expen-
ses were 80 .9j5 He thought Il would
be an advantage to the public If all
candidates, judicial included, could be
relieved from election expenses.

tions by judicial candidates. Justice

over $1,000 He said he could see no

BURGLARS AROUND.

Burke.

At one o'clock this morning masked bur
glars visited the residence Of Borough
Solicitor Burke, on North Main street. They
secured nothing, but gave the family scare
they do not wish to experience again. Mrs
Burke was the FIRST to discover their
presence. She WAS awakened by a
noise made by the opening Of her
bedroom door. The room is the
front one on the secoud floor. As Mrs Burke
awoke she saw two masked men in the room.
One was stealthily making his way towards
Mrs Burke's side Of the bed. Mrs. Burke
screamed and scrambled over her husband to
the floor on the opposite side Of the bed.
Seeing one Of the men draw something from
his hip pocket that looked like a revolver
Mrs Burke screamed Don't shoot me
know you; you know I know you" She
was almost hysterical through fright. She
raised a window sash and her husband be-
lieves she would have leaped to the ground
had he not seized her
Meanwhile there was third masked man
crouching in the hallway and just outside
the room. Mrs. Burke's sister had seen him
pass her bedroom. She hastily put on a gown
and rushed down the stairs. She ran out
the dining room door at the side Of the
house, thence to Main street and down to
Coal. She screamed as she ran and her cries
attracted the attention of Watchman o. Hara,
who hurried to the house, but the burglars
had disappeared. One Of the burglars
followed Miss Foley, Mrs. Burke's sister.
during her fight through the house. He
found the screen door leading from the din
ing room to the side porch locked with a
spring lock. He forced the door, breaking
the lock and part of the screen.
Examination Of the premises showed that
the burglars entered the transom above the
kitchen door. They entered and escaped by
means of the gate at the rear end of the
premises. 1t is believed arrests will be made.

quest of Governor Lloyd Lowndes,

the Republican ticket. General Thomas
j. Shryock was elected to succeed him,
General Shryock is state treasurer and
grand master Mason of Maryland.
In endorsing his resignation Sena-
tor Wellington delivered a speech in
which he accused the governor of
double dealing and treachery, and all
legged that, in conjunction with Sena-
tor McComas, Congressman Sydney e.
Mudd and others the chief executive
had gone into a combination TO de-
stroy the speakers future political
prospects.
Senator Wellington's action is the
result of a controversy between him
and Governor Lowndes over the ac-
tion of the state central committee a
few days ago in appointing committees
on finance and the conduct of the cam
paign. This was deemed an affront
by Senator Wellington, and in an in
terview the next day he attacked
