To-NIGHT,s SUGGESTION MEETINGS

This evening the Democrats Of the
various wards of this city will assem-
BILE at the times and places set forth
in our local columns TO suggest the
names OF candidates for presentation
TO the voters at the coming primaries.
The occasion is always an important
one, but this year unusually so, and it
is earnestly urged that there be large
attendance and that only those names
be presented which will bear the
closest scrutiny and command the wild
est possible endorsement and support.
The personnel OF candidates viii mean
much when election day comes around
in January. There will probably be
an unprecedented exercise of the priv
ilege OF selection upon the part OF
voters, and with that state OF affairs
existing. the best men viii be chosen
and the others left. The suggestion
meeting is the place to anticipate and
be prepared for these conditions.
Therefore attend your ward meeting

HARD DAY FOR UNCLE HARRY
COMPELLED BY SELLS ATTORNEY

Special to the Register.
COLUMBUS, O., December 5.-Mr. Geo.
S. Peters, of counsel for Peter Sells, the
Snowman, to-day wrung numerous ad-
missions from Harry Lyons, the weak
and nerveless witness, who last night ex-
hibited a spasm of strength by boldly
denying all relations with Mrs. Sells, ex-
cept that bond of sickly sentimental let
ters which had passed between them.
Before the cross-examination got grip
on him, Lyons concluded his testimony
by saying he was moved by strange in
fatuation but he had always acted tow
ard Mrs. Sells as a brother.
On cross-examination he contradicted
himself dozens of times. When she left
for Australia she gave him the name
Marie Smith to use as an address
Novel;, yes-perhaps Florence" the
daughter, was present when the ar
rangement about correspondence was
made"
No, he did not believe he was in his
right mind when he wrote those silly let
tiers. Il was a little off,
A derisive laugh from the audience
greeted this remark. His dizziness"
made him idolize Mrs Sells. 1t did not
make him hug and kiss her. but 1t made
him want to. He had kissed her; but not
often; only twice before she went to Aus
tralia. Still he was not quite sure. Oc-
casiOnally he had spent Sunday at the
Luker home at Logan and had slept in
a room which opened into the one occu-
pied by the defendant and he laughter.
He had been engaged to a gil in Pitts
burg whom he referred to as Sue in one
of his letters. He refused to give her
name. Mrs. Sells had not given him any
presents except neckties and handker-
chiefs. He had not written to her before
she went to Australia, he said, but on be-
ing shown letters he said he had written
five or six prior to her departure. Elk
cerpts were read from a letter in which
ne mentioned kissing. In one he wanted
her to kiss me in your own sweet way"
He could not remember what that way
was. One letter he says he got came
from his darling queen. This he denied
and said he was foolish when he wrote
it.
Mrs. Sells had kissed him at Logan.
That made three times.

THOMAS NOLAN DEAD.

NEW YORK, December 5.-Thomas
Nolan, assistant corporation counsel
died to-day. He was stricken with par
alysis few weeks ago and for the last
week his condition was regarded as
critical. Counsellor" Nolan, as he
was generally called, was a unique and
interesting character He was born in
the county of Cork in Ireland, and
practiced his profession there About
% years ago he came to this city, and
had practiced in the courts here ever
since. He never dropped his thick
brogue, and this characteristic, united
with a flalmboyant style of oratory and
an easy reference to the classics, soon
made him a well known figure in the
courts. The report that he was to
speak frequently drew crowds to the
court rooms. It was impossible to dis
concert him, and his easy familiarity
with the judges was as amusing as it
was difficult to rebuke.

the protest and that was that 1t was
not true. Under the provisions Of
the pending BILL said he, Owners
of foreign built ships cannot draw q
cent of bounty until they construct
in the shipyards of this country an
amount of tonnage equal to that which
they have brought from abroad.
He believed a provision for the adj
mission OF foreign built ships under
proper restrictions was wise, because
it would insure to thu United States
a respectable fleet of merchant YES
sells within a reasonable time.
The success of the venture by which
the New York and Paris had been adj
mitted to registry had induced him to
insert in the pending measure the
provision for the admission Of GER
tain fixed number of foreign built YES
sells to American registry under SINH
lar registration He did not believe
that another ship would be admitted
to American registry except those spe-
officially provided for in the pending
measure.
In conclusion Mr.. Frye referred to
what he termed "the wild and insane
criticism of the measure" criticism,
which he said, was based upon no fair
or accurate knowledge of the provis-
ions of the bill.
On motion of Mr.. Plat, Conn J,
the Senate at 3:45 p. m. held a brief
executive session and then adjourned.

MORGANTOWN.
DisKembered Body, Believed to Be
That of John Dill, Found in the

River.
Special to the Register
MORGANTOWN, w. Va, December
Sword has been received that Lo-
renzo Davis, well known citizen OF
the county who recently removed to
Chicago, is sick in Mercy hospital there
with no hopes for his recovery.
The rise in the river has stopped the
work on lock ten and has filled the
chamber with water again.
Two years ago John Dill, who was
butcher and cattle dealer of this place
disappeared. His wife and brother
searched for him for several months
unavailingly. He had been seen on
one of the river boats near Gibsonton,
Pa, but had never been seen after
wards. 1t was supposed that he had
fallen into the river. He had been
drinking heavily. A large sum of
money, which he had on his person,
was never recovered and no trace of his
whereabouts has been obtained until
the present time.
A few days ago a dismembered body
was found near Monessen by some
boys. The body was minus the head,
one arm and foot. There was moth
ing on it to lead to Identification but
the trousers, from which the pockets
had been cut. All other articles OF
clothing were missing. The undertake
er, who had the body in charge, thinks
that it may have been in the river for
two years or since the time that Dill
disappeared.
Dill was a large man Weighing over
two hundred pounds and over six feet
tall. He was we'll known all along
the valley and was known to be in
the habit of drinking heavily and OF
carrying plenty of money with him,
as all cattle men do.
His widow has been notified and
she will be in Charleroi to identify the
remains. She married in the mean
while, as she was fully satisfied that
Dill was killed or drowned. The find
has created a sensation here, where he
was we'll known and where he was IN
business at the time of his disappear
ance
1t is thought that the theory of MUIR
der and robbery has been substantial
ed by the condition of the remains and
every effort is being made to trace the
crime to those who are rasnnnsihln

one of the most forceful and elo-
quent of Presbyterian ministers of
this State. Mr.. Stokes is Vir-
ginia University graduate and
GENES from one of the best fami-
: lies of the Old Dominion. He is
well known as a lawyer and was
the Democratic candidate for State
Senate in this district at the late
election. He was prominent in
lodge circles, being an Elk and a
Shriner.
Mr.. Wolfe was also a Shrlner
and a minister of unusual forceful-
ness.
Late tonight Mrs. Levine was pre-
vailed upon to talk and in her state
ment she does much to remove the.
blame heretofore laid upon Mr..
Stokes. Her version of the story is
as follows:
The conversation had been SEEM
ingly amicable and Mr.. Stokes was
about to return the caricature in his
possession, when Mr.. Wolfe re-
marked: It's a pity that that car
toon is true Stokes asked Mr..
Wohl whether or not some of the
most eminent ladies IN town had not
protested against the pictures as be-
ing personal and false. Then it was
that Wolfe hurled the lie into
Stokes's face"
The excitement here is intense and
it is feared that others may be
drawn into the quarrel and what
now seems only an ARRAY may be-
come feud.
