CATLIN'S INSULT TO
THE COLORED VOTERS.
Sensation at Mass Meeting in the Fourth Ward One Night
This Week.
This Week.

me. You said that you had no money,
but would get 1000 from your friends in
the Seventh ward soon and would dis
tribute it in the Fourth ward amongst
those where you thought it would do
the most good.
Il said that didn't want anything to
do with the deal,'' continued jackson;
that I was in favor of an open cam
paign; that all the boys in the Fourth
ward liked Hickey and that such talk
was unworthy of you. That's what I
said, and when you saw you couldn't
line me up at the crack Of your whip,
you said:
4" For Gods sake! Don't say anything
about this for three days until Fred
Schiffmann comes back Put that in
your pipe and smoke it,
Catlin stood stunned for a while, but
awoke from his trance in bomb-shell
fashion.
you're a liar he cried.
Jackson made lunge for the speaker,
but was held back by his friends. There
were about $50 colored men in the hall
and it looked for a fraction of a minute
as if there would be a small riot.
Sam Amber, chairman of the evening,
having a due sense of responsibility upon
his shoulders and being endowed with
good sense, rose from his seat and de-
manded order. He pounded the table
with all his might and cried out Justify.
With the combined efforts of himself and
others trouble was averted.
Catlin wants to go to the legislature,
but the truth is the longer his canvas
the poorer his prospects.
James R. Hickey will carry the ward
without any doubt.

Voters, and Also Election
Judges, as to the Mix
Up on the Ticket.

Chairman L. A. Rosing, of the Demo-
cratic state central committee, yesterday
received the following opinion from AS
sistant Attorney General Somerby:
Replying to your favor of Oct. 80, would
say that under Chapter 49,, Laws 1899,
two members of the board of railroad
and warehouse commissioners are to be
elected at the coming general election for
the term of four years, and one member
for the term of two years.
Nominations for these offices have been
made by the various political parties,
and three. sets of candidates appear upon
the official ballot in the following order,
viz: q Republican, (2) Democrat-Peo-
pies, (3( Mid-Road Populists In each in
stance by the order of arrangement upon
the ballot the two candidates of each
such party's candidate for the two-year
term, and the voters are instructed upon
the ballot TO vote for three
You ask in your communication as to
the proper instructions to be given to
voters with, reference to the marking
of their ballots in voting for the three
offices which are to be filed.
In answer to this question would say
that the electors should select one person
from the tWO-year term nominees and
indicate their choice by the usual cross
mark after the names of such persons in
the proper column upon the ballot They
should likewise select two persons from
the candidates running for the four year
offices, and indicate their choice for such

each of the two names so selected by the
voter.
With reference to the canvassing of
the votes cast for these offices, you ask
the following question: If an electOr
votes for two men who are nominated
for the two-year term, how should those
votes be canvassed?"
In answer thereto, would say, that it
is my opinion neither vote should be
counted.
You further ask: eff an elector should
cast his ballot for three of the candi-
dates who are nominated for the four
year term, how then should the vote
be canVaSsed?'
Answering this inquiry would say, that

CHIMES NOT in FAVOR
CITY HALL AND COURT HOUSE COM
MISSION ABANDONS THEM.


The joint city hall and court house
commission met last evening.
Relative to a lighting plant for the city
hall, which hobs up annually as the time
approaches for the expiration of the
yearly contract with the gas company,
Commissioner Haas said he understood
the matter would be discussed at the
meeting, but no@une offered to bring the
matter up officially, and it was dropped.
The chairman, however, was empowered
to call the commission together about the
middle of the month, should it be deem
ed eXpedient to inquire into the matter
further.
AS to the court house chimes, which
have failed to respond .. the past six
months, Commissioner Moriarty remark
ed that he understood an effort was on
foot to have them repaired. The consen-
sus of opinion seemed to- be that chimes
We're out Of date, and the best thing to
do was to let them alone. -
Business men. Who have Offices in the
vicinity of the court house block, it is I'M
derscod, are -decidediyaagainst the putting
in repair of the clock chimes.
H. H. Fuller, of the ~Gern1ania Life
building, and number of others, made
their appearance at the meeting of the
city hall and court house commission
yesterday afternoon to protest, but as no
acuon was taken no thing was said.
In a number of the big cities, including
Chicago, New York and philadelphia.
clock chimes have been discarded, and
the fact is greatly apprecia ted by those
having residences or places of business
within their sound.
The matter of selecting rooms for the
use of the city physician and his assist
ants was referred ito -t1fe@ Committee on
grounds and buildings.
Claims for the month and the janitors'
pay roll were read and allowed.

If Frederick M. Catlin, Republican can
didate for the legislature in the Fourth
ward, doesn't feel just about this time
as if he has. been cheWed up and spit
out, and that by a gentleman of the col
ored persuasion, it ism t his fault. Night
before last he attempted to Out-Eagen

suited every colored voter in the Fourth
ward and came near receiving rough
treatment for doing So, He practically
called the colored voters Of the city
thieves.
There was a rally at 354 Cedar strict.
The hall was packed. Catlin was there,
and SO, too, was Edward Jackson, a col
ored voter and political leader in the
Fourth ward Catlin WAS making an
address, during the course of which he
said: q
d. II tell you, ], am informed on good
authority that Hickey has paid out $50
to the colored voters of this city TO"
their votes. Any colored man who votes
for him under such circumstances is dis
honest"
At this there was such a commotion
that Catlin held his. breath. He was
sorry he spoke. Then Edward Jackson
stood up and in loud. - angry, >steelly
voice, cried out:
"N hat about that 81, 600 that you said
the silk stocking element of the Seventh
ward would distribute if we would only
waltz"

WOES Of THE WEBERS.
Former ST. Paul People in Court at
Philadelphia.

Philadelphia,
A story Of extreme cruelty, involving
former residents of ST. Paul, comes from
Philadelphia. 1t was told in the trial of
c. NJ Weber, who is charged in the Phil
adelphia courts with driving his wife to
insanity by cruel treatment.
Weber is the proprietor of the Lafayette
hotel at Reading. The suit was brought
by Mrs. Virginia Humphreys, his mother
in-law, to compel him to provide for the
support of his wife, who is now an in
mate of the Kirlkbridge asylum. The
wedding took place in 1886. Soon after
ward Weber was employed by the Pinher
ton Detective agency and stationed in st.
Paul Here, 1t is charged, he beat his
wife, and finally placed her in the in
sane hospital in Rochester. Mrs. Web
er's brother found her there so it is said,
and secured her release. She was brought
to Philadelphia, and one day in 1898, it is
charged, Weber took her with him to
Norristown and placed her in the asy-
ium there. Later Mrs. Humphreys had
her removed to Kirkbridge, and, it is
reported, has paid 81 a week since for her
support The question has arisen as to
whether Weber could be compelled to
support his wife in Philadelphia, when
she was originally committed to the Nor
ristown asylum at the expense of Mont
gOncerY county.
