The result Of Tuesdays election
possesses no particular National
significance. The vote in Ohio is
an emphatic Endorsement of Senator
Hanna, and the victory won by
Tammany has no bearing on
National issues. New York State
is Republican, and can be counted
upon to give the Presidential ticket
heavy majority next year. 1t is
also about time to take Indiana
out of the doubtful column. The
Hoosier State can safely be placed
in the Republican list, when max
ing up a forecast of the result of
the contest in 1904.

He spent most of the day In his room.
About 4 o'clock Mrs Durham and a

then went out into the back yard and
suddenly sank to the ground, He was

U. 5, Marshal Arrests Him in Den

Samuel Pickett, who has not yet been
forgotten by the numerous creditors he
left behind him In Salt Lake, nor the
actors and actresses whom he engaged
at large salaries for n proposed opera
at saltair during the past summer, has
finally come to grief and landed In his
proper place, In jail.
The following paragraph from Den
yer will be read with interest, as it
was at that place that he was finally
run to earth:
Sam Pickett, a travelling organizer
of theatrical companies, was arrested
in this city today and arraigned before
United States Commissioner Capron on
charge of using the malls to defraud,
His bond was fixed at $500, Pickett
came from Salt Lake City recently, and
announced his intention of organizing
an opera company. He Is accused Of
frauduently obtaining money from
would-be actors, managers, etc, for
whom he advertised"
Pickett, II VIII be remembered, did a
good deal OF advertising while here. In
one instance he advertised for treas
urer OF the company, who In order to
set the position must have $500 In cash.
A young one-armed man applied for II
and put up $3.50 on account and gave
security for the remaining $3.50. The
young man got the job and Pickett got
the money, which he kept. II Is re-
ported that II. l.. Landrum, who once
ran a dramatic college here was also
victim to the tune OF several hundred
| dollars.
About the meanest thing he did while
here was TO engage number Of young
girls who were to take part in the
| proposed opera, and not only beat them
out of their salaries. but the hotels and
| boarding houses, at which he obtained
credit for them and whose bills he also
left unpaid.
| While here he spent a good deal OF
his time at the Auditorium hotel, at As
East Third South street, whose bill he
also forgot to pay, when he took his
sudden departure during the latter part

ment authorities are dealing with him

McKeesport, Pa, Oct 16.--As the re-
suit of an attempt by three officers to
arrest negroes at Glassport tonight,
Constable William Shields of Glassport,
aged -, was shot through the heart
and almost instantly killed, and Peter
Melvin, one Of the negroes was shot
dead by Patrick Kelley. For some time
several negroes have been creating
trouble and were always ready to pick
quarrel.
Today they attempted TO shoot Will
liam Shields and Officer Joseph Morris,
who swore In Patrick Kelley as a
special officer Tho three men started
for the scene of the trouble. They
found one Of the men In company with
another negro named Patrick Melvin.
The officers started forward, calling on
the negroes to surrender. Morris caught
Melvin by the arm and upon Melvin
attempting resistance, Constable Shields
started forward to help Morris. Mel
yin pulled revolver from his pocket
and fired, Shields fell to the ground
with bullet in his heart and Melvin,
wrenching himself loose. escaped.
Kelley encountered Melvin entering a
store near by and attempted to place
him under. arrest. Both men opened
fire, each emptying his revolver, and
Melvin staggered and fell. He was
taken TO nearby store, where he died
within few minutes. Two doctors
Of Mclkeesport had been called to at
tend the wounded men, but by the time
they arrived both Shields and Melvin
had died, 1t Is thought that the third
negro escaped on freight train and
officers started out to capture him.
