Wanted for Forgery.

Some time ago Henry Refill of Car
son was engaged by Fred Dangberg to
peddle apples on the Comstoek. Refill
took load of apples to the omstock
and as Dangberg did not hear from the
team or the fruit he started an investi-
cation 1t was found that Refill had
sold the apples and pocketed the mon
ely and left for parts unknown.
Yesterday the sheriff received let
ter from VIM. Westerfeld of Reno,
enquiring for man by the name of
Stahl. 1t appears that Westerfeld was
approached by man who claimed to
know him and asked him to cash a
check on the Washoe County Bank, as
he wished to catch the train for Car
son. The check was made in the name
of H. Stahl and was supposed to have
been drawn by Fred Dangberg as it
bears his name. Mr.. Westerfeld
cashed the check and when it was
pr sented to the bank it was found to
be forgery and mir. Westerfeld is
out the amount, $50.
In endorsing the check the name of
the real culprit comes to light. 1t is
signed by H. Refill and then crossed
out with ink and the name of Stahl
written across it. AS Refill has COM
mitted the crime of forgery, it is likely
!! that be will find himself in serious
trouble.
One of the worst features of the en-
tire matter is that the man leaves a
family in this city in destitute circum.
stances. 1t was only yesterday that
the county helped the wife and four
small children with wood to keep them
warm and few provisions. Reihl
has been in shady transactions before,
but this is the first time that he has
gone within the grip of the law and
the chances are favorable for him to
land in the cooler or penitentiary.-

Rush was attacked and severely
beaten at his office under the United
States Express Company. AS is his
custom he left his home, 926 Walnut

fice, intending to write some letters.
At about o'clock the workmen ar
rived and found him in the back room,
unconscious, with terrible cash in
the back OF his head. He regained
consciousness AT one time sufficiently
to inform his folks that while writing
he heard someone in the back room,
and he went to see who was there.
Immediately upon entering the door he
was struck with piece of pipe and
fell unconscious upon the floor. At no
time did he sufficiently arouse to give
a clear conception OF what took place.

For some time back the company has
been missing pieces OF pipe and other
articles, and 1t Is generally supposed
that the miscreant, whoever he is, was
concealed for the purpose OF carrying
away more material.

The bdtterest political fight that ever

ended with the closing OF the polls last

down and party afiIiations disrupted
in the fierce factional fight which be-
gan with the withdrawal Of Hardin
townships delegation from the county
convention. Every schoo! house in the
county has held political gatherings
and every precinct sustained house,
to -alouse canvass by each OF the oppos-
ing factions. The vote cast yesterday
is practically the entire vote OF the

offices OF sheriff and supervisor, with
the contests for representative and

ad Nebraska.
Baltimore Nov. 3.-Indications point
to heavy vote thruout the state. The
weather is perfect and all conditions
favorable for bringing out a full vote.
Bulletins so far received. report the
election as progressing quietly every
wherf. So far as known there have
been no cutting tickets anywhere. the
vote being a fair test of party strength
in the state.
The fortunes of the day have
depended largely upon the cleo
ton Judges. The ballot is marvel
of confusion to the more ignorant and
illiterate, nearly as big as common
newspaper page and containing seven
ty- three names of candidates on the
four itate tickets and the city tickets.
Each name voted for must be marked
with u cross and the complication has
result I'd in the throwing out of thou
sands of negro votes, as it was intended
to do. Moreover hundreds of ignorant
and careless whites have lost their
votes from the same cause.
At II o'clock the chairnen OF the
republican and democratic committees
are both claiming the victory, but no
definite figures are obtainable. The Sit
uation is a peculiar one. In the regis
tratiol of Baltimore alone. there are
1882 undeclared votes. that is, voters
who aclined in registering to give their
party affiliation. This includes over
5000 Independents. the balance OF
power. There are 10000 negro voters
in thu. state Not all are registered.
The republicans have had schools OF
instruction" for their colored illiterates
going. thruout the state ever since the
official ballot was promulgated and
the democrats have started similar In
stituttons in the city for the ignorant
whites. The election machinery is en-
tirely in the control OF the democrats
and they have used 1t in the counties
as far as they could. under the law,
to make the official ballots a puzzle to
the illiterate negroes.
Another element of uncertainty is
furnished by. the evidence that
there will be an uausua number
of split. tickets developed in the count.
The democratic leaders in the city
have been by no means enthu-
slastIc for Warfield, while the Mud
Wachtar-J Jackson (the three republican
conrre ssmen) faction is intensely hos
tile to Senator McComas.

Ros,pn. Nov. 4.-There are not many

surprising gains The total vote in the

Bates, republican, 26,642. Gaston's
plurality, 1877. Last year Castor car
ried thtse precincts by 1888.
There was no particular issue in
Massachusetts except the battle of the
parties. The republicans sought to re-
elect Governor Bates who went into
office W tn plurality of $4,000. 1t was
conceded the day before election that
this lea would be materially reduced
and ele,tion day dawned with repub-
licans confident and democrats hope
full.
Careful inquiry into the problem of
the socialist vote was undertaken. 1t
was not entirely successful, but it was
noticeable that many democrats who
voted for the socialists last year voted
for William A. CASTOR this year.
The republicans did something Nor

preston Governor Bates ordered the
entire force of the state police depart
ment on duty az the polls to watch for
fraudulent voters. This is the first time
in the history of the state that this
has beer done, and the democrats were
qltck to seize upon the news and send
1t broadcast. especially into democrat

in Bates vote is ascribed by his friends
to his appointment of the present
