When the girl from Paroze. alleged TO be
the child's mother. was questioned in court

midwife. The witness was shown photo
graphs of six children and Was asked il she
recognized her own child. She selected the

cal months of her illness. and who had tes-
tffed I'm the defendants favor at the pre-
vious trial in Poss and who is now accused

cially for the little boy. for whom she
wanted TO save the estate and title.

are recommended by the Assembly district
leaders of the two leading parties to their
respective county committees and by the
latter to the board of elections. For the
members of either party to serve as elec-
ton officials of the other party il would be
necessary to pass the scrutiny of. the As
sembly district leader. There have been
hints OF collusion between the interested
parties for several days. Names and all

Bait, quarantine officer at large of the
Pennsylvania State Board of Health, an
nouncing that at conference in Washing
ton, D. c., between DR.. Bait and DR.. Ben
jamin Lee, secretary OF the State Board of
Health, it decided to quarantine Allie
gheny because of the smallpox. The tele-
gram states that DR.. Batt and other state
officials will arrive about noon to-day
Thursday and the quarantine will be cs-
tablished.
City Solicitor S. G. Porter. of Allegheny
City, stated this morning that IL Dr. Bait
or any other officer tried to quarantine the
city he would Immediately order their ar
Scandrett, director of Public Safety of AL
lesheny, alleges that the quarantine is the
result of the city of Allegheny declining
TO order fumigator manufactured by a
concern in which a State Board of Health
Official IS interested. Two-thirds OF the
residents of Allegheny, which has popula-
tion OF 10000, have business interests or
are employed in Pittsburg.
''All these disgracefui reports concern
ing the alleged quarantine OF the city
are put out for political reasons" said
Councilman Robinson yesterday.
There are not to-day twenty cases OF
smallpox, and that. too. with a population
of over 10000. OF these about oDe-half are
conv alescent All other reports and rumors
that are being circulated are baseless and
unwarranted," said City Physician Jamison.

posted sufficient funds to cover his paper.
On behalf of the bank its attorney, Levy
Mayer, declared that Fry had no funds TO
his credit at the time payment was refused.
George w. Plummer. attorney for Banker
Fry, declared to-day that the action of the
Chicago bank had never been explained, al
though IL had practically acknowledged its
mistake by honoring the checks and drafts
after the damage had been done and Fry's
bank account closed. Fry was hopelessly
ruined" said Attorney Plummer. when
the action of the American Trust and Saw
ings Bank became known In other banks in
Chicago and Indianapolis his credit was
ruined and he was compelled to close his

The plaintiff then drew checks against the
bank. When they were presented payment
was refused because he had no funds to his

T0SCANO WAS DRUNK.


MEXICO CITY, Oct. 2S.-Reports received
from Guanajuato minimize the first details
of the alleged attempt on the life OF Pres
ident Diaz. 1t is now said that Toscano
was undoubtedly drunk. The Mexican Her.
aids special correspondent at Guanajuato
wired that Elias Toscano. who was on
horseback. fired into the air as the Pres
idents car was passing. The man claims
he was moved at the moment TO salute the
President. but the story Is doubted in some
quarters The car was crowded with off,
Gals and friends of the President, so that
had Toscano fired AT the car somebody
surely would have been hit
President Diaz wires here that the report
OF the attempt on his life is false. However
IL Is known that precautions were taken
on the Presidents going to Guanajuato lest
some fanatic or crank should make an at
tempt on his life There was no reason to
fear anything from the people OF that city,
whose welcome TO the chief magistrate has
been cordial and even enthusiastic.
The President IS very cool and cour-
ageous man. and in his daily going about
at this capital he has no guards His con-
fidenee in the people is great. He can con-
fidently rely on personal popularity with all
classes. High officials OF the government
deny that Toscano had any intention OF
shootin: the President.

pEc11NEs TO PASS VOUCHER.
Treasury Departments Action Regard
ing Account of Garbage Collector.

hitch has arisen in the adjustment OF
the matter at issue between the Dfstrict
Commissioners and the Washington Fer
tilizer Company, which has the contract Tor
collecting garbage throughout the city The
hitch has come in the shape of notifica-
ton from the Treasury Department through
the District auditor that the department
cannot PASS the voucher for 81 600 recently
issued in favor of the company.
As a result of the failure of the company
to make daily collections of garbage in GER
tain sections this amount of the pay due
the company was withheld until satisfac-
tory explanations could be made. The serv-
ice has been satisfactory, so FAR as COM
plants were concerned. for but rev or these
have lately been received The question
was as to the letter OF the contract The
treasury intimates that unless the voucher
can be accompanied by a certificate to the
effect that the work has been performed in
full in accordance with the terms of the
contract the payment cannot be made. A dis
tinction has been made between a salts
factory service and daily service.
The District authorities have now set
about examining more closely into the mat
ter to find just how far short Of the con-
tract specifications the, service has fallen.
In this way the exact amount to be de-
Quoted will be ascertRined. The Commits
sioners were informed by the company that
the necessary teams had been secured and
daily collections would begin today.
