cording to some of the solans the
probabilities are that Mr.. I-/es viii

given the fight for the vice-presiden

of the solans say that the Fist and

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 24.-John 4.
Tener, Republican candidate for gov
ernor of Pennsylvania, today sWore out
a warrant for the arrest of q. A. Van
Valkenburg, editor and president oil
the North American Company of this
city. charging him with criminal libel.
The warrant was issued by Mag1s-
trate William j. Gallagher, but 1t was
not served Francis Skunk Brown, A,
8. l.. Shields and George S. Graham,
counsel for Mr.. Tener, and leading at
torneys of Philadelphia, sent letter
to Mr. Van valkenburg informing him
of the action the gubernatorial candi-
date had taken and notifying him that

diately replied that he was ready FOR
a hearing any day this week, prefer
ably today. Mr. Tener's counsel in
their reply stated that as MI Tener
was on a speaking tour 1t was impos-
sible for him to appear at nearing

plotted as the president of the corpo-
ration. For this, the charges aver, he
agreed to accept $1,000 per year in

stock in the concern. The charges
characterize the National Public Util-
tiles Corporation as a fraudulent and
sWindling corporation" which Is sup

jected railroad in Oregon, known as the
