RELIGION CUT QUITE
A FIGURE IN RESULT
Both the Catholics and Methodists
Voted Against Buchanan in
Massachusetts.
Especial to The Herald-Rspublican.)


Washington. d. c.. March 26.--It Is
shown by authentic reports from the
Fourteenth Massachusetts, congressional
district that the result of the special
election in that district this week was not
of the political significance that has been
attributed TO 1t.
A gentleman who lives in the district
and Is familiar with the conditions exist
ing there was in Washington today and
said
1T is entirely wrong to credit the
election of FOss as q great Democratic
victory It was not such. Politics had
very little TO do with the result. for re-
ligiOn entered into the canvass more
than political issues did. Buchanan, the
Republican candidate, had nc chance
whatever to win. He had been a radical
anti-Catholic and for some reason the
members Of that church would not vote
for him. Personally / am Republican, but
am also a Catholic, and the fact that
Buchanan was an A. p. A. and an active
opponent of our church was enough cause
for me to vote against him The
Methodists were also stirred up
against him, and SO were the
members OF other denominations.
Aside from all this there were other To-
cal Issues involved and consequently It is
wrong to attach any political significance

One Hour of the Shooting,
COMMEMORATIVE EVIDENCE

GEORGE w. FASSELL, a
~ grocer, was shot dead
through the heart when three
masked bandits entered his
store at $40 East Fourth South
street at 9:15 o'clock last
night, and precisely one hour
later the three suspects, be-
lieved to be the holdups, were
arrested at the Angelus room
ing house, 81 East Fourth
South street, over a mile away.
The sum of the outlawry
was one mans life and about
S25 of his money, taken from
the cash register.
James Hayes, rs years old,
one of the bandits. was posi-
lively identified by A. T. ia
cobson, the only witness of the
murder, as the man who fired
the fatal shot.
The other two, who have
been identified at the city jail
by jacobson and others, gave
their names as George K. Will
son and Harry Thorne.
Bert Brown, thought to be
q member Of the gang, but who
was not at the Fassell store
when the shooting and robbery
occurred, was also arrested at
the Angeles rooming house.
BY an odd twist of provi-
dence, the mask fell from
Hayes face as he fired at Fas-
sell, and jacobson, who stood
close by with his arms in the
air, told the police:

facel"

Former Governor W. A. Stone, called
on District Attorney Blakeley today
Three hours later, when they emerged
from his office, BIakeley would give
out no definite statement. The dis

announced that Stewart held the key
to some Of the "big ones" Implicated
in the graft conspiracy. If Stewart
has made clean breast of it, indict-
ments against certain bankers are as
sured. it is thought.
The grand jury yesterday in it's pre-
sentiment said Stewart was the man
who was paid $4,000 in the Hotel I'm
