A. P.
Asa ob the Ilome Ran
A good business might have been done at the Mer
chants' Hotel on Saturday morniug In the matter of
rickets np "Salt River," had somebody only known
tbe chance in time. The illustrious magnate who tvu
been undergoing the bleeding process (at his pocket,
however, nut In his sanguineous fluid), for. several
months past, to furnish pap to the voracious De
Ktcracy the Hon. Asa Packer has been sojourn
ing In retirement at that establishment for some
days, surrounded by a mixed crowd of broadcloth
and seediness. Champagne has been flowing in
abundant streams down throats long ptfl-ched by an
anwUling absunenco, and the drafts upon the wine
tllar have been only in.'wl'-w to those upon A. P.'s
bank account. Finding tha. ?1,e buttoning up his
pants pockets, when he llrst heard on Fri
day from the An he was P"' to be
the next Governor of the Siiite of
Pennsylvania, was making him as unpalatable ilVy
tne nangers-on or the party as a stale old "apee,"
Asa concluded to raatce quick tune Saturday morning
to Mauch Chunk, for fear he soon would not have any
more chunks In bis bloated corporation. But Asa
ant catch a train as well as he can a dividend, and
so Asa didn't start when he had exported. He was
aot a man. however, to be ouileted about by every
breeze of fortune, so tho mighty power of electric
Boagnetisin was called to his aid, aud after serious
cogitation and pen-nibbling it was found that the
magnitude of the occasion could not be expressed
within ten words.
8o, regardless of expense, with a shrewd squint to
ward a dead-head favor, the following momentous
words were flashed over hill and dale, as tho poet so
thrillingly describes with A. Packer seventy miles
aw ay :
1 have missed the 9 o'clock train ; I will start In
the l- P. M."
Perhaps If some enterprising news-boy will drop
np to the hotel at 8 o'clock this afternoon, he will
' Sad A. P. philosophically eating his dinner, und will

Til E DISHIHT ATTORNEYSHIP
Mr. Bheppard and Mr. IlAgert With
draw During the Pendency
of the Certiorari.
Mr. Gibbons Appointed to the Office
Pro Tern.
This morning a number of lawyers were In at
tendance upon the Court of tjnarfer Sessions. Judge
Ludlow on the bench, to learn what disposition was
to be for the present made of the oftloe of District
Attorney, knowing that a Writ of certiorari had been
taken hy Mr. Shepnard to move the record of his
case to the Supreme Court. Also a Jury were In at
tendance for the trial of- homicide eases, but no one
for some time appeared within the bar as the Com
monwealth's officer. At length, however, Mr. 8hcp
pivrd and Mr. Hajrgert entered and took their usual
places, and soon Mr, Oiblxms, who had been sent
for by Judge Jvidlow, came. Mr. Sheppard at once
Advanced to meet nim, and the two gentlemen
having shaken each other'B hand, proceeded together
to speak in private witli the Judge. After a few
moments of consultation, Mr. Sheppard arose aud
addressed the Court, as follows:
Mny it please your Honor, on Saturday lost a ma
jority of the Judges of this Court, acting tiMu certain
views of the law and of the facts expressed lu their
opinion, decided that tho present incumbent of the
olllce of District Attorney had not been dnly and
legally elected. To this decision a certiorari has
been I ilk en to the Supremo Court, and 1 desire to
avoid all unseemly discussion as to whether or not
this writ Is it supersedeas, or how far the learned
gentleman v, ho Is tnv coufl t.ant, or myself, Is legally
entitled to administer the duties of the oillce lu tne
meant line.
Such a dlsi nssion at this time could effect no good
object, but might l"ad to the delay and confusion of
the Commonwealth's business. Besides, it is an un
pleasant thing to iiiiHttni.-'toi' on olllce before a tribu
nal that has decided that I am not entitled to it,
Vnder tinse considerations, 1 have concluded that
it is my duty l withdraw from the oillce, and there
fore, with the profouiuieiii, respect for the Court, I
now decline to prosecute the pleas of the Common
wealth during the pendency r the writ of certiorari.
Juilge Ludlow Of course the District Attorney of
the county has a perfect right to adopt whatever
steps lie deems necessary In the present juncture of
allHirs. 1 entirely concur lu the propriety of his de
clining to pr seciite the pleas of the Com aonwealth
while the writ of certiorari Is pending, since the de
cision of the majority of this court, from which It Is
known I dissented, i'. Is h'glily proper that he
should abstain from pror.ecutlng the pleas during
the pendency of the writ, in tho Supreme Court; but
1 must seo that the public Interests do not sutler ia
the men nlime.
There is n large criminal cnlcndar, Including a
number of homicide cases, and there is one case of
special importance fixed for trial on Wednesday
next. It therefore devolves upon me, under the
power given by act of Assembly, to appoint a Dis
trict Attorney yro fern, to attend to tho public busi
ness in the interval between this and the decision of
the writ of certiorari. In making tills appointment I
act with regard to the public Interest alone.
If the gentleman whom 1 shall appoint receives a
fertillcute from the Governor upon the decision of
the Supreme Court, he will be called upon to con
tinue his management of the business of tho otlice;
should the decision of the writ reverse the Judgment
of this court, the present. District Attorney will be
called upon to resume the prosecution or the pleas.
Nothing remains for me but to appoint the gentle
man whom the court has adjudged to have becu
duly elected, and I therefore direct the lollowlng
order to be entered :
And now, to wit, October isth, lsf,3, the present
District Attorney declining to prosecute the pleas of
the Commonwealth, Chailes Gibbons, Esq., Is ap
pointed to the oillce of District Attorney pro tent.,
during the pendency of the writ of certiorari In the
Supreme Court.
Mr. Gibbons here arose nnd said: May It please
your Honor, the determination of my friend Mr.
Sheppard, just expressed, was quite unexpected to
luyseir, and I regret that he has felt it his duty to
retire from his present position at this
lime. I hoped he would have remained iu
the office until he had prosecuted some of the
Important cases now awaiting trial, and that in their
prosecution the Court and the community might
nave received the beuellt of his experience and skill.
Neither of us has regarded the contest that has just
ended as a personal mutter; lam sure I have not,
end I believe he has not. Under tlio decision of the
Court pronounced on Saturday, ami under the ap
pointment iuat made by your Honor, nothing re
mains to me but to accept that appointment. But of
course your Honor cau jien-elve that lu the present
condition of affairs it will bo impossible for me to
proceed with the casts fixed for trial this morning;
1 am unfamiliar with them, and feel obliged to ask
your Honor for an indulgence of a day or two, say
until Wednesday or Thursday.
Judge Ludlow The case fixed for Wednesday, Mr.
Gibbons, Is one that requires your attention, and
whether it will be tried then or not depends of course
upon you. ' 1 will adjourn until Wednesday.
Mr. Gibbons was qualillud to tho proper execution
Dt the duties of the office pro tern., aud the Court ad
eurned until Wednesday.
In this connection It la proper to state that npon
earning Mr. Sheppard s intention to withdraw,
Judgn Ludlow teudered the appointment pro tern, to
Mr. Hapert, who has served as Mr. Shcppard's as
sistant; bnt that gentleman had resolved to go out
with Mr. Sheifpard, and declined the proffered ap
pointment. .Mr. Gibbons also requested Mr. Uogcrt
to remain with him, at least nnsil he should become
acquainted with the state of tne business, and get it
properly under way ; but this also Mr. Hagert, ex
pressing his regret at being uuable to .accommolate
Mr. vilbboiis, declined tojao.
CITY COUNCILS.
A special meeting of theso bodies was held this
morning, the object being to approve the sureties of
the city ofllixi's.
Common .Branch.
This Chamber was called to order at 10-30 o'clock,
the President in the chair.
The Clerk then read the call for the special meet
ing, the object lieing "for general business."
The President then submitted communications:
One from S. P. Hancock, City Controller, submit
ting the following gentlemen as sureties, K. J. Ken
ney and David Jones.
One from R. Pcltz, Tax Receiver, submitting Hugh
Gamble, John II. Jones, ami Samuel Miller as sure
ties. One front T. J. Worrell, City Solicitor, submitting
MesBr. Benjumin Fletcher, Joseph Ferguson, and
Thomas K. Finletter as sureties.
Resolutions opproving these sureties were offered
and referred to the Comuii'tee on Finance.
Mr. II. llulm moved that when this Chamber ad
journ It be until 11-30 A. M.
Mr. lletnell desired to know tho object.
Mr. Hulin stated that those offices were without
a head, and It necessit.ited immediate action on the
part of Councils, in order that the interests of the
city might be protected.
Mr. Hetzell held that this was undue and hasty
action, as the busiuess could be as well transacted
on a regular as well as ut a special meeting. He
pronounced tha decision of the court on Saturday
last us one emanating from pattlsnn Judges, who
hail really arrogated to themselves the power which
was vested in the people, It was a power of usur
tmiion. which lie could not function.
The motiou of Mr. llulm vas agreed to by a vote
of l to 4.
Major Ale.TftVKler McOnen, City Commissioner,
Miimiiitcd as his sureties Messrs. Joseph C. Titter
lnary and John C. THioriiniry. This was also ro
leni'd to the Committee on Finance.
The chamber then adjourned until half-past It
o'clock. The Committee on Finance then met In tho
coieniittec-rooin and tool; uctlon-upon the sureties
clloied.
At the hour named the Chamber reassembled.
Mr. Shoemaker, Chainiu'i of tho Committee on
Finance, reported an ordinance approving the sure
ties of Thomas J. Worrell, City Solicitor elect.
Agreed to.
Also, on ordinance approving the sureties of
Samuel 1. Hancock, City Controller elect; Richard
Pel'.z, Receiver of Taxes elect; nnd Alexander
Mi Cuen, City Commissioner elect.
on the passage of tho latter, the yens nnd nays
were called, result iiig iu 01 yeas to 2 nays. So the
onliiiftiice was agreed to. Adjourned.
SifU'Ct liiancb.
On the adjournment or Common Council, the
Select 111 audi was tailed to order by President
Stokley.
Tho Clerk of Common Council was announced,
and having slated that Mint chamber had agreed to
the above ordinances upprovlng sureties,
Mr. King moved to reii-r them to the Committee
on Finance. In support of this lie said Hint this was
hasty action. The Comiultteo on Finance should
have more fully iuvcs'lgaieJ the matter. As for the
securities aud Die men named, they might be suffi
cient, but ho for omi was willing to investigate the
subject thoroughly and properly. This hasty action
was unprecedented.
Ho hoped tho Select council would not conde
scend to do what tic! own has done, In the political
trli kery w tilth liad ju.-t n suited iu forcing out of
position inei who had been the choice or tho people.
All men w ere not corrupt. There were members of

court. Helen that they would not .inllict such A
wrong npou the comiuuu.ty.
j;e iij. .'lived i n.it tne ciuHi? I or this nosty action
was to avoid n octlon til C'enrf. Tint Ihrre was a
power behind HmnclM, and that WM the Mayor, fn
the care of John Given Mayor Henry exercised the
power, and he did not believe that Mayor Fox would
Join the Conrt in th trmkery which they nl prac
tised upoD the community.
Mr. Smith denied that this action was political in
its nature. A number of gentlemen had been kept
out of positions to which they had been slecto! for
nearly a y ar, and these men were anxious to get
pnfisesBlon of that which properly belonged to them.
The cases of Meiioy and Given were widely dlfforen'.
In the case of the former, the Court has decided
that he was not elected, while In the ease of the
latter, a notice of contest had been Died, and on that
Mayor Henry acted. The speaker was astonished
that Mr. King would rise in his place and retard the
transaction of business for which there existed an
actual necessity.
Mr. Rmg complained that the time of the meeting
of the Finance Commltteo was at an irregular time,
and as such he had not had an opportunity of
examining the searches, etc,
Mr. FranolscuB replied that Mr. King had had the
same notice as heard other members of the com
mittee, who at meeting had all searches aud
everything that was act ually necessary for an exami
nation pf the snretk'S before them.
Mr. Dufty had but one duty to perform, and that
was to h.iw in submission to the decree of the
Court, who had pronounced the gentlemen named
as legally elected, and though he had his doubts M
to the honesty ami histness of their election, he
wonld vote for the approval of the sureties which
had liecn passed upon by the Committee on Finance.
The motion to refer was voted down, and the reso
lutions as they came from Common Council were
agreed to. Adjourned.

On Thursday next a convention of railroad clerks
for the formation of a life insurance company will
be held at the Washington Hotel, Chesnut street,

prominent, railway companies in this country will lie
represented. If properly conducted, there is not a
more certain safeguard imaginable for t he protection
of the families of those composing such nn associa

Is very largo, and If even but a small percentage of
them join the new organization, a large society may
be formed.
