at Mr. Dorscy's residence accompanied
by a friend, Mr. George F. Hrodt, and
they were admitted at once by Mr. Dor

postal telegraph system, conducted tho

of tho compound wire in use, compos

his listeners in tho Now York ofiico
applauded him so heartily that ho said
they wero jarring down tho plastering

The Delancy Investigation.
Tho ooininittco appointed by tho
slate senate to Investigate tho charges
ngainst stnto librarian Dclnney, havo
lind several sessions and nenru a num
ber of witnesses. Among them was
Sol. Foster Jr' who wrote some of tho
m tides about Delaney's doing which

was Samuel Adam?, then a carpet
dealer on Third stieet Hnrrisburg.
il told me.' sa d I'ostcr, "that
there had been a syndicate operating in
Hnrrisburg for somo time, lie was in
it, ho said, and got His 'divvy out ot
warrants given lor goods mat were
never supplied. Among other things
I was tola by Adams that a ceitain
bill for $199,22 llled In tho Auditor
General's Office was for articles notono
of which had never been supplied. 1
copied that bill and published it. Sub
scipiently Adams explained to mo tho
modus operandi ot tnu syndicate, no
said it was high timo to publish tho
matter and if ho was to co down oth
ers should go with him. Ho seemed
very nnxioim to tell mo every tiling.
Adams and his brother-in-law, Gray,
had furnished a great deal of goods to
the State. Ho said that it was a com
mon thing for persons In tho ling to
mako out a bill for four times the
true amount and get tho money for it.
IIo said ho had been treated very bad
ly by some of theso people and as they
went back on him bed bo damned if
he wouldn't go back on them. Adams
centred his attack on Delaney, without
whoso certificate, ho said, tno bills
could not have got through. I have
known Adams for live years. 1 beliovo
that what he said was trno or I would
not havo published his allegations.
1
reasoned that Adams , was tho most
likely man to know nny crookedness
that mignt navo been in mis uusmess.
On tno following dny tno committee
was called together to hear what Sam
uel Adams had to say.
"I havo no knowledge of Delaney's
official acts," ho declared. "When 1
was interviewed by Air. l osier 1 felt
aggrieved and sore nt Delaney, because
I was under tho impression that ho
was tho causo of my not getting the
contract in 1881. I made some re
marks to Mr. Foster which, under or
dinary circumstances, I piobably would
not havo expressed. "I 'swelled his
head moro than I ought to.
"I wouldn't co on tho stand and
swear to anything that I told Mr. Fos

any dealings with Delaney whatever.

that I had a divvy in it ; at least I don't
recollect so. I don't remember telling
Foster that Delaney certified to bill of
goods that wcie never delivered. Fos
ter pumped mo so much that I don't
remember all I said.
Thomas M. Jones, one of the best
known iournalists in Ilarrisburg, testi
fied that shortly after tho contract of
1881 was awarded ho was hailed in the
street bv Adams and, although tho
ioiirnalist was in a hurry to go on, Ad
ams insisted upon speaking to him
about Delaney. "IIo said," continued
Mr. Jones, "that if half were told about
things up there people would open
their eves. He told mo ot one bill ccr
tificd to by Mr. Delaney and amount
ing to over $1,000, not an nrticlo of
which had ever been furnished. Ho
charged that Mr. Delaney had told Mr.
Chellis the amount of Mr. Adam's bid
and consequently Mr. Chellis underbid
him. Subsequently Mr. Adams spoko

He did not deny it, but said that it
would soon blow over.''
Charles E. St. John, of Wilkesbarre,
who was night watchman at tho Exec
utivo office during Governor Ilovt's

1880 ho saw seven Backs lull of the
cloth-bound Agricultural Reports of
1879 and mno boxes 01 tho pamphlets
containing United States statutes, tacit
box holding two hundred and fifty or
three hundred pounds, wheeled away

WIGGINS' STORM.
Last September, K. Stono "Wiggins
of Canada, predicted that a ternblo
tornado would visit this country in
March, between the 9th nnd 12th, and
advised all vessols to seek saw harbors
at that tlmo. In nccordnnco with this

However, Wiggins Is happy, and claims
that ho is vindicated, mid his prophecy
fulfilled. Other peoplo look upon his
weather predictions as more nonsense,
nnd though by moro coincidence, there
was a storm on March 11 lb, there was
nothing remarkable about it. If ho had
predicted a snow storm in July, and it
liad come, then indeed might his pro
