{letter from a Mr. Barron at Cross
Forks, to H. H. Montgomery, chief of
police at Bellefonte, and by him con-
veyed to Mr, Potter's home at Miles-
burg. Upon receipt of this informa-
tion Mr. Potter at once started for
Cross Forks to investigate and found
that his son, Geo, McCandlish Potter
disappeared some time between the 17
and 28th of May, i891, and had not
been heard of, and has not been heard
of since by any one. No one could
give him any information as to where
he bad gone, but he was told that a
man had been found about a mile
south of Olean, N. Y., in a clump of
woods, with his throat cut from ear to
ear, from right to left, and probably
murdered by some one unknown. He
found all of George's effects at his
boarding place, a Mr. Vaughn's, his
clothes being in his chest, wardrobe
and banging about the room, and his
letters from his correspondents, toget h-
er with a life insurance policy for
$1500.00, issued by the defendant com-
pany through its agent, J. F. Davis, at
Williamsport, Pa. Mr. Potter then re-
turned home, and again returned to
Cross Forks in the latter part of July
of the same year and went on to Olean
and some time in July, 1807 went to
Olean and had the body of the man,

Becretary Alger’s annual report
somewhat remarkable for ite
sions, It does not contain the “round |
robin’ sent from Santiago, nor does it |
contain “Teddy” Roosevelt's report, |
which “Teddy” told the “Investigat-|
ing Commission’ he hoped they would |
get and read, There are others who |
would be glad to read that report, pro-|
vided it could be had as it was written, |
and as it was received at the War De- |
partment. To read Alger’s report, one |
would suppose that there had been no
scandal connected with the conduct of
the war, and that everything had
moved along as smooth as silk, where.
as, every intelligent man in the U. 8,
knows to thecontrary. Some day the
truth may be written about the war,
but there are no signs that it will be
soon. Had a Democratic House been
elected, the outlook would have been
very different.
Boss Hanna has been giviog the
West Virginia Republicans some les-
gone on BSenator-grabbing, and a
scheme has been concocted that is ex
pected to result in the wiping outa
small Democratic majority in the leg
islature of that state and the election
of a Republican to succeed Benator
Faulkner. The Secretary of State of
West Virginia is to be the tool of the
grab. His part being to put the Re-
publican contestants for seats in the
House of Delegates on the regular roll,

ty of that body.
Senator Caffery, of La. is an anti
annexationist from away back. He
says of the Treaty of Peace: “I shall
vote squarely against the proposition
to annex the Philippines. The Peace
Commission had no busiuess to pro-
vide for their annexation. These is
Jands would be the most expensive
gift that one nation ever received from
another. They can never be a source
of strength, while they will always be
an element of dotnestic weakness and
subject to foreign attack in case of
hostilities with another nation.” Mr.
