LANCASTER DAILY INTELLIGENCER MONDAY MAY 16, 1881
a:
THE RADICAL. KOOSTERS.
Lunt Mendav or a Bis Campaign.
Te-day being the last Monday of the het
campaign for the Republican nominations
te the important county offices filled this
fall, the excitement of the canvass culmi
nates in Lancaster, and where the candi
dates, political bosses and bummers most
de congregate all has been excitement and
bustle, which have net abated at the hour
when the Intelligences gees te press.
Very early this morning it might have
been observed that the eity bummers and
heelers were gathering in knots in the
vicinity of the court house, organizing in
the name of some bogus or bona fide
scheme, te levy tell en the aspirants for
their votes, and getting their pass books
and tickets ready for the onset. On every
train and by vehicle from every section el
the county the efiicc-hunters and the best
workers poured in. Around the hotels
there was quite a stir, and nearly
every candidate was en hand some of
these who have been left by the combina
tions trying te discover hew they could dis
pose of and trade off what strength re
maiued te them, ami ethers begging their
friends te stand firm, se that they may
gain political strength by the best possible
show in the returns. It is notable, how
ever, that no candidate who is en neither
set-up cherishes any lingering hope of
election. 'Squire Gridcr is indeed the
only one of considerable strength and just
hew his vote will affect the chances of his
competitors is problematical. It is te be
observed that Geed's friends have a fit of
nervousness lest Grider draw oil" their
strength.
The headquarters of the politicians were
at Bess Sensenig's Castle en the alley or
the Leepard's hindquarters, and Ress .Mc
Mellen's Exchange, but Sammy Graffs
Snapper llex and all its environs
en Barbary Coast were crowded
with a hungry aud thirsty crowd. At
Deichler's, J. W. Jehnsen, Lew Ilai-tman,
Jehn D. Skiles and some ethers of their
faction were explaining the situation te
their fellows, and Levi buttonholed the
boys in the back room. Here, as at
Graffs and McMcllen's, the country
roosters were arm in arm with the city
bummers and net a bit less demoralized,
the negre politicians were numerous, ra
pacious and loud-mouthed. The "small
fry " were generally very mysterious and.
kuewing that when the machine works un
easily tlie cuginccr pours in the grease,
they were very reticent as te hew it was
going in their districts and answered
that it was very uncertain, " it all depends
upon what is done te day." At the Ex
change the managers were closeted " far
from the madding crowd " and the scrutiny
with which visitors were admitted te the
councils of the saints bespoke a close and
resolute organization.
There is a very considerable decree of
confidence manifested as yet en all sides,
but it is plainly te be seeu that as election
day comes nearer the nervousness of the
politicians increases. The elements which
make up cither faction new are se inco
herent that they fear treachery from each
ether, and against that no c limitation can
be made. McMclIen is accused of being
for Umble se intensely as te neglect
Krcady ; ether Examiner people are ac
cused of a leaning away from Spurrier and
toward Keeser, though, en the ether hand,
in this city and elsewhere Spinner is
credited with decisive inroads into Lhc
Xem Era party's sources of strength.
Krcady is accused of stinginess by some
of the Examiner gang and they threaten te
carve him. Harry Itrcncman is suspected
of weakening in fealty te Uurklwdder, of
the New Era set up.
The events of the past week and the best
information we could gather te-day is that
the fight between High and Krcady is get
ting closer than the friends of High had
anticipated and a stiff contest is looked
for. Skiles seems te be the most hopeful
of the Xcw Era' candidates and most
dreaded by the ether side. Frilly's
friends are net taking his stock at par.
While lv ready is expected te carry the
town Skilcs's friends beast of crossing the
city line by eOO majority or mere.
In the Earls the chief contest is for
sheriff, prothenotary, register and clerk
of quarter sessions. High is solid down
there ; Skiles has the better of it ; Umblc
will carry tho.se districts, and E-.iby will
give Settley a wrestle.
Keep your eye en that man limbic. He
has forged te the front like a race horse,
and is one of the strongest elements in
the Examiner ticket. McMclIen has put
his stake en that card aud it is te win, even
if somebody else en the same side has te
be left te accomplish it. Make a note of
that tee.
Burkhelder and Spurrier have been
making active and effectual canvasses, aud
each has pulled np a geed deal, if net
shifted the chances from their opponent"'
te their own favor. Their respective sides
claim them among the strongest men in
their combinations. The Xcie Era people
will bet at odds en Burkhelder. Al
Smith advises his friends te net give his
enemies money te spend against him, but
declares that he is safe.
The treasurer fight is an interesting
though a subordinate one and seems te
depend largely en the size of 'Squire Gli
der's vote. Grissinger, it is everybody's
secret, is in better shape than usual, with-
Dr. Compteu feels under special ebliga- !
tiens te Majer Griest, his former close
friend, for the Inquirer1 s boost of Umble,
without a word for Compten. He and
Tebe Hcrshcy sec new what ought te
have been done, viz : a people's ticket or
ganized te beat both rings.
There will be a fight iu the Third ward,
this city, te snatch it from McMclIen ; in
the Ninth even Miles may net get away
with Krcady.
Jake Strinc and Harry Hippcy haven't
made up their minds yet. They prefer te
drop en the soft side of the fence. They
may yet sce light for Krcady.
All signs point te some startling develop
ments during the week, beginning with an
eipeseia te-night's Era of the doings of a
spy-artist, waudcring through the Exami
ner camp iu search of subjects for a cari
cature and of information for the Sen
scnig people.

It is complained of this ticket that of
the eleven candidates for leading offices
six are from Lancaster city. " All en ac
count of Eliza."
The JEcaucr-Mcntzer-McMellen party
have net issued a short ticket and de net
propose te. Their policy has becu all along
te concentrate the light en the upper part
of the ticket, and whether this cowardice
is au element of strength or weakness they
will centiuue in it, trading off everything
below director of the peer, if necessary, te
make a point for somebody above
that. Hence the tickets which
they mark differ somewhat at
the bottom. Seme of them are even
trading with Reeser. Fer county commis
sioner they will vote generally for Myers,
and for the ether place trade en Sammy,
Cellins, Bushong aud even Jehnsen. Fer

scholarship or class standing, is awarded te
C. B. Heller, Danville, Pa.
The senior test ended en Thursday

all the inembcis passing ; the average test
grade for the class was 87 3-10. The
average grade for this entire term of four
years of the honor men is as fellows : Mr.
'Kemp; 95 ; Mr. Busher, 01 :U0 ; Mr. Rei
tcr, 90 -1-10 ; Mr. Elliet, 90.
The senior vacation began en Friday
last., the Kith, and will continue until the
Kith of June, commencement day. The
class numbers nineteen, aud included
during the four year course thirty-four
members, of whom the ethers dreppsd
off at intervals'. The graduating orations
must be handed te the faculty ten days
before commencement day. Many of the
seniors have gene home te spend their va
cation and prepare their orations.
Dr. Apple, president of the college,
will give the senior class a reception at his
house en the campus some evening during
commencement week.
Of the graduating class nine will be
ministers, seven lawyers, two doctors and
one journalist.
Mr. Elliet, third honor man, will make
application for admission into the senior
class of Harvard university next year.
The alumni oration will be delivered en
the campus in the afternoon, after the
aluiuiii dinner instead of iu the evening,
as in previous vcars. J
'81 had a supper aud senior pwTiiien at
! Spaeth's en Friday eveniug, the leth, after
the Gecthcan anniversary exercises noticed
at length in our Saturday's issue.
The present graduating class is com
posed of eleven Gecthcans, four Diaguo Diague
thiausand four no-society men.
i Five fraternities arc represented at the
' rcit,tt MniAinr wlitffi m ei,.ini'i ;l?i 1i-
vided as follews: Seven are Chi Phis,

Tan Deltas, two arc Phi Kappa Sigmas,
one is a Phi Psi,and live are non-fraternity
men.
The Diagnethiau literary society will
celebrate its forty-sixth anniveisary at
the opera house next Friday evening.
There is trouble at the college ever the
preposition te held the commencement
exercises at the opera house. The seniors
have gene te the expense of having invita
tions engraved by Tillany of New Yerk,
which are said te be the most stylish and
hiuh-tened ever get up by any gradual
ing class at Franklin & Marshall. They
have been engraved with "Fulton Opera
Heuse, " and the class have engaged the
opera house from Mr. Yecker. The faculty
are reported te be against the establish
ment of a precedent that is calculated te
take the chief interest of the commence
ment exercises away from the campus and
the college buildings ; en the ether hand
it is argued that the opera house possesses
advantages ever the college chapel, where
the orations have been delivered hereto
fore, being se much larger aud having
better accommodations, and being besides
situated in the central part of the city and
in consequence mere convenient for the
people of the city. Divergent views of the
question arc taken by members of the
beard of trustees and by the alumni,
while the class with a single exception are
"solid" for the opera house. Hew the
affair will terminate is a matter of con-
jeetnrc.

A SENSATION.
TTVO NETV YORK SENATORS RESIGN.
An Appeal te Their Constituents.
"Washington, May 10.
In the Senate the vice president has laid
before the Senate the following communi cemmuni communi
tien. " "Washington, May 16. Sir : "Will you
please announce te the Senate that my
resignation as senator of the United States
from the state of New Yerk has been for
warded te the governor of that state? I
have the honor te be with great respect
your obedient servant.
"ROSCOE CONKLINO."
Piatt fellows Mult.
This communication was received with
great sensation, which was heightened
When the vice president laid the follewiug
before tlia Senate :
"Senate CuAMBEB,3IaylG. Sir: I have
forwarded te the governor of the state of
Xcw Yerk my resignation as senator of
the United States from the state of New
Yerk. "Will you please announce the fact
te the Senate. With great respect your
obedient servant. T. C. Platt."
A hum of astonishment followed the
reading of the communications.
Ir. Hill suggested (sole voce) that this
would be a geed time te elect officers of
the Senate.
The Proceedings.
After some routine business Mr. Dawns
moved te go into executive session.
Mr. Cockrell I thought you wanted te
consider the ether resolutions. -
Mr. Dawes I had no idea but that the
senator would like te go en with it ; it is
iu accordance with the disposition which
he lias sueau from the beginning.
Mr. Hill (Ga.) The senator said
that
the republic would be subverted
if the
resolution was net acted upon.
Mr. Dawes But the senator would
ijever be convinced until he happened te
have a majority.
31r. Hill Oh ! we went insist upon hav
ing it considered.
Mr. Dawes An accident is an eye open
er te the senator.
Mr. Hill turned around audsuggestcd'te
Mr. Davis, (Ills.), that there was nothing
te prevent the Senate from adjourning
this week sine die.
The Senate then at 12:30 went into
executive session aud at 1:40 adjourned
until te-morrow.
Soen after the adjournment of the Sen
ate this p. m. the Republican senators
went into caucus for the purpose, it is uu
derstoed, of determining what course of
action shall be pursued iu regard te
the Robertsen case aud ether contested
nominations, and also te consider tbe sub
ject of adjournment.
It is generally believed that the nomina
tion of Judge Robertsen will be brought
before the Senate for final action during
the next few days aud that the Seuatc will
adjourn, sine die towards the close of the
week.
Neither Mr. Conkling nor Mr. Piatt has
been at tlie capital te-day and in absence
of any authoritative explanation from
them the motives and meaning of their
resignations arc left subject te mere spec
ulation an J conjecture.
CONKL1NCS COUP.
What is Thought of the Kesigufitien?.
Washington, May 1C. When the news
of the resignations f Senators Conkling
and Flatt reached the treasury de
partment te-day great excitement en
sued, and officials and subordinates alike
were seen gathered iu groups throughout
the bulldiug discussing the situation and
its probable effect. The theory which has
been advanced that the senators who re
signed are quite confident of being re
turned by the New Yerk Legislature,
is very generally accepted, but in
some quarters it is maintained
that en account of the Legislature having
heretofore endersd the nomination of
Robertsen te be collector of the pert of
New Yerk, it cannot consistently endorse
the action of the two senators in opposing
it. This course, however, it is conceded
by prominent Republicans can easily be
brought about.
All sorts of rumors are atleat regarding
ether resignations which are te fellow,
Vice Vrcsident Arthur, Attorney General
MacVcagh and Postmaster General James
being among these mentioned in this con
nection. There is, however, no apparent
foundation for the reports.
Secretary Windem called at the execu
tive mansion shortly after 1 o'clock and has
been there since, president Garfield was
apprised of the contemplated resignations
this morning and remarked te a treasuiy
official shot tly before 12 o'clock that he
expected the news te arrive momentarily.
The resignation of the senators is the
topic of conversation at the hotels and
ether public places, and large greurs of
men may be seen ou the street corners d is
cussing the affair iu an excited manner.
Cuwhldcd the Girl.
Cininnati, May 10. A special from
Nekanus III., says : " Henry Hall, pre
prieter of the Eureka hetchlast night pub
licly cowhided his sister whom lie met
walking with a young man te whom he
objected te her associating with. The
young woman was 18 years old."
WEATIIKK INDICATIONS.
Washington, May 10. Fer the Middle
Atlantic states, fair weather in the inter
ior and local rains en the coast, various
winds, mostly from N. E. te N. W.,
