But theProMilities Are He Won't Get the Necessary Majority. HIS POPDLAKITr A GREAT FACTOE. Colonel Korth Glres a Great Ball That Costs Thousands of rounds. Boulanger is more than ever the center of interest in things political in Paris. The 27th of January is the date on which he ex pects the Department of the Seine to elect him, tut though he has as yet no opponent, it isn't now thought that he can get the nec essary majority of all the votes that will be cast His vote will be very large, though. Colonel North, the "Xitrate King," gave a ball in London that cost 8,000. BT CABLE TO THE DISrATCU.l Paeis, January 5. Copyright. In Paris everything political is circulating around Boulanger, and more so than ever. The election for the department of the Seine is fixed for the 27th of January, and as the 'date approaches the Boulangerists become more confident and the Republican forces more panicky. Boulanger is the only can didate in the field up to date. Yesterday morning while the other parties were still looking ior a champion powerful enough to fight the General, I saw the walls plas tered with big flaming invitations to the Parisians to vote for Boulanpen Practically Boulanger simply said" ''Vote for me and be happy," but his address, which he, of course, did not write himself, said the thing very cleverly. All kinds of excited Frenchmen were grouped about the posters in the early morn ing,and there was some word written there to appeal to almost everyone. In tone it is con ciliatory humble and imploring. "What have I done," rfays the brave General, plaintively, "and yet look how they treat me." The wisdom back of the political ad venturer's prospective throne is shown in this address, which, having for its object the gathering in of all the voles of Paris.ap- Seals to the entire population, not to the oulangenst section alone, as was done in some former sheets of political fly-paper spread out for voters. BOULAXGEE MAT KOT BE ELECTED. The importance of the result of the com ing election is due to the fact that it is not alone a particular part of Paris which the candidate is to represent that will be. called upon to vote for him, but the entire city, as though "eery inhabitant of Pittsburg had a chance to vote for or against every Congress man sent to "Washington. After stud ing the matter carefully I reach the conclusion that Bonlanger ill not be elected, but that the will show proDf of such a large following lin Paris as will frighten the men in power 'more than ever. It is doubtful if at the first balloting any one will be elected, as the law requires an absolute majority of the voters. The Gov ernment party will have their candidate, who, with his natural supporters alone.-will sot win. There will be numerous labor and socialistic candidates, and Baulangcr, with his followers and a probably heavy though secret support from the Royalists and Im perialists, who have practically abandoned the idea of putting up men of their own. BOUKD TO GET A BIO VOTE. This plan of the Royalists to undermine the republic by helping Boulanger, trusting to luck to get rid of him afterward, will give the adventurer a heavy vote perhaps the heaviest of all on the first casting of the ballots; but if he fails, as he prolably will, to secure an absolute majority, there is little doubt that the Socialistic voters, who are uncompromisingly hostile to Boulanger, will all unite on an anti-Boulangerist can didate, and so defeat the General. In any case, the moral effect of Iloulanger's partial success will be very great, as he will be able to deny having had any Bor.il is t assistance, the latter pretending to abstain, and will accuse the Government of having beaten him only with the aid of the Revolutionary and Socialist panic. On this trip to Paris I heard a fresh an swer to the frequently put question: "Why Rochefort, a professional people's friend, if ever there was one, should have thrown in his fortunes with a man whose ambition for a dictatorship is most clearlv proved by his repeated denials of it." The explanation given was simply that Rochefort, being a hard liver, gambler, and horse-betting man, looked to the triumphant Boulanger to free 'him from his debts and snpply him with 'the millions that he can liope'to get from the people. This may be verv unjust to Rochefort, but it is one of the mildest things sow said of him by those with whom he formerly worked and associated. CHICAGO'S BOODLERS. The Grand Jury Makes a Tonr of Invcitlga- lion A Tinge of Humor Attached to Tbelr Recommendations. Chicago, January 5. The December grand jury submitted its final report to Judge Jamieson this afternoon. The jury during its term of service were on the usual tour of inspection through different county institutions. According to its report, it found the city morgue to be a "damp, dirty, foul-smelling cellar, under the dead house of the county hospital. Its use for the pur poses of a morgue should be discontinued as loon as possible." It has been the custom to cut the names of the builders, contractors and members of the County Board in the corner stones of public edifices whtn built, and some of these have subsequently been found guilty of malfeasance in office! Referring to this fact, the report says: The jury also found the names of well known thieves, boodlers and "squealers" staring them in the face at each of the county institutions visited. If it is a credit to the "boodler" and thief, the names of the men now in the State's prison, and the fel lows -who saved themselves by betrayal of comrades in crime, should be permitted to remain on the marble slabs of the buildings in the county, but not otherwise. We therefore recommend that the names of the boodlers, commissioners, contractors and "squealers" be erased from all of the differ ent institutions of the county, or that the word "boodler" be cut into the marblffin the same kind of letters. The jury also visited the jail in the town hall in the town oTLake and found its con dition even worse than that of the morgue. ON BLINKEY'S BOOTY.

Colonel North Opens the Eye! of the British Aristocracy Immense Expenditure ol Money The Talk of London Tonn. Lokdok, January 5. A very remark able ball was given at the Hotel Metropolo last night. It was not only remarkable in size and lavish expenditure, the cost being 8,000, but it furthermore punctuated strongly the gradual rise of finance in En gland over the old aristocracy. it was given ny uoionei jonn . jNortn, familiarly known as the Nitrate Eing. Colonel North is a Yorkshire boy who went out to South America some 20 rears ago. and saw an opportunity. To-day he is the most talked-of man in England. He is worth from 540,000,000 to 60,000,000, and lately has been using bis knowledge of the stock market to better the fortunes of cer tain well-known people. Lord Bandolph Churchill was the first to benefit from Col onel North's power, and his profits are va riously estimated in tens of thousands. Lord Randolph arranged a dinner lately, at which Colonel North met the Princess of "Wales and the result is that Wales' was given 2,000 shares in a late allottment ot sew stock, which now stands at 7, making. 70,000 for the heir apparent. As the Prince has lately been selling off the stock at Sandringham on an economical plan, the money is, perhaps timely. These circum stances and the extent to which various members of the aristocracy have piofited lately in stock ventures, lent unusual inter est to the ball. The Colonel, whose delight it is to beJav Jsh, hired everything in the Hotel Hetropole that was vacant. The White Hall suite of ballrooms, reception rooms, etc., was added to by 100 bedrooms for countrv guests. There were 1,400 invitations and 1,400 guests, ranging in the social scale from the old aristocracy to popular theatrical people. It was mixed to the last degree, but, being a fancy dress ball, all social lines were lost Lord and Lady Bandolph Churchill ruhd the occasion, and Arthur Roberts, a fjkh tesque actor of the Avenue Theater, made the fun. The whole first floor of the hotel was used, and the refreshment rooms before supper Tied with the grand salon itself. Cham pagne flowed like spring water. All the waiters and hotel emploves were in fancy drus at Colonel North's expense, and .nothing so strange in attendance and lavish outlay has been teen in London since a sim ilar ball given bv Lord Rothschild. It was geneially expected that the Prince of Wales would be there. He did not come, however, and the general opinion was that he it ungrateful. His absence made little difference in the fun, however, and theos tumes, rooms and accessories simply beg cared description.

"Elite" Some of the shrewdest detectives of the country have never been able to recover or even locate the thousands of dollars' worth of furs stolen by "Blinkey" Morgan and his gang at Cleveland. Out of this robbery grew the rescue of McMunn at Ravenna and the murder of Detective Hulligan, the killing of ShcriffLynch, of Alpena, Mich., and recently the death on the scaffold of Morgan. It has remained for The Dis patch to tell, on unquestioned authority, what disposition was made of the furs and many interesting details of the series of crimes which ended in Morgan's death, in cluding the story of how the fur robbery was originally planned, 10 years ago, by noted criminals, some of whom are now dead. A noted New York crook, whom a Dis patch reporter once befriended, called to see the latter while on his way "West yester day. His name has frequently been con nected with Morgan's. He consented, since his story can now do his friends no harm, to give the heretofore unpublished details of the affair and of "Blinkey" Morgan's life, which read like a page from one of Victor Hugo's novels. He said: "On the night the robbery of Rudy & Benedict's fur store, Superior street, Cleve land, was committed by 'Blinkey' Morgan and his mob, the gang, with its booty, boarded a Cleveland and Pittsburg train at Newberg, O., and came to Pittsburg, secret ing themselves in a room in Allegheny. Several days before a noted New York 'fence,' who resides within three doors of a police station, was wired to meet Morgan's gang at Pittsburg on the day after the rob bery. He brought with him a trunk, iden tical with that in which the furs were packed, containing Morgan's clothing, which had been sent the 'fence' ior that purpose. arriving ix rrrTSBURO, he registered at the Seventh Avenue Hotel, at occe visited the room in Alle gheny, inspected the furs and affixed the nrice he would n&v for them. Then he re turned to the hotel and had his trunks sent to the depot. "McMunn, id the meantime, had sent the trunk, containing the furs, to the depot also. McMunn purchased a ticket fo, and checked the trunk to, Alpena, Mich. The 'fence' had also purchased a ticket, and checked his trunk to New York. He watched the trunks until they were placed on the baggage cars of their respec tive trains, which left the depot at almost the same minute. Just before hc Neig York train pulled out, the baggage master was handed a f-5 note and a check for his trunk by the 'fence,' who said he had j ust received ateiegram wnicnmaoe itim-t perative to remain over another day. Of course, the baggase master dumped the trunk out on the platform. The other trunk was secured by the same method. The trunks were quickly exchanged, and theone containing the furs went to New York with the 'fence,' and the other went on to Michi gan, in charge of 'Blinkey'Morgan, to whom McMunn had transferred his ticket and check, McMunn le turned to his room, and was captured that afternoon. "A message by wire stopped Morgan en route and brought him back to Pittsburg, when he concocted the soheme to rescue McMunn at Ravenna, in which Detective Hulligan was killed. McMunn, as every one knows, was never captured, and is now in Australia. "Jimmy Robinson, of Allegheny, who was arrested and once convicted ot complicity in the rescue, was granted a new trial and then released. Coughlin was once convicted and released, and Morgan was the only man executed for the crime. If he had not been he would certainly have been 'scragged' or hung for the killing of Sheriff Lynch at Alpena, where Morgan was captured. NELL GOT THE FUNDS. "The money for the furs was sent to Nell Lowry, of Cleveland, and by her used in a fruitless endeavor to save Morgan's neck. "The Cleveland fur robbery was originally planned ten years ago, by three men, two natives of Cleveland, and the other of Massachusetts, 'Pat' Kelly, a well-known saloon Keeper, of Cleveland; George Foster, better known as 'The Duke of Parma,' and 'No6ey' Gleason, an Eastern crook. Each of these men is either in prison or dead. The job fell through because Foster prom ised his mistress a sealskin sacque. This alarmed the rest of the gang, who aban doned the robbery, which Morgan consum mated ten years later. 'Nosey' Gleason'is doing eight years' time ior a dia mond robbery at Boston. George Fos ter did a job of strong arm work, holding up a man on the hotel steps at Kocky River, a Cleveland summer re sort, in 1883, and got eight years at the Ohio Penitentiary. He escaped in a few months and, returning, was shot and killed in 'Billy' Horst's saloon on Ontario street, Cleveland, by Officer Corner while resist ing arrest. Corner's house was afterwards blown up by dynamite, in retaliation for the shooting ot Foster. Pat Kelly, the originator of the fur job, received wounds which eventually killed him, while resist ing a sheriff's posse after a bank robbery in k.entncKy. .morgan was witn mm in tnis, and before he died Kelly communicated to Morgan the old plan to rob the Cleveland lur store. " ' "This bank robbery was in 1880 in a little town on the Kentucky side df the Ohio river, about 20 miles below Portsmouth, O., and was done by "Blinkey" Morgan and Pat Kelly along with 'Dick Travis, better known as Tom Rolland (not the noted coun terfeiter), who was killed by officers at Shelby Junction. O., while resisting arrest after a bank robbery. They bought a row boat at Portsmouth and rowed down to the town, and arriving there about 11 o'clock at night they sought refuge in a church until time to commence operations on the bank vault. "It so happened that t a young couple of the town who were going to elope at mid night to Aberdeen, O., chose the church as a meeting place and arrived soon after the gang had secreted themselves in the church. The gang overheard the couple discussing their'plans, and it entered into Dare Devil Blinkey Morgan's head to inaugurate the bank robbery by a wedding, as it was nec essary anyhow to tie np a Methodist minis ter who lived next door to the bank. The couple were placed Under guard. Morgan proceeded to the minister's house, secured the 'sky pilot' at the point of a gun, and, re turning to the church, compelled the minis ter to marry the couple under penalty of death. The newly-mated pair ana the min ister were tied ana- left under the guard of Pat Kelly. bt.tnkey's bank bobbery, "Morgan and Travis proceeded to the bank, from whose vaults they in a short time transferred several thousands in bills to their pockets. a At a signal Kelly joined them, and, entering a skiff, they proceeded several miles down the river to a little town in Ohio. There they hired a wagon and proceeded to a railway station, SO miles back in the country, arriving there at dusk next day, after the last train had departed. They put up at a little hotel with the intention of iaking the 5:30 train out in the morning. "While they were eating breakfast the Sheriffs posse arrived and attempted to arrestdbem. A desperate battle ensued in which Kelly was shot and badly wounded, Morgan and Travis get ingaway. Morgan went at once to Judge" he employed to go and square the thing and secure the relase of Kelly. The -physician who attended Kelly, and the Sheriff who had him under surveillance were paid lib erally to connive at his escape. He was represented by the physician as fatally hurt. The steamer Bonanza was seoured. to meet a stolen engine, which conveyed Kelly to a steamboat landing at a point on the Ohio river. Kelly was put on board the boat, carried almost to Cincinnati, and then, disembarking, took a train for Cleve land, where he afterward died from the ef fects of his wounds. Before his death he gave all the plans to 'Blinkey' Morgan for the robbery of Buddy & Benedict's fur store, which eventually caused Morgan's execution. ' . ' "I never knew a man with more courage or presence of mind than 'Blinkey Morgan." THE LICOMXG JUDGESHIP. In The Contest Bring Konglit With Vigor the Willlamsport Conrts. rSPECIAI.
