THE PARTY BANKRUPT.
Straightouts Defeated by Money and
the Lack of It.
ABCH H. ROWAND PAYING BILLS.
The
Straightonts to Maintain Their
Organization and
DEMOCRATS WILL PROFIT THEREBY
The Straightout infant was s trifle im
patient yesterday. Among strangers, -without
a cent of money in its clothes and noth
1 ing to eat but crow, the feelings of the
' youngster were anything but happy. It has
inot given up life, however, and the an
nouncement is made that it will continue
as a regular Kepublican organization of
"the great State of Allegheny."
Hope of success was not abandoned by
, the Straightouts until i o'clock yesterday
afternoon. Up in their modest headquarters
on Diamond alley Chairman Fleeson and
la coterie of his fellow leaders gath
ered around a fire kept burning
with old campaign documents, and as
I they anchored their hopes on miraculous
results from unreported districts, they re
told the grievances of their party and
pledged themselves to stick together for the
good of their cause. It was a disheartened
Catherine, but it looked like a band of
happy angels n comparison with the face ol
Arch H. Rowand, who was kept busy at his
office receiving campaign bills.
A Doleful Wait of Woe,
"And not a cent to pay them," said the
Straightout leader as he picked up a little
missive from the District Messenger office,
a-Ving payment for th work of the boys
'who had manned the polls. "Our treasury
has been empty for a week," continued Mr.
, Itowand. "and' I have been contracting debts
on my own account. Xo w I will have the
pleasure of paying them.
"I tell you," continued Mr. Rowand
raising his" voice to a campmeeting ex
dortcr's tone and knocking the dust out of
the table with his fist, "it was money on the
other side and lack of it on our side that
beat us. A week ago we hud the battle won,
but we could only pay $5 for men to man
the polls, and the other side went us five
better, so they got the ward workers and we
Lad to hire messenger boys. As the returns
hae shown the plan wasn't a brilliant suc
cess. Besides that we had to cope with the
office holders and all their relations
in the county. "Why, there wasn't
a brass button or a front office
man on the Allegheny police force that
didn't work for the ring, and of course
I'lttsburc kent up the same pace. "We
had to fight our own battle and we only had
?3,000 to do it with, but no one will deny
that the eflort was a good on."
We Are the Feop'-i.
"Will the organizatii be kept up?" Mr.
Jlowaud was asked.
"Will the Republican party in Alle
gheny county be kept up?" he questioned
in reply. "Ve are the Republican party,
at.d our banner will be flying when the
City Hall organization's tomb is crumbling
into dust Mr. Fleeson is Chairman ot the
Republican County Committee, and will
probably call a meeting soon to straighten
out the partv's affairs. Our primaries
hereaftir will be under the Craw
ford county system, and if the
ring men can come in and get a
nomination we will turn in and support
them The next fight will be on the city
election of Councllmen, and following
that the selection of delegates to the
National Convention. "We are in this
light to stay. A new party has seldom
gamed as great strength as we have in a

single conflict, and it seems to me that the
future has bright things in store for us."
"How about those prosecutions you were
to make to-day?"
"Haven't got the cash," replied Mr.
Rowand. "X don't know what the commit
tee will do, but for my part I intend to
drop the matter, although there is plenty of
evidence of fraud."
Continuing, Mr. Rowand stated that a
Straightout club would be organized in
Pittsburg on the same plan as the Americus
and Tariff clubs.. He stated that 70 men
had agreed to pay in $10 each to start the
club, and he thought enough others would
join to get good quarters.
Three Dejected Democrats. ,
A few doors below Mr. Rowand's office
three dejected Democrats, who had .joined
the Straightouts, were found discussing
how it had been done. They were Attorney
O'Brien, Councilman Huckenstein, of Alle
gheny, and "William "Walls, the ex-labor
leader. The opinion was unanimous
that boodle had done it. Mr. "Walls
said that the Democrats would
continue their fight and that the next ef
fort would, he said, be to prevent "O'Leary,
Larkin and that gang," from getting the
honors at the Democratic National Conven
tion. He thought the reform people in both
parties would unite to knock out the ring
and that the Straightout Republicans and
Straightout Democrats would together make
a factor in politics that would be invinci
ble. The committee of 21 independent
Democrats, he said, would probably hold a
meeting soon, to decide what to do, and he
thought steps would be taken to form a
permanent organization.
Ex-Judge Fetterman is getting used to
defeats and this last one didn't seem to
worry him. The only reason he knew for
not being elected was that he did not get
enough votes.
"Will the Straightout organization be
continued?" he was asked.
"Why certainly he replied. "It's pretty
lively tor a year old and has demonstrated
that it is here to stay. The greatest gain
in- the luture, I think, will be in Allegheny
where it will probably join with the Citi
zens' Reform Association. The two com
bined will get control in Councils and when
the people on this side of the river see the
good government the Northside is getting,
the Pittsburg ring will be thrown over
board and the Straightouts will be recog
nized as the Republican party. This was a
preliminary fight and our strongest oppo
nents must admit that we made a good show
ing." Democrats Will Stand Alone.
"Provided the Straightouts keep up their
strength will the Democrats again unite
with the Republicans against themj" Com
missioner Dennis Boyle was asked.
"Democrats arc for reform," was the're
ply "and weare forthe best man. The Dem
ocratic party has the best men and there
fore it will make its own nominations and
if the Republicans or Straightouts wish to
join with us thejr are perfectly welcome to
come in. The circumstances under which
the two parties united this time were pecu
liar and it is hardlv likely they will occur
again. If the Straightouts fight the Repub
licans, the Democrats will step in and get
the victory. We will make an attempt to
elect as many Councllmen next spring as
we can and I look for considerable success."
Pat Foley held the same views. He
thinks the opportunity for the Democratic
party in Allegheny county is at hand and
that the opportunity will he accepted.

THE PITTSBURG
SPECULATION RUINED IT.
THE MAVERICK BANK PLUNGED
DEEPLY INTO BAD BISKS.
Comptroller Lacy Chntged With Knowing
the Bank's Condition Since last Janu
aryHints That He May Lose His Official
HeadThe Five-Cent Bank Ban.
Boston, Nov. 4. The Journal says: There
is nothing in the affairs of the Maverick
National Bank of which the Clearing House
has not been fully advised. The committee
has guarded every point It arranged that
T. P. Beale should be the receiver for well
considered reasons. The facts regarding the
loans of the bank have been in possession of
the Comptroller of the Currency since last
January, and it is now intimated that an
other comptroller is likely to be appointed
before long.
The general loan account, outside of the
72,400,000 due irom directors and the Evans
losses, is good and shows good judgment
and caretul banking. The directors' loans
have still considerable collateral behind
them. Specnlation is the one word that ex
plains all speculation in stocks and grain,
with the Maverick Bank funds backing the
deals. The first great speculation of the
Maverick Bank was by Messrs. French &
Potter in New York and New England. It
was successful from a pecuniary point of
view, but in that success lay concealed the
ultimate ruin of the bank. In the New York
and New England mystery deal the bank's
funds were used to a startling degree.
Although the Maverick Bank has been
known as a speculative bank, no one outside
of Mr. Evans and the bank directors could
have imagined the extent of the specula
tions. It is now not to be wondered at that
when the death of Irving A, Evans was an
nounced, President Potter, in the directors'
room, should have physically collapsed; but
it is a wonder, in the light of present revel
ations, that he should for so many days
have patched up affairs and stemmed the
current.
Examiner Ewer says he hopes to get out
within three or four days some sort of state
ment that will enable the other banks to
guage the advances that shall be made to
depositors.
The run on the Five Cent Savings Bank
continues. Policemen are guarding the en
trance. President Evans says he will con
tinue to pay out money until it is deemed
advisable to take advantage of the 60-day
law. One national bank has offered him
5500,000, and he has received offers of large
amounts irom other institutions.
