PanFranclsco, November 16 Full
official returns of this Stale show that
Henry Edgerton, Republican, receives
C07 more vote for elector than does
Judge Terry, tlie lowest on the Demo
cratic ticket, and Is elected. The other
Democratic Electors have majorities
ranging from 87 to 143
The official returns from nil the
counties in New York State g've the
Garfield electors 62,218 majority, and
New York city gives 41,329 inujority
for the Hancock electors, which makes
Garfield's majority 20,889. The
official vote of New York city is :
Hancock, 123.015; Garfield 81,080:
Weaver 610; Dow, 26. Had Hancock
got the same majority in New York
city as Tilden did, Garfield would
still have carried the State by over
8,000 majority.
More than probable is It that
General Grant will be elected by the
Legislature of Illinois to succeed
David Davis in the Senate of the
United States from that State. There
are a number of other prominent can
dates, but no one need be surprised if
Grant beats them all.
Philp to Confess.
THE latest DEVELOPMENTS in the
FOROEUY CASE.
(Special Despatch to Philadelphia Press.)
New York, November 21. Theie
will probably befurtherdelay in bring
ingtlie forgery indictmentstotrial.ow
Ing to the promised confession of Ken
ward Philp, which is announced to
be made to-morrow. They were being
drawn on Saturday with great care,
and a consultation over them was ap
pointed for that afternoon. It was
postponed on the announcement that
Philp would confess his guilt on Mon
day . Counsel believe he has nothing
new to confess and thnt he can throw
no additional light on the manufacture
of the letter and certainly little on
the construction of (he language
which it contained. They say that
the adroit wording of the letter was
something of which neither Philp
nor any one of his immediate associ
ates was capable. They were not
sufficiently acquainted with American
politics to have devised it. The time
chosen for the publication of the for
gery and the methods employed to dis
tribute it also indicate the band of an
old and skillful politician. When it
was made public the indications of the
campaign pointed to the inevitable de
feat of Hancock, largely on account
of the question of protection to Amer
lican manufactures and workmen.
The greatest defection from the Dem
ocratic ranks was among the business
men and skilled laborers. The letter
was designed to show that the protec
tive principle of the Republican plat
form was a pretense, and that Generat
Garfield wascommittd to it only so far
as it promised protection to the manu
facturer at the expense of the work
ingman. It has been found that
many thousands of the handbills on
which the 'forged letter had been
printed were distributed directly by
servants in the houses of Republicans,
and that they were even posted in
kitchens, where servant girls and
their visitors discussed the letter as
meaning that the Chinese were to be
put in their places as house servants
as well as In the place of factory
hands. Every effort was made to
reach these classes of people, and
hence the original publication was
made in a penny paper. It is esti
mated by those active in the campaign
in distributing "tariff cards'' that
this publication cost the Republi
can candidates in this State a'one at
least twenty thousand votes, chiefly
In the interior. Investigation has
shown that the forgery was not of
General Garfield's handwriting or
signature, bnt that of Mr. Brown, his
stenographer and amanuensis. When
this idea was first suggested inquiry
was made in this city for original let
ters of Garfield, and, although scores
of commutations were found signed
with General Garfield's name, they
were almost wit hout exception written
and signed by Mr. Brown. For this
reason Colonel Rockwell of Washing
ton was called as a witness, and a
leuer or a conuoeniiai cnaracter was
used in the examination of Philp.
The forger or forgers had to get a
letter from General Garfield before
they could do any work. It can be
shown, so council state, that such a
letter was procured by II. II. Had ley,
who wrote to General Garfield a letter
Intended to draw out a personal reply
frm him. But the reply was writ
ten by Mr. Brown and signed by
him. It was not of the slightest con
sequence, being merely a reference of
his correspondent to certain printed
documents sent by the same mail.
Yet it was carefully photolithographed
and published in Truth about two
weeks before the forged letter ap
peared. The forgery, it is now known
was based upon the letter of Brown,
to which he had attached the name
of General Garfield by authorization,
and it is believed that that letter was
in Imitation of that of General Garfield-
It is common among persons
having large practice thus to have
imitation of their signature made by
their confidential clerks. It Is not
believed by council In the Philp case
that Mr. Hewitt has ever had an au
tograph from General Garfield.
Bra? s Band.
AN ORGANIZATION PERFECTED; SUB
SCRIPTION circulated; a grand
MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT.
The citizens of Dagus Mines and
vicinity feeling the necessity for a band
of music In our midst, have organized
a brass band of twenty-one members.
Subscriptions for the purpose of rais
ing funds have already been put In
circulation and the people so far have
responded nobly to the call. At u
meeting two weeks ago the following
officers were elected: President Mr.
D. Robertson; Vice President, Mr.
Robt Wilson; Trcas., Mr. Jno. Dowil;
Secretary Mr. Henry Beadle; Leader
Mr. Robt. Wilson; Band Committee
Messrs. John McKillopp, Dave Dan
iels and Wm. Hodgson.
This we consider a move of great
Importance to our citizens, the band
will we think be a benefit to our little
village. It will have a tendency to
bold a great many from misdoings, by
keeping them at home instead of ram
bling off' during the long whiter even
ngs. And also will we think lead to
the organization of societies, which
will be a benefit to our citizens
At a meeting on Saturday evening
last it was proposed to hold a vocal
and instrumental concert for the bene
fit of the band. It was laid before the
meeting and carried by a unanimous
vote of the citizens present and Band
nnd the following committee was an
pointed to further the plans and state
the date for the entertainment: John
Wolford, John Bennett, Enoch Ball.
John McKillopp, C. S. Luther and C.
W. Barrett. Due notice of the time
and place will be laid before the pub
lic in a few days, and we sincerely
hope that our citizens will turn out
and give their hearty support to the
cause. The entertainment will be
gotten up in good shape and the best
of order will be had.
We give below a portion of the sub
scriptions already received. Other pa
pers are out but we are unable to give
the amounts on them in this issue:
James McCloskey, $2.00; John Col
lins, $1.00; Win. MeCauley, f.0; J. J.

$23.00; J H. Steel 1 & Co., SI 5.00, Robt.

A general invitation is extended to
the citizens to attend the meetings of
the band. The next regular meeting
will be held on Saturday evening next
at "o'clock, P. M . at which time a
portion of the band will play a -few
pieces to snow to luo citizens that we
are in earnest.

Governor Hoyt was rather unfor
tunate in the time lie selected forthe ex
ecution of Catherine Miller and George
Smith. Court will commence on the
3rd of January, and will be fairly un
der way by Thursday, the time fixed
for the execution. Then, again,
Sheriff Wilson, who goes into otflee
on the 3rd, will only have three days
in which to prepare for the perform
ance ot wnat must prove to him a
very unpleasant duty. In the first
place, court week is not an appropri
ate time for a dual hanging; and,
secondly, the new sheriff should have
more man tnree (lays in winch to pre
pare for it. These two facts alone are
sufficient to cause a respite of a
month or two, nnd it is very likely
that they will lie carefully considered

now before the American pub ic, is
Hop Bitters. You see it everywhere.
People take it with go:d effect. It
builds them up. It is not as pleasant

A FEMALE PEDDLER
BURNED
TO

Mendville Itciub!icun.
Information was received on Sun

burned at Geneva, but nothing definite

Sarah Conley, were peddlers ,of
notions, and were on their way to
Mansfield, Ol.io. from New York.
They left this city Saturday forenoon,
arriving at Geneva about twelve
o'clock, where they replenished their
stock slightly and proceeded on their
way. A shorl distance west of town
they stopped to cook their dinner, af
ter which, finding themselves very
tired they lay down by the fire to rest.
Conley afterwards went up the road
to engage lodgings and on his return
found his wife lying near the fire
with her clothing ul! ablaze. He was
unable to tear them from her or to
smother them, and before assistance
arrived the woman was fatally burned.
She was taken to the hotel tit Geneva
and everyth Ing possible done for her,
but she died in great agony at 5 o'clock
Sunday morning. She wus native of
Canada, of Irish decent, and aged

Warming A Cartridge.
THE DISASTRIOU8 EXPERIMENT TRIED
BY A NEW YORK FARMER.
Mlddletown, N. Y., November 21.
A shaft Is being sunk on the Shawan-
gunk mountain, at the Beyea farm,
near New Vernon, Sullivan county
for minerals. On Friday Mrs. Levi
Hulseapple, whose husband Is em
ployed In the mines, placed a cartridge
of giant powder In the oven to warm
It. An explosion followed, blowing
the stove to fragments and entirely de
molished that portion of the house.
Mrs Hulseapple was seriously if not
fatally injured by the flying pieces of
the stove, which tore the flesh from
her limbs and scattered the bones.
Her child and her sister, Mrs. Harriet
Berga, who were in the room at the
same time escaped injury. Mrs.
Hulseapple's clothing took fire, but
was extinguished by her husband.
President-elect Garfield will, it Is
thought, retain John Sherman as Sec
retary of the Treasury.
Humbugged Again.
I saw so much said about the merits
of Hop Bitters, and my wife who was
always doctoring, and never well,
teased me so urgently to get her some,
I concluded to he humbugged again;
and I am glad I did, for in less than
two months use of the Bitters my wife
was cured and she has remained so for
eighteen months since. I like sucn
humbugging. II. T.. St. Paul.
