Several Persons Selected for Each
Office So That When Declinations

Some One Left to Uphold the Ban
ner of the Party of Monumental
Political Foolhardiness.
There has been considerable hobnob
bing and whispering of late among the
recognized Democratic connty leaders
relative to making up a slate to be rail
roaded through the coming nominating
convention.
The elating has been attempted with
efforts to hold it as seeret as possible
until a short time before the conven
tion The leaders thus hope to guard
against iuterfsrenoe ou tbe part of un
desirable candidates who already ehow
Igne or a political bee buzzing about
their ears.
Three so-called seeret meetings have
been held; two of the meetings were
held at Zlegler's, and Tim TnniUNK is
enabled to present for the benefit of all
political creeds the contemplated ticket.
Here it is, and where more than one
name appears for an office the mott
likely candidate is presented first.

While R I. Smith was last fall de

that tne party owes him another try for

the present Fourth district representa
tive at the legislature, will b surprised
at the announcement of Mr Burks's
candidacy for the souat rt!,ip , in fact
it is understood at Carboudale that
Mr. Uurke will light for a renotuina
tlnn against Miles J. McAndrew and
James F. Healey, of Arclibald The
trnth of the matter is however, that
Mr. Burke wishes to climb up the poli
tical ladder, and may interfere with
.Senator McDonald's aspirations for a
renomination.
BURKS IS IN EARNEST.
It is understood that nu emiessry of
Mr. Burke recently conferred with
some of tho leadors here and urged his
patron's candidacy. The Inside men
are on the fence in rhe matter.
There is 11 possibility that If Mr.
Burke is turned down as a senatorial
nominee he will cause the bosses
much uneasiness.
CHASE WILL BE A CANDIDATE.
8c Says Field Marshal James Mahon
tvii . Ehould Know.
"I think it is safe to assert that At
torney A. A. Chase will again be a can
didate for .lodge this fall" said Field
Marshal James Mahon last evening ss
he gracefully leaned on his cane at
Wyoming avenue and Spruce street
and thoughtfully rubbed tbe snow
white stubnle on bis chin.
1 'I have not heard Mr. Chase express
any desire to rnn but from the way af
fairs and sentiments throughout the
eounty are shaping I do not sse how
he oan refuse -to become a candidate.
These who advocated his oandidaey be
fore will do so again but with renewed
vigor,"

INJUNCTION IS CONTINUED-.
Judgo Qunster Hands Down an Opinion
In Davis-Jirmyn Case.
Judgo Qunster yesterday handed
down an opinion in the injunction
oase of Leah Jones-Davis agaiust John
Jermyn and Contractor Conrad Senroe
der. A portion of it ie ae follows:
The evidence shows that the premises
included are part of a double buildnig aud
that tbe plaintiff has constructed and
erected extensions and additions to it;
and that since she wont into possession,
she had used an outhouse, situate on tho
easterly half of tho whole lot in connec
tion therewith fir. Jermyn Is engaged in
the erection of a hotel building which Is
desigued or planned eventually to cover
the whole lot. At present bis intention is
to completo tbe strvcture to the inside
line of the double building, of
which the plaintiff occupies the
westerly half, To do this it
will be necessary for him to tear dowu tho
easterly half of the building. The evi
dence shows that this can be dono without
injuring or destroying tbe westerly half or
tbe extensions or additions thereto. But
Iu excavatiug for the hotel bulKling Mr.
Jermyn encroached in tho rear and it also
became necessary for bim to remove the
outhouse which the plaintiff had UAed mid
which she claims tbe right to use. This
structure however was not on the prem
ises described in tbe lease that Is whs not
on the westerly half of the lot,
aud while tho plaintiff may have been
permitted to ue it, nor right to do so is
not clear. As the present plans of Mr.
Jermyn do not contemplate any encroach
ment upon or injury to the rights ot the
plaintiff, the injunction might t dis
solved, but as It will work him no harm
and will seen re nn observance of the rights
of tbe plalutiff, I think it best that It
should be couttuued.
Tbo rule la madu absolute and tbe in
junction heretofore grunted is continued
until otherwise ordered.
