VICTORY IS FORESHADOWED Republican Candidates Will Be Elected by Geo '.Sized Pluralities Democrats to Vote for Jude Smith Alone. Scheme la Openly Advocated. Tomorrow Is election day and a bril liant Republican victory is foreshad owed in Lackawanna county. Several circumstances have combined to make this an accepted and foregone conclu slon. Perhaps the most potent factor toward success is the disaffection that exists In the ranks of the opposition. The watchword among the Democratic candidates Is "Every man for hlmseir. The policy -with respect to the Su perior court Judges Is to vote Judge Smith alone and slash the remaining five candidates. There is nothing covert In this purpose; It is openly ad vised in the Times and Sunday News. These Journals argue that a person who votes for the six Democratic candidates for Judge of the Superior court does not help any one of them; It only increases the number of votes cast for each and docs not put one any more than another In the lead. They concede that Judge Wlllard Is safe; that, of course, was never doubt ed at any period of the campaign; but there 1b Imposed, nevertheless, on ev ery Republican of the county a specific duty to give Judge Wlllard, Dr. Long street, and Edmund A. Bartl a testi monial that will fully attest the de served popularity of the three gentle men. This being a year when but a few ofllc-8 are to be filled, there Is a ten dency among many voters to stay at home. This class in some elections en compasses the defeat of a ticket, and the necessity of getting out the entire vote is readily apparent Campaign Much Enlivened. Within the past ten days great en thusiasm has sprung up among the Re publican party workers, particularly the young element, and the result from the West Side and North End tomor row will signalize the effective and in dustrious campaigning that has been done in these places. The South Side is always solid and never disappoints the expectation of the candidates. The vote In Carbondale, Taylor, Archbald and Olyphant, and the outlying dis tricts will also be large. John H. Thomas, chairman of the county committee, reinforced by every member of the committee, has man aged ine campaign with signal credit and success. Their work has been try ing and burdensome, but equal to the emergency. There has been no fagging, ana tney are safely awaiting the close of the polls tomorrow. By tonight the county commissioners will have finished the task of distrib uting the ballots among the various election districts. They began last Fri day ana nave been continuously with the exception of Sunday, at work since. When It Is considered that over 70,000 ballots are required and other para phernalia that has to be distributed, It Is seen that a work of magnitude de volves on the commissioners. Republicans Are Not Objecting. The Republicans have no obleetlon to the avowed course the Democrats In tend to pursue In regard to votlnir for Judge Smith alone. This does not In any way endanger Republican victory; on the contrary It has stimulated Re publicans to make Judge Wlllard's ma- Jorlty a magnificent one. They are de- termmea witn great zeal that Judge Smith's friends cannot outdo them. Nor are the Republicans Intending to pursue the tactics of their brethren of the opposite fold In voting for the home candidate alone. Loya. to the state and eountv HMu each Republican will vote the straight ticket. It Is conceded that Judge Wll lard will lead the ticket; his monu mental labors for the party In the past have earned for him the right to ex pect a nandsome remembrance on this, his first aspiration for political honors. calculations are made for tomorrow that the total vote polled win nt ... ceed 75 per cent, of what was polled last year; In other words that not much over 20,000 ballots will be cast. It is probable that a larire percentage of the stay-at-homes will be Democrats. NOT HIS GREATEST WORK. A Black Sheep Is Nevertheless a Very r.mcnnining Farce. A Black Sheen." One Of ITiTO.'a In .An. farces, which had its first production In this city Saturday nle-ht i ih. Academy of Music, Is not the greatest of Mr. Hoyfs efforts to elevate the etage, neither Is It destined to live as long as some of Its predecessors from that farce writer's prolific pen, for in It Mr. Hoyt has taken a step backwards towards "A Tin Soldier" and "A Brass Monkey." He has Injected Into It more noise, but less real humor and clever ness than he did Into A Trip-to China town." The public has found that Mr. Hoyt Is capable of really good work In his line and It Is naturally a disap pointment to see him returning to the slam-bang order of farces. Even with the faults of being two loud and containing too much horse play, "A Black Sheep" Is entertanlnir and the large audience that saw the I performance Saturday night enjoyed '. many a neany laugn as the details of the very transparent plot were reveal ed. The dialogue Is clean and quite clever and there Is a good deal of bright, original music. A situation that might be cut out with benefit to the farce is the one at the end of the second act, where the black sheep of the Mudd family Is endeavoring to get acquainted with the girl his aunt's will commands him to marry. It Is not humorous and certainly has no other feature to rec ommend It The success of Saturday night's per formance Is due more to the company than to Mr. Hoyt. Otis Harlan was the bright particular star of the occa sion and kept the audience In a merry mood while on the stage. . nilam De Vere, Henry Luckstone, Joseph Notus, Steve Maley, Ada Dare, Agnes Rose Lane and a quartette of pretty young women who can sing and dance enter tainingly asslted in the fun-making. With Mr. Harlan and the members of his company In the cast "A Black Sheep" la a good vehicle to drive dull care away. TERROR ON A RAMPAGE.

William iRIederlch, aged probably 50 years, without friends or relatives, at 4.30 yesterday afternoon was found dead in a barn where he was allowed to make this home, iln the rear of 701 Meadow avenue, in 'the upper -part of the Nineteenth ward, near .the Erie and Wyoming Vailley rajllroad. The deceased was a German. He came to tints city in 1870 and followed the trade of painter. For three or four years back he eked out a precarious existence, and was chiefly dependent on the charity of the nelprhlbors. Bern ard fiubel owned the barn where Riede rlch lived since August. He had never been married, and did wh-it odds and ends of palnalng fences and chairs, etc., that he managed to procure. The stable was quite a com fortable lMtle place. He had his kit chen, dl-ndng room and parlor down stalls all In one, and slept in a narrow apartment upstairs, the floor of which was covered with manllla paper. F. vert thing Xeni nn I Cite". The walls were papered with ma terial nlmilar 'to ithat on the floor. Evecy.'.lhing betokened the most abject poverty, but, withal, there was an air of cleanliness and order a.bout the premises. He had been in very poor health for it-hiree months, and suffered from acute diabetes. It was noticed by the Bubel family that he had not been around for coal or water slnoe Satur day night, and IMr. Bubcl went up to the -barn to Inquire the cause of it. He cIIrr.'be.T a la'dler to a small window In the upstairs and saw Rlederlch on the small cot. CalJIng a neighbor, he burst the door In. The body was still warm. Dr. J. A. Manley was summoned; a Merman Storr, of the (Nineteenth ward, was also sent for to hold an InquesiU 'it Ihuvlnig been .heard that Coronfir KeHey was not in the city. Dr. Manley .made an examination of the bidy and 'Iriformed Mr. Storr that an Inquest was unnecessary, death hav-. Ing been caused from collapse of the kidneys, and general breaking down of -the system. Coroner Kelley arrived a little la'ttr and decided that an In-ques-t was unnecessary. The funeral may take place thOs afternoon. He mod All Alone. Rlod'Cirleh's possessions include a few copper pennies, two sacks of flour and a ham. The fire was out and every thing around the place appeared as If he had laid down to sleep Saturday wight, became unconrclous and re mained In that condition until a brief time before his body was discovered, when he lapsed Into t'he last sleep thatt knows no waking.

SAD END OF A TOIXC LIFE. Bcliof That Scvcntecn-Year-Old Gertrude Kellerman Died from a Crmlaal Opera. I Ition. Gertrude Kellerman. daughter of John jvellerman, of Hamm court, Soutn Side, died Saturday afternoon of blood poisoning. She would have been seven teen years old next December. Among the people who knew the family there are whisperings of suspicious circum stances, and they would seem to be fully warranted according to the infor mation gained from an Interview with Dr. J. A. Manley, of Pittston avenue. A Tribune reporter called at Dr. Man- ley's office last evening and this Is sub stantially what he Bald: "I am satis fied that a criminal operation was per formed on her. When I was called to see her Friday she was suffering from the result of what I believed was such an operation, and although I made dili gent Inquiry, could elicit nothing from the girl's father or relatives concerning any person or persons who had used any Instrument on her. She had been pregnant, and there is a remote possi bility that while In a high state of fever delivery might have occurred, but I be lieve and am confidently sure that an operation was performed upon her." The coroner had not been notified last night, nor lias there been any investi gation made. It was outside of Dr. Manley's province to make a report of the matter, as he had been only casu ally called In to see the girl. The family is in destitute circumstances and the Poor Board assisted them. Inquiry as to the Identification of the perpetrator of the criminal operation has been made. Kellerman Is a shiftless man and his family Is somewhat wayward. His other daughter Is In the House of the Oood Shepherd. The funeral of the dead girl will take place this afternoon at 2 o'clock and Interment will be made In Mlnooka German cemetery, unless an Investigation postpones It Miss llardenbergh's Plsnoforts.

THEIR PRIVATE JAIL OPENED The Prisoner .Makes Eoowa His niegsl Detcntioa In a Novel Method and Habeas Corpus Proceedings Lead to ' Disclosure of the Whole Story. The Identity of the prisoner whom Barring & McSweeney have been detain ing since last Tuesday In their office in the Commonwealth building has at last been ascertained and in a rather sin gular manner. His name Is Frank Wil son and he is wanted for murder in Al tona. At 6 o'clock on the above named even ing Barring and McSweeney with three manacled prisoners alighted from the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western train, got into a cab and drove to their office. The three men were locked up In one of their suite of rooms and a guard placed over them. Next day they were taken out for breakfast to a nearby res taurant, but after that nothing was seen of them In public until Saturday afternoon, when Wilson was taken be fore Judge Archbald on a writ of habeas corpus. It now develops that Wilson's fellow prisoners were two of Barring & Mc Sweeney's detectives. They were re leased, of course, sometime Wednesday, but Wilson was put in Irons and held a prisoner in the office. But notwith standing the vigilance of his watchers he managed to open communications with the outside world. The building occupied by Hill & Con noil's furniture store Is separated from the Commonwealth building by an area way about ten feet In width. Just op posite the Barring & McSweeney office the mettress department of the furni ture store Is located and the girls em ployed there on several occasions saw the handcuffed prisoner through the window and during Thursday several other employes of the store witnessed the same sight. Commnnlcatcd with Them, The prisoner also saw them and on Friday communicated with them by writing In large letters on slips of paper and holding them up to the window to be read. He told In this laborious way that he had been illegally arrested and vas being detained illegally. No war rant had ever been read to him and he had never been given a hearing. V. A. Bone, one of the clerks, inter ested Mmsc'ilf in tlhe prisoner's behalf, and laid the case before Attorney George M. Watson, who Immediately proceeded to have Wilson released by habeas corpusi proceedings. Judge Archbald granted a writ, and at 4.30 Saturday afternoon Deputy Sheriffs Jay and Price brought Wilson before tho Judge. The -prisoner was hand cuffed and closely guarded by the de teotlves, -when .he entered court. Upon seeing this Judge Archbald somewhat sternly said: "Take oft his handcuffs. A prisoner must not be brought into court hand cuffed In that way." After removing the handcuffs Detec tive McSweeney retired to the corridor with his attorney, Joseph O'Brien, and, Sifter a few minutes' conversation, re turned and asked Judge Archbald to exclude the reporter as it would de feat the ends 6f justice to have the particulars of the case published. Nn Star Chamber Proceedings. "I do not think & Judge would be Justified In excluding them. This pro oee'dlng must necessarily be public, and the reporters (may remain," was the Judge's reply, Mr. Watson opened the argument by denouncing In strong terms the man ner 1n which Wilson had been held In custody. "This man," tie said, "was arrested and brought to this city and Impris oned here without any regard for law or Justice. The wan-ant was not backed until today, after these habeas coirpus proceedings -were begun. The prisoner has no objections to going to Altoona. for a (hearing, but he does ob ject to ibetng locked and shackled In that office for four days more." Mr. McSweeney stalled that, acting under th-e directions of District At torney Hammond, of Blair county, he had arrested WJIson on the charge of E-teallng a sold watch. He was a des perate character, on that account they had to handcuff him wh!Je detaining him here, pending an effort to arrest the prisoner's pals, .He Is In reality wanted for inurd-er, not watoh stealing. Judge Archbald told the detectives bh-at imanmuch o.s they had a warrant he would remand the "prisoner to their keeping, providing they turned him over to the (Blair county authorities for a hearing before Wednesday next, iic Sweeney Tiromteed to take Wilson to Altoona today. The prisoner Is a young man appar ently 2 or 27 years of age and muscular and seems to be quite Intelligent. He says that he wns employed as a coach man by an Altoona lady, but lost his work recently and started for New Tork with two men who promised to secure him a position. While on a train bound for New York, as he sup posed, he and his companions were ar rested on the charge of stealing a watch. Hp was bropsrht to this city, where he discovered that his pals were defectives and that they hnd him In custody for a murder committed In Al toona. He does not know, be says, who the victim was. M'Swcenov Was Silent' McSweeney refused to divulge any thing concerning the crime for whlch he had arrested Wilson, alleging that it was necessary to keep silence In order to entrap Wilson's accomplices. In answer to a query sent from the office yesterday the Altoona Tribune wired as follows: Altoona, Pa., Nov. S Frank Wilson Is charged with bMng Implicated In the mur der of Henry Bonneke, whose dead body was found In his little home In this city on April 7 last. He had been utrn.-V nn the head and gagged.
