.MAKES A GENERAL DENIAL
GrUtaka Says That lla Did Not Kill John
Mlckus.
John Grlshka, the Polander under ar
rest on suspicion of having killed John
Mlckus, persists In denying his guilt
and. In giving what seems to be a very
Improbable reason for the presence of
blood stains on his overcoat. The tell
tale blood was what led to his arrest.
The accused Polander was yesterday
morning . taken from the West Side
police station house, where all efforts
to Interview him were met by his as
surance that he could not speak or un
derstand English, although he Is known
to have been in this country three or
four years and to have acted as In
trepreter for his countrymen on sev
eral occaslons,Through an Interpreter,
however, he gave to a Tribune reporter
what seems to be a lame explanation
of the presence of the blood stains.
Grlshka said that on March 10, a
pay day at the Brlsbin mine, where
he worked, he slipped and fell on hla
face. His nose bled and some of the
blood got on his overcoat. The coat
he did not again use until the Wednes
day morning when Mlckus' body was
found. He said that he picked It u
hurriedly when told of the finding of
the body, and hurried to the scene,
where Coioner Longstreet noticed the
blood on his coat and ordered his ar
rest. ukasox foh docbtixo stout.
The story may lie true, but there are
many plausible .reasons for doubting
It. In the first place It seldom nap
pens that a person falls on his face, un
less he Is without arms. It appears
Improbable, also, that he had not worn
the coat sine March 10, as since that
date there has been some cold weather
and two days of heavy snow. He cer
tainly will have to make some plauslbre
excuse for wearing it the morning the
body was found, u morning that was
mild and clear.
The most damaging evidence of all,
however, is the freshness of the stains
which does not indicate that the blood
fell on the ccat as long ago as March
10. This fact. In view of tlrlshku's
slory to the contrary, will work serious
ly against him If County Detective Ley
shun succeeds In procuring for tomu
row night's Inquest evidence that
irlshka and Mlckus were together dur
ing the night before the llHdlng of the
body. It is only this point that is luck
ing that would warrant the Jury in
fastening the crime on Grishku, as it
has been proved thut he and Mickus,
with whom he boarded, frequently
fought over Mlckus' wife, and that she
and (irlshka had frequently denied the
husband access to his home.
THINGS HE Ml' ST EXPLAIN.
Grlshka, too, hus yet to explain how
he learned that Mlckus was dead utiil
what brought him so early to the spot
wht re the body was found.
County Detective Leyshon declines to
make known the theory on which he is
working. He yesterday subpoened sev
eral new witnesses for tomorrow night's
Inquest, and It is presumed some of
these will be able to tell something of
(hi) whereabouts of Mlckus and Urlsh
ku on Tuesday night.

ACTION WAS ENDORSED
Election State Dvlequtes by County
Committee Meets with Approvul.
KP.S0LITI0X.T0 THAT EFFECT
Adopted at Last Night's Meeting of the
htmocratla Standing Committee of
the Scoond Legislative District
After a Spirited Debate.
Antl-Harrlty men swayed the Dem
ocratic committee of the Second Legis
lative district last night at Its meeting
in the St. Charles hotel held to protest
against the action taken by the substi
tutes for committeemen in the same
place at noon Wednesday.
A radical resolution was adopted
strongly condemning tho action of the
men who met Wednesday, relinquishing
-whatever right legislative standing
committees may have to elect state
delegates and finally endorsing the ac
tion of the county committee In elect
ing state delegutes. As a compromise
the antls allowed a few words at the
end of the resolution approving the
committee's choice of sta,te delegates to
be stricken out. That wan only done
after a very stubborn debate, during
which the motion to a (loot the resolu
tion was lost on a tie vote.
The members of the legislative com
mittee were very much excited when
they leivned of the action of the sub
stitutes In the St. Charles hotel, and In
response to their wishes M. J. Donahoe,
the chairman, called a meeting of the
real committee for last night. The fol
lowing attended it: Eighth ward, T.
C. Melvin: Ninth ward, T. P. lioban;
Tenth ward, John Rutterman, Jr.;
Eleventh ward, Fred Klrchoff; Twelfth
ward, David Clark; Thirteenth Ward, M.
J. Cadilen; Sixteenth ward. John F.
Muiphy; Twentieth ward, M. J. Dopa
hoe. COMMITTEE ORGANIZED.
Although Mr. Donahoe Is chairman of '
the committee, he suggested that it
would be better to proceed to organisa
tion, as u majority of the committee
was present. He was chosen chairman
and John F. Murphy secretary. These
details completed, M. J. Cadden offered
the following resolution, and moved its
adoption, T. C. Melvin seconding the
motion:
Resolved, That the members of the Sec
ond legislative district committee repudi-
ale the action of the gentlemen who as
sun bled at the SI. Charles hotel March
18, and constituted themselves members
of said committee without any autlicrity
and proceeded to elect from uuong their
members delegates to attend tbe state
convention. We also desire to call the
attention of the citizens of the Second
district to the method they pursued in
making the cull by attaching the names
of committeemen without their consent,
and serving but twenty minutes' notl.e
on the rcKiilnr appointed committee to at
tend their piH-arraiiKed Katheiiug.
The appointing of delcnates to attend
the state convention was Irregular, as
the rules of the Democratic party of
Lackawanna county are that all delegates
to the state convention shall be elected by
the county convention with a proviso that
if no county convention Is held previous
to the state convention the state dele
gates ure to be elected by the direct rep
resentatives of the county convention,
namely the county committee.
The resolution Introduced by Mr. W. J.
Burke In a county convention three years
atto relating lo the election of state dele
gates was Ignored at the last election of
slate delegates by these very gentlemen
who called the snap gathering on Wednes
day. As they held, and correctly so, thut
the resolution was out of order, It belli
offered at a convention called together for
another purpose and did not specify that
business should be transacted except tho
nominating of candidates for certain of
fices and when those nominations were
made the convention had no power to
transact any further buslnwis.
The county committee having complied
with'all the rules relating to the election
of state delegates, we endorse their action
and approve their selection of siaiu dele
gates. SPIHITET DEBATE FOLLOWED.
This resolution perclpjtated a spirit
ed debute In which all of the members
of the committee participated. Mr. Un
ban was in favor of moving cuutlously.
He would like to know If the legislat
ive committees have the right to elect
state delegates before adopting such u
resolution or taking any other action.
Mr. Cadden said the Burke resolution
empowering legislative conventions to
elect state delegates wus irregular and
should not lie recognized. To this Mr.
liobun retorted:
"We claim that the county committee
usurped our rights when it named the,
delegates and we would be stultifying
ourselves by endorsing their action."
Mr. Murphy did not see the mutter In
that light and said that If the commit
tee was sulislled with the delegates for
the Second district elected by the coun
ty committee they nuK'hl to be endorsed.
Clmirnmn Donahoe entered a protest
uguinrt the adoption of the resolution.
He said thut the action of the men who
met Wednesday should be condemned
in the strongest terms, lint on
the other hand the county com
mittee should not be endorsed
for he was not sure thut Its
members were not also in the wrong.
At all events It would not help the
ense of the county committee, wns
therefore unneeei.uiry and useless und
placed the committee In the position' of
going out of Us way to take up u
quarrel.
P.CLES FOR TWELVE YEARS.
Mr. Cadden thought that they could
with great propriety endorse the action
of the county committee, of which he Is
also a member, for the committee rep
resents the people of the county and
they would therefore be simply endors
ing the action of the people of the coun
ty and therefore their own action. This
bit of logic quite staggered and sub
merged the members of the committee.
Mr. Melvin wns the lirst to come to the
surface. He said the county committee
had been electing state delegates for
twelve years and the practice can only
be changed at a convention called for
that purpose. Mr. Murphy was unable
to see how a county convention, such as
adopted the Burke resolutlon.'could leg
islate for a legislative district.
Mr. Klrchoff objected to the latter
part of the resolution endorsing the ac
tion of the county committee, and
Chairman Donahoe declared that the
only thing for them to do was to de
clde whether or not they would call a
convention to elect state delegates. A
demand was made by Cadden and oth
ers that the resolution be put before
the body, and It was lost on a tie vote.
Melvin. Cadden. Murphy ana Clark
voting for the adoption of the resolution
and Hpban. Klrchoff, Butternmn and
Donahoe against It.
RESOLUTION WAS AMEXDED.
' Then there wns more argument. Mr.
Donahoe said that he thought it would
be a Judicious thing for the committee
to straddle the county committee
matter, but Mr. Melvin stoutly object
ed to such proceeding. He said he
never admired a straddler.
Mr. Klrchoff, who had up to this
point been opposed to any endorsement
of the county committee's" action,
showed a rtisnositlon to make conces
sions, and taid he would be satisfied if
the words approving of the county
committee's choice of state delegates
were eliminated from the resolution.
This was an unimportant feature of the
resolution.
It was then taken up liy sections and
adopted, with the exception of the fol
lowing closing words; "And approve
their selection of state delegates." Mr.
Donahoe called the attention of the
committeemen to the strong language
in which the unqualified endorsement
of the county committee's action was
couched, but the sections containing the
endorsement were adopted, neverthe
less. John J. Shea, John J. O'Boyle and
Charles Schadt were the gentlemen
chosen by the county committee to rep
resent the Second district. They are

TWENTIETH WARD I'ONTKST.
.
John II. Kuddy's Went to I ill the Office
of Alderman Is Disputed.
Something unusual In the way for
bringing a contest was brought out yes
terduy by Attorneys M. J. Donahoe und
C C. Donovan who Instituted u contest
ugainst the election of John J. Kudily
to the otlice of uldernian of the Twenti
eth ward. They represent Professor
John K. O'Malley, the present alilci intin.
who wus defeated for re-election ly the
victorious candidate liy only fourteen
votes.
It Is charged thut Mr Ruddy received
Ijr, lllcgul votes, ml or this number
many cast their ImiIIoIh for lilm who
received money, reward, or some other
valuable codkIiIi mtioii.
It Is charged that perilous voti-d for
Air. lauldy who were not qualified elect
ors by reuson of the fuct that Hume
hud not paid any taxes within the time
prescribed by luw; others voted who
were not registered and their votes were
received und counted notu itliHtuuding
that they did not tile a sumVicnt utll
davit; und many voted who hud not
resided In the state and In the election
district lung enough to eiftitle them to
the rlglit; and there were some who
voted und hud not been duly natural
ized; und. lastly votes were received
from certain persons who did not re
side In the polling district.
LAW WAS DISREGARDED.
It Is further charged that certain of
the election officers disregarded tlie law
and used their own sweet will in re
ceiving and rejecting legal votes. The
petition alleges that 125 votes were cust
for Mr. Ruddy that a contest will prove
were Illegal, and the number of such
votes In each district is accounted as
follows: First district. 60 votes; Sec
ond district, 25- votes; Third district, 20
votes: Fourth district, 20 votes.
Judge Archbald grunted a rule to
show cause why Mr. Ruddy should not
file ah answer and made It returnable
on Monday, March :!0. at 8 a. m. Yes
terday was the last for filing petitions
to contest any otlice voted for at the re
cent election. The law requires that
contests must be Instituted not later
than 3U days after the day of election.
srGNERS OF THE PETITION.
The petition wns filed In the office of
Clerk of the Courts John H. Thomas,
and it was signed by the follow-In citl
xens of the ward: Michael E. Kelly, Mi
chael A. Donahoe. MiTtln H. T.avelle,
Patrick McDonough. Thomas Blanche,
Patrick -Hannlck. Patrick Corcoran,
Richard Iivelle. Martin J. Liovern,

Henry Siglin, Michael Devaney, T. J.
Coyne. Owen Melvin, George J. Hailey,
Thomas Richardson, Bernard O'Malley,
James M. Lnvelle. .Michael Lavelle,
Patrick Wallace, and J. H. Dalley.
The petition sets forth that Mr. Ruddy
received a total of 3Sli votes. Professor
O'Malley, a total of 319. and Michael
Mi-Garry, a total of 172. That Mr. Rud
dy has been returned as having received
the highest vote cast for any one per
son at that election for the office of
alderman, hut thnt this return Is a false
one and the election Is undue and Il
legal for the reason that Mr. Ruddy did
not receive more than 20g votes and
Professor O'Malley received at least
31.
