INTERVIEW WITH WILLIAM CONNELL
Well Sat isfi. d with the Journey, the
Convention, the Platform nnd the
TickctHo Does Not Anticipate
Trouble in Consequence of the Sil
ver BoltThousands of Voters IV ill
Put Protection First.
The palace car St. Nicholas, convey
ing homeward from St. Louis the Lack
ewennn delegates and visitors to the
Republican national convention, reachej
Scranton Saturday afternoon at the
scheduled tlma and its occupnnts were
cordially welcomed by a lnrga group of
relatives and friends. Concerning the
convention William Connell said:
"Although there was no bitter fight.
It was full of Interest, und our party re
tunib homo well satisfied."
' How did you find the climate at St.
Louis?" w.is asked.
"Hotter than a g.is J'-t. Notwith
standing thnt we had throe elcctrts fans
constantly In motion In our car, we were
nearly laked. St. Louis !s un Interest
inn city, with many good points, but
spare me from its temperature In mid
summer "
"Has the city recovered yet from tho
cyclone?"
"O no, not yet. The ruins nre still
visible In many places. I did not waste
much energy In tracing the progress of
the stcrm. I preferred to reserve my
self for the work In hand. But nevt-r-tli'lefs
I saw enough of the storm's
rcvoc to give me an Idea of Its awful
dpstructiveness. It Is singular how
that cyclone acted. Often It jumped
clear over the taller buildings and spent
Its t'urv on the little Fhantles in Be
tween." "W'hut about your Imprest-tons of the
convention?"
AN INTERESTING CONVENTION.
"1 do not know thnt there is much to
say that hasn't already been tald. The
three features of course were, the bolt
of the sliver men, the applause when
Senator-elect Koraker nominated Major
McKlnley nnd the ovation which fol
lowed Governor Hastings' presentation
of the candidacy of Senator Quay.
Concerning the former, it would have
be n a gieat tlcal more effective if young
Senator Cannon had not stopped to reai
that paper of explunutlun. When Sen
ator Teller spoke his farewell, he had
the convention's full sympathy. Every
body recognized his honesty, his sin
cerity, his personal cheracter and his
past eminence In Republican councils.
and was profoundly sorry to sec him to.
But when Cunnon began In a delimit
voice to read a declaration of political
war It set the loyal seven-eights of the
convention on edge, and tluy gave vent
to their feelings by cheering vocifer
ously and by singing patriotic hymns
as the sllverites walked out. I couldn't
begin to tell you of the effect produced
by 18,000 lusty voices sounding in uni
son at their loudest pitch the songs and
cheers and yells and whistles which
commingled in the din of this dramatic
Incident, but It was something which
those who heard it will long; remember.
"And then, we bad the samv noise
over agnln, only longer, louder, -and
more of it, when McKlnley was nomi
nated. Tills time It was the noise of
Joy, nnd not of derision. Thu shouting
nfter Senutor Foruker hud spoken the
nominee's name lasted a plump half
hour by Hie watch; and every second
of that time It was keyed almost up to
the pilch of Insanity. Think of nil the
noises you ever heard, odd tbm to
gether and then multiply the pum by
ten nnd imagine the result stitc!ied out
for half un hour in a building where the
temperature wus seemingly up to tho
boiling point, and you will have some
Idea, althoush .not an adequate one, of
the uproar which saluted the name of
William McKlnley.
YELLING FOR QUAY.
"But we Qunyltes got even. When
our man was named we yelled for al
most ns long, and most of the delegates
and nearly all the galleries yelled with
us. Nor was this a manufactured yell.
Of com so the Keystone delgntton, that
is to say, all of It save Martin, Magee
nnd their four companions, whooped
it up for Quay as a matter of state
pride; but the mention of hiss name was
spontaneously acceptable to the con
vention, and t gave him by far the
biggest send-off of the occasion, except
ing, of course, the McKlnley ovation.
Indeed Senator Qay personally, al
though not this year occupying his
past relation to the convention, was
plnlnly one of the most popular and
most sought-after peiXins in St. Louis.
"What do you think of the ticket?"
"Capital; capital. It couldn't be bet
ter. It waH named directly by the peo
ple, which ought to be sufficient proof
of its popularity. McKlnley everybody
knows; and Hobart, I hear from those
who know lilm Intimately, is a very able
and admirable man. Everywhere we
went, we heard only expressions of
praise for nominees and platform."
"Then you don't fear the silver bolt?"
NO FEAR AS TO SILVER.
"Not n particle. You know I have al
ways been inclined to favor doing some
thing within reason for our silver-loving
friends; but by their course at
Washington last winter in holding up
thu Dingloy bill because it did not con
tain a clause providing for tho free
coinage, at 10 to 1, of the wholo world's
silver, nnd agnln by tnolr d.ilnnr nt
tilude at St. Louis, where thoy practic
ally demanded all or none, they appear
to have caused a reaction in which they
themselves are the chief sufferers. This
subject wa9 very carefully considered
by the delegates, who wore In the mn'n
representative men with a sincere wlBh
to do only what was best for the Inter
ests of the party and tho country a3 a
whole; nnd after they had conferred
with each other and taken due notice
of each other's views and suggestions.
It was the decision of an overwhelm
ing majority, representing not simply
the east, but all sections of the country
with the single exception of the three
or four silver-mining states, that nder
present conditions It would be unwise
to do more for stiver than to agree to
keep as much of it in circulation ns can
successfully be maintained at parity
with gold, gold being retained as the
standard. This, It should be noted,
does not Involve any change from pres
ent conditions. It introduces no new
factors. It simply means that the mone
tary system under which we exper
ienced great prosperity for nearly fif
teen years, and under which we should
havo continued to prosper had not the
Democrats treated us to a panic-breeding
tariff, will be maintained without
alteration until such time as the ex
periment of silver's complete, rfchahlllu
tlon can be attempted under the guar
antee of powerful International co
operation. No, I don't think the bolt
of Mr. Teller and his colleagues will
do material damage. It seemed to be
the general opinion at St. Louis that
for every Republican vote thus lost, we
could safely count on a gain of two
votes from men who have hitherto been
Democrats. Especially was this thought
to be true if the Chicago convention
shall declare flatly for free coinage.
Besides, the Chicago convention cannot
without stultification do otherwise than
declare for free trade. And there are
thousands of Democrats, and also
thousands of sliver Republicans who,
in this campaign at least, will put Pro
tection first and vote for Protection's
champion, William McKlnley."
The Chicago Times-Herald of lust
Friday contained an excellent portrait
of Mr. Connell. who was spoken of by
that paper as one of the prominent
members of the Pennsylvania delegation.
DESIGNS ON THE SAFE.
Ex -Theatrical Manager Waite Arrested
fcr Orcafcg the Strong Eox in the Ar
lingtonHis Version of I he Case.
XV. C. Walte, ex-ma.nager of the Bubb
Comedy company and nt one time man
ager of Music Hall, Wllkes-Barre, was
locked up at 1 o'clock yesterday morn
ing for robbing the safe of Grimes &
Flannery's hotel. The Arlington, cor
ner of Franklin avenue and Spruce
s'lrct t.
Friday night Waite registered at the
hotel and Saturday afternoon paid his
bill with the presumed intention of de
parting. He however lingered about
the plac?. drinking quite heavily and
at midnight when 'Proprietor Grimes
prc-poired to lock up, Walte was still
loafing about the ofllce. Mr. Grimes
left him alone In the office while he went
to the barroom to gf it thj cash from the
register and had been gone but half a
minute when ho heard the jingle of
nicmey falling on the floor.
Looking Into the office he discovered
Waite c rouched In front of the sufe ex
tracting money from the cash drawer.
At the appearance of the proprietor,
Waite bolted out of the hotel and down
Spruce street to Mlfllin avenue. Mr.
Grimes followed and overtook him on
Miilllu avenue. Walte fell and Grimes
fell on top of him and they were having
a hand to hand struggle when Patrol
man Goerlltz attracted by Grimes' first
shouts came u; with them and took
Waite into custody. Two twenty dol
lar bills and a five dollar bill were
found on Waite's ierson when he was
searched at the station house. Tills
upon Invstlgatlon proved 'to be the
amount missing from the safe. At the
hearing In police court he was com
mitted to the county jail by Alderman
Howe In default of $500 ball.
Waite firmly denies his guilt and ex
plains the. matter this way: After
Urlm?s had gone to the barroom he
determined to go to bed and went behind
the counter to get the key to his room
No. 21. Instead ho got the key for No.
29 und upon going back the second time
to make the exchange allowed the key
to drop to the floor. He was in the act
of picking it up from beeldo the safe,
where it had fullen, when. Grimes came
upon him with a base ball bat.
Not being able to understand this ac
tion on the part of th proprietor and
not relishing the Idea of having his
brains knocked out he ran into the
fired and when lie was pursued con
tinued his flight. He further claims
that he bad $70 when he came to th' city
Friday and that the $15 taken from him

NOT DEAD BY ANY MEANS.
Citizens' Street Knilway Company Is
in the Business to Stay.
Select council's set back to the Citi
zen's Street Railway ordinance does not
mean the death of the measure by any
means. Ex-Mayor Connell, president of
the new company, upon his return from
the St Louis convention, authorized
the statement that council's adverse ac
tion will not deter the new company in
the least from pushing its project to a
successful consummation.

IT WAS A NIGHT OF
TERROR ON THE FLATS
Number of Brawli Occurred There
Saturday Night.
ONE MAN STABBED AND KICKED
Was Taken to the Lackawanna Hos
pital, Where It Was Fonnd That
His Injuries Were Not of a Serious
Nature and He Went Home After
They Were Dressed.
Several places on the Soth Side, In
cluding the steel mill, paid on Saturday
and at night the foreign element which
congregates on Washington avenue
flats caused a veritable reign of terror.
There was a constant suceeslon of
brawls of a more or loss serious nature
extending in time from about 9 o'clock
until well on in the Sabbath morning
hours and In place from the foot of the
hill to tho silk mill.
The police force for that territory
which consisted of ratrolman I. F.
Jones was powerless to preserve order
for as soon ns one disturbance wa3
quelled another would break out.
Battered faces and broken heads wore
common and one affair which was of a
quite serious nature came to notice be
cause of the fact that the victim was
taken to the Lackawanna hospital.
He Is Sandio Dokeskle, a middle-aged
mnrircd main residing at 923 South
Washington avenue. He was on his
way home in an intoxicated condition
when he encountered a gang of his fellow-countrymen
at the corner of Wash
ington avenue and Maplv street and got
into a wrangle.
The crowd pitched on to him and
during the melee he received a stab
wound in the right side In the region of
the lower libs. He was also knocked
down and kicked In tho head nnd face,
and remurkable to say he got up after
the ruffians had left him for dead, went
to a nearby saloon where he drank a
glass of beer and then walked three
blocks to his home.
SENT TO THE HOSPITAL.
Patrolman Jones who heard of tho af
fray found him. then shortly afterwards
and had him conveyed to the Lacka
wanna hospital where his wounds were
dressed.
Tho knife thrust was found to lie not
of a Sr.rlou9 nature so after he had been
patched up he was taken back to his
home In the ambulance.
He could not identify any of his as
FAilants us he wus drunk and the place
where the assault occurred is dark.
Many disorderly occurrences huve of
luite been reported from this locality
particularly about Control Turk gurden.
One week ago Saturday night an
atrocity occurred ju.st outside the park
which may result in the death of a girl
and the imprisonment of ia. dozen or
more mien.
FIERCE FIRE AT DURYEA.

Think.
Come in and get these Pillow Sham
Holders we are now offering for 19c
each, and then you'll have lots of time
to congratulate yourself. They are as
good as those sold for 30c or 40c.
We lose money, of course, but then
Have you one of those little folding
work tables? They are always ready
when you want them, and may be
tucked out of the way when you don't.
For $1 we sell an excellent table
strong and durable. For $1.25, one
not a whit stronger, but just a little
bit finer.
