MR. CONNELL ENTERS
RACE FOR CONGRESS
Aa Authoritative Aaoouncemeat Made
That He Is a Candidate.
CALLS ON FRIENDS FOR THEIR AID
The People, He Savs, Know Him and
His Record, 'and it They Shall
Honor Him with a Nomination and
an Election, He Will Serve Them to
the Beit of His Ability. '
An authoritative announcement was
yesterday made by William Connell
of his candidacy for congress. He said:
"I will be a candidate for congress
subject to the decision of the Kepubll
can convention." Mr. Connell added:
"I do not think that It Is necessary
for me at this time to make any decla
ration of principles or any promises
as to my olnclal conduct If elected. I
have lived In this district almost since
my boyhood. The people know me and
my record, and If they should honor me
with a nomination and an election I
will be g!ud to serv them to the best
of my ability. I have been solicited by
many Republicans to allow the use of
my name for this office. I have con
cluded after mature deliberation to ac
cept, and I trust that my friends will
stand by me In the convention, at the
campaign which follows it, and In the
election."
A DEMOCRATIC VIEW.
Last evening's Times, the Democratic
organ of the county, in discussing Mr.
Connell's announcement, said: "For
several months past he has been gen
erally looked upon as the logical can
didate of the Republican party for con
gress. The only reason for delaying
the decision until this time was the
indisposition of Mr. Connell to accept
public office. This having been over
come, Mr. Connell may be expected to
enter on the campaign with the vigor
which characterises him In business as
well as in politics.
"Mr. Connell's announcement practic
ally settles the congressional question
so far as the Republican party Is con
cerned. The names of several other
gentlemen have been mentioned in con
nctlon with the oillce, but none of them
has shown any disposition to be aggres
sive and the probabilities are strong
that no other name than that of Mr.
Connell will be mentioned in the Re
publican congressional convention.
"Mr. Connell Is 69 years of age. He
Is In perfect health and as active and
vigorous as most men of 40. He has
never been an office-seeker. Years ago
he took an active Interest In educa
tional subjects and served two terms as
a member of the board of school con
trol. Kxcept for this und a number of
honorary places, held by appointment,
he has remained In private llfo. But he
has always taken an active Interest in
politics, never allowing an opportunity
to pass to aid a friend."
AN INDEPENDENT VIEW.
The Truth last evening- said: "In be
coming a candidate for congress, sub
ject to the decision of the Republican
nominating convention, Mr. Connell
undoubtedly subordinates his personal
Inclinations to the wishes of his
friends who are anxious to see him
round out his busy career In the legis
lative hulls of the nation. Mr. Connell
Is a man of the people. He has tolled
from the ranks to his present pre-eminence
as an employer of labor. His in
terest In this community Is a direct and
personal one, and It can be said, with
out prejudice to any other candidate,
that this section would have In him a
sterling representative at the nation's
capital."
RATIFICATIowEETING.
Reports of Committees Heard at Last
Night's Meeting of Central Republi
can Club What Is Being Don e.
Another long stride was taken last
evening toward perfecting arrange
ments for the grand ratification meet
ing which the Republicans of Scranton
intend to hold one week from next
Saturday night. At the Central Re
publican club rooms the various com
mittees reported progress and ad
journed to meet Monday evening.
H. K. Paine, of the committee on
speakers, said he was endeavoring to
secure the presence of ex-Governor
Foraker or General Grosvenor. Hon.
Garret A. Hobart, the Republican can
didate for vice-president, had written
that he could not come.
Frank W. Martin, of the committee
on fireworks, reported estimates, and
was instructed to expend $160 on ro
man candles and red tire. M. W. Low
ry, of the committee on torches, was

anese lanterns, with sticks and han
dles; also 100 square Illuminated ban
ners. Harry Hopewell, of the commit
tee on transparencies, was authorized
to prepare ut least a score.
For the bicycle committee Dolph
Atherton announced that he had des
ignated E. K. Chase, H. W. Kingsbury,
Charles M. Can-. John R. Atherton,
Herbert Hall, C. H. Derby, Willis Kern
merer and Charles E. Daniels to assist
hlin In securing a generous represen
tation of Republican wheelmen In line
during the parude and it was decided to
ask the mayor to have the streets on
the line of march kept clear of people
so that the wheelmen might have room
to execute picturesque evolutions.
Colonel E. II. Ripple announced that
marching clubs had already been or
were formed in the Eighth, Ninth,
Thirteenth, Sixteenth and Seventeenth
wards, and that a club will also be
formed from among the colored Repub
licans of the city. Charles E. Olver,
representing the West Side Republican
league, said that organization was pre
paring to cooperate enthusiastically,
and W. S. Mears, from the West Side
Central Republican club, gave similar
assurances.
Upon motion of Secretary Millar an
invitation was extended to all Repub
licans not connected with club organi
zations to fall in line on the night of
the ratification with the members of the
Central Republican club. During the
week an additional canvass will be
mude for funds. It is hoped 'to have
2,000 men in line.
WERE ELEVEN MONTHS MARRIED.
RU-hnrd Jones Then Took an Ocean
Voyage dud Has Not Returned.
Judge Archbald granted a divorce
yesterday to Mary A. Jones from her
husband Richard P. Jones, to whom
she was married on Nov. 13, 1890, by
Rev. T. C. Edwards, of Kingston.
They lived together In Bellevue un

property which was left to him by the
death of a relative. He m.ty be looking
after It yet for all she knows, but he
has never contributed to her support
and she has been forced to earn her own
living. It Is not a case like that of
Enoch Arden, however, as she has
heard that he Is alive and well on the
other side of the Atlantic.

His - NerkHis Version of the
Shooting.
Crescenzo Merolo will this morning
with his life pay his penalty to the law
for the murder of Emanuel Loro at Old
Forge on Feb. 17, 1S94. He will be
hanged In the county jail about 10
o'clock In the presence of not more than
fifty persons. Sheriff demons has been
besieged for the last week by those who
want to see the execution, but they
have been uniformly refused the cov
eted pasteboard that would admit them
within the portals of the jail this morn
ing. The door will be closed at 9 o'clock
and thereafter no one will be admitted.
Sheriff demons has refused to state at
what hour the execution will take place
bdt it will probably be ubout 10
o'clock.
Merolo knows nothing of Monday's
attempt to secure a respite for him. He
is cool and collected and entirely re
signed to die. During a good portion of
yesterday two priests. Rev. Dominic
I'eruzzl, of Hazleton and Rev. Dominic
Landio were with him and he repeated
ly assured them that he had no fear to
die and would go to the scaffold without
a fear. His confession wus heard yes
terday by Father l'eruzzl and when
the priests were not with him the con
demned man spent his time In prayer
and meditation. Ills spiritual advisers
say that he has strong religious convic
tions and a firm belief In the efficacy of
prayer. For a week he has been ab
staining und has used food very spar
ingly. ARRANGEMENTS FOR TODAY.
From midnight he will abstain from
eating or drinking anything. At 6.30
this morning Rev. Father Landro will
read mass In a chapel at St. Joseph's
Foundling home and during the half
hour It will last Merolo will be offering
up his prayers in his cell. At 7.30 the
priests will be at the jail and Merolo's
confession will be heard again. Mass
will then be celebrated in his cell and
he will receive holy communion. Yes
terday morning, at the request of Me
rolo, Father Landro offered up a mass
for the repose of the soul of the mur
dered Loro.
In talking with the condemned man
yesterday afternoon Father Peruzzl
was moved to tears and Merolo chided
him gently and told him not to cry for
him; that lie was willing to die and
atone for his offense against the law.
He would willingly give his lust drop
of blood to bring Loro back to life, but
that being an Impossibility he hud no
word of complaint against the law that
requires his life for his transgression.
During conversations with the clergy
men, Merolo made the following state
ment concerning the shooting, which
was related to a Tribune reporter yes
terday by Father Peruzzl:
MEKOLO'B VERSION OF IT.
"I had formed no Intention of killing
Loro, but my hcurt was bud when I
met him and the deed wus done, I had
some trouble with Loro a week or to
before and my friends told me that
he was going to kill me and they urged
me to be prepared for him and not allow
him to get any advantage over me.
On the Hunduy of the shooting- I was
drunk when I met him. I hiul just been
warned about him and what ho would
do to me and the sight of him Inflamed
me. We spoke harshly and I drew
my revolver and fired the three shots
that killed him. Five minutes later I
