REPUBLICANS CAUCUSED.
.Hut luist Night In th(! Ollieu ol'Wiido
jl. Finn.
The IlpptibllcaiiB ot select council
cuiKiissed lust night In the ulllco of Se
lectman Wutle M. Finn In the Will
lams building. Absolute set'toey was
maintained ns to the details of the pro
ceedings, but the object wus to can
vass the prevailing sentiment of the
inetnlieis lieluie going Into Joint caucus
with their Hepubllcnn brethren of the
lower branch before Monday's reor
ganization. The cunclldacles of City
Solicitor Torrey tiiul City Ungluo.er I'lill
lips were discussed and the nppropiia
tlon iiidlnance, which Is now In com
mittee, cnine up for some considera
tion. Some slight amendments to the
ordinance were suggested and tnny be
presented at tomorrow night's councll
mntilc session.
The Democrats of common council
were to have cauctissed last night but
the meeting was postponed on account
of the Injury tti Councilman Noone,
who Is In the Mo.-;cs Taylor hospital.
Mr. Noone'.s Inability to attend was
not directly ascribed ns the cause of
the postponement but that was the rea
son, however, and the fact Is an evi
dence of the power wielded by the mem
ber liorii the Eighteenth hi the Demo
cratic camp.
Yesterday did not witness a positive
agreement on a time lor holding the
caucus but It will take place Friday
or Satuidoy night.
All manner of speculation ban been
rife concerning the probable candidate
for the presidency but there has been
no need for any Uncertainty, Patl lei:
J. Nealls, of the Fourteenth ward, will
be the man and Hie only candidate,
unless the present effbrln to swing the
malcontents Into line, and to parcel out
committee promises go wide of the
mark. Mr. Nealls was president In
IM'I. Ho Is the choice of the Demo
cratic majority, or, rather, of the ma
jority of the Democrats now, but Mr.
Ciricr, the present chairman, mid Mr.
Xoone want to know a thing or two
before they endcrsc the cx-prosldcnt.
No one, not even the. common coun
cilnien and candidates themselves are
certain of the teal status of the canvass
for clerk.
LARGE STORE WAS THRONGED.
About 7,000 Persons Attended the.

useful prizes Of furniture, household
utensils, etc. The winners will be an
nounced later.
A few words as regards the depart
ments of this magnificent store, In
which everything necessary to furnish
a house, Including a line men and boys'
clothing department, can be found, will
not be amiss here. The (list lloor,
main room, is entirely devoted to the
display of line furniture. Jn the rear a
new addition has recently been made
to this already large building, In which
is found the clothing department. A
line display of spring goods is help

the proprietors call "Koelterdom, "where
the most complete display of locking
chairs In the city Is on exhibition. In

The enterprising proprietors of the
Kconomy Furniture store have cause to
feel proud of yesterday's opening. That
many of the visitors will call again

Some Spirited Statements on Cross
i:amination.
The great Interest the case of Miss
Anna Dickinson ugnlnsl those who
caused hei lncarcerillon In Danville In
sane asylum has aroused was shown by
the large attendance at the morning
and afternoon sessions, of the court
yesterday. In the moinltig the Super
ior court room was ciowded and In the
afternoon when the trial was trans
feiretl to the laiger. main court room
eery seat was taken. At both ses
sions u large number of those present
weie women and as may be supposed
Miss Anna Dickinson was to them the
one great attraction in the court room.
She was the magnet that attracted
their eyes.
The entire morning was tnken up
with Iter examination In chief and from
2 until I o'clock In the afternoon she
was subjected to a rigid eross-exniulna-

tion by Attorney A. A. Vosburg. Miss
Dickinson, as on the former trinl, pray
ed herself n remarkable witness and
at times it required all of Mr. Vosburg's
coolness and self-possession to success
fully cone with the keen .direwd wo
man from whom he was endeavoring to
wring admissions of a more or
less damaging nature. Miss lJIck-ins-on
was at times impassion
ed and dramatic but she nev
er for an Instant lost her tem
per or her ability to use the Fngllsh
lnngunge with a conciseness and exact
ness that won the admiration of all
who hear her. Carelessness In the
choice uf words to express the exact
meaning intended is evidently with her
an abomination. She gave numerous
evidences of this yesterday by asking
the attorneys to say Just what they
meant when some hastily formed sen
tence with loose-fitting words were
hurled at her.
At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
plaintiff rested, Miss Dickinson being
the only witness called. Attorney C.
W. Dawson opened for the defense and
said they proposed to prove that Miss
Dickinson was not misused when taken
to the Danville Insane asylum but on
the contrary was tieated with every
kindness and consideration, They

would also show, he said, that Miss
Plcklnnon was lnnaue when Hhe wus
taken to the asylum and that her in
carceration was necessary.
After the opening of the morning ses
sion Mr. Vosbnig began by adding the
further objection to the cvldence.Kought
to be elicited the day before, that as
there was no evidence yet of any In
jury, It was Improper to olfer evidence
of the results of an Injury. Conn
ruled that that matter rested entirely
at the court's discretion. Mr. Hodge
tried to have Miss Dickinson state In
full her earnings from 1S73 to 1SSC but
court xuHtulned -Mr. Vosburg's objection
that the petlod was too remote to be
relevant.
The matter of Miss Dickinson's em
ployment by the Itepubllcun campaign
committee In IShS wus then tnken up.
In answer to Mr. Hodge's question sh
paid the contract with the committee
was an oral one. It was made with
Mr. Clarkson, vice-chairman of tho
connuinlttee, Mr. Dibble und others.
The contract was for thirty speeches
at the rate of $12". a night with nil
expenses for herself and attendant,
which amounted altogether to Jl.TSO.
In case of Harrison's election .she wiih
to receive a bonus of $l,2i"Ci. It was
further ugreed that she was to be per
mitted to speak In the- Metropolitan
Opera house, New York, and she was
assured of protection agnlur.t unjust
treatment at the hands of tho Now
York Tribune,
, In uccoiduuce with this contract she
spoke ten nlghls In Inttlann, throe
nights In Mlchlgnn, and three nights In
New York. For this she ' wns paid
something less than $1,000. She after
wards claimed the $1,250 bonus, but
the cominlttee would not allow It. She
Instituted suit to recover, and this suit
v. tin pending In 1S!)I, the lime of the
affair which occasioned the present
trial.
She afterwatds had Interviews with
editors of various leading newspapers
and was engaged by tho New York
World to do regular work lit her own
price. Dr. Hopewell, of the New York
Herald, also hid for her services. Mr.
Chase, mnnager of the Hooth and Har
rett conipany, had several conversa
tions with her regarding the purchase
of "Aurslla," which she had wtltten for
John MeCtlllough. The proposition
was to go to California nnd Australia
and produce the piece and to play In
It herself. She also had offers to write
syndicate articles for Mr. Uok, for the
Ladles' Hume Journal, for Outing, the
Cosmopolitan magazine and various
iithei publications. These offers were
held In abeyance during 1SSS and 1.SS9
and IS'iO.
In answer to the question as to
whether she had received offers from
political parties other than the Hepubll
cnn. she answered: "If the Women's
Christian Teinperance union and Its
adjunct Is it species of senil-polltlcal
putty, yen."
DAY OF lIKIt AMM'JST.
On Feb. 25, 18'JI, the day of her arrest
by the defendants, there were negotia
tions pending between her and Colonel
Cockcrlll, of the New Yoilc World, for
newspaper writing: with -Mr. Slelghton
for lectures under the auspices of the
Chicago Lyceum bureau, and the other
newspaper and stage engagements
enumerated before.
At this juncture Miss Dickinson, In
answer to questions by Mr. Hodge,
branched off Into a description of the
occurrences of Feb. 2.", 1SH1. At that
time the occupants of the Dickinson
home In West I'lttston were herself,
Susan 15. Dickinson and a house maid
named Martha Orliilths. She was In
her own room on the corner of the sec
ond lloor. A great mass of papers, let
teis, newspaper clippings and the like,
some of winch had been accumulating
for twenty-live years, were scattered
about the room, and she was engaged
In nssortlng them, selecting such as
she intended to carry witli her, and
packing the rest away in boxes.
After describing In minute detail the
size and arrangements of the room,
Miss Dickinson went on to say that on
the morning in question she arose early,
took a hath, and for ease and comfort
in the work she was engaged in, she
donned only her underclothing, a suit
able wrapper and slippers. She worked
In the room on the papers all through
the moinlng and until 1 o'clock.
DOOK HUURT OlMJN.
In the neighborhood of 1 o'clock there
was a slight tap on the door. She
askei1, "Who Is there?" A voice said,
"It A 1, Dr. John Hellman; can I see
you?" "No," she answered, "I can not
see you; I am engaged." Thete was
then some murmuring of voices, indi
cating for the first time to Miss Dick
inson that there were more than one
poison outside. Without any warning,
a body of men put their aims or shoul
ders to the door and burst it In. She
started to her feet in an instant and
cried: "Infamous: who Is responsible
for this outrage?" George Thompson

That Cunilrmiiil the Spuok Story
All a Delusion.
Joseph Cites Kunelly died Saturday
night. Match 20, at n hotel on l.u.rn

prietor and since last Friday night

James Durklu, of l.useiue street Mr.
Din kin was In the house dining last
Friday night wlleti he saw the shade of
F.nnelly come toward him and a cold
clammy hand touched his brow.
Dm kin's story wus apparently home
out by' the" fact that several people
buve seen "lights moving abutlt in the
upper story of the house where l'lnnelly
lived and died. Humor said that
Thomas Cm roll, who owns the build
ing, had also seen the ghost.
HAD MADIO SKVKUAl. HF.TS.
The return of the canny creature to
earth was well explained. Knnollv, It
,vas k'uiwn, had made several large
bets on the Corbett-Fltzslinmons' mill
and v, ben his body hud been lowered
Into the grave a search for the money
was made but It could not be found.
Uobbery a as hinted at and It 13 said
that the loss of the money so preyed
upon Knnelly's mind that his spirit
could nut rest In that bourne I'rDin
whence no traveler has returned up to
this time and ?o he came back to haunt
aim to startle poor Jim Durklu. I
Such has been the condition of af
fairs since 'Friday night and Thomas
Carroll, the landowner, was said to
have offered $100 to t.ny person or per
sons who would remain over ni::ht in
the niferted npartmctiU. This offer
was taken up bj Thomas Williams, of
Washburn sreet, William Thomas,
butcher, of Hampton street; William
Prosser, of North' Main avenue, and
one. Air. Knight. The gentlemen named
had arranged to stay in the house lr.st
night. All were convinced that there
was a shost but they wanted to hold
11 tete-a-tete with him just to show the
rigidity of their nerves.
It was all an Illusion.
A Tribune reporter, with a deep
rooted determination In his soul to pass
the night with the ghost watchers, and,
If possible, have an Interview with the
ghost, went back to the hotel building
last night.
IS A T.AUCK lllTILDINfi.
It is a big three-story structure at
the corner of Luzerne and Sixteenth
stioets. On the west part Is a confec
tionery store, and on the corner proper
Is the saloon, heavily barred on the
outside of the windows, and withal,
just the place for a ghost.
Upon enterlnt;'. three men were seen
before the bar with three divisions of
spirits before them, and waiting to
serve out more of the kind was Thomas
Carroll himself.
Carroll knew nothing about the ghost
or the $!00 -wager which lie was sup
posed to have made.
Accoidlug to Carroll, -Kunelly died
from a peculiar disease, and whisky
was the only thlnif, said the doctor,
that would delay Inevitable death.
A few hours before Kunelly died,
James Durklu came Into the hotel
Naturally, being a friend of Kunelly,
Durklu wanled to see him once more,
so he started up the stairs with that
humane intent. There was no ono with
Kunelly at the time, and on the stand
by the dying man's bedside was a
quart of whisky, Durklu saw It and
argued to himself Hint Kunelly
couldn't use It anyhow, he was going
to leave the world, and It was no use
to let the whisky go to waste.
So he drank it.
Then lie thought he saw the ghost
of Kunelly. Anyhow, he tumbled down
the steps and rushed out, spreading
the ghost story.
The explanations of the light moving
about Is that after Kunelly was buried
Mr. Carroll showed some prospective
tenants through the rooms. He had a
mining lamp lb bis hand while he was
doing it. The rest of the rumor was
budded upon this foundation. As Car
roll said last night: "Kunelly Is dead;
let him rest In peace."
