Version of the Allnlr.
Easton, Pn.. Sept. 12,-Genernl Frank
Reeder late last night save out the
following statement of his side of tho
disagreement with Governor Hastings,
which led to his resignation. Tho gen
eral refused to make conynent of any
kind on what he had prepared. He
says:
"I have waited since laBt 'Wednes
day, the eighth Inst., for Governor
Hastings to give to tho public the rea
sons which actuated him In asking for
my resignation as secretary of the
commonwealth. This he has failed to
do. I, therefore, feel entirely Justified
In presenting to the public a full and
complete narrative of what occurred in
the Interviews which I had with the
governor's private secretary, and the
governor himself. This I shall do with
out nny comments of any ?ort, leaving
it for the people of the state to Inter
pret these interviews for themselves.
"On the evening of Sept. 9, tho gov
ernor's private secretary, Lewis E.
Beltler, called at my house in Easton,
and, with all of the thoughtful consid
eration and courtesy possible In the
performance of an embarrassing duty,
he presented to me the governor's curt
demand for my resignation, which has
already been given to the press. I at
once expressed my willingness to com
ply with the governor's desire, and
stated to Sir. Beltler that I would, af
ter giving my resignation, go to Har
rlsburg by the first train In order that
I might have from tho governor some
explanation of the reasons which led
to his action. To this Mr. Beltler re
plied that he was instructed by Gov
ernor Hastings to Inform me that the
governor declined to see me or to af
ford me any Interview. I said: 'You
must be mistaken as to your instruc
tions, as Governor Hastings is a gen
tleman, and I am a gentleman, and no
gentleman declines to receive another
gentleman.' He said: 'I can only re
peat the govprnor's Instructions to me.'
I said: 'There was but one Interpre
tation to be put upon such instructions,
tyhlch was that the governor meant
to decline all further acquaintance with
ne, but that I would go to Harrlsburg,
notwithstanding, and put the gover
nor tothe necessity of declining to re
ceive me.'
"The next mornlne I took the train
for Harrlsburg, Mr. Beltler being on
the same train. Before reaching Head
ing, Mr. Beltler received a telegram re
questing him to join the governor at
Philadelphia, coming directly to that
city from Reading. Shortly after my
arrival at Harrlsburg I was called to
the telephone In the executive office
and was Informed by Mr. Beltler, who
was at the Philadelphia end of the
wire, that he had been requested by
Governor Hastings to say to me that
he (Beltler) had misunderstood his In
structions relative to the governor's In
tention to deny me an Interview, and
that he had been directed by the gov
ernor to see me personally and arrange
for an interview at such time and place
as would be agreeable and convenient
to the irovernor and myself, and that
Mr. Beltler would meet me at Reading
at 6 o'clock that evening for that pur
pose. At our meeting, Mr. Beltler re
peated that the governor had dis
claimed having given him any instruc
tllns to tell me that an Interview would
be denied and an interview was ac
cordingly arranged for the following
Tuesday. Sept. S, at Harrlsburg.
"On that day, between 12 and 1
o'clock, I presented myself at the ex
ecutive department, and an interview
took place.
"I said: 'Governor, T desire to pre
face what I have to say by conceding
your clear right, not only to ask for my
resignation at your own pleasure, but
also the broader right of removing or
dismissing mo from your calilnot with
out assigning, or indeed having, any
cause for such action. You had this
right if you did not like the cut of my
clothes or If I was personally disagree
able to you If you wished to replace
'me with somebody preferred over me,
or for any other whim or reason
whether logical or otherwise. In rec
ognition of this rlcht. I at once re
sponded to your request by a tender of
my resignation; but, I feel, now that
my reslsnatlon is In your hands, that
I have- the right to ask you to Inform
me oi your reasons ror this step.' The
governor replied: 'General Reeder, I
expect this, will bo the most painful In
tervlew that I have ever had, but I

propose t6 ho perfectly frank and can

The governor then stated, General
Reeder says, his reasons for wishing
his resignation, which .were, briefly,
that General Boeder had apparently
been drifting away from him and had
not exhibited tho cordiality of former
days; that General Reeder had de
clined to express to newspaper men nn
opinion of tho merits of tho contro
versy between Governor Hnstlngs anil
Senator Quay nt the time Senntor Quay
gave out his celebrated interview. The
governor said:
" 'I am also told that you were tho
author of tho platform adopted by the
recent Republican state convention, In
which I and my administration re
ceived slight notice, only in a post
script. I nm also told that in the Re
publican convention of your own coun
ty of Northampton, a resolution was
introduced endorsing my administra
tion, and that you made a motion,
which was carried, to lay that resolu
tion of endorsement upon the table.
"I am Informed by four gentlemen
that you had told each of them that.
In tho event of another political con
test between Senator Quay and my-st-lf.
you would resign your ofllce ns
secretary of tho commonwealth nnd
Join your fortune with Senator Quay
In that contest.'
"The governor complained because
General Reeder did not give him zenl
ous assistance In tho work connected
with the capitol building commission.
REGARDING THE BOND.
"The governor said: 'I also felt that
I have tho right to complain that you
should have been one of the signers
to a bond Indemnifying the state treas
urer for disbursements made by hltn
to extra employes borne on the roll of
the legislature, and which were not
authorized by law. Such a bond. If it
meant nnythlng, meant to guarantee
my action upon an appropriation for
the pny of those employes. As to some
of them, as you know, I had already
committed myself nt the opening of the
session, nnd consented to their em
ployment, and the men were employed
with my approval. As to them, It was
not necessnry that anybody should
guarantee that I would keep my prom
ise. As to the others, those to whose
employment I had not given my ap
pioval, It was nn undertaking to guar
antee my official approval of the em
ployment of persons for wnom there
was no legal warrant, and I feel that
no member of my cabinet had any
right to take any such a position so
Inconsistent with the duties which he
owes me as one of my ofllclnl ad
visers.' v
"After the governor had finished,
without any Interruption from me, I
raid: 'Governor, I will endeavor to
take up your objections In the same
older In which you have stated them,
end offer nn explanation to each one
In Its order: First, ns to my failure to
rpeak through the newspapers with
reference to the Interview between
your&elf nnd the two senators, let me
tccall to you tho facts. Your lnter
iew with Senator Quay and Senator
Penrose took place on the last Satur
day in June. After that Interview you
were kind enough to say to me some
very complimentary things about my
loyalty to you. In the afternoon you
went to Mount Gretna and I went to
my home In Easton, not seeing yqu
again until Monday noon. In tho ln
tr.rval, In the Sunday morning news
papers, there was published Senntor
QuaV's announcement of his candidacy
for the United States senate, In the
course of which he mado reference to
his Interview with you the preceding
oay. On Monday you prepared your
Interview for the newspapers, by which
any Issue arising between you as to
the character of ihe Interview was
fully raised. After you had prepared
that statement for the press, you spoke
to me concerning your Interview with
the senators, and requested of me that
I should not make any statement as
to what had taken place to anybody,
not even to your attorney general,
Mr. McCormlck. Tuesday morning In
the Philadelphia papers your state
ment appeared. That same morning
ou went to the camp at Mount Gretna
and I accompanied you. On our re
turn In the evening, I was asked by a
reporter If I would give him my ver
sion of what occurred between you and
the two United States senators. Mind
ful of your Injunction of secrecy, I de
clined to make any statement. Since
the conversation In which you request
ed me not to divulge what had oc
curred between you and the senators,
the subject has never been mentioned
between us, and I have considered
from that day to this that my lips have
been sealed by your own request, and
the only reason why I have not spoken
W'is because I thought I was obeying
your expressed request, and I submit
to you that there was nothing Jn my
s-lencc that was not In entire accord
with your own expressed wish.'
HAD FORGOTTEN IT.
"The governor hero said: 'I believe
I do remember some such conversation
between us, but I had forgotten It.'
"I then resumed: 'As to the Republi
can platform, I wish to say that I was
not the author of that platform. By
request. I prepared a number of planks
for the platform, some of which were
adopted without change, some of which
were changed In slight particulars, and
others of which were modified out of
all recognition. Some of the planks ap
pearing In the platform were not pre
pared by mo at nil. Among the plunks
which I prepared and submitted was
one which endorsed In the strongest
terms which I could frame, your ad
ministration ns governor of the com
monwealth. On Tuesday tifternoon a
conference of a number of gentlemen
was held, at which there was submit
ted the sheet of paper, together with
a large mass of material prepared by
other gentlemen. When my plank en
dorsing you was read, the crlticlnn was
immediately made that 1 had made tho
plank endorsing you far stronger than
my plank endorsing tho president 'f the
United States and tho senators. My
material was left In the hands of tho
organization, and the following day I
saw what purported to be tho complet
ed platform, In which my plank of en
dorsement of the state administration
did not appear, but was replaced by a
substitute which I thought fell short
of what was (Jue as a recognition of
your ofllclnl set vice. I at once com
plained of this, and, with the aid of
Colonel Gllkeson, succeeded In having
another conference held, which' met af
ter midnight on Wednesday end a third
plank was prepared, which was moro
satisfactory to me than the one of whlsh
I complained, and Its position In tho
platform was chanced from the end
thereof to a place Immediately follow,
lng the plank endorsing the national
administration, and the platform as
adopted by the convention contained
tho changed plank In Its changed posl
tlon. In giving out the platforms to the
press, the next day, by somn mistake
for which I have no responsibility nnd
as to which 1 havo no Information, the
original platform fell Into tho hands
of th agent of the A isoclated Press
and was telegraphed over tho 'Unto. I
submit, therefore, that my action with
reference to your endorsement by the
Btate convention Is open to no criticism
whatever.
"The governor here utatcd: 'I did
not know tho circumstances which you
havo given mo.'
DECLINED SUGAR COATING.
"I went on: 'As to the Republican
convention, In my own county, I want
to sny that the' platform as adopted
chained a resolution which endorsed
your administration. An amendment
to the report of the committee wns
offered from the floor, which amend
ment consisted of three resolutions, the
first of which endorsed you strongly,
and especially endorsed you for your
vetoes of certain acts of the legisla
ture. The second resolution condemned
tlje legislature In very drastic terms,
nnd the third condemned by name the
Republican senator from Northampton
county. I opposed the amendments and
In the course of my remarks stated
that no man In Pennsylvania knew
better than I how fully you deserved
the strongest terms of commendation
which could be expressed by any con
vention; that no man knew better
than I the value to the state of your
public services; and that no one could
go further than I In favoring any
strong expression of commendation or
endorsement of your public acts; and
that, If tho resolution commending you
stood alone. It would meet my hearty
and zealous approval; but that the
purpose of tho authors of this amend
ment was to disorganize tho Republi
can convention then In session, and
that the resolution commending you
will bo simply the sugar coating upon
the pill, and was Intended to operate
ns a gag for, me, and I closed my
speech by moving to lay the amend
ment on the table.
"Tho scheme of the persons who had
offered this resolution wns simply to
disorganize the convention, and It was
not possible to divide the amendment
as submitted so ns to permit action on
the resolution of endorsement alone
without throwing the entire subject
open to debate on the" floor.
"As to tho Information which has
been brought to you by four gentle
men relative to my having told them
that I would. In the event of any fur
ther fight between you and Senator
Quay, resign my office as secretary of
the commonwealth and join Senator
Quay's force, I have only one word
to sny your Informants told you that
which wns absolutely false. The only
thing ever said by me which could bo
tortured Into any approach to any such
statement was a remark -made by mo
to Dave Martin at the Neshamlny park
encampment, In the course of a con
versation with him in which he In
quired whether there was going to be
ony further war between you and Sen
ntor Quay, and remarked that If there
was another fight, he was going to sit
back and look on; and I replied: 'That
Is a pretty smart thing to do, nnd I
would like to do the same.' i had no
further conversation with anybody, ex
cept the conversation detailed with
Dave Martin on this subject. (
NP FIGHT WITH QUAY.
"The governor then said: 'There will
bo no fight between Senator Quay and
me. ns I Intend to go out of politics
as soon as my term of ofllce Is ended.'
"I replied: 'I can't sav that.'
"jrouchlng the governor's complaint
tJsdt General Reeder had not been zeal
ous In aiding the governor In his work,
General Reeder says ho reminded the
governor that in the earlier stages of
the work of preparing for a new capi
tol nobody on 'the hill' was more zeal
our than he, but that gradually At
torney General McMormlck appeared
to supplant him as an adviser of -the
governor, that he accepted this as an
Intimation -that his services were not
desired.
"As to the bond, I want to say there
never wns any such bond as has been
described and there was never any such
conference as hns been painted In the
newspapers. There was an agreement
to which a number of gentlemen were
signers, which agreement was prepared
and signed about five weeks before the
adjournment of the legislature. You
will, of course, admit that tha act of
JS74. which fixes the force nnd salaries
of clerks and employes of the legisla
ture, Is antiquated and out of date.
The force therein provided for Is al
together Inadequate to do the work of
the legislature and the salaries therein
established, while fair enough accord
ing to the scale of wages prevailing In
1S74, arc altogether too high for the
scale of 1507. The fact that tho act of
1S74, does not provide a sutnclent num
ber of employes to perform the work of
the legislature has long been recogniz
ed, and for tho last fifteen or twenty
years, the legislature has been compell
ed nt every session to add extra em
ployes In order to have the work fully
performed. This was done In 1S95, and
the amount of money necessary to pay
the extra force was provided for In an
Item In the appropriation bill, which
had your approval. At the opening of
tho session of jS9,, the officials of the
house and senate, accompanied by the
auditor general and state treasurer,
called upon you and submitted to you
their Ideas as to the needed extra force.
I wns pr sent In tho room, and knew In
a general way what was being done,
but I never heard from you or from
anybody else the details of the agree
ment which was entered Into between
you and the house officials and the fls
cal officers, except to have understood
In a general way that you had assented
to their proposition for the employment
of extra persons. I never knew until
the Item In the appropriation bill pro
viding for the salaries of those em
ployes was under consideration, that
there had been any persons employed
except those to which you had given
your consent. About flvo weeks before
tho session ended, an agreement was
brought to me, with tho statement that
tho temper of the house of fepresenta.
tlves was such that It was doubtful
whether th'ey would pass any appro
priation to pay the salaries of the extra
employes. In the full belief that you
wore fully cognizant and approved of
the employment of these extra officers,
and understanding from what was said
to me that the only risk of failure arose
from the attitude of the house, I con
sented to be one of a number of gentle
men to share with Mr. Haywood what
ever loss might occur through such a
failure on tho present house of repre
sentatives. As soon as I learned that
there were on the list of employes some
officials who hart been appointed with
your previous consent, I stated to you
fully nil ihe circumstances connected
with the agreement and this was before
any action was taken by you upon the
Item making appropriation for their
payment.
IT MADE NO IMPRESSION.
"The governor then remarked: 'The
attorney general tells me that you so
stated to me at the Mmo the appropria
tion bill was under consideration, but
my mind was engaged upon other mat-
YOU CANNOT CUjJE PILES
IIv Interim! Remedies.
The only sure wny to euro every form
of piles Is to use n remedy llko tho
Pyramid Pile Cure which Is nppllcd
directly to the parts affected and Its
wonderful healing effects nro apparent
from the first application because the
medicinal properties are rapidly ab
sorbed by tissues and sensitive mem
branes of the rectum, and the cure Is
made speedly and almost before the
patient Is aware of It, every trace of
piles has left him.
This is one of tho reasons why the
Pyramid Pile Cure bus been so uni
formly successful. It Is nppllcd di
rectly where It Is needed and where it
will do the most good. Not by tho
roundabout wny of the stomach nor by
the harsh, barbarous methods of var
ious surgical operations nnd so called
systems.
Direct application to tho scat of
disease Is the only ratlonnl way, and
this Is fully accomplished by tho Pyra
mid Pile Cure.
If the voluntary testimony of thous
ands who have tried this remedy Is
worth anything then no sufferer has
any excuse for longer delaying In giv
ing It a fair trial, knowing that when
you do so tho Pyramid Pile Cure will
havo mado one more friend, tho best
possible advertisement wo can have.
The chief advantages of the remedy
are: It cures without pain, the euro
Is lasting, it contains no poison, nnd
lastly. It Is the cheapest and quick
est cure yet found. Your druggists can
tell you what It has done for others.

time, and your Information made no
impression upon me.'
"I said: 'Governor, I do not under
stand how that could occur. You will
understand that you said to me, that,
Inasmuch as the Item provided for tho
payment of salaries to persons not au
thorized by law, you could not give it
yqur approval, and that, as you had
no constitutional power to veto a part
of an Item, vou would bo forced to
veto the entire Item. I mentioned to
you that such a course would prob
ably result In State Treasurer Hay
wood's financial ruin, as he had made
advances from time to time, accord
ing to tho custom which had always
prevailed, to these employes In order
that they might live, nnd that, If the
Item was vetoed, he would be com
pelled to replace In the treasury nil
the money so advanced. You replied:
'Well, Haywood ought to have known
better than to have made any advances
to any of these unauthorized people.'
I said: 'That Is not the trouble, be
cause this item Includes all the officials
provided for by the Act of 1874, and
Haywood would lose all tho money ad
vanced to them. As to the employes
who are not provided for by the Act
of 1S74, Haywood Is fully protected. You
Inquired how ho was protected, and I
told you that ho was protected by an
agreement of Indemnity, stating the
terms thereof, and explaining that I
was one of the signers of that agree
ment. The governor said: "Well, perhaps
that Is so, but," he said, "I nlready
knew of the bond, ns Haywood had
told me two days before your com
munication that he had such a bond."
After a pause, saying: "I am not sure
perhaps he told me after you had al
ready done so."
General Reeder says he told Governor
Hastings that his reply to tho state
ment that he had acted discourteously
In not consulting him before announc
ing his candidacy for the gubernatorial
nomination next year was simply that
he had not so announced himself. He
says he asked Gllkeson. of Bucks, for
the votes from that county for gover
nor, but this wns not necessarily be
cause he wanted the nomination.
General Reeder says the day after the
Interview quoted above he again saw
the governor, who was In company
with Attorney General McCormlck.nnd
that he told the governor then.
"I had spoken of resigning my office
to two persons to my wife about the
end of July, when I became convinced
that I had in a great degree lost your
confidence, and more recently to Sen
ator Quay. I have felt for some tlmo
an unwillingness to remain any longer
In your cabinet, but desired before tak
ing so Important a step, to consult
with some person In whose friendship
and discretion I had entire confidence.
My mind naturally turned to Senator
Quay, because I know he Is my friend,
and because, of all acquaintances,
there Is none In whose Judgment and
discretion I have so much confidence.
Accordingly, on the night before Sen
ator Quay went to Florida, I saw him
In Washington and sought his advice
on this point. He replied that he
thought I must be over-sensitive and
his advice was to hold the matter under
further advisement."
The governor again remarked there
would be no fight between himself nnd
Senator Quay, as he was going out of
politics.
"In the course of this second Inter
view on Wednesday, I again said to
the governor that I did not Intend to
make any announcement to the pub
lic as to the causes which led to my
resignation, except to give out the cor
respondence and that I would refer the
newspaper reporters to him for the
reasons, which moved him In asking for
my resignation; but, if any Individual
or newspaper made the fact of my res
ignation the basis of any attack upon
my personal or official Integrity, that
I would defend myself. The governor
replied: "There will bo no such attack.
If any newspaper mukes any such at
tack upon your Integrity, I will very
quickly put a stop to it."
This ended the Interview nnd two
hours later I said good-bye to the gov
ernor and left Harrlsburg."

REMOVAL
Goes on with increased vigor as the
time for moving draws near. We expect
that we will be settled in the
in aoouL two weens.
In the meantime, we're going to give
you greater inducements than
Dry Goods. Every department in the
store is especially attractive now with its
sprinkling of New Fall Goods.
And the prices on all lines from one
end of the store to the other are so ex
tremely low that, you cannot afford to let
this opportunity pass. Prices are on the
jump, jump, jump, and a little later you'll
pay a great deal more for your Dry Goods
than we will sell them to you now for.
Call and see us before we move and
pick up some of the best bargains of your
life.
