hundred and tent-llvo (2J3) wero fraud

he cast for srld John R Jones by brib
ery, intimidation, fraud and wilful, cor
rupt violation of the constitution nnd
laws of this commonwealth, and of the
rules of the Republican party In this
county
Eighth Said John R. Jone. while a
candidate as aforesaid, did by himself
and through others acting In his behalf
and with his knowledge nnd sanction,

Sept. 7, 1S97, ns aforesaid, tho wild John
It. Jones, at that tlmo being a candidate
for iilstrlct nttornoy, did, by himself and

tion 7, which reads as follows:
"Any person who shall, whllo n can

frauds committed by tho said county con
vention nnd the said John It. Jones, nnd

And ho will ever pray.

D. Andrews, notary public.
MOTION TO QUASH.
Major Warren, In making his motion
to quash the petition, said:
May it pleaso the court, my friend, Mr.
Jones, asked mo this morning to repre
sent him, ho having been served with a
copy of this paper as It boa been read by
Mr. Patterson. That was only a few mo
ments ngo. I am hero at this time, If
our honors please, to move to quash this
petition. I havo not a formal motion in
writing becauso I havo not had tho op
portunity as ct to prepare It, but I de
sire to havo that opportunity accorded
me by your honors. Tho grounds upon
which we deslro to make this motion nro
these: rirst, tho petition Is not In proper
form In accorelanco with tho statute; sec
ond, It is in its allegations vague, general
and Indefinite; nnd third, the affidavit is
not as required by tho law, and therefore
tho actltlon as a wholo is not such, as
ought to bo entertained bv your honors.
Assuming that I had tiled that motion
I deIro to address mself to your honors
as If that motion wero In writing and be
fore tho court. I am amazed, If tho court
please, that a reputablo member of tho
bar, a man who was beforo the canven
tlon, us I understood Mr. Watson was,
and a man learned In tho law, as I as
sume ho Is, as officer of this court and a
member of tho b ir, should present a peti
tion of this character against a man who
Is now the Incumbent of the olllco of dis
trict attorney and seated at tho table
of tho prosecution nnd about to proceed
with tho buslrres of the court In accord
ance with tho duties of his office and oath.
Is a man's character and reputation, his
recognized ability ns the district attor
ney of this county, to bo attacked In this
vvaj, without a single specific averment
In any way, shapo or form, that would ap
peal to tho ellscrctlon of tho court con
necting him personally or indirectly with
tho things which would justify such an
Investigation? A man who stands here, I
think I can safeiy say, equal if not su
perior to any district attorney this county
has ever had.
ASSERTIONS ARE IDLE.
Some ot tho assertions In this affidavit
aro Idle. Tor example they complain ot
tho action of the tommittco on creden
tials seating ten Democrats or men not
properly elected to tho convention as dele
gates. That is matter certainly that
jour honors cannot investigate ut this
time. And oven though they wero of
some .substance, to mako suen an asser
tion, with J14',2 votts lecorded, upon tho
face of this petition, for the successful
candidate bctorc that convention and
the meagre handful of votes which they
assert here, jour honors can seo hov ab
surd sucUr an. assertion is, that our hon
ors should now act for this convention
and leeount tho votes several weeks If not
months after they in convention assem
bled selected Mr. Jones b a major it of
ten or eleven to one ovei tho petitioner
now beforo our honors.
Now this pcrltlon Is ot such a character,
If thu court please, tl.at it could havo
been filed against either of our honors
when ou wero nominated, or against tho
present governor of tho commonwealth,
or against an body whoever appeared be
foro the voters of tho community us a
nominee for office. AV hy couldn't am ono
sweat to such a. petition if ho takes tho
Idle iumois on thu sttects, if he Is soro
over a nomination.' And how does that
justit Out honors In making urr inves
tigation of this Kind as against a particu
lar rromlr.ee of that convention against
whoso personal action there is absolutel
nothing upon thu faeo of this pctltron
that accuses him of doing one solitary
thing to influence his selection b tnat
convention us its nominee.
BASED UPON RUMOR.
Is this court going to lend itself at tho
suggestion of Mr. Watson to an investi
gation thu limits of which no man knows,
thu eflect ot which Is absurd, based upon
nothing but an idlu rumor.' Aro jour
honors going to eu that Mr. Jones was
guilty of btlbery and corruption and fraud
on the saj-so of a man upon tho curb.'
How man weeks Is it since all this rumor
thit is here beforo jour honors has been
In tho breast of George M. Watson? It Is
weeks and wcek ago. Now, what does
thu man do.' Is this petition in good
faith.' Is this un asertion on tlio part
of Mr. Watson that ho knows Mr. Jones
used nny corrupt method In securing his
nomination? Why couldn't it be made
ngaiust ever candidato of every party
now beforo tho people of this county.'
And would this erurt lend itself to an
investigation of this kind. I ask Our
honois if under i petition of this kind the
court will Mop tho proceedings of this
court (becauso ou aro bound to do it
under thu law, jou have got to stop tho
business of tho cotitt right hero and now),
und go Into an Investigation which at tho
maximum is nothing more nor less than a
llshlng expedition solicited by a man who
did not get within u thousand miles of
being a close competitor of Mr. Jones. I
submit to this court this petition is an
outrage.
If George M. Watson, coming beforo
our honors Invoking tho statutes which
aro upon tho books, actually behoved as
he no swears that Mr. Jones had lntlrni
dated voters or had prevented him, Wat
son, from getting a majority of tho votes
or tho convention, don t our honors bup
poso that ho could say something hero
that would bring homo to Mr. Jones some
knowledge of that? Don't ou suppose ho
could attach to It tho affidavit of a man
to whom Mr. Jones may havo offered
somo money to glvo him his voto rather
than to glvo it to George Watson? Don't
you suppose there could bo somo thing
specific actually based upon tacts .' Not a
generalsweeplngassertlon that tho county
convention did not suit Georgo M. Wat
son, for that Is what that wholo paper
amounts to and that he, George M. Wat
son, now appears before this court and
asks your honors to determine as be
tween him and John R. Jones tho motives
of every eolltary voter that plied up a
majority forlilm that was certainly most
flattering to him, putting bcond all ques.
tlon tho cholco of that convention by an
overwhelming majority of votes.
PETITION IS UNrAIR.
I submit that this petition is unfair,
that it is unfounded, that it Is not specific
In Us averments, that it is not suffi
cient to Justify or permit your honors sit
ting as a court of Justice to enter Into
ouch an excursion as ho now asks your
honors to do. I submit it would be unfair
to Mr. Jones, that it is unheard of Irr tho
history of tho commonwealth, that its
sweeping character makes it absurd, and
tliero is no Just, honest, substantial foun
dation In its limits in doing what tho act
of assembly say you shall do If you pro
poso to enteittiln it.
If Mr, WatBon Iras a Just and proper
ground for finding fault In the nomination
papers ot Mr. Jones why, I ask him to
present them to your honors, and not a
paper of this kind. In view of Its char
actor, with no facts, no asertion of
facts, but rumors, rio speclflo averments
of any kind, I ask your honors to quash
this petition, and I ask It in the most per
fect good conscience that I have for your
honors as Aidses of this court: I ask It

If jour honors please, tho request of
Mr. Watson Is certainly most remark

majority of tho votes cast in it. Will this
court tell mo how they aro going to pro
ceed to do that? Aro you going to over
turn n majority of over 220 at tho sug
gestion of a mpti who got 23 votes?
BALANCE OP ASSERTIONS.
As to tho bnlsnco of the assertions in
this petition of Mr. Watson, they aro
based upon rotl.lng. As I have said be
foro they nro based upon nothing but Idle
rumor which he Is only willing to svear
to as n rumor. And ho waits these long
weeks nfter tho convention had adjourned
with the votes beforo blm, and ho In tho
convention and beforo It, and then asks
this court to nominate him for district
attorney and overcomo tho overwhelming

Baltimore Wins It for the Second Con
secutlve TlmcIt Was an Easy
Victory for the Orioles.
Baltimore, Oct. 11. Tho Temple cup
will stay In Baltimore another year.
It has been won twice In succession for
the first time in Its history, and If
the Orioles take It again It is thelr'p
absolutely. The former champions al
so take sixty per cent, of tho money
paid in at the gates during the three
games In Boston and the two played
here, while the winners of the pen
nant will get but forty per cent., unless
as Is generally believed, the plajers
have agreed among themselver to di
vide the spoils equally.
Today's game, like all the others ex
cept the first one, was an easy pro
position for tho Baltlmoreans, who
won much ns they pleased. An audi
ence so small that tho management
refused to give the exact number, saw
It done, without enthusiasm. There
may have been a thousand people on
the giounds, but probably not more
than 750. At the conclusion of the
game both teams disbanded and many
of the players left for their homes.
The Orioles put up a patchwork
team in the field, Bovverman being at
first and O'Brien In left, while "Happy
Jack" Stivetts replaced Hamilton for
the visitors. Later In the game Hick
man went into left to relieve Captain
Duffy, Vv'ho hurt his foot, and Sullivan
took Hickman's place. All three of
.he tvvlrlers were hit freely. The lidd

on the part of Jennings and Reitz.

and caught Lowe off the base, then
lined it to Bovverman to nip Stahl. The
