of Iljprepx-utati"es on Thursday. Tlie
matter was argued hr several fiajs,
bome twenty tipcech.es having Iweu
inaile, and Mr. Rotier: was allowed to
plead in his own behalf in a talk of an
hour and a half in Itngth. The final
vote on the question of allowing him
ti take his seat resulted GSagains't.and
.jO in favor, and Mr. Roberts is aga n
back in private life.
Komeksi.t (or.vrv can be depended
upon to send two republicans to the
Legislature this year who will vote for
the caucus nominee :"or United Stales
Senator, whoever be may be. They are
firm believtrs in the principl of ma
jority rule, and are determined to wipe
ut the blot placed upon their reputa
tion in this respect b.f the individuals
who no wilfully u:iMt"prcrit'd them
iu the last Legislature. The Insurgent
cause was never tiopu!ar in Somerset
county, and it is cert inly less so to day
than ever before.
"I li ave not foun.I a man yet who
was for silver in Is:m; who is not for it
now," says Byan. What about Sib
ley, of IVnnsj lvauia ? Sibley was so
strong for silver in l-SH'-i that many prr
soiis at the time thought that he ought
!o have leen oa the ticket with Bryan.
Ixits of other old time Bryatiites are
against him now. I'or a man who is,
iu the interest of his candidacy, con
tinually on the wing, Bryan se s very
little that ingoing on in polities That
"(i.ofK'.OUi'' of 1&; will lie a good deal
xm.iller than this when the votes are
counted in 1!KH).
Now Coiigtcssman Sibl-?y launch
es forth as a o)itical prophet and prr
licts that Seuator Q'Jay wiil tie sea ted
and will have votes to spare. He sys
he has jiersonal knowledge of a nuin
tier of Democratic Senators who will
vote in favor oi seating Q'lay, and that
for every Republican who vo es in the
negative there will tie a Democrat who
will vote in the affirmative, lie also
as-uns that a number of Democrats
will speuk in favor of seating Q isy
when the question is debated. Sena
tor (Juay and his friends express the ut
most confident in the outcome of the
ce, and are anxious that the question
hi submitted to a vote of the Senate.
That two to one vote by which the
Pettigrew Philippine proposition was
baten in the Sena'e the other day has
demoralized and disheartened the Agui
u ildists in that chamber. An occa
sional speech is still made in Congress
in favor of the Tugals, but it is clear
that the friends of the rebels now see
that their defeat will be overwhelming
on any division in which the suppres
sion of thi insurrection aud the reten

are involved. AU this ought to have

Ix a lengthy editorial uuder the cap

the Johnstown IViuocrat of a recent

other things, that "he (Mr. Thropp)
has made some kind of an arrangement
by which the opposition to him iu Som

P'le the efforts of the tuayites."
It would be very intererting at this
stage to know the source of our neigh
bor's information as well as lo have an
insight int tbe "arrange mi nt that has

It is true that an "tirangeineut" was
made four years ago by which th votes
of the Sooitrset coir.ty conferrees were
delivered to Mr. Thropp, and that the
ra'iie sort of an "arrangement'' wis
made two years ago. The Republicans
of the county have been duped twice
by this peculiar kind of au "arrange
meet" and they propose to see to it this
year that the parties to the former "ar

will have a candidate for Congress this
year who will not run in the iuttrests
of Mr. Thropp, and will not make any

benvy fire, not only from rifles, but of
lyddite and shrapnel from field guns.
Three forces ascended the three spars
en ordinately, under cover of fire from
the Free State Krupps, a Creusot and a
big Maxim. The Kuglisb tried to rush

Tbe British Maxims belched flame, but
a wall of (ire from tbe Mausers held the

abandoning the position.
Tbe prisoners speak highly of the

and rushed out of the treucbes.
The etTect of the abandonment of Spion

looked as if tbe case would fall, as not
one witness of tbe '20 connected tbe
Pierces ir tbe most remo.e way with the
murder, but tbe last witness created tbe
greatest sensatiou tbat bas yet been iu
jcled into this sensational case. This
witness was Miss Miry Coben.of VVil
mington, Del. She said that Jim Pieice
cone to her house on Friday, December
22i, and called her to tbe parlor, and that
after supper they went out together,
when Pierce bought her a watci and
some other articles. Continuing ber tes
timony, tbe girl said Pierce returned to
tbe bouse and during tbe night beer if d
out In his.sleop; "Oh, I did it! I did it!
"W hat did vou do?" tbe t'ohen girl
aked, and Pierce, awakening, said :
murdered him ! I murdered him!" and
continuing he said that he and his broth
er Piuuey bad shot and killed Eyre, then
bad sunk his body in tbe Delaware river
at tbe mouth of Raccoon creek. In bis
recital of the story she testified that
Pierce told her he and Pinuey weie gun
Ding with l.yre and, being short of
Christinas money, he shot Kyre in tbe
back of tbe bead, killing him instantly.
He and Piuuey then took Eyre's money
aud valuables, and, tying tbe legs, sunk
tbe body. Eyre's boat wasalso sunk.
Mla-sCobeu said tbat she did not tell
any cue of tbe confession of Jim Pierce
until the weight on her mind grew so
burdensome tbat one of tbe inmate of
tbe house, noticing her worried appear
ance, asked ber what tbe trouble was and
she told her. Tbe story was then given
to District Attorney Sini'.h and Chief of

WaSHisoToy. January 23. The cas of
Eric barn H. Koberta, tbe Mormon itrpr

cupied no much of tbe attention of the

was decided to day by the adoption of a
resolution to exclude biiu by a vote of 270
to SO.
Tbe exact language of tbe resolution

The amendment to expel Mr. Roberta

and the House only voted upon the reso
lutions of tbe majority and minority of

then expel Mr. Roberts weie defeated

An analysis of this vote shows that 170

republicans, 2 Populists aud 2 Silver Re
publicans for it.
Tbe majority . resolutions, to exclude

There were over a score of speakers to
day, and the closing speeches on each side
were particularly able. Mr. Lanbam. of
Texas, closed for the majority, and Mr.
DeArmond, of M issouri, for the minority,
Mr. Roberta was present throng bout tbe

of tbe last vote had been announced. As

Tbe undertaker remonstrated with
Lane, but he continued to exhort tbe

(Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Jan. 30. The action of
tbe Democratic state committee oa
TbnrsdaT last in adopting resolution
declaring Villiam Jennings Bryan to
be the choice of the Democracy of
Pennsylvania for president was receiv
ed like a bomb in the camp of the Re
publican lnmrrcnts of this state.
Thin element In the Republican party
that follow the leadership of David
Martin In this city and William Flinn
in tbe western counties in opposition to
tho leaders of the re,iular Republican
organization have been hopeful of con-
tinning their alliance with tr Guffcy
Democrats in the canvass -v mem
bers of the legislature this year. Be
fore Guffey went to Harrisburg the in
surgents warned him against allowing
the Democratic state committee taking
up the Bryan movement. They de
clared thHt if it became known that
Guffey's friends were committed to
Bryan a large element of the Demo
cratic party would refuse to support
his candidates for the legislature. This
would defeat their schemes for fusion.
While the insurgents could control a
certain number of Republicans, this
number would be small as compared
with the Democratic vote in any local
ity where the full Democratic vote
must be polled in order to defeat the
regular Republican nominees.
H is known that Guffey fully appre
ciated the force of this argument from
the Martin-Klinn combine, but he also
realized that his personal following
among tho Democrats is composed
largely of the radical free silverites.
who fairly worship Bryan. When he
landed In the state capital he soon dis
covered that the boys were determined
to declare for Bryan for president re
gardless of the wishes of their Republi
can allies, and the Bryan resolution
was presented at the state committee
meting, and it was adopted without
a dissenting voice
IXDER BRYAN'S STANDARD.
The Bryan standard has thus been
raised over the IVmocratlc ramp, and
If Flinn and Martin pr p is to continue
to array themselves against the Repub
lican party and its regularly nominated
candidates they must fight with Guf
fey under the flag of Bryan, stand ac
cused of supporting the Chicago plat
form and everything else that Bryan
Ism Implies. Many of the former fol
lowers of Martin and Flinn will not
go with them into the Bryan camp,
and Guffey ennnot under any circum
stances ret the sttpport of the sound
money Democrats. Mr.r.7 of them,
rather than accept the Bryan platform
of the Guffey contineent. will rote the
regular Republican ticket, as most of
them did in the McKinley enmpaign
four years 8?o.
If the rold Democratic leaders of
Harrisburg had been allowed to tell
Bryan their private opinion of the sit
uation it would doubtless have been
that the committee was simply taking
ono more step to reduce the already
sadly diminished strength of the Dem
ocratic party In Pennsylvania, and
that there is not the slightest likeli
hood that he will be able to carry a
dozen out cf the counties of the state.
A CONDITION, NOT A THEORY.
During his stay in Harrisburg Mr.
Bryan delUcred himself of the usuh!
npoech about the Chicago piriform, re-
iterattug his intention to stick to It an l
d?elanng that unqualified devotlcn to
it was the true and only test of Demo
cratic raitfc. At no time did he hold
forth theslightcst encouragement to the
tens of thousands of Democrats who
hsve no svmpathy with the Chicago
platform to return to the party; he
harped ajrain on the silver oucstlor
with his customary emphasis, and cave
1113 followers distinctly to understand
that the battle of 1D00 was to be waned
along the same lines as that of 1896,
ith the exception of his new depart
nre on tne fesue of anti-imperialism.
Put it w.-s a pomewhat unpleasant
circumstance that ia the midst of Mr.
biyan s appeal to the Democrats of
Pennsylvania for renewed fidelity to
the silver issue an announcement was
made at Harrlsbur? on behalf of the
rnt Pennsylvania steel works in
Meelton that on the first of March
there would be an advance of waees of
about 10 per cent, and that more th.n
5.0OO men would obtain the benefits of
Phe Increase.
PENROSE'S GREAT VICTORY,
Senator Penrose finds that the labors
end trials of two United States senator-
chips which have been upon his shoul
tiers since the expiration of Senator
Qucy's term are wearing heavily. He
nas scarcely bad an opportunity to

day at Warhington attending to the
many oiuciai responsibilities which
come to him from his constituents in

tematized his correspondence, and he
always carries an immense batch of
papers on h's daily rounds of the de
partments. He made a determined fight
to no; c- League island equipped with
a stone dock such as would place it
upon a piane wun me great narr

onjectioiis irom members of congress
from stais far from the seaboard, who
at nm tailed to appreciate the im
portance of this proposed improve
ment. Hp Pr.lly succeeded in remov
ing all oppni!-it,n with the aid of sev
eral members of the Pennsylvania del
egation tn tbe house, and last wectr
Senator Penrose had the satisfaction of
seeing President McKinley attach his
signature to the bill making the appro
priation lor me worn. This sions
dock will mean much to the industries
of Pennsylvania, especially the iron
interests, it will meau tbat supplies

and that every manufacturing inter
