Teui. of tli- Sen ate and Marshall of Allegheny for Speak er of the House He left for Florida Friday morning and before leaving made the following statement: — "The contest on Tuesday resulted in a sweeping victory for the stalwart Republicans of the State. The Senate will be organized by the regulars, no matter what statements to the con trary may be made by insurgents or hostile newspapers. Senator W. H. Snyder, of Chester County, will be elected president pro. tem. of the Ser ate, and Representative W. T. Marshall, a stalwart from Allegheny county will be elected Speaker of the House. I will be elected United States Senator by above 150 out of a total of ','34 on the first ballot in joint Assembly." And some members-elect, living near Philadelphia, met in that city Saturday and adopted the following:—Resolyed. That we, the members-elect of the House of Representatives of Pennsylva nia from the counties of Chester, Dela ware and Montgomery, cordially en dorse the candidacy of Hon. William i. Marshall of Allegheny for the office ot Speaker of the House; of Hon. Thomas. H. Garvin of Delaware for Chief Clerk, and of Hon. Charles Johnson of Mont gomery for resident clerk of the House. Knowing their eminent fitness for the discharge of the difficult and important duties of the offices named, we pledge for onrselves every honorable effort in their behalf and invite the co-operation of all of our Republican associates. President McKiuley, on Thursday, re ceived the followiug telegram from AN . J.Bryan: "At the close of another Presidential campaigne it is my lot to congratulate yon upon a second victory. Stalwarts, insurgents at*. Democrats are still engaged in figuring on the re sult of the legislative contests in this State. They all play on the same chess board, but they move the men different ly and the combinations are much at variance with each other. Each has a different view point, and the conclu sions are in most cases just what the man who is doing the figuring desires* Later and more complete returns from several districes which were close have altered the original estimates, and it is now privately admitted that the contest for the vacant seat in the United States Senate is exceedingly close, with the odds in favor of Quay. The Btalwart leaders will not admit that there is any donbt, but the} - are aware that they must depend almost entirely upon what are known as anti- Quay caucns men,-those who will go into the Republican caucus, yote against Quay and abide by the decision of the majority.— Ex. KENTUCKY is in doubt, but the Prohibs are not claiming it. Gov. STONE agrees with President McKinley as to the date for feasting and thankfulness —the 29th. THE Empress of China has refused to cut the heads off some of her Boxer chiefs. She will not go into caucus with the Powers on this matter. ELECTION ECHOES.

P. congregations with their wives, together with friends and neighbors assembled, at the home of Mr. Beveridge McClymonds, of West Liberty to celebrate the ninetieth an niversary of the birth of his father, Mr. Thomas McClymonds.

McCleester, and several speeches suitable to the oc casion were giyen. Mr. McClymonds although of such advanced age enjoys fairly good health and is in full possession of his mental faculties- About a year and a half ago his sight failed him and he is now al most totally blind. He has been an elder in Slippery Rock congregation for more than forty three years, but owing to advanced age and the distance, he has attended at West Liberty of la to years. He is held in high esteem by the members of both congregations and the public in general. The meeting was dismissed by the benediction.

Hendrickson, a Butler county farmer, out of SSOO near the Pittsburg & Western depot Tues day afternoon. They give the names of John Coulm, of Canton, O.: D M. Lawrence, of Waynesburg, Greene county, and John Swain, of Baltimore. The police say they are professional thi«ves and gamblers and their capture is regarded as an important one. Hen drickson lives in Cranberry twp., a few miles from Callery Junction. He has made his home there for 18 years, and in that period has been in the city but three times. The scheme of the three men was old, yet ingenious After two had secured possession of the money and Hendrick son was endeayoring to recover it the third appeared." assumed the role of a policeman and attracted Hendrickson's attention long enough to enable his partners to escape. Hendrickson, during the many y ;ars that he has worked as a farmer, miner and oil well driller, managed to save SSOO. There is a farm of 63 acres ad joining his home which he was anxious to secure, and with the money in his pocket lie went to town to complete the purchase. His business was with At torney George B. Motheral, but negotia tions are pending which compelled a postponement of the sale, and Hendrick son decided to return home on the 2.40 train. He was seated ill the Pittsburg & Western depot when Lawrence ap proached liiui and asked him it' he knew John F. Shannon, a store-keeper at Cal lery J anction. Henrickson did. Law rence then said that he was an agent for a brand of tobacco, and asked Heu rickson if he would take some of the circulars relating to the tobacco up to Mr. Shannon for him. Henrickson con sented, and the two men started for Lawrence's place of business to get the circulars. Passing up Anderson street they met Conlin. "Lend me your knife," said Lawrence "I want to sharpen my pen cil." Conlin took out his knife. Law rence could not open it and Conlin winked knowingly at the farmer. The knife had a spring to it which prevent ed the blade from opening unless the spring was worked in a certain way. Conlin showed its inj'3teries to Hen rickson. but kept Lawrence in the dark. An argument was started between the confidence men regarding the knife. Lawrence bet Conlin $lO he could open it. Conlin accepted and Law rence won the money. '•You can't do it again,"said Conlin, '"I will bet you any money you can't. " Conlin's pride was hurt. Lawrence ; at once became ex' ited. " 1 will bet yon SSOO I can!" he shout ed. at the same time taking out an enormous roll of money. "Yes," he continued, "I will bet you a thousand. Here!" he cried, quickly ! turning to the interested farmer, "give i me SSOO quick and we will win this man's money in a minute." Things were moving fast—too fast for Henrick son. His hand was in his pocket in a second and it clutched his SSOO when it came out. Lawrence reached quickly for it, pulled it from his hand, and he and bis companion started hastily away. Hendrickson followed, shoutiug police. Here is where Swain suddenly appeared arjuud a corner with a busi Butler County Election Returns, Nov G, 1900—official. i President, i And. Gen.
