POLITICAL
On Thursday last Quay claimed 150
members uf the Legislature, and stated
that Snyder of Chester would be select
ed for President Pro. 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.

He has been an elder in Slippery
Rock congregation for more than forty

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.
Mr. McClyinonds requested the pas

Another Allegheny Kohl)cry.
Three men are locked up in the Alle
gheny Central police station accused of
bunkoing David M. 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
