OHIO HAS Il ll) HI'H KIIAKE. Tne President Will Not Take a Su preme Court Judge from That State. WASHINGTON, Dec. I.—lt is ex pected the President will send in a Supreme Court nomination very soon. During the past week a num ber of prominent lawyers from Northeastern Ohio have been here urging upon the President the ap pointment of General T. A. Sander son, of Youngstown, to the vacancy on the Supreme Bench. Sanderson is unKnown in Ohio politics, but has an extensive law practice. Senator Sherman was selected to present General Sanderson's niame to the President, and according to Bx- State Senator Wolcott, who was present, the senator was somewhat shocked when told b} tbe President •'that all Ohio candidates for justice might as well know at once that he would not appoint an Ohio man." The President is reported to have said: "Ohio has had more than her share of representation on the Su preme' Bench, and it is time to pass the honors around. In twenty-five years she has had Chief Justices Chase and NVaite, and Justices Swayne and .Matthews, besides Judge Woods was practically an Ohio man, although appointed from Mississippi, to which state ho went after the war." Senator Sherman took advantage •of the interview to mildly intimate that Ohio was being "left" with this Administration and that there •was much feeling about it among -bis constituents. President Har rison did not agree with this state ment. This alleged presidential utterance was food for umcb talk among Ohio men. Clnru Piicv of IlcilH'fonte Jlurdi wd Nov. «. BELLEFONTE, Nov. '27.—One of the foulest murders that ever blot ted this section of the Staie was perpetrated here thiu afternoon. The victim of the sickening tragedy is Clara Price, aged eighteen years, the lovely daughter of David Price a liveryman, residing at Karthaus. The terrible tragedy has cast a gloom over the entire community. The brutal murderer is still at larger, but the authorities are making every effort to bis arrest. The details of the terrible affair are substantially as follows: About ten o'clock this forenoon Clara Price left her father's house for the purpose of attending ; market. While passing along a lonely road she was pounced upon by a villianous tram. A terrible struggle ensued, but the unfortun ate victim was overpowered and ravished. With a brutality and hearllessness almost unpaialled the scoundrel then drew a pistol and shot the girl four times. One bullet pierced her heart, another entered the back of ber head, another her back, while the fourth passed through her neck. The girl died instantly, any one of the shots being sufficient to cause death. The Slayer of Clnrn I'rl.-e Cnptitradi BELLEFONTE, Dec. I. —The murd erer of Clara Price has at last been apprehended, and to-night he sleeps behind iron bars. The capture was effected by Captain Clarke, of tbe Coal and Iron Police, of Philips burg. Tbe prisoner is Alfred Andrews, of Brisbin, and there is scarcely an iota of doubt but that he is the guilty man. Qreat credit is due Captain Clarke, as well as the authorities, for running the scound rel down, and now that he has been safely lodged in jail the community will breath easier. Andrews has been identified as the man who was seen following Miss Price along the lonely road on that fatal morning. He was a resi dent of Brisbin, and after the com mission of the terrible crime re paired hastily to his home, where he has since remained in fancied securi ty. The clute obtained by the of ficers have however, been closely followed, and the culmination of all,' strangely, as well as strongly, point j unitedly to the man now in the Centre* County jail. Our young people are planning a skate on 'Lake Mokoma, Saturday, providing the weather permits and the skating continues. Secretary Tracj*, in his report says that what this country needs is a fighting navy. There is more than a barrel of common sense in that re mark. This thing of trying to sus tain our national reputation with an ornamental navy has gone far enough. The K ail 1 road Survey. Krom the Guzette and Uullutm. The W illiamsport and North Branch Railroad Company has pur chased the right of way for a line between this city and Hall's. The surveyors have been over the line and have it about located. The next few years will probably witness some lively iailroad work in this section. The charter issued from the State Department Tuesday of last week to the Wilkes-Barre and Williams .port Ruilroad -Company, Capital, $1,600,000. The road will be 80 miles long, from Wilkes-Barre, through a portion of Luzerne, Col umbia and Lycoming counties to Williamsport. The directors are W. P. Bayman, President; J. 11. Bed ford, Ira E. Hartwell, F. C. Sturgis, H. A Fuller, F. W. Wheaton, E. Troxell and A. S. Orr of Wilkes- Barre; George F. Nesbitt of King ston, and Gustav E. Kassel and Joseph W. Ogden of Morristown, N. J. TO "VISIT CHICAGO. The President, and a Large Party to See the Auditorium Opened* WASHINGTON, De-;. 1 It is an nounced that the President and Mrs- Ilarrison will leave Washington on Friday or Saturday of this week for Chicago to attend the opening of the Chicago Auditorium next Mon day night, it is understood that Vice-President Morton and Mrs. Morton, Assistant Postmaster Clark son, and Mrs. Clarkson, Attorney General Miller and Mrs. Miller and one or two other members of the Ca'binet, with their ladies, will make up the party that will accompany the President on the Western trip. THE P. <* E. BRIDGE. The replacing of the wrecked trestling of the two unfinished spans of the new bridge at this place was completed shortly before six o'clock Monday evening. Several freight trains then crossed over and the Fast Line followed in safetv. The replacing of these trestles was a dif ficult job on account of the high and swift water and the uneven hot torn. The water averaged sixteen feet between the piers, and with the current aud lodging drift to contend witu, the successful completion of the work in six days is certainly a remarkable feat. The work of plac ing the iron spans will now be push ed to completion at once. It is expected fhat one span will be put in on Sunday next and the other the following Sunday, Travelers as well as the Penny railroad officials will alike feel relieved of a great source of uneasiness when this bridge is finally completed- Fearing that some of the piers were damaged by the last flood, a diver came here on Tuesday and ex amined them. They were found all right, and ready for the iron. The Muncv bridge is not yet in condition to allow trains to cross, and the Reading continues to Use the Penny's tracks to Williamsport. The Read.ng bridge at Milton re mains as the flood left it, and it is not probable that it will receive any attention this winter.-—Montgomery Mirror. A MYITERIOIH* ASSUI/r. MILWACKEE, Nov. 29.—* Jeff C. McKenney, ®ne of the leading crim inal law3'ers of Milwaukee, and known all over Wisconsin, is lying at home with a face beaten to a pulp and suffering from other in juries that may result in his death at any time. The case is a mys terious one, and the entire police force of the city is at work trying to run down McKenney's brutal as sailants. Mr. McKenney was found on Broadway near Michigan street at 5 o'clock Monday morning, and has not yet recovered consciousness. The place where McKinney was found is in the business centre of the city, but after dark it is deserted and unfrequented, being near the Chamber of Commerce, wholesale houses, and banks, which close at dusk. McKenney was last seen in a •aloon in the Opera House building, where a performance was being' : given on the night in question. 1 His wounds were made either by a j bludgeon, by brass knuckles, or by the heavily shod feet of one or more assailants. McGenney, like any other criminal lawyer of his prom inence, had made many enemies during his long practice, but the police are unable to find that there is any one among his knownleman, No. 6 May term 1888, framed ifcgue.
