LABOR ENDORSES GODOIIARLES. |
The State Legislative Board of Kail- |
way Employes, which was in session at |
Harrisbnrg this week, has endorsed
Hon. Fred A. (iodcharles, the Repnbli- J
can nominee for Congress in this dis
trict, because of his friendly attitude
towards organized labor. Mr. (iod
charles was a member of the last. House
of Representatives in the Pennsylvania
Legislature and did all in his power to
further the legislation advocated by the ,
laboring men. As there are many rail
road men in the district this endorse
ment means that Mr. (iodcharles will
receive not only their support at the
polls, but that they will do all possible j
to aid him during the campaign.
Sunbnry is a prominent terminal j
point of the Pennsylvania railroad; Nor- i
thumberland has many prominent Dela
ware, Lackawanna & Western men: j
Shamokin is the headquarters of the ;
Shamokin division of the Philadelphia 1
& Reading railway, and at West Milton
andCatawissa are other junction points
of this system. With all these rail
roaders in his district the endorsement
has powerful weight and sets upon his
candidacy the seal of approval of labor.
The State Legislative Board of Rail
way Employes is composed of represen
tatives of the Brotherhood of Locomo
tive Engineers, Brotherhood of Locomo
tive Firemen, Order of Railway Tele
graphers. At this Harrisbnrg session
E. M. Northuinberland.,_a

The Union Party Now Owned and
Operated by Democrats.
WANT TO CAPTURE LEGISLATURE
Then They Would Proceed to Elect a
Democratic Senator —Plans All Laid
Out—Some Sensational Democratic
Fakes Exposed.
(From Our Own Correspondent.)
Philadelphia, Sept. 2.—What every
body has been expecting has at last
come to pass. The Democracy has
gobbled the so-called Union party at
on« gulp. On Saturady last the Demo
cratic state leader, Colonel James M.
Guffey, held a conference in this city
with Frank M. Riter, state chairman
of the Union party, and completed the
details.
It is a notorious fact that Democrats
have been after Union party delegates
right and left for weeks. The result
of this is that the Democratic owners
of the Union party have demanded an
endorsement of I'attison anil Guthrie j
or else they will "rough" the conven
tion and make a scene.
The people In charge of the Uepuhll- ,
can state headquarters have kept j
themselves fully informed of the move |
ments of the Democrats in their work j
of capturing the independent remnant
in this city and state. An agent of
the party went into Washington coun
ty and offered the delegates of the ,
Union party there free transportation i
and all expenses to Philadelphia If
they would vote to endorse I'attison. j
In this city the most unusual proceed- j
ings have been resorted to to capture
delegates in the interest of the Demo
cratic party.
A DEMOCRAT FOR SENATOR.
It Is now understood that the deal j
between the Union party promoters
and the Democratic managers includes
not only the indorsement of the Demo
cratic'state ticket, but an arrangement I
for the selection of candidates for the
legislature who will be pledged to vote
for a Democrat for United States sena
tor and the support of Democrats and
Unionists of a fusion candidate for
mayor of Philadelphia next spring.
In the promotion of the mayoralty '
scheme it is understood the so-called
Union party state convention will un
dertake to authorize a reconstruction
of the Philadelphia Union ward and
city committees along the lines calcu- 1
lated to promote the deal already en
tered into. This means that an effort
will be made to depose men in Phila
delphia who favor Judge Pennypat ker
and substitute Democrats or those who j
are in harmony with the Democratic '
scheme.
A sample of the work they have been
carrying on was furnished the other
j night In this city. Members of the
i Union Party committee of the Thir
teenth ward met at Eighth street and j
' Fairmount avenue and elected I/mis J
Meunch and William McGowan as dele
' gates to the state convention, instruct
ing them to support ex-Judge Penny
packer for governor. The meeting,
which was presided over by Joseph
Weinrich, was invaded by members of
the Democratic Ward Executive Com
mittee, who wished to throw the sup
port of the convention to Robert E.
Pattison.
Failing in their efforts to stampede
the convention the Democrats bolted,
and held a second convention at f.21
North Seventh street, where they elect
" A PACKED CONVENTION.
The Union party has held no pri
maries. A few men have gathered here
and there and they have chosen their
delegates. In some cases there has been
snap judgment and in other cases two
sets of delegates have been elected
from the same districts. But the Pat
tison delegates will be admitted to the
convention.
Of course there will he some Penny
packer men in the convention, but the
Pattison men control the machinery of
the party by purchase and they will see
to it that Pattison has a majority in
the convention. It will be a packed
gathering and the Pennypaeker dele
gates will not stand a chance of being
treated fairly.
SOME DEMOCRATIC FAKES.
Sensational fakes are playing a
prominent part in the Democratic cam
paign. A week or two ago somebody
sent Hon. Robert E. Pattison an al
leged infernal "machine." After a lot
of exploitation it turned out to be a
package of harmless stuff.
Last week the story was industrious
ly circulated by the Democrats that
State Insurance Commissioner I. W.
Durham, the Philadelphia leader, who
Is in Colorado, was dangerously ill
with a chronic disease. It Is not a new
trick to Invent reports that this and
that political leader are not expected
to live long, owing to some malady
that has taken hold of them. For the
last dozen years Quay's enemies have
from time to time reported him in a
dying condition. Several years before
his death the late lamented Chris
itagee read in the newspapers that he
was a (lying man. Anil there have been
other similar cases.
Commissioner Durham Is in perfect
health and will return to Philadelphia
this week. He rides on an average
2!j miles a day.and in a recent per
sonal letter declared that he was never
bo well In his life.
Thanks For Penrose.
Resolutions of thanks, according to
a Washington dispatch, continue to
pour in upon Hon. lkiies Penrose for
his speech in the senate against the
oleomargarine trust. Granges all over
the state are sending him official i di
lutions for his efforts In the interests
of puro butter and the dairy.

PRESIDENT'S
NARROW ESCAPE
A tally-ho containing President |
Roosevelt, and party was struck by a
trolley ear on the tracks ot the l'itts
tield street railway company about I
miles from Lennox, Mass., yesterday
morning and overturned, all the occu
pants being thrown heavily to the
ground. The president escaped with a
slight cut upon the head, but Officer
Craig of the Secret Service, was caught
unili r tin? heavy vehicle and instantly
killed. Governor Murray Crane of
Massachusetts was caught under tin
edge of the vehicle, hut his injuries
were not such as to prevent him from
walking.
The landau was driven by D. J.
Pratt, of Daltnn, who was knocked
senseless in the up-set. George Cor
telyou, secretary to the President,was
also rendered unconscious. Congress
man George Lawrence of Massachu
setts w:u> slightly injured. The trol
ley struck the landau squarely and
the six occupants were hurled with
terrible force iu every direction. Fresh
horses aud a new carriage were ob
tained and as the President continued
his way he sent men ahead to tell the
people of the accident and ask them
not to cheer.
Craig, the secret serviceman killed,
was 48 years of age and a giant in
size. He had been in the service of
the White House for many years. He
j was atone time mem her of the (Queen's
i grenadiers.

MAJOR QEARHART'S
CAUSTIC REPLY
The correspondence b< tween Chief
Burgess J. W. M»loy of Hansford, and
Major C. P. G arhart relative to the
charge of drunkenness oil the part ot
the guardsmen is becoming quite ac
rinionious.
The controversy dates from Friday
1 n ..» ..T|.„u l Mulor tlf 1«1 *rl ?l
h th r to Nl:ijor Uicirliurt, in wim-fi in
made the charge that the officer in
cominauil of the troops at Lanstord on
that day was drunk and that many of
the soldiers were under the influence
of liquor.
In Major Gearhart's reply of August
2!tth he denounced the accusation as
absolutely false and declared that the
accusers of the soldiers and the offi
cer were either woefully mistaken or
willfully lying. He stated that he
had confidence in the sobriety and
cool headeduess of both officers and
men and informed the Burgess that all
that was desired of him was his co
operation and his association, which
it would seem had thus far been only
passive or in a contrary direction.
The Burgess was reminded that a clos
er intimacy would convince him that
the charges against the guardsmen
were untrue.
To this letter Burgess Maloy replied
on the same day :
"Sir:—Your letter dated August '-".i
received in reply to my letter concern
ing the reported condition of the man
in cha.'ge of your troops last Friday
at Lanstord. Your reply would indi
cate that you were so tiering from
mental excitement when you dictated
it. Ignoring its tone,the undersigned
suggests that you investigate the
question at issue. Investigation is
what any wrongly accused officer
would demand."
Major Gearhart promptly sent the
following reply:—
"J. W. Maloy, Chief Burgess at
Lansford, Pa.
Sir:—l am inclined to think that
you are either a lunatic or a worthy
representative of the lawless element
in your town, and I don't want to
have any further communication with
you on this subject. Respectfully, C.
P. Gearhart, Major.
The enlisted men as a unit stand by
Major Gearhart, declaring that the
charges of drunkenness are wholly
false. The charge against Captain
Hcini is especially unjust. As he
alighted from a trolley car Friday
morning the lacing in his legging be
came entangled, and be fell headlong
to the ground,badly injuring his arm.

A TARIFF TEST
Pennsylvania's Iron and 3teel In- i |
dustry Has Grown. r
The fight in Pennsylvania this tall is
one ol' the most interesting In the r
country, because of the large congres
sional Interests involved. The pro
posed Democratic attempt to revise
the tariff enters largely into the sub
ject and increases the Importance of |
the contest.
Of great interest to the people of this
state is a special bulletin just Issued
by the census bureau. It shows what
Republicans and a protective tariff
have done for the state and its wage
workers through the velopment of
its iron and steel industry. The re
port says:
Pennsylvania's place as the leader In
this industry Is thus shown by the re
port. Of the tola! capital reported for
active establishments in 1900, namely,
$590,530,3X1, Pennsylvania contributed
$321,985,059, or considerably over one
half, as compared with $220,294,107 in
lSOrt (total $l 14,011,811), still over one
half. and $102,956,223 in 1880 (total
$209,904,905), a little less than one
half.
The average number of wage-earners
employed in the whole country in 1900
was 222,007, who were paid wages
amounting to $120,836,338. Of these to
tals Pennsylvania gave work to 110,804
wage earners, almost one-half of the
total reported, paying them $01,908,405,
or over one-half of the wages paid in
this industry in the United States.
In 1900 the cost of all materials used
by iron and steel establishments, in
cluding freight charges, amounted to
$522,131,701. Pennsylvania's contribu
tion to this total was $283,112,785, con
siderably more than the total cost re
ported by all the other states in the
union. In 1890 the amount reported
by Pennsylvania for cost of materials
was $180,220,237, compared -vith $327,-
272,815 for the whole count y, and in
1880 it was $92,207,030, compared with
$191,271,150 for all the states.
The value of the iron and steel pro-
I ducts reported by Pennsylvania in 19o!)
I was $131,115,200, compared with SBOI,
034,918 for the I'nited States, or ."4
per cent, of the total value reported. I
In 1890 the figures for Pennsylvania ]
were $264,571,624, and for the whole j
country they were $178,687,519, Penn
sylvania's contribution amounting to j
55.3 per cent., slightly more than in :
1900. In 1880 the value of the pro
ducts made by iron and steel establish- j
ments in Pennsylvania was $115,576,- j
208, as compared with $296,557,685 re
ported by the United States, the pro- j
portion of Pennsylvania being 49.1 per
cent.
That New Party In Pittsburg.
Republicans throughout the state
would have considerable more inter
est in the so-called Ballot Reform
Party," organized in Pittsburg last
I week, if it were headed by inen of re
sponsibility. The fact is that this or
ganization has been formed to be used
as a club by some politicians in Pitts
burg. It is not entitled to the consid
eration of anybody, under the circum
stances. There is a lug light going on
In Pittsburg and this alleged "Ballot
Reform Party" is only another and
newer phase of the Pittsburg row. !t
i is to be used agifcist the regular Re
publican state ticket.
Old Kaahlonrd Apple Sauee.
First reduce a quantity of cider by
boiling it until only half of the orig
inal quantity remains. Wash the ap
ples, wipe dry, then pare, core and
I quarter. For two quarts of the cut
up apples use two quarts of the boiled
cider into a granite kettle
nnd cook the apples, or quarters of ap
ples, putting In only a few tit a time.
Test them by piercing with a straw.
•When the straw passes easily through
the pieces, they are done. Lift them
out carefully with a skimmer—don't
break them—and putin several more
quarters—Just enough to tloat nicely
without crowding on the top. Lay the
quarters of apple out on a flat plate
and ns the cider drains from them pour
It back into the kettle. If the cider
boils away too fast, add more, always
boiled cider, however.
When till the apples have been thor
oughly stewed in the cider, boil what
cider is left down to u thin sirup and
pour it over the fruit. Apple sauce
made thus will keep for a long time in
a covered stone Jar.
Startlnic the Conversation.
"I don't know what the trouble is,"
said the hostess in a tone of great an
noyance. "My guests seem very dis
tant and unsocial. I wish 1 could think
of some way to start them talking to
one another."
"That's very easily done," answered
Miss Cayenne. "Is there a musician
presentV"
" Ves."
"Get him to play or sing something."
