ANDREWS RUNS UP THE FLAG Opposition's Forces Are Divided Over Bitter Rows Among Democrats and Prohibitionists. ISpeclul Correspondence.] Philadelphia, Aug 2'J. The headquarters of the Republican state committee were formally opened this w»*f»k. and the campaign for the election of the Republican state ticket has been liiHUKuratud under the most favorable condition!. A largw force of clerks have been put to work, and a staff of stenographers are kept busy until late wvery night turning out the heavy mall, to which Chairman Wesley R Andrews give personal attention. Owing to the fact that Ihe prelimi nary work of the canvass was started unusually early this year, matters are in shape to begin active and Btrenuous campaigning without Interruption of any kind. "We hare run up our flag, we have our forres thoroughly organized, we are prepared for a sharp and aggressive campaign and we have not the slightest doubt aliout the outcome," declared Colonel Andrews, as he sat at his desk at the state headquarters. "We are confronted by the aarne old enemy," he continued, "although a desperate at tempt Is bHng made to make it appear otherwise, and we Intend to administer one of those same old lickings which we have been giving them as they con front us at the iiolls year after year. The Republican tl< ket will be trium phant this fall as usual, and the ma jorities will be quite up to the average for an off-year campaign " Fusion Game Fails. The Democrats and their insurgent Republican allies have been making a play for a fusion campaign in Pennsyl vania this fall, but they have not been successful In their efforts. While they did get the Democrats to put Justice thetr ticket for the supreme court nom ination, this act was not only pleasing to the stalwart Republicans bec ause it demonstrated the wisdom of*their ac tion in nominating Justice Stewart, but also because it has disrupted the Dem ocracy There are thousands of Democrats who will not vote for a Republican under any circumstances. They always resent the placing of a Republican on the Democratic ticket When this is done they generally remain away from the polls. If they do not do that, they vote for the Democrats on their ticket and cut the Republicans who may be put on their ticket to entourage fusion schemes Thts year the Democracy what is left of It, In Pennsylvania Is in a very bad way. They not only have a Republi can, Justice Stewart, at the head of their ticket, but they also have a Pro hibitionist, W. H Berry, running for state treasurer. There are already being organized anti-Berry Democratic clubs by old-line Democrats who ian not stand for a Prohibitionist Demo crats of th» Jacksonlan school in coun ties like Schuylkill, Berks, Luzerne, I«acka wanna. Westmoreland, North ampton. Pike, Carbon and elsewhere resent th«> nomination of Prohibitionist Berry and propose to assort themselves at the coming election by voting for J. Lee Plummer, the Republican candi date for state treasurer They intend that .lames M (iuffey, the "boss' of the state Democracy, shall be taught a lesson at the coming election, and that it shall be impressed upon him that he cannot command the Democrats of Pennsylvania to vote for either Republicans or Prohibitionists to serve his own selfish purposes. They say that If they are to vote for any candidates other than Democrats they reserve to themselves the right to se lect sui h candidates themselves. Dem ocratic leaders, they argue, are chosen to elect Democrats to office, not Prohi bitionists or members of any other party A Pretty Fight, This. This Is a pretty fight that has sprung up among th«* Democrats It not only disgusts the Democratic leaders but It is a supreme disappointment to the sorehead Republicans or so-called In surgents who had hoped that the Dem ocrats would be uniti d in support of Berry, whose campaign they have been counting upon to help them In their local factional games In several coun tlM In which they are fighting the reg ular Republican nominees With the Democracy hopelessly di vided over their state ticket, and with a number of Democrats county leaders up In arms against (tuffey's bosslem, there can be no effective fusion cam paigning In any county In the state this fall The Prohibition state convention, with its sensational scenes oyer the bru tal tattles reported to In the scheming resulting In the nomination of Berry for state treasurer, furnishes additional rauae for alarm and chagrin among the fusion conspirators When they suc ceeded in landing Ouffey for the nomi nation of Berry by the Democratic state j convention, the next move was to hunt 1 for delegates among the Prohibition ists Through insurgent Republican Influences In this city, the Philadelphia delegation to the Prohibition Rtafe con ventlon was liued up for Berry, and this, with other delegations under Ilka control, gave the nucleus for a ftorrr I movement in the Wllliamsport Prohi bition convention The bitter and personal attacks upon Berry which were made upon the floor i of the Prohibition stato convention I were not anticipated, and the largo vote polled against his nomination was a | complete surprise to the fusion crowd. : Since'the adjournment of the Wll- J llamsport convention, hundreds of the | most prominent and influential Prohibi tionists In the slate have publicly de clared that they will not vote for Berry for state treasurer, and others have gone so far as to announce that this year they are going to vote the full Republican ticket. Berry' 6 Coat of Many Colors. They say they have not renounced th* cause of Prohibition, but they look upon Berry as an office-seeking Jobber, who has successively es poused the cause of tree silver, Bryan lam, fr«e trade, Parkerlsm, and now Is a Prohibitionist, and no one knows what next he will advocate In order to land in a fat state office A large ma jority of Prohibitionists of Pennsyl vania sympathize with Republicanism, aside from their views on the prohibi tion of the liquor traffic. If they can not get sincere and loyal Prohibition ists to vote for, the chances are that they will support the Republican nom inees. There has been much Indignation expressed at the manipulations by the Democratic and Insurgent Republican leaders which resulted In the Indorse ment of Berry at Wllllamßport. and the returns at the coming election are hound to show a falling off of the 1 ro hlbttlon vote for the candidate for state treasurer. Meanwhile, with the Democrats and the Prohibitionists at odds over the selection of Berry, tho Republicans throughout the stato are supporting their candidate for state treasurer, J I.ee Plummer, with enthusiasm, and his election by an overwhelming ma jority Is confidently predicted by State Chairman Andrews. NEW JOURNAL WAS INSTALLED The new journal to take the place of the one accidentally burned out at the electric light plant was completed by Curry & Company yesterday afternoon and at once installed in its place. In order to insure that it tilled the bill in every respect the plant wan started up and run for two hours. Nothing oc curred to indicate any defect. Accordingly the plant was started up last evening and we bad electric light during the night, which was 'uost highly appreciated indeed after the trying experience of the couple of nights preceding, when the streets were without a ray of light and it was next to Impossible without the aid of a lantern to find one's way anywhere about town.

It is not improbable that another dynamo will he installed by and by To leave the town in total darkness might prove a serious thing under some circumstances. FINDING OF BODY HAY DISCLOSE A MURDER Prom present indications, the find ing of the mangled body of an un known man near Lewistown, on the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks, Monday morning, will result in a murder sen sation. The man had apparently been run down by a passenger train, and had been dragged a mile. Along the tracks in the ditch, 200 yards from where the body had been first struck, was found a pool of blood and a blood soaked handkerchief, club with blood marks on it, and evidence in the cinders of a scuffle. Although the trail could not be traced, it is thought the man was murdered and thrown in front of an east bound pass enger train to hide the evidence of the crime. J. C. Harshbarger, a track walker, identified the remains as being those of a man to whom he was talking at midnight at Horningford Station. He says the stranger was in company with another mau and that both were slight ly under the influence of liquor, and spoke of being en route to some num ber on Fifth street, Reading, Pa. The dead man was of medium build and height, smooth of face,with black hair and eyes, and was dressed iu a blue serge suit, percale shirt and pat ent leather shoes. Everything on his person was neat and clean, and he had the appearance of being a man of good circumstances. Although the lid of a jewelry box was found in bis pocket, aud an Eagle button was on his coat, the box aud its contents were missing and his official receipt,without which no Eagle travels, was also missing NOTICE.

FRENCH PRAISE THE PRESIDENT PARIS,Aug. !10.—The French news papers this morning devote lengthy and eulogistic editorials to President Koosevelt. The President is the hero of the hour—indeed little mention is made of Emperor Nicholas. The " Matin'' says : "Koosevelt is the great victor. He forced tlio belligerents who wore strangling one another to meet on neutral grounds with tlio same tran quility that he displayed on the eve of the battle at the head of his Rough Kiders. ILi tackled the respective delegates of the belligerent parties, facing Japan cupidity and Russian in fatuation. with the same disdain for diplomatic usages as when he was charging the trenches with his slouch hat on the ground ami a white hand kerchief around his neck. He is the great victor of this battle of giants." The "Petit Journal" says: "All honor is due to President Koosevelt. As the promoter of this conference, he is a benefactor to humanity." The "Petit Parisian" says:"The result is due to one man, President Koosevelt. The Russians and Japanese and the whole world owe a debt of gratitude to him. " The "Figaro" says; "Japan has shown moderation in her hour of vic tory. She understood that a peace which humiliates cannot he a lasting peace." Oil Bias says:"The Russians were beaten unceasingly and could not con tinue the war. Peace had to be sigri jed and President Koosevelt hastened its conclusion " Beware of Ointmats for Catarrh that Contain Mercury. us mercury will surely destroy the serine o m»»ll and completely derange the whole sys em u nt il entering it through the mucous sur aces.

An« 3<>.— Thero is a growing suspicion that HUH ! sin has agreed to pay to Japan a sum ' of money in lieu of a cash indemnity. Upon what it is based or how the amount cannot of course he learn ed. There was a very significant feature of yesterday's conference of the en voys that has almost been lost siglit of. It »vas the dismissal of the secre taries during certain deliberations ov er some of the Japanese demands which had been left open from a previous meeting. Why this secrecy should have been maintained if it was a clear case o the delivery of an ultimatum and Its acceptance is a mystery incapable of solution at this time. It is understood that the envoys deliberated in the strictest privacy for over an hour. \nother suspicious feature is the saiootlmess with which the iioßOtia j tions were conducted on a question which his been the stumbling block since the first meeting, namely that of indemnity. From the most, accurate reports it appears that M. Witte laid down an ultimatum which was ac cepted promptly by the Japanese en voys. This may have been due to the fact that the Japanese had become thor oughly convinced that further parley on this dispute demand would he futile. The Japanese envoys yesterday en tered into a traffic arrangement with the Russians whereby direct connec tions will be established between the Chinese Eastern railway which is now Japanese property and the Siberian Manchurian railroad, which belongs to liussia in order to provide through transportation for freight and pass engers. It hardly seems possible that any in demnity could be concealed in that ar rangement but it must bo remembered that equal treatment of Russia 011 the eastern Chinese railway would prove a valuable concession for which it is not improbable that Kusisa would be willing to pay handsomely. The ori ental mind is a crafty one. Then again the exact details relative to the un derstanding reached 011 the rail road demand is being hedged about with more or less secrecy. It is hardly probable that such an arrangement will he written into the treaty but it is quite possible, ill the opinion of some observers, that at a future date it may be found that Japan is obtaining from Kusiia financial ad vantages which while of great value have not been disclosed at this con fereuce.

APPLE CROP A FAILURE Many "t tlio (aimers throughout Montonr County litivo completed dig ging their potatoes and their reports as to the yield wonM indicate that the crop will he something less than afull one. The potatoes yielded by a single lull are fewer in number than for some years past ; neither are they large iu si/.0. This hears out the prediction made a month or ho ago when the vines sliowi (I -i{_>ns of dying prema turely and a blight was affecting the fields. All the other crops of the farm, however, with the single exception ot apples, promise a luxuriant yield and tie season on the whole promises to be oi.e in which the farmer will do well. The aj pie crop according to all ac counts will be a miserable failure. A well known farmer yesterday stated that so tar as he had observed through out Montonr count? the apples will he much les- than half a crop—probably less than a quarter of a yield. ♦ em ■ (Mi us 2 TO 15 HORSE POWER Strictly High ( lass ' Fnllv Gnarauteed SEND FOR SPECIAL CATALOGUE lliißiiil Sis [flit ti.
