Wet ter, of the lirui of Pavue fk Co , who constructed the addition to the capitol under direction of the Hoard of Public Buildings and Grounds MAY NOT LEAVE CITY. Tlio informations were made by County Detective James Walters, and in his hands were placed the warrants for the arrest of the parties, but it is not expected that the detective will have to leave the city, as all of the accused men will either come to Har risburg and waive a hearing and give hail for court or go through that form where they are arrested. The detec tive's Informations are made "ou in formation received," and many speci fic violations of the law are set forth in the piiuted documents which have been in course ot preparation for sev eral months. This moruing Attorney General Todd,in compliance with his promise, called the newspaper representatives into his office, and gave them the uauies of parties accused, and what it is proposed to prove against them. CHARGED WITH CONSPIRACY. Mr. Todd gave out the information that thirty informations had been made agaiust the men mentioned, all em bracing the charge of conspiracy to cheat and defraud the State. "There are indictments charging conspiracy to cheat and defraud the State," said Mr. Todd,"against Sand erson, Houston, Snyder, Shumaker, Mathues aud Cassel.and like informa tions against Wetter, Sanderson,Hous ton, Shumaker, Snyder, Mathues, Boileau,Kinsman,Neiderer and Storm. There are also a series of indictments against all of these on payments made on contracts of Sanderson, JPayne and Wetter. "Another indictment obtains against Oaaael, Wetter and Payne for obtain ing money under false pretenses. TO GO BEFORE GRAND JURY. "All of the informations made to Immigration During the fiscal year ended .Tune 10 last 1,400,000 immigrants were ad mitted into the United States, accord ing to the annual report which will soon be issued by Frank P. Sargent, United States Commissioner of Im migration. This is more than four times the number admitted teu years .igo. During those ten years the army j of immigrants increased steadily, and it will increase so long as this coun try's prosperity shall remain unbrok an. Heretofore all but a small percent-' ige of the newcomers remained in the ' large cities, and very few went to the agricultural districts. The percentage j 112 those who choose to woik on farms s Btill very small, but t.ie Oommis siouer reports that it is much easier now than formerly to induce immi grants togo where there is most de mand for their services The nations are pouring into this ;ountry from everywhere.

Sanderson and Houston are in on fif teen cases of this chtacter, nud their hail has been fixed »t #4,000 in each case, which makes au aggregate of #60,000. FREE FROM POLITICS. As it he feared that politics would ' out any figure in the coming trials Mr Todd emphatically denied that it would, and said: "We de not fear politics in this matter,and if it conies it will be cared for." It is possible that the cases may be tried at a special term of court. Dis | irict Attorney Weiss said this morning ; that he has 275 cases to try at the | criminal term next week, so that it is not at all probable that.tlie graft cases will get beyond the grand jury stage. Mr. Weiss declined to say whether he will send all of the cases to the grand jury next week, remarking, however, that "they will all goto the grand < jury." CIVIL SUIIS WILL FOLLOW, i Tiie warrants issued today in con j uection with the capitol scandal are ! based on the report made to Governor Stuart by the commission created by the recent Legislature to investigate the capitol scandal. They will be fol lowed by civil suits for the recovery of a portion of the nine million dol lars collected from the State by the contractors for the furnishing and equipping of the capitol. In its report made public about a i month ago the commission named : eighteen persons and firms as being | involved in the capitol contracts and recommended prosecution of "any anil all persons concerned in the fraudu lent transactions, named specifically, and all persons who may be directly ! or indirectly involved." , Siberia and from Africa. Into the western ports come Ohiue.se, Japanese ! aud natives from the smaller islands of the Pacific. The southwestern ports and boundary cities receive the Asia : tics and Mexicans and natives of Oen : tral America. All the races are pour ; ing into the United States at a rate I that would have been alarming to Am ericans of forty years ago. And this j will continue indefinitely, j What does it portend? Will it ever be possih!°i for the different races to meet somewhere and amalgamate, aud will this be done in the United States? i The whites from different countries live here in harmony with each other, but that is not unique. Will it be pos sible for the white, black, yellow, brown aud red men to unite in the United States, or even to live in har mony with each other? Or will the great battle of the races be fought here, aud are events even uow shaping to that end? Here is a ripe field for speculation. Raymond E.

The State highway commissioner in an ad dress last week stated that Pennsyl vania lias 518.300 miles of township roads. On file at Harrisburg are ap plications for the improvement of 81,- 082 miles of the Commonwealth's roads. Scientific roadways to the ex tent of 233 miles are finished, while 2H5 miles of these roads are under con tract. The total of good roads finish ed,or to be finished in a short time, is 572 miles Thus it may be seen that we are a long way from anything like a complete system of good roads. That mosscovered relic —the toll gate—is still to be found on many of the pikes, but it is doomed to extinction,through the roads being placed in the bonds of the township authorities. In several States there are no longer any toll roads. In Missouri there is at present much activity in road building, three solid macadam State roads being un j der construction between Kansas City | and St. Louis. There is still some J talk of buildiug a national highway I extending from the Atlantic to the I Pacific, but no definite steps have as yet been taken. Pennsylvania will J have to get a move on if she wisnes to ; cut any figure as a good roads State. NEW FOREIGN POSTAL RATES It is well to remember that the new postal rates between this and foreign countries are togo into effect on the first of the coming month. Some of the postal officials here are of the op inion that the new reply coupon will rapidly develop into popularity iu forgeiu correspondence. It costs six cents and upon its presentation at any foreigu post office of a country sign atory o! the Rome convention,and the signers include practically every couu try in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and South America.the bearer will be given without charge a postage stamp of that country equivalent to a 5-cent United States postage stamp. By this arrangement a person iu the United States can furnish his correspondent in either of the signatory foreign countries with a postage stamp with which to prepay postage on a reply to his letter. It is believed by the depart nieut that it will be very helpful to business men seeking to develop busi ness in a foreign country. The rate on foreign letters will be reduced to 5 cents for the first ounce and 3 cents for each additional ounce or fraction thereof. Previously the rate has been 5 cents a half ounce or more than twice as much for the letters weighing more than one ounce Accepted Position at Altoona. John Boyer. who has beeu employ ed at the office of the Danville Struct ural Tubing company iu a clerical capacity, left Saturday for Altoona, where ho has accepted a position in the freight department of the Pennsyl vania railroad. Nagle-Raver. Hurley A. Nagle, an attteudaut at the State hospital for the insane and Miss Kathryu B. Raver, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Charles W. Raver, were married Saturday evening at 7 o'clock. The ceremony was performed by the bride's father. Banner Crop.

Mrs. Mary Neblings and then when about to lie captured killed himself The Nebliugs keep a boarding house and Orouiu was one of the boarders. He fell in love with the girl, who is very pretty. Several times he proposed marriage, hut each time was rejected, i Sunday night he repeatedjhis proposal and was again told there was no hope ; for him, when (lie swore that if he' i could not have her no other man should. Monday morning he went to work as usual and about 11 :50 o'clock : quit work, went home and asked her mother where Jennie was. On being I told that she was upstairs,Croniu went | up, met her in the hallway and asked | her for the last time if she would j marry him. Again he was told "No", and without a word he drew a revolv j er anil shot the girl in the heart, kill ing her instantly. Mrs. Neblings heard the shot and started upstairs to see what was doing, when Croniu fired at i her, the hall passing through her arm. IHe then fled to the mountains, close | by. An alarm was given, the brick ! j works closed down and every man and j hoy as well as uianv women started in j pursuit of the murderer. About two i o'clock Monday afternoon a party ot j men overtook him on the top of Money j mountains, two miles from.the scene of the tragedy, and seeing that escape | was hopeless, the man turned his re volver toward himself. He was dead j when the posse reached him. Croniu j was abont thirty years old. He was an 1 industrious man, and it was mostly ' because of his age that tha girl spuru- J ed his love. Struck by Pick. Frank Shoemaker, a sectiou hand on the S. B. & 8., while working near 1 Ottawa yesterday was struck by a pick j wielded by a fellow workman. The I pick inflicted a severe gash in Mr. Shoemaker's back. The injured mau was taken to Strawberry Ridge,where Dr. Snyder dressed the wound. Hendrickson Reunion.

In any condition of the female system, i Dr. l'ierce's Favorite Prescription can do j only good—never harm. Its whole effect Is to strengthen, invigorate and regulato ! the whole female system and especially i the pelvic organs. When these are de- ! ranged in function or affected by disease, I the stomach and other organs of digestion become sympathetically deranged, the nerves are weakened, and a long list of bad, unpleasant symptoms follow. Too much must not be expected of this "Fa vorite Prescription." It will not porform miracles: will not cure tumors—no med icine will. It will often prevent them, If taken in time, and thus the operating table and the surgeon's knife may be i avoided.
