HORRIBLE DEATH.
An Almost Unrecognizable Mats df Flesh

A heartrondlng and distressing tcono was
occasioned in South Pear alloy this morning
when one of tho ambulances of tho 1 & It,

was almost distracted by grief. Mrs. Mculski
is tbo mother of several children.
Tho husband left homo for his work early
this morning. Shortly aftor starting work
he prepared a heavy charge for a blast, lie
inserted tbo squib, but whether he shortened
it or not could not ho learned. No sooner
had ho applied tho match than tho chargo
exploded, not oven allowing tho victim timo
to turn around and seok a placo of safety.
Tho entire charge struck him in the faco and
tbo upper part of the body. When tho re
mains of tbe man wcro laid bare at his resi
dence it was almost impossible to recognize
them as that of a human being. The faco
was crushed in and presented a horriblo mass
of battered bones and torn pieces of flesh
thickly clotted with blood. Ills neck was
also broken.

of West Wnswlck, Nomin

Special to ItvqMtMSl IteaAi.n.
I FOTTSVILLK, AUGUST 33,
Tho Pemoeiusc braves assembled in con
vention hero ttifj morning for tho purpose of
nominating banjlldates for Jmlge, Sheriff,
Poor Director and Jury Commissioner. And
tholr task was Ho easy one, by any means.
Tho exceptional y strong tioket placed In tho
field by the Hiimbllcans last week, caused
tho lenders of tlfo "untorrified" many sleep
less nights in tllkr endeavor to put forward
a ticket that caij successfully copo with their
opponents. j
Tho primaries held on Saturday, in tbo
Democratic strongholds, wero attended with
littlo Interest, itpecially was this tho case at
Tamaqua. Fortthe first time "within tho
memory of tilt oldest iuhabltaut," there
was no election held in tho South ward of
Tamaqua. This Is accounted f r, as stated
by a dclegato frum that placo this morning,
because big John Ulrich was away from
homo. This apparent indifference and lack
of Interest on (lio part of tho Democratic
voters cannot be justified on tho pica that
thero wore not sufficient candidates for tho
tlireo olllcos to ho filled. Many take tho
vlow, held by a groat many Democrats, that
this being an oil-year tbo voters talto little
interest in the contest. If Chairman Marr
fails to inject more luterest and enthusiasm
in the rank and fllo of his party than Is now
manifested, the Democratic candidates will
bo defeated by largo majorities.
In many districts thero wero no contests,
tho delegates arriving hero unpledged and at
liberty to cast their voto for tho candidate
of their Individual choice or tho "man that
saw them last." For this reason tho political
prophets could not ventuto a prediction,
previous to tho assembling of tbo conven
tion what names would graco tho ticket.
Chairman Marr and his secretaries were
kopt busy last evening and this morning en
rolling tbo dclogatesas tbey put in an appear-
o. They had ovorything in apple pie ordor,
however, when the convention convened.
Tho chairman has held consultations with tho
party leaders quito often within tbo past
week. The pretty mix-up in which thoy
found tbo judipial nomination and tho plat
form, has been tho cause of theso astute
leaders conferring ono with tho other.
Tho Democrats fouud themselves botween
two fires In considering tho monetary plank
of their platform. It is truo that tho selec
tion of Chairman Marr was looked upon as a
victory for the rabid irco silveritcs and a
notice to tbe gold wing that the latter
wcro not wanted in tho councils of tho
party, and it is equally truo that among the
"braves" directing the business of the con
vention this morning those who supported
Palmor and Bucknor last fall wcro conspicuous
by their absence. But Chairman Marr and
others wanted harmony, and tbey wero will
ing to sccuro it by making a deceptive plat
form ; in other words, a clean straddle
Others favored tho elimination of all na
tional questions, and makiug the fight on
stato and local Issues. This was tbe condi
tton of affairs which confronted tho leaders at
an early hour this morning, and It was
somotimo later when tho question was finally
decided and tho draft of tbo platform sub
sequently presented to tho convention agreed
upon.
Judge Bechtol's nomination by tho Repub
licans was anothor nut our friends tho enomy
wero called upon to crack. Tho members of
tho Democratic Standing Conunittco camo in
for a great deal of censure, for tbclr failuro
to call tbe convention at an earlier dato than
that of tbo Republicans, and thus avoid this
perplexing dilemmla. Ono of tho ablest
attorneys at tbo Bar has given It as his opin
ion that Bcchtel's name cannot appear on
moro than ono ticket, but notwithstanding
tbls tbe Democratic managers profess to
bcllovo tho law in question is unconstitu
tional and will demand an opinion on the
question from stato authorities. Thoy recog
nize that tho nomination of Beohtel will
strengthen the eutiro Republican ticket, and
that to refuse tho nomination tendered him
by the Republicans would placo Bechtcl in an
unfavorable light and would stamp him as a
partisan. It was a position that required tho
use of his best diplomacy ,and much persuasion
on the part of his frionds to keep many of tho
workers In line, many of whom demanded
that ho decline the Bepubllcau nomination.
If lie failed to do this it was openly declared
by many that a Republican would bo placed
at tho head of the Democratic tioket. Cooler
and wiser heads, in tho wco sina' hours of
the morning, finally decided upon a plan,
which was to nominate Bechtel, and then
leave to his own discretion which nomination
ho shall accept. He must decline one, and It
was generally understood that, being a life
long Demoorat, he would naturally accept
tho latter nomination.
With the rising of tbe sun this morning
no definite plan had been decided upon by
the leaders and candidates, for the reason
that everybody was at sea as to which of the
three candidates for Sheriff would be nomi
nated. Both liiggint and Toole gave It out
that they weuld be nominated, while Dr.
Sallada was liko tho coon and tbo 'possum,
and awaited developments. Ho depends
upon location and nationality to pull him
through. At an early hour this morning it
looked like Toole. He apparently has the
workers with him, and that cuts a big figure
in a political convention, especially one of the
character of this oue, which appears to be out
of the control of the managers. The friends
of Soanlan, Shenandoah's candidate for Poor
Director, early realised that their only
chance for success depended upon securing
tho nomination of a German for Sheriff,
heuee they naturally desired tho Shrievalty
plum to go to Sallada.
The shrewd manipulators and wire pullers,
who desired party suoeess even nt the sacrifice
of their Individual choice, realised that
Toole would bo a weak candidate for
reasons that wonld bo made plain in the ap
proaching campaign, but they were powerless
to control thoveonventlon. Tbo attempt to
form n slate- met with little encouragement ;
in fact the candidates themselves would not
enter into a combination. Kadi had sufficient
confidence In this Individual strength to be-
lelve that he would be nominated. Thus
tbo spectacle was presented to-day a Demo
cratic convention, with the "slate" makers
outofaiob. In this respect the convention
of to-day was similar to that of last Monday.
A Democratic convention without James B.
Rellly's presence is a novel thing in Schuyl
kill politics, but this spectnelo was presented
to the "faithful" to-day. The United States
Marshal was in town Saturday and yester
day, but ho hoarded an early train tbls morn
ing for Philadelphia perhaps to save him
self from any entanglements that might bo
prejudicial to any future hopes ho may en
tertain. Chairman Marr was prompt in putting in
an appearance, but the delegates were very
tardy. It was 10:30 when a sufficient num
ber had arrived to open tbe convention,
which was done by the Chairman In n short
speech. The culling of the roll was next In 1
order, TJte Secretaries of tho convention
went : M. P. McLaughlin, Harry Juugkurth,
John D. Brennan, K. I.. Keane and Myer
Strouso.
H. J. Muldoon, of Sbeiandoah, was elected
permanent chairman by acclamation his
selection having been agreed upon last night
by tho different candidates, being accept
able to all. Mr. Muldoon was escorted to tho
platform and accepted the honor in bis well
known style of oratory. Ho predicted that
tho nominees cf the convention would be
elected by good majorities.
Tbo committee on resolutions consisted of
P. F. Mouaglian, of Shenandoah, chairman ;
Georgo E. Wagner, Orwigslmrg; William
Audcrsou, New Boston ; J. I. lllakslce,
Delano; Morgan W. Fohr, Landingvlllo ;
Edward Schliokcr, Pottsvillo; William
Dully, Mlnersvillo.
O. P. Bechtel was nominated for Judgo,
followed by a motion that John F. Whalcu be
tho candidate. Tho chairman refused to enter
tain tho last motion becsuso the mover had
not the consent of Mr. Whalen. Tho
refusal of tho chair to entertain tbo
motion, caused considerable uproar, and it
was ovidont from tho remarks of a number
of dologates that they Wcro reluctant in giv
ing Bechtel the nomination unless they had
assurance that he would decline tho Republi
can nomination. It was stated that ho would
accopt the Democratic nomination 'if ten
dered him.
Nominations for Sheriff was called for and
tho following were placed in nomination :
T. J. Uigglns, Shenandoah; John Toole,
Mlnorsvlllo, and Dr. J. W. Sallada, Potts
villo. Tho result of tho first ballot was as
follows :

UiaOINS DEPKATED.
Tho contest on tbo nomination for Sheriff
was quickly settled after tbo retirement of
Dr. Sallada, tho most of his delegates turn
Ing their strength over to Toolo on tuo sec
ond ballot and nominating him. Tho result
of this ballot was as follows :

Upon tho announcement of this result,
which had a very depressing and disappoint
ing effect upon Uigglns' adhoronts, tho con
vention adjourned until 2 p. m.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
Tho convention adjourned to meet nt2
o'clock, but It was within a few ininutos of 3
o'clock whon tho Chalrm-in rapped for order.
Tho delay was caused by tho committee on
resolutions. The typewritten form prosonted
to them did not meet with their approval.
Tho bono of contention is said to bavo been
tho financial plank. They could not agree
and tbo chairman called for nominations for
Director of tho Poor until tho committeo
could settle their differences.
Tho following nominations were made:
M. J. Scunlan, Shenandoah ; M. H. Master,
Shenandoah; Daniel A. Croll, Pottsvillo;
P. A. Bissell, Mahanoy City ; Martin J.
Lynch, Mahanoy City; John Walbome,

Mr. Master withdrew his namo with the
statement that ho didn't authorize anyone to

The Result Wan a Stormy Meeting and the

Flan to Replenish the Strikers'
Treasury.
Pittsburg, Aug. 23. Itellfflnus services
were held In neveral of the strikers'
campa yesterday, and all were largely
attended, but notwithstanding the re
ligious spirit pervading the camps a'
conflict between workers and strikers
took Dlace In the afternoon, during
which three strikers were badly hurt,
but none are In a serious condition.
Five of the men who are working for
the New York and Cleveland Gas Coal
company went to William Seamon's
boarding house, about one and a half
miles from Oak Hill tipple, where a
number of strikers are quartered, for
the purpose of persuading the strikers
to go to work. The meeting; was a
stormy one. and resulted in Antonio
Podasky being shot near the heart, the
bullet going almost through his body.
Grongron Plmold wns shot in the eye
and Hotiete Dalmeso was cut with a
razor. The Injured men are all strikers.
The aggressive workmen escaped be
fore the men on the Oak H1U camp
were awure of the fight.
In addition to the general missionary
work for tho week the leaders have
decided to direct especial work to the
MICHAEL D. nATCHFOP.D.
prevention of operations at the Sandy
Creek mine. Tho strikers say that they
will resume their marching tactics,
claiming that under the ruling of Judge
Goff, In the West Virginia cases, they
are, given this right.
Samuel DeArmltt says that 150 to
175 men are at work in the Plum Creek
mine today. It Is announced that the
New York and Cleveland Gas Coal com
pany will make eight more evictions
today from eight different company
houses. It is not probable that there
will be any trouble.
The sheriff does not say what course
he will pursue should marching begin,
but thinks he is ready to meet every
emergency.
Sympathy for the strikers by the
farmers and citizens is not diminish
ing in the least. Yesterday there were
about 700 visitors to the camp at Sandy
Creek, many of the farmers who came
bringing wagon loads of provisions.
Citizens of New Texas sent word that
they had plenty of food for the men,
and wanted them to call on them when
needed.
The developments will be watched
with unusual Interest this week. Both
sides were apparently at rest yester
day, but it -was developed that at the
conference today there will probably
be a disruption. Ily many It is be
lieved that II. D. Uatchford, the na
tional president of the miners' or
ganization, will not be present. It is
claimed that he will stick to his origi
nal assertion that he will not agree to
arbitrate unless all the states in
volved are represented. It Is a well
known fact that the operators of other
states will not join the local operators
In the movement for arbitration. If
Katchford is , obdurate the conference
will be useless.
From a reliable source is was learned
that If the ouerators start mines on
the lines laid down other mines will
also be started by the miners. It Is
proposed to select operators who aro
not represented at the conference, and
who are friendly to the miners. They
will be given permission to mine coal
at the rate demanded, and the coal
stored, liy this means it Is expected
to get a fund from the union miners
that happen to be working, and with
this fund pay the expenses of a fight
against Imported labor. The miners'
officials are making arrangements to
have a fund on hand to send foreign
labor home just as fast as It arrives.
With mines operated under iho juris
diction of the labor leaderB, and with
operators that are friendly, who reap
a profit, they hope to have available
a large fund. Tbls plan has been out
lined, and wilt be submitted to the
national officials If the conference
proves a failure.
