HARRITY'S DOWNFALL RATIFIED I
The Stato Convention Sustains the Selec
tion of Ouffey by a Vote of 290 to
134 A Row la the Convention
Stopped by the Police.
Heading, Pa., Sept. 1. The Demo
cratic state convention to nominate
candidates for auditor general and state
treasurer met in the Academy of Music
yesterday. A consplouous feature of
the decorations was a handsome banner
adorned with a portrait of William J.
Dryan and bearing the inscription,
"Liberty, Justice, Humanity, Equal
Righto to All, Special privileges to
None." - A hruBs band played "Stars
and Stripes Forever," and other popu
lar tunes while the delegates, of wh$m
there were 435, located themselves in
the seats set apart for them.
State Chairman Oarman called the
convention to order at 12:30 p. m., and
Introduced Congressman Ermentrout
as temporary chairman. His speccli
was liberally applauded, especially his
reference to, William J. Bryan.
The roll call was long and tedious,
owing to the number of substitutions.
There was a row over the substitution
of Charles Gallagher for George Coyle
In the Twenty-fifth district of Phila
delphia. Ex-City Chairman John J.
Curley also produced a substitution,
which he declared had been signed by
,Coyle, and denounced the Gallagher
document as a forgery. The conven
tion was in a uproar, and the sergeants-nt-arms
had some difficulty in restor
ing order. Mr. Curley was finally given
the seat, and the roll call proceeded.
After the calling of the roll John T.
Lenahan, of Wllkesbarre, claimed sev
eral of the delegates from Luzerne were
not regularly elected, and were not
entltlled tb seats. Chairman Ermen
trout refused to recognize Lenahan,
and declared the convention adjourned
for an hour. J.ohn T. Murphy, of Phila
delphia, a secretary, grabbed the gavel
fromj Ermentrout and attempted to
preside. Ermentrout tried to recover
thi) gavel, and a free fight ensued on
the stage. The police were called In to
iiuell the riot. Murphy was Anally
ejected from the stage and the belliger
ents ordered to take their seats. No
body was Injured in the scrimmage,
but much bad blood was engendered.
The convention then took a recess for
an hour.
When the convention reassembled,
at 3:25 o'clock, the force of policemen
in the hall had been reinforced, and
there were other evidences of prepara
tions to prevent a repltitlon of the dis
graceful scene that brought the early
session to a close.
Chairman Ermentrout announced
that the offending secretary, John T.
Murphy, of Philadelphia, would be ex
cluded from the stage. John T. Lena
han, of Luzerne, apologized to the con
vention for his share of the disturbance
and retired from the hall.
The committee on permanent organi
zation reported the name of R. W.
Irwin, of Washington, for permanent
chairman, and recommended the con
tinuation of the other temporary offl
cers, with the exception that C. W.
Zullck, of Northampton, replaced John
T. Murphy as one of the secretaries.
James Kerr, of Clearfield, chairman
of thp resolutions committee, read the
platform, which may be epitomized as
follows: Reaffirms th? Qhjcago free
silver platform of 1396; denounces.
Dlngley tariff law; declares In favor of
Cuba's struggle for liberty; denounces
alleged loaning of state funds to pri
vate individuals; sympathizes with the
coal miners; declares for trial by Jury;
supports the selection of James N, Guf
fey fpr the national chairman, In place
of William F. Harrlty; compliments
State Chairman G arm an.
Charles P, Donnelly, of Philadelphia
presented a minority report, striking
out the plank of the platform com
mending the recommendation of James
N. Guffey as national chairman in place
of William F. Harrlty.
There was a heated discussion on
this motion, Its supporters olafmfnfj
that the convention had no authority
in tne matter. une result ot tne vote
sustained the majority report by 290
to 134. Absent or not voting, 11. The
Philadelphia delegation stood 41 to 23
In favor of Mr. Harrlty.
Nomination of candidates, was the
next order of business. Charles B,
McConkey of Harrlsburg named ex-
Mayor William K. Verbeke of Dauphin
county for auditor general; W. H. Hol-
Joway of Wllllamsport named ex-As
semblyman Walker E. Rltter of Ly
coming. The vote reeulteat Wer, 2.84:
Verbeke, 43.
For the office of state treasurer James
P. Lteht, of Lebanon, named Mayor
Jacob Wetdel, of Reading, and C. F,
Murray, of Indiana, named M. E.
Brown, of Blalrsvllle, Indiana county,
Mr. Brown was the fortunate candi
date by a vote of 228 to 127.

nt Work,
Patrick Qulnn, an nged resident of Girard
vllle, was found dead in the cellar of his

Armour and Company Issue At
tachments and Attaok the
BUI of Sale.
As foreslifldowed In last evening's Issue of
the IIbrald, warrants were Issued against
Chlof Burgess Tabor on complaints of some
of tho creditors who were barred out by Mr.
Tabor's hill of sole to Mrs. Justyna Ssyd
lowski. After spending somo timo at Potto
villo yeetenlay afternoon In consultation
with Messrs. J. A. Murphy and John Can
field, tho Mahanoy City and Shenandoah
representatives of Swift and Company,
S. G. M. Hollopeter and John F. Whalen,
Ksqs., concluded to proceed with crim
inal prosecutions. Accordingly the parties
wont before Justice Nichols, nt l'otte
vlllo, nnd Mr. Murphy sworo out two war
rants for Mr. Tabor's arrest, alleging, first,
tho issuauco of a frandulont oheck for f 127
and, secondly, fraudulently transferring his
property, Mr. Canflold also sworo out a
warrant on tho latter charge. A Pottsvllle
constnblo took charge of tho warrants and
Mr. Tabor was arrested at about 8:30 last
evening, at tho entraneo to his ofllce. He
went to tho offlco of his counsel, M. M.
Burko, Esq., nnd Justice Toomey was sent
for. He prepared tho necessary bonds aud
waiter itynkawicz furnished Sl.BOO lail for
Mr. Tabor.
Meanwhllo tho representatives of Armour
& Co. wore activo in another direction aud
attachments wero issued through their coun
sel, W. P. Eamsey, Esq., of Mahanoy City.
Deputy Sheriff Itoberts executed tho writs
last night. IIo attached all tho fixtures and
other contents in tho shop at the corner of
Centre street and Market nlloy, a large quan
tity of tallow in barrels, the slaughterhouse,
horses, wagons, and in fact evervthlne Mr.
Tabor owned before executing the bill of sale
to Mrs. Justyna Szydlowski. Tho course
taken by the Armour people is an niuressivo
one in which tho creditor ignores tho bill of
sale and seizes tho property for possession.
Under this position tho Shoriff will hold tho
property until Mrs. Szydlowski establishes a
bona fide titlo to it. This question will como
up in tho court nt Pottevlllo next Mondav.
It is said Armour & Co. will have a largo
array of counsel on hand to fight tho case.
Mr. Tabor has stated to ono of his creditors
that ho made nothing by tho bill of sale. IIo
claims that ho owed Mrs. Szydlowski $1,500
and to protect hor claim ho sold out to her
Tor f 2,500, Mrs. Szydlowski paying him $1,000
and tho claim ho owed her going to make up
tho balance. Tho fl.000 ho received was
turned over to his fathor-in-law, Lowis
Ambroso, to pay a debt of that amount duo
him.
Tho Sheriff yostorday attached the shop nt
Mlnorsville that was included in Mr. Tabor's
bill of sale. This attachment was mado by
August Schall, of Pottsvlllo.
Ono of tho latest claimants is John Zulkis,
who keeps a saloon at tho corner of Lloyd

Citizen ia worth quoting: "So continuous
and genuine was tho amusement tho piece
afforded tho audience from beginning to end,
that whatever anxloty may have been felt

have vanished early in tho oveniug. A play
that can make a whole house lauiik and keen
