These arrests are the outcome of the
bribery case against IS. A. Van VrlUen-
benr, which comes up at T'ottsvllle to
day, and have been brought about by
Mr. Van Valkenherg and other friends
of Mr. Wanamaker, who now claim to
be prepared tp show that the bribery
with which Mr. Van Valkenberg Is
charged was really a "put up Job" on
the part of Messrs. Iteeder, Weiss and
Luckenbach, with the Intent of making
It appear that the Wanamaker people
were buying votes. Such wide publicity
was given to one side of the case at the
time of Van Valkenberg s arrest that
this new phase of the situation has
created a decided sensation.
Messrs. fteeder and Weiss both de
clared their desire for a speedy trial,
without the necessity of a preliminary
hearing, and gave ball In 2,000 each
for appearance. Mr. Luckenbach, when

last night considering methods of pros
ecuting the deputies.
Dr. Thodorovltch has secured affi
davits from a number of the marchers
which look bad for the sheriff and his
deputies. They declare that they were
advlrrd by the sherlrt not to march
through Hasleton, and they followed
his advice. On arriving nt the total
bend In the road near Lattlmer they
again found themselves confronted by
the sheriff, this time backed by the
army of deputies. As soon as they
reached the spot, the allldavlts declare,
Sheriff Martin stepped out and roughly
grabbed the foremost man by his coat
collar. With his other hand he thrust
a revolver Into his face and used
abusive language. The miner knocked
the sheriff's revolver arm from In front
of him and tried to wrench himself
from the ductal's grasp. Almost In
stantly, the allldavlt says, the order to
lire wbb given. The deputies were lined
up In a hollow square, the fourth Bide
of which was formed by the body of
strikers. This would possibly account
for the fact that so many were shot
In tve back and side.

had his railroad Uoket home hero In my

with him to pay his oar fare anywhere or tils
ferriage to Camden. And he 'conned' yon
nicely," rejoined Detective Hamm, "Why
didn't you bring him hero and lock him p
at the hall until yonr train went?" Amonr

was not expecting any difficulty.
"Well, let's see what wo can do," said

ernor told him that he had become con
vinced that he (Reeder) was drifting
away from his cnler; that l.eeuer, the
governor understood, was the author
of the Republican state platform, In
which Hastings' administration re
ceived slight notice; that Tteeder had
prevented an endorsement of the Hast
ings' administration in his own
(Northampton) county; that Reeder
had declared ho would Join Quay should
there be another political contest with
the governor, and that the governor
objected to Reoder's being on the bond
Indemnifying the state treasurer for
the payment of extra employes on the
roll of the state legislature not au
thorized by law.
In reply General Reeder declared tnat
he had refused to comment on the gov
ernor's interview with Senators Quay
and Penrose at the governor's express
request: that he was not the author of
the Republican state platform, though
he had prepared some of the planks,
which were afterwards amended be
yond recognition: that he had prepared
a plank endorsing the Hastings ad
ministration in the strongest terms,
which plank was laid on the table; that
he had opposed the amendment en
dorsing the governor In Northampton
county because it contained clauses
condemning the legislature and the Re
Dubllcan senator from the county, and
was offered merely to disorganize tho
convention; that he had never declared
he would aid Quav In opposing the
governor; and lastly, that he had
signed the Indemnity bond to protect
his friend, Treasurer Haywood, who
was acting In strict accordance with
precedent, from possible loss.

Rev. Dr. David H. Shields, an urias

that as early as Tuesday of last week
this had gone so far that the people
became frightened. By Thursday terror
was In the air, and many persons were
buying llrearms and hiding ammuni
tlon in their houses. Dr. Shields, him
self one of the most conspicuous ad
vocates of peaceful measures In tho
emergency, sold he advised asking for
state troops in the early port of the
week.

which -i- ot the men, now dead, wore

holes In It, one through the front, one
through an arm and the third through
the tails. In an Inside pocket was found
a cheap revolver. This had not been
used In tho riot, because the chambers
contained neither empty nor loaded
shells, and It could not have been tired
before the man was shot, because he
would have had no time to unload It.
This Is the only weapon contained In
the whole mob of miners, and the con
ditions indicate that the first shot
could not have come from their side.

LOST HIS PRISONER.
County Oetectlvo Amour a Victim of Alls
placed Confidence.
County Detective Richard Amour returned
to town from Nashville, Teun., at two o'clock
yesterday afternoon, but without Joe Kelser,
his prisoner. Tho officer stated that Kelser
oicaped from him at the Reading Terminal
hi Philadelphia. Ho said Keiser wanted to
telegraph bis friends here to meet him at
Dolauo. Amour says he pointed out tho
telegraph otllco and Keisor started for it.
Amour turned to pick up his satchel and
when ho turned around again his prisoner
had vanished. When Amour told his story
to tho bondsman who has spent nearly $400 in
tracing Kelser there was war In camp. The
bondsman said to tho ofllcer, ''You bring
that man hero, or thero will be trouble in tho
camp." Tho bondsman left for Philadelphia
last night to investigate tho officer's story of
tho escape. Amour says Keiser can't get far
as ho got the Philadelphia detectives on tho
case immediately after tho cscapo. When
asked why be didn't have his man hand
cuffed Amour said, bo did for the first 100
miles from Nashville, but the cuffs opened an
old wound on ono of Kciser's wrists and,
out of compassion, the cuffs were removed.
Kelser traveled 1,258 miles to Philadelphia,
the officer says, without handcuffs and made
no attempt to escape.
Tho Philadelphia Public Ledger publishes
the following account of tho case : "County
Detective Richard Amour, of Shenandoah,
Schuylkill county, reached Philadelphia
over the Pennsylvania Railroad about 3
o'clock yesterday morning, having in custody
Howard II. Keiser, alias II. J. Gibson, alias
Edward Mitchell, whom ho had brought from
Nashville on a requisition, charged with
highway robbery. When Defective Amour
left tho Reading Terminal several hours
later for Shenandoah he went empty-handed,
for the simply reason, as ho himself ad
mitted, that he had been the victim of mis
placed confidence in human nature. In
plain English, his prisoner had given him
the slip, and had suffered himself to bo
swallowed up in the human mass of over
1,000,000 souls constituting Philadelphia, and
County Detective Richard Amour, a stalwart
six-footer, had nothing else left to do but to
report his loss at detective headquarters aud
solicit the aid of the police In the task of re
covering the fugitive.
"When he called at headquarters, Detective
James P. Hamm was on duty and did not re
strain a hearty laugh when be heard Amour's
story aud learned that he .was 'no green
horn in the business,' but well acquainted
Willi Superintendent Liuden and had seen
service In the coal regions. Nor did Amour
wince when Detective Hamm called him "a
big chump" and told him he ought to have
known better. Amour said that Keiser, who
was known as a "crook," gambler, swindler
and all-around "grafter," or one who lives
by his wits, had been arrested In Nashville
ou tho charge of highway robbery, com
mitted in Schuylkill county. His apprehen
sion was effected by means of a photograph
which Amour had sent to Nashville authori
ties. Keiser, it Is said, had been subsisting
by practicing various small swindling games
upou visitors to the Nashville Exposition.
Amour said Keiser gave him no trouble at all
while coming home, aud when they reached
Chattanooga was permitted to walk around
the town for several hours on parole "to
stretch his legs," and that he caroo back aud
resumed his journey without making any
trouble. It was after reaching Philadelphia
t iat the tr.u 1j cume In. Amour ai d
Keiser, after reaching llriwd street station,
went ou down to the Terminal to take a train
for Shenaudoah. About 7 o'clock yesterday
morning, Amour says, Kelser asked permis
sion to go down stairs to send a telegram, and
that was the last Amour saw of him. When
he failed to return within au hour Amour

x TO CURB DYSPEPSIA.
A Hew Remedy Whloh Will Do It.
Chronic dyspepsia la considered by many
peoplo to be nearly If not qulto Incurable.
No good leason can bo given why they think
so except that perhaps thoy have tried
various remodlos without much, If any bene
fit. But tho progress In every branch of
medicine has been such that among other
things a lasting euro for Indigestion In 1U
chronic form as well as temporary has been
discovered and Is now placed beforo the
public strictly on Us merits as a permanent
rure for all stomach troubles or difficulties
with the dlgestlvo organs.
This new treatmont Is called Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets, bolng put up In tablet form
so us to bo easily takon and also to prescrvo
Its good qualities for an Indofinlto length of
tlmo.
This remedy has produced surprising effects
in the worst forms of Indigestion, and in
nmny coses where ordinary remedies failed
to give evon relief, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
havo fully cured.
Tho splendid results from using this prep
aration aro owing to tho fact that it Is pro
pared and Intended for Dyspepsia and
stoinseh troubles only. It Is not a cure-all
like so many advertised romedlcs, claiming
to cure everything under tho sun, but It Is
claimed that It Is a cortnln euro for Dys
pepsia and anyone suflerlug from any form
of Indigestion cannot fail to get permanent
relief and cure from its use.
It is so prepared and tho ingredients are of
such a nature that when the tablets arc taken
into tho stomach thoy digest tho food no
matter whether the stomach is In good work
ing order or not. You get sustenance and
strength to mind and body by reason of the
food being properly digested and at tho sarao
time tho much abused stomach it allowed to
rest and recuperate.
Notwithstanding tho great benefits to bo
derived from Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, tho
price is but 50c. for full sized package and all
druggists soli them.
