In Ilarrlstmrg, last week, on calling
up the bribery case, much surprise was
caused by W. H. Kemble, Charles B.
Halter, W. F. Itumberger, and Jesse It.
Crawford entered pleas of guilty. There
had been talk for several weeks that the
defense had a surprise In store for the
prosecution, but it was generally sup
posed by those who had heard these pre
dictions that some unprotected point of
the commonwealth would attacked.
The penalty which the act of Assembly
attaches to the offense of corrupt solici
tation, to which Messrs. Kemble, Baiter,
Crawford and Rumberger have several
ly pleaded guilty, is a line not exceeding
$1,000, and Imprisonment not exceeding
one year.
Emll retroff who was tried for same
offence was found guilty.
President Hates in his message to
the Senate upon the lnter-oceanic canal
question reaffirms the Monroe doctrine
with great emphasis. If a canal is cut
across the American isthmus, it must be
under American control. The protec
tion of the commercial Interests of the
United States and the interests of such
American citizens as may invest their
capital in this enterprise can not be en
trusted to any foreign power. A canal
across the Isthmus will be a part of the
ocean . highway between the Atlantic
and Pacific States, and would be, as It
were, a continuance of our own coast
line, while Its relations to " our power
and prosperity as a nation, to our means
of defense, and our unity ,peace and safe
ty, are matters of paramount concern to
the people of the United States."
The California Trouble
San Francisco, March 0. A mani
festo will be published to-morrow morn
ing by the citizens' protective union giv
ing the motives for their organization in
order that the organization may be prop
erly understood. They declare the ob
jects and purposes of the organization to
be, first, the preservation of the public
peace ; second, the protection of life and
property ; third, the restoration of con
fidence in the security of life and prop
erty from all violence fourth, the re
suscitation of the legitimate commerce,
industries and business of the people.
All of which they expect to accomplish
within the law.
They declare that the time has come
when a line must be drawn between
those who are in favor of law and order
and those who are for riot. All good
citizens are invited to join. There is no
neutrality. In this crisis they can only
be excused by extreme age or pitiable
cowardice.
Dr. Hahn's Cremation Accomplished.
Dr. Hahn's body arrived at Washing
ton Pa., from New York on the evening
of the 9th lnst., accompanied by Dr.
Happel and A. Kauffman, father-in-law
of the deceased. The body was cased In
a plain iron coffin and immediately con
veyed to the crematory. It was then
placed in an iron crib and .covered with
a sheet saturated in alum. No service
were held. At 8:05 r. si., the body was
carried to the retort room by four men
and shoved in head foremost. A slight
odor as of burning hair prevailed the
vicinity. In twenty minutes the sheet
began to expand, the bones of the feet
could be seen devoid of flesh, and at the
end of an hour the friends left satisfied.
Orders were given to have the ashes for
warded to New York.
Chinese Laborers Wanted In Mississippi.
St. Louis, March 8. Hon. Henry F.
Scharrett, a planter of Pass Christian,
Miss., is now here and says that in view
of the negro exodus from the south and
the disturbed condition of things In Cal
ifornia, the planters in his section have
canvassed the question to some extent
of attempting to obtain Chinese labor
ers. Correspondence has already been
had with one of the Chinese companies
and probably some Chinamen will bo
sent to work In south Mississippi in a
few weeks.
3T According to the Derrick's month
ly report 285 wells were completed with
ft dally production of 7,744 barrels,
against 342 In January, producing 0,228
barrels. On the last day of February
578 rigs were up and 480 wells drilling,
against 443 rigs and wells in January.
In consequence of the great activity the

A Big Haul.
Cheyenne, March, 10. A bold and
successful robbery of gold bullion occur
red at Hydney Neb., to-dny, while the
Union Pacific express agent Snyder was
at dinner. The amount taken is vari
ously estimated at from $120,000 to $200.
000. An entrance was e (Tec ted through
the floor of the express office.
LATER.
A telegram from Sydney Just received
states that the trensure has been recover
ed except $13,000. It was found under a
pile of coal near the Union Pacific track
where they had seen the robbers con
ceal something in the afternoon. They
are being pursued.
A Reckless Shooter.
Mr. Barker of Brown county, Illinois,
seeing his two female cousins approach
ing, said jocularly! "I'll give them a
salute." Drawing a revolver, he threw
his hand back over his head and pulled
the trigger. The first shot struck Bark
er's uncle in the head, and he fell dead.
The young man didn't see the result of
his first salute and fired again. This
time he hit a young man, who stood
near his uncle, and he died in forty min
utes. Barker was arrested and will be
tried for murder.
H. B. Claflin & Co., the extensive
New York dry goods merchants, have
been robbed of over $40,000 by Davis
Roberts, an old and trusted employee.
The case was worked up against him
very adroitly. Roberts was head cut
ter, and It was found that with the old
rags and waste cuttings, which were
bagged and sent to Faulkenburg every
three weeks, were bagged uncut velvet,
silk, etc. Foulkenberg only paid him ten
per cent, of the value of the goods.
Both have been arrested. Roberts has
two adult daughters and Is completely
broken down at his exposure.
Cairo, Illinois, March 7. Two weeks
ago George Kohl, a farm hand in the
employ of Fred. Whltcamp, Sr., report
ed that Whltcamp had been drowned by
falling into the Mississippi river. This
statement was at first believed, but la
ter, suspicion led to an investigation
which resulted in the arrest of Kohl,
who, to-day, confessed that be, assisted
by Whltcamp'B wlfe,had murdered him.
The body was found burled in the rear
of the stable on the premises. Mrs.
Whltcamp was arrested to day.
Osceola, March 7. The coal miners
have been on a strike here for two
weeks. The operators and miners held
a meeting yesterday, but the result of it
has not been made public. The proba
bilities are that work will not be resum
ed before the first of April. There has
been no trouble as yet.
Clearfield, Pa., March 7. The
strike of the coal miners in the Iloutz
dale district is in full blast, but no se
rious trouble has occurred. They will
probably resume work soon.
New York, March 7, Delegates from
various Irish societies and Hibernian or
ganizations in Brooklyn met this after
noon and decided not to parade on St.
Patrick's day, but to send the money
usually appropriated for such occasions
to the suffering poor of Ireland.
OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C, March 10, 1880.
The apparent new zeal of Mr. Tilden as
a Presidential candidate has given use to
much speculation as to its cause. The
general impression is , that tho apparent
Grant vlotory at the Harrisburg Conven
tion bad something to do with stiflening
his back bone. The nomination of Gener
al Grant undoubtedly would materially
Improve the Democratic chances of success;
and not simply because of tbe dissalinfao
tlon it would create in tbe republican party,
but because of tbe harmonizing inlluenoe it
would have on tbe Domocratio party and
tbe terrible weapon which it would place
in their bauds. Mr. Tilden is shrewd
enough to see that the third-term issue
would then supplant all others, and put
his party in a new light before the country.
His hopes are placed in tbe scheme of tbe
Cameron ring to force Grant upon the
Republican party, in spite of tbe apparent
demand for Iilaine by tbe masses. But it
is just possible that his hopes will not be
realized.
So far the friction in running tbe House
under the new rules has been greater than
any gala through their adoption, but this,
probably, will not continue. As tboy be
come familiar to tbe members, through
study and tbe very acute rulings of tbe
Speaker, business will move on smoothly.
That is, if businoss is presented for action.
So far there has been unprecedented delay
in reporting tbe appropriation bills, and an
apparent disinclination on tbe part of
members in both Houses to go on with
those already reported.
A long debate Is threatened over tbe
Fitz John Porter case. I spoke briefly of
tbe strength of Porter's chanoes in a recent
letter. Its weakness Is not in its merit or
demands, but in tbe fact that some Dem
ocrats as well as Republicans seem dispos
ed to make a party question of it, and work
for political advantage, instead of voting
as tboir judgment might dictate. Of tho
pnssnge of tbe relief bill, with tbe full
Domocratio vote, and the votes of some
ltepublioans in both Houses, there Is little
doubt.
In deciding that tho Federal election
laws were constitutions! the Supreme Court
has settled finally a question that had
become of great interest, and was likely to
enter Into legislation during tbe secsion.
Tbe Democratic party has not tbe power
now to repeal those laws, , and, after the
Courts decision, will hardly dare refuse to
make reasonable appropriations for carry
ing them out. Oi.ive.
