There Is a deadlock In the republican congressional conference called at Kit-tanning yesterday for the purpose of nominating a candidate to represent the Twenty-first district The district is composed of Armstrong, Westmoreland, Jefferson and Indian counties, each being represented by three conferees. The candidates are Congressman D. B. Hetner, of Kittanning, the present Incumbent; ex-Senator fi.

E. Robblns, of Oreensburg; Mai. T. D. Cunningham, of Plairsvllle, and ex-Congressman A.

C. White, of Brookville. The convention opened at 2 o'clock vesterdav afternoon and adjourned, after the fourth ballot, until evening, when eight more ballots were taken. S. M.

Jack, of Indiana, was chosen chairman, and W. D. Patton, of Armstrong, secretary. The conferees for Helner are John wick, Kittanning: John F. Whitworth and W.

D. Patton. For MaJ. Cunningham, S. M.

West Newton, voting and fighting for him. The conferees of the various counties are still firm for their respective candidates and it looks as though it would take several months to breuk the deadlock. The convention reassembled at 10 o'clock this, morning. The republican conferees the Sixteenth congressional district met yesterday at Wllliamsport and nominated Hon. H.

B. packer, of Wellsboro, of Tioga county. The nomination created a great deal of dissatisfaction, especially among supporters of Congressman Leonard, a Quay man, who was candidate for re-nomlnation. Two years ago the contest was equally bitter, Leonard finally defeating Packer, after a deadlock that lasted several weeks. The conferees of the Twentieth district will meet in Bedford to-morrow.

There Is a very bitter contest waging over the conferees from Bedford county. J. E. Thropp, who claims Bedford county as his residence, was opposed by Hon. J.

D. Hicks, of Blair county, at the primary election. Hicks really carried the county, but was deprived of his victory In the county convention by- the arbitrary cpnduct of its chairman. A bitter fight was had in the convention, and the convention adjourned with an appeal from the ruling of the chairman pending. There was no decision by the convention as to who caiYied the county.

This) throws the fight into the- congressional cenferonce. The sentiment Is strongly for Hicks, although the people of this county would be satisfied with the nomination of Koo-ser, of Somerset, or Evans, of Cambria, who are also candidates for the nomination. There may be a protracted deadlock. The populists of Crawford county held their county convention yesterday. About one-third of the election precincts were represented.

A fusion with the democrats Is proposed and accordingly the pops named half of the ticket and left the other half for the democrats, who will hold their convention next week. The candidacy of Hon. J. C. Sibley for congress was endorsed and resolutions favor-lnsr unlimited free coinage of silver were Here Officer Frank Yeager sang: Faille Welsh was bashful, Sallie Wels-h Is shy; She was very drunk, For she was very dry.

The exception alleged that the accountant should be surcharged with the value of the deced ent's Interest In the firm of Burns Marx, operating the Hotel White, McKees port. The court says; "It appears from the testimony that the firm started business with borrowed cap! tal, which was not repaid; that Its assets were barely sufficient to pay Its debts, and that the accountant wisely transfer red the decedent's Interest to the surviving partner, upon his assumption of the firm debts.

These exceptions, therefore, can not be sustained." The other exception was that accountant! should be charged with the amount of a beneficial certificate on the life of the of which ware received by him as assignee, of the certlllcate, it was onginany payable to George If.

ANDERSON'S SECOND WIFE.

HER FOSTER MOTHER TELLS OF HER MARRIAGE. Did Kot Know of the Death Intll After the Body Had Been Burled. The Husband Reported That the Foster Parents Were in Europe. Mrs. Joseph Kellhaucker, of 217 South Highland avenue, who had adopted Ida Dalzell, Dr.

Anderson's seoond wife, takes exception to the statements made In refar-erence to her daughter. She said that Dr. Anderson continually ran after her and that she never sought his company. This morning a Press reporter called at the home of Mrs. Kellhaucker, and In speaking of the matter, she said: would not talk upon the subject unless were for the purpose of setting the g'rl in the mr light before the public.

nevertheless, I think the publlo should know the true state of affairs, Ida was a pretty and Innocent girl when she first became ac-qualnted with Dr. Her a mother still living in New Brighton, but being in poor clrotimstnnees could not support her. We adopted the girl and took is much Interest In her weltare as though she were our own. She was of a quiet and retired disposition, and very rarely left the house. hen she became, acquainted with lr.

Anderson 1 cautioned her, as we had heard much concerning him, and I tried to Induce her to avoid his comi nny. In fact I went so far as to refuse him admittance to my house. In February she loft the house and married the doctor. The earn evening they returned and I allowed them to remain In my house. They remained for ten days, and during this time Dr.

Anderson had been drinking considerably. I agal ntrifd to Induce Ida to leave him, "When Dr. Anderson left the house 10 days afterward he said nothing about paying me for the trouble I had Tn keeping him. He did not return, although he said when leaving that he was going to Allegheny to engage a room for himself and his wife. He finally came back to the house and I positively refused to allow him admittance.

His wife, however, held a conversation with him, each time being told that he had no money for her support. I had plenty to provide for the girl and I tried to Induce her to remain with me. Matters got worse and finally I con eluded thut I could not urevall upon her to remain. One day Dr. Anderson came to the house and took his wife away.

He said he was going to Alletlheny. Instead of doing this he took her to New Brighton three weeks ago. What transpired thnre I learned onl ya few days since. After Ida's death, Dr. Anderson told her rflends that my husband and I had gone to Europe and would not return before fall.

By this ruse I was kept from Knowing anything Hbout her death. Dr, Anaerson is a bad man and ne shall cor talnly be punished for his crime. My daughter fully realised her condition when she went with him to New Brighton and she expected to be treated properly. She was not a delicate girl, but rather roDust.

Each treason we are Invaded with varl' ous cranks who claim to be the Inventors of Infallible mosquito destroyers or of pre ventlves otfatnst their marvelous powers of hltlnir. Evervthinr that human In genuity could suggest has been tried, from kerosene to sulphur, smoking out and protanity, DUt un now notning nas succeeded, as most of us are doubtless well aware, says the New Tork Herald.

GI STAVH Rl DAT FOI XD DYIXG IN BAILEY'S WOODS. SAID HE HAD BEEN ATTACKED And Shot hy an Cnknown Man While Coins; Home The Story Discredited by the Police Evidence That the Wound Was Self-inflicted A Revolver and Cartridges Found. Gustav Rudat, a contracting painter, living on Arlington avenue.

Twenty-seventh ward, shot himself about 8 o'clock this morning In Bailey's woods back of Mt. Washington, within a few hundred yards of the city line, Rudat was round about 10 o'clock by a man who as passing, and the police were notified. He was removed to the South Bide hospital. When found ho was sitting under a tree on ths hillside. According to his own statement he was taking a short cut home when he passed a stranger who passed the time of day and then shot him.

The bullet entered his left breast Just below the heart and passed entirely through hto body, coming out at the back. Ha said that after he was shot he- walk- coum. toward home. Christopher Wslfran, who lives at the outskirts of Mt. Washington, suld thftt ha heard a shot in the direction of Bailev'a woods shortly before 7 o'clock, but the shooting could not have occurred at that time, as Rudat was seen in a saloon bv several persons shortly before 8 o'clock.

Upon the arrival of the police, Lieut. Booker took Rudat's statement and Ac elded that he was not telling the truth and that he had shot himself. Following out this theory, a search was made for the revolver. It was found about 100 feet from the place where Rudat was lying, and near it was a box of cartridges. The revolver was new and was made by the Johnston Arms company.

It was a center fire, and self-acting. Ore cylinder was empty, and an empty shell was found lying In ths weeds. There was another empty shell that had not been removed from the cylinder. Rudat is a contracting painter living on Arlington avenue. Ha is married and has six children.

He Is secretary of the South Side German military organisation known as the Peutscher Krleger. It Is supposed that he Is financially Insolvent and was determined upon ending his troubles by suicide. In the face of the facts, his story that he had been shot by a man he had never seen before will not hold good. Rudat refused to make any statement to the hospital authorities. The physicians say he cannot recover.

GOOD FOl.XT OS URYAW. A Letter Found Thnt Defends the Iloitlnff Gold Democrats. Indianapolis, Aug. 10. Chairman Bynum, executive committee chairman of the national democratic party stated today that It can now be positively asserted that every state In the union except Nevada, Idaho and Utah, and perhaps ono southern state, will send a full delegation to the' Indianapolis convention.

The sound money headquarters havei secured what thc-y consider a mighty valuable! campaign document In the shape of a letter, alleged to have been written bv Nominee Bryan to Georue M. Curdn, of Dallas, February IS, 181X1. The letter, they say, justifies the sound money bolt and destroys the criticisms of Mr, Bryan upon the action of the gold men at Chicago. Here are the extracts that will be spread broadcast by the committee "As early as 1891. when the democratic state convention of Nebraska, controlled by candidates for the federal offices, en- dorswl the president's financial policy, I stated that would not roiiow the demo oral Dartv to a gold standard.

"Directed by my conscience and by my best Judgment, 1 shall use that vote to defend my rights, protect my family and advance tne weirare oi socity. xo convention can rob me of my convictions, nor can any oarty orgunlaatlon drive me to consulre against the prosperity and liberty or my country. "Men who honestly differ upon the par amount public ouestlons cannot afford to he harmonised by a national convention. Mr. Cleveland would not sunnort a frpe silver candidate for the presidency and he should not do so If he really believes that free coinage would ruin the country, because a man's duty to his country Is higher than a man's duty to nis party."

A SINGLE AGENCY PROPOSED, With No Firm Brands aad a Disinterested Head SalesmanManufacturers Speak Favorably of It. The Traction Men Will Protest Against Sew Sehedale To-Day. The proposition to form a firmer combination of wind glass manufacturers by combining the two selling agencies and eradicating all firm brands, as ex-clus! ely announced in Saturday's Press, was under consideration at the Mononga-hela house this morning at a special meeting of manufacturers of Pittsburg and the Indiana gas belt.

Every producer of prominence In the two districts was present. The plan has been talked of In trade circles for some time, and as the sentiment favoring It Is apparently unanimous, it Is probable that the new combination will be formed without much preliminary discussion. Ninety per cent, of the manufacturer, It Is said, have already agreed to It, of which James A. Chambers is one. Besides a combination of agencies and a discontinuance, of special firm brands there Is also a proposition to have the agencv put in charge of some person other than a window gnea manufacturer.

It Is only upon thra proposition, as the Press has already Hated, that there is likely to be any difference. H. Sellers Molvee and other large manufacturers favor dropping all firm brands and calling the entire output American window but there are others no contend' hat a retention of the hiiinds la necessary to preserve a standard, With th Individual llrm brand on each, box It will be easy to tell where the good and bad glass comes from. To meet thin objection It is suRKfflted that in order lo keep up the standard a number of Inspectors he selected to visit the factories and throw out any glass that is not good. Jt Is also suggested that the Inspectors visit tbe factories in rotation so that no partiality will be shown.

I'pon the selection of a man to tak charge of the agency there Is also considerable discussion. T. F. Hnrt, the Indiana aent, tins positively -ref used to allow his name to be mentioned in connection with the matter. A manufartner steteil at the Monongahela house this morninir that a Cincinnati man would likely be chosen for the position, and that Mr.

Allison, of the Pittsburg agency, will likely be retained to assist him. The window glass combination laaf week seemed to be In danger of but with the prospect of a stronger comblij-r atlon, controlling more factories, a greatefr feellng of confidence prevails In the trade. The details of the new organization will likely be settled upon to-day. The new schedule of the Puqiifesne) branch of the Consolidated Traction company will be discussed by President Ma-gee and a committee representing the employes at 4 o'clock this afternoon. The men objeet to that portion of tlftj schedule which dtprlves the old men of the early runs, an arrangement usually dictated by precedent.

It Is Mid that the new men have been given the choice of the runs In many Instances and the old men have hnd no deference whatever shown them In tbe matter. The committee will present the case to President Ma-gee, together with a plea for the desired revision. The wage committee of the Wlm1o Glass Workers' association and the exd cutlve board hold a meeting this af ternoon to discuea the prooosltlnn present ed by the manufacturers' committee at ths conference yesterday.
