The Press man made a still hunt for him, but could not find him. Clarke's failure to file the paper gave rise to a rumor that he was afraid to take the matter into court for fear that the whole proceedings of the convention which nominated him would be opened up. "It looks very much to me," said a prominent democrat, "as though Clarke and Foley are afraid of each other. Foley fears that Clarke will have his iiame knocked, off the ballot, and Clarke, Is frightened at the prospect of having (he proceedings of the convention brought out In open court, in which event it is very likely that the court would declare the proceedings of the convention illegal and knock both men off the regular, ticket For my part, I supported Foley In the convention, but I would like to ses the case get into the courts.

It would settle the question of the legality of the nominations, not only for county commissioner, but also the chairmanship of the county committee. I hold that the convention hod no right to elect Joseph Howley chnlrman and that his election was ir-rtfcular." i Clarke friends got hold of another Interesting bit of Information in connection with the commisslonershlu contest which would doubtless be of some value to them if Clarke musters enough courage to take the case Into court. It is to the effect that Attorney W. J. Brennen, who filed Foley's nomination paper on Tuesday, altered the paper after the affidavit had been duly made.

The heading to the paper when first handed to the county commissioners designated the document as that of the "Regular democrat lo party. The clerk in charge of the office said he could not acceptp it, as he already had papers) on tile bearing the same name. Attorney Brennen is reported to have made the following reply; "Well, that doesn't matter, I can easily fix the paper," Suiting the action to the word the attorney drew his pen through the word "democratic," thus making the beading of the paper, "The Regular Party." It was then handed to the clerk, and acceptped and filed. Charles A. Fagan said this morning that he thought this action of Mr.

Brennen would invalidate the paper. He declares Mr. Brennen had no right to alter the paper after the affidavit had been mads. He characterizes the action as a flagrant violation of the law. Clarke's friends said this morning that If he enters proceedings In court against Foley, he will use this incident as evidence of the irregular practices of Brennen and otherJ H.

C. O'Connell. secretary of the sound- money democratic county committee, is a member of the present democratic county committee. In commenting on the dispute between Foley ad Clarke this morning, he Bald: "In my opinion neither oiey nor warns are entiueo to a place on me aemooratio nonet, ror i ao not con rider their nomination regular. The whole trouble In this matter is due to the failure of ex-County Chairman Fagan to call a meeting of the county committee before resigning.

His resignation should have been handed to the county committee and not to the county convention. The convention had no authority to make Jo- sepn wowiey cnairman or tne county committee at this In fact, Howley's) term does not beKln until next April, when the new county committeemen take their seats. Howley had no right to preside over the convention, and, therefore, alt nominations made by the convention while he presided were Irregular. Mr. Brennen likewise had no right to preside, and Foley's nomination was also Irregular However, as It would take a Philadel- phla lawyer to bring the democracy out of the tangle It is now in, I suppose It is lust as well to let bygones be bveones."

Li. Magee returned from hamsburg on me soum western express at tnis morning. He has been In Harrlsburg while the legality ot nig nomination by the democratic convention for state renator was being considered by the court Ha expresseu himself, as netin; very much Jileased over the decision rendered by udge McPheraon, and said that he thought ths decision was satisfactory to all "good" democrats, only a small faction being opposed to him. He said his chances appeared to be growing brighter each day, and that he thought ne would be elected. He also said that every indication pointed to the election of McKlnley and Hobart by an overwhelming majority.

W. T. Kerr, who was announced as candidate for register on the fusion ticket, mis morning withdrew his name by filing notice of withdrawal with the county commissioners, as required by law. He M.U jit uciti to the use of hla name on the ticket and did not know tnat he had been named until some weeks afterward, having been out of the city for tome time. A crowd of Woods 'Run hoodlums, who professed to be free allverites, tried to break up a republican mass meeting in the Ninth ward, Allegheny, last night but were unsuccessful.
