though he would not go into details
about it. He appeared excited and his
talk was somewhat Incoherent, giving
his hearers the impression that his
mind was clouded.
A conference of the besiegers was
held and It was decided not to attempt
at once to force the house, but to re-
tire to convenient cover and give Yan-
kel ll chance to come out and walk
Into a trap. The constables and some
of the citizens therefore remained on
the watch in the vicinity while Judge
Merwln returned to town. Some of the
townspeople who Were not in the party
this morning declared afterward that
more vigorous action should have been
taken, but those who saw Yankel's de.
termined appearance considered the
prudent plan of the besiegers the best.
As it was supposed that Yankcl has
provisions enough to last him three
or four days. there was a.possihility
tiiat the wait for him might belong.
Yankel Is Well spoken of throughout
the village. He Is 40 years old anti
single, living alone on his farm of
forty acres, which he has cultivated
with success for fifteen years. It is
said that he has shown signs of moodl-
neSs for some time. In a local paper
recently he Inserted advertisements to
the effect that there were certain arti-
cles at his house which the owners
must call for or he would not be re-
sponsible for them. In view of his
present actions, this Is now considered
as evidence of his peculiar mental con-
dition.
The predictions of n lotig siege were
happily dispelled Just after noon.
when Yankol consented to capitulatc
after several officers and citizens had
pleaded and argued with him for a
long time. He told the constables they
might enter anti that he would go with
them qtiicntly. They found him In his
bedroom putting on his shoes. There
was a shotgun anti a rifle with ilmmil—
nition In the room, but Yankcl was
true to his word and made no resist-
ance. He said one reason for his -
vious refusal to surrender was, .at
he feared that he might be taken ‘J an

POLITICS STILL COMPLICATED.
Spirit of Hostility Exists In Greater
New York.
NEW YORK. Sept. 30.-—The earlier
hours of the day brought no clarity to
the complicated political situation In
Greater New York. The spirit of hos~
tIIity created among the fusionists by
the attitude of Comptroller Grout and
President Fornes towards the Tam-
many coup. of placing them on the
Democratic ticket. Is growing and the
crisis of the incident must soon be
reached. The cry among the fusiouists
for the removal of Grout and Fornes
from the ticket seems to be growing
louder. Senator Platt and Governor
Odell held a long conference at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel this morning and
it Is known that they discussed the po-
sition of Grout anti Fornes.
pectcd that a formal statement will
be given out by them later on.
The fusionist leaders are to confer
today and it is generally anticipated
that they will take some decisive ac-
tion. They have been advised that no
legal obstacles bar the way to the re-
moval of any candidate from their tic-
ket, but It is clear that any attempt to -
do so will be resisted. Leader Mur-
he will, at the Democratic convention
tomorrow night, carry out the plan of
nominating Congressman McClellan for
mayor and placing Grout and Fornes 'on
the ticket.
