Louisville, Ky., Nov. .16.—The Cou- rier-Journal, under the caption, “Sov- ereign’s Vaulting Ambition,” says: “The great secret is out at last. Mr. J. R. Sovereign, the retiring General Master Workman" of the Knights 01 Labor, resigned his position in order that he might push his candidacy for President of the United States in 1900. “Being free now from the responsi- bilities of General Master Workman and having none of the former difficul- ties to contend with, Mr. Sovereign has a. clear field before him, and delegates to the General Assembly openly ac- knowledged last night that Mr. Sov- ereign is an aVOwed candidate for the Presidency of the/ United States when Mr. McKinley’s term shall expire, and the movement of .making him ‘field worker’ is the initial step of the Gen- eral Assembly of the Knights of Labor to launch Mr. Sovereign’s boom. The effort will be made to unite the free silver forces as they were last year.” “I have no Presidential aspirations Whatever,” said Sovereign yesterday. “My retirement from the head of the Knights of Labor is not to conduct a. canvass, but to devote my time partly 'to my own affairs and partly to work- ing up the organization. If I should run for President, which is out of the question, I would only get the laboring vote.” “Do you intend to take any part in politics?” asked the reporter. “I am unable to say. One -th1ng is certain, and that is that I am not a candidate for the Presidency." SETTLED OUT 015 COURT. It Looks Like Hat-loony in the Penn-. sylvuniu Republican Ranks. Pottsville, Pa., Nov. 16.———The case of E. A. Van Valken‘ourg, charged with conspiring to bribe Assemblyman of Northampton County, to vote for John 'W'anamaker as against the Hon. Boise Penrose for United States Senator during the last session of the Legislature, was settled yesterday by permission of District Attorney Bechtel. Pledges were made .by defendant’s counsel that all the court costs, amounting to about fifteen , hundred dollars, would be paid. The defendant was discharged. The‘eollapse ‘of the case has been expected for ’the’ past few'zdays. The with the conspiracy charge Gen. Frank ’Reeder, were the outcome of the fight between the'Quay and Hastings factions in the Republi- can party. Since the election in which Dr. Swal- low, an independent candidate for State Treasurer, got over one hundred thousand votes, the Quay and Has- tings men have shown signs of desir- ing to forget their personal differences and to make up. The Hastings men let the case against Gen. Reeder go by the board, and now in return the Van Valkenburg case, which was really aimed at 21-213. Wanamaker, has been dropped. For. a. time harmony or a publican forces. at .least there will be truce among the Re‘ WOMAN FOR PRESIDENT. ..— Mrs. Henry Wants the Noanination and Outlines Her Platform}. Versailles, Kv.,Nov.13.-—Mrs.Jose- 3 phine K. Henry, who is being boomed for the Prohibition nomination for President of the United States in 1900, does not hope to be elected, but she firmly believes that the day will come when a woman will be the Executive of this nation. She is the only woman in Kentucky who ever ran for a. State office.- She was nominated by the Prohibition party for Clerk of the Court of Appeals in 1890, and again in 1894. Making a. spirited campaign after her first nomi- nation she received 5,000 votes. Mrs. _Henry has recently outlined the policy she_would adopt in case of her election as President, the central ideas of which are: “The enfranchisement of American women," “free coinage of silvfi’er “recognition of Cuban inde- pendende,” “pension reform, ”reduc- tion of Federal offices," “a non— p321 t1- “law- making san tariff committee," lobbying a penal offense,” and “the ab— _ olition of the Liquor traffic.” Mrs. Henry is an agnostic. The thinks Thanksgiving day should be abolished and that noreference to God should be made in the Constitution. \Vhbn a‘ndl'Wh-ere‘ “Ii‘ you ’ve any complaint to make I‘l ivate O’Flaherty, yell make them .311. once, and in my company, and 1101 ‘1? ..ehrndmhask when you' 1e alone and every one else's present "—B1ooklyn 1 [321313.
