ARRANGING THE DETAILS.
The Local Committee \Vill nave Only 3,000
of the 15,000 Seats In the Convention
Hall—The Formal Cull Will
Be Issued Shortly.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.—-The main de-
tails of the Republican national conven-
tion at St. Louis on J mm 16 were perfect-
ed at a mating today of the subcommittee
appointed last night to take charge of ar-
rangements. Messrs. Karena and Thomp-
son, representing St. Louis, were present
at the meeting and gave assurances that
the plans proposed would be speedily ex-
ccuted.
The committee agreed that the seating
arrangements of the St. Louis exposition
building needed remodeling. At present
the rostrum is at one end of the vast ball,
so that people at the other end are too far
away to hear what is going on. It was
decided to have the rostrum placed mid-
way and at one side of the hall, with
the seats of delegates arranged according-

ly. A diagram of the change is to be com-
pleted by the St. Louis people by the time
of the subcommittes’s reassembling. It
will show the central arrangement and
will designate the seats of each‘state dele-
gation. The alterations of the building
probably will cost $15,000.
The question of allottlng tickets brought
out much animated discussion. The ex-
positlon building accommodates 15,000
people, but these limits are expected to be
severely taxed. It is understood that an
understanding was reached that the St.
Louis local committee would not control
more than 3,000 tickets, and of .those 500
should go to veterans of the war and 500
. to distinguished guests. The national
committee, it is understood, will control
the balance of the tickets, as well as re-
tain a supervisory authority over the
3,000 tickets" going to St. Louis.
' The Convention Call.
The subcommittee adjourned tomeet in
St. Louis the latter part of January, the
date to be announced hereafter. They
will personally inspect the hall and all
other features of the convention.
Chairman Carter expects to issue the
formal call for the national convention
within the next day or two. It is impera-
tiVe that it is issued by the 15th inst, in
order to give full six months’ notice for
the election of delegates to the convention.

Hoywnrd’s Latest Yarn.
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 11.—Harry Hay-
ward’s latest invention, that he was mar-
ried secretly in August, 1894, to Miss
Stella Goodman, a theater supernomerary,
seems to be thoroughly exploded today.
Harry’s desire to see her apparently in-
spired the secret marriage story. but the
sheriff took no stock in it, and the doomed
man was not permitted to see the girl, al-
though sho responded to his summons.

ALBANY, Dec. 11.—Corporatiou Counsel

ATTACHED HIS BODY.
Rev. Dr. Joseph Pullman, of Bridge- ‘
port, one of the best known clergymeu
in the New York East Conference of
the Methodist church, was arrested last
night on a body writ in which the di-
vine is charged with malicious libel
against Mlle. J one May, an actress.
City Sheriff Beck served the writ at
6:30 o’clock last night upon Dr. Pull-
man in default of property to ‘attach.
Bonds were fixed at $25,500 and the
doctor’s friends began to hustle around
to get the necessary amount of surety.
While his friends were attempting to
secure bonds the clergyman was con-
ducting his weekly prayer meeting.
Dr. Pullman is pastor of the First
Methodist church in that city. ,
On Sunday, Nov. 24, Dr. Pullman in
one of his sermons took occasion to dis-
cuss the advance notices of Mlle. J one
May. Among other things he said that
the notices referred to were notices of
a woman who was a brillant swell and a
Parisian courtesan. Mlle May has
come into the possession of a vast num-
ber of clippings from the various news-
papers which published extracts from
and comments upon Dr. Pullman’s ser-
mon.
Yesterday Arthur Rehau, advance
agent for Mlle. May and who is associa—
ted with Augustin Univ of New York,
came to Bridgeport and after discuss-
lug the matter with Attorneys Douglass
and Lynch, decided to bring suit for
25,000 damages for libel.
The complaint charges that Dr. Pull-
man did with malice aforethongh utter
a libel in that he referred to the plain-
tifi' as a brilliant swell and a Parisian
Courtesan. Inasmuch as Mlle. May is
a married woman with two children
this statement is equivalent to a charge
of adultery and she feels libellcd to the
exlent of $25,000.
Dr. Pullman is a spirited fighter. It
was mainly through his efforts some
years ago that the city of New Britain
became a “no license” town, and he
has been a powerful factor in the Law
and Order work in Bridgeport.
In his sermon of Nov. 24 Dr. Pullman
was very careful not to mention the
name of Mlle. May but it is stated that
no one in the congregation was at a loss
to know to whom he referred. The
lawyers who were consulted yesterday
looked into the matter and came to the
conclusion that he had been sufficiently
specific to warrant the institution of the
suit.
Sheriff Bock was an attendant at Dr.
Pullman’s prayer meeting last night,
and be occupied a front seat, about ten
feet distant from his prisoner. Dr.
Pullman’s attitude during the services
hinted at nothing unusual.
Prominent members of the congrega.
tion being informed of the affair imme-
diately took steps to come to Dr. Pull-
man’s assistance. 80 when the meeting
closed a number Of them immediately
stepped up to Dr. Pullman’s desk and
signified their Willingness to sign for
any amount of bonds.
Au adjournment was then taken to
the 011100 of Dr. Lauder where the bond
was signed for the entire amount.
Those who qualified were: Howard H.
Scribner, Robert '1‘. Lauder, J. B. Hal-
lett, W. E. Bitch, John S. Follansbee,
S. O. Caufield, H. Plate, 0. W. Strung,
N. E. Nickerson, N. E. Wordin and
half a dozen others. The case is re-
turnable to the superior court on the
first Tuesday in January.
Leeds Saved the Train.
When John H. Leeds of this city,
who is now thought to be in great dan-
ger in Asia Minor, was a young man an
event in which he Was the -principal
actor made him famous and at the some
time shaped his future ”career. At this
time the New York 8.: New Haven rail-
road had been in operation but a short
time, and one day Mr. Leeds discover-
ed a condition of affairs on the track in
a lonely part of the town of Darien that
would cause the wreck of a passenger
train then about due. He noted at
once and succeeded in attracting the
attention of the engineer in time to
have the train brought to a stop before
the dangerous spot was reached. The
railroad company recognized Mr.
Leed’s action by presenting him with a
substantial token and a life [1388 over
the road. Since then his career has
been one of continued successes—New
Haven Palladium.
