advised Grover to stay in Buffalo and employed him in the preparation of a magazine until a position as clerk and copyist In a law office wa3 secured In 1855. Grover Cleveland at once set to work with perseverance and industry to make himself useful and to master the rudiments of the law, with the result that in 1859 he was made managing clerk of the firm and was admitted to the bar. During the war his two brothers
served in the Union army, and the support of his mother and sisters devolved upon the young law student. Unable to enlist, he borrowed money to pay a substitute. In 18G3 he was appointed assistant district attorney of Erie county, serving with zeal and energy. He attended every one of the twelve grand juries that met during
each of the three years of his term and presented a majority of the cases.
In 1W!) Cleveland went into the law
firm of Lanning, Cleveland and Fol-
som. The following year he was elect
ed sheriff of Erie county and performed his duties faithfully, using his leisure to further prosecute his law stud
ies. At the end of his term, in 1873, he joined the law firm of Bass, Cleveland and Bissell, acquired increasing success in practice, and took a higher position at the bar than ever before.
In 1S81 the citizens of Buffalo under
took to check the flagrant corruption
in the city government. Cleveland
was elected mayor on the democratic
ticket by a large majority. As mayor he displayed a thorough knowledge of the laws, a clear perception of the
needs and rights of the city, and how
to secure them. He insisted upon
placing public interests above party
claims; saved the city over $1,000,000 by preventing corrupt schemes and bargains, and won the gratitude of the people and press irrespective of party.
On September 22. 1882, he was nomi
nated for governor of New York 6tate and was elected by the unprecedented
maloritv of U2.000 votes.
As governor, Grover Cleveland con
ducted a thoroughly business like administration, making frequent use of his veto power, but his vetoes were always clearly sustained by his duty
under the law.
His record as mayor and governor
won for Grover Cleveland the demo
cratic nomination for president in
1884. The ensuing campaign was very
bitter, and political issues were lost sight of in the disgraceful attacks
made upon the character and personality of the two leading candidates. At the election, Cleveland received 219 electoral votes to 1S2 cast for his republican opponent, James G. Blaine, and was inaugurated president on March 4, 1S85.
What He Advocated. Only the briefest mention can indi
cate the important and difficult questions that crowded his administrations.
His first message recommended a reduction of the tariff, the extension of civil service reform, regulation of the presidential succession, and the settlement of the fisheries dispute with Great Britain. His removals from
non-political offices were less sweeping than those of any president since Jackson. In 1887, he devoted his en
tire message to the existing tariff, denouncing it as vicious and unnecessary and demanding an abolition of duties on raw material.
Defeated for re-election in 1888. he retired to the practice of law in New York City, where he remained until his second election in 1802. He took the office in In the midst of threatening currency and financial conditions. His inaugural declared that
"so far as the executive branch of the
government can intervene, none of the powers with which it is invested will be withheld when their exercise is deemed necessary to maintain our na
tional credit or avert financial disas
ter." Accordingly he forced the repeal of the Sherman Silver purchase act, killed the bill for coining the seignorage, maintained the treasury's gold reserve by the successive issue of government bonds, and saved its credit through
out the world, despite furious opposition by large sections of his own and the republican party, favoring the free coinage of silver. He repudiated the Hawaiian annexation treaty made by President Harrison, enforced the neutrality laws during the troubles In Cuba, while firmly supporting American interests there, and compelled Great Britain to arbitrate her dispute with Venezuela. During the Chicago strike, in 1S!4. he effectively asserted the executive's right to interfere in state matters in the interest of law and order. At the close of his second term, in 1S97, Grover Cleveland settled in Princeton, N. J., where he resided with his wife up to the time of his death. He has delivered an annual series of lecture on public affairs at Princeton Uniyerslty, and written a number of periodical articles on important questions with which he was required to deal while president. In 1904 he was
much talked of for a third term, but emphatically declined to be so considered.
Young Coal Dealer Still Languishes in Jail in Indianapolis.
TRIAL oOMES IN NOVEMBER
AT THAT TIME HE WILL BE ARRAIGNED BEFORE FEDERAL GRAND JURY FOR USING U. S. MAILS TO DEFRAUD.
Albert E. McClure, the young coal dealer recently arrested In this city by federal authorities on a charge of using the United States mails for frau
dulent purposes, still languishes in jail at Indianapolis because his friends and relatives have positively refused to go on his bond. The chances are that McClure will remain in jail until next November when he will appear before the United States grand jury. Postmaster Spekenhier states that it is almost certain that the young man will be Indicted and convicted of the charge on which he was arrested. He states that the postal inspectors are very careful in making arrests and that they never take a person into custody as long as they are of the opinion that the evidence is too slight to warrant making an arrest. McClure takes his arrest and confinement in the most cool and philosophical manner. He states that he is innocent of the charge that he used the mails to conduct his business in a fraudulent manner and is confident that he will be able to establish his innocence. Liocal relatives of the young man state that they will not furnish bond for him or assist him In his trouble. They state that they warned him for some time prior to his arrest that if he continued to conduct his business
as he had been doing, he would eventually get into trouble. He did not heed their advice, so now they Intend to let him suffer the consequences. It is understood that some of the local coal dealers, wse business was greatly Injured by McClure's method
of purchasing coal without the intention of paying for it and then selling it way below market prices, will present evidence against the youthful get-rlch-quick coal dealer.
land's death removes one of our foremost citizens. He was the best type of stae8men, level-headed and courageous. Neither feared nor favored and nothing could swerve him from his
course, his most lightened judgment
and conscience approved. He was a rugged and wholesome influence in public service and private life."

Host. ill was there because of Ma ry and because of Mary. Will was re leased without prosecution. And be
cause of Mary, Will was told to go to
Ohio, and remain away from his wife
And because of Mary it was necessary
for a policeman to go to the Rost home on West Fifth street, so Will might secure his clothes. And because, further, the Rosts have
been in police and divorce courts so often the authorities have become disgusted with their domestic troubles and do not give them heed, when they tell
tales, the husband was told this morn
ing he must stay away from home. He surprised all and was ridiculed by the court and prosecutor when he asserted he could not stay away from his wife, despite their trouble, because she has a
spell over him. "She's got me hypnotized, I guess," said Will in an "attempt to explain. Rost was arrested last night on complaint by his wife, who accused him of raising a disturbance at the home. Rost has entered suit for a divorce and his wife has filed a cross complaint.
