TEE AMBITI 0 U 3 MAJOR LOFLAMD The Stalwart* Want to tsuance Collec tors* Meint ire ami Thompson and Put Home of Their Number lu. For the first time Bine« their overwhelm ing defeat, tho leaders of the Dover Junta showed t K «*lr diminished h«*uds in Wllgdug ton yesterday, and a conference which has much bearing upon the Federal offices in the State was held in the aftemodh. Among the down-State politicians present Dick Harrington. Major Jim Lofland, Harry Caution of tho Dover tontine! , Dr. Samuel Creadick, who is h recent recruit to the Stalwart ranks In Delaware, and several others. Albert Curry, late candidate for Governor, was also on baud. The object of the meeting was kept a secret and a great deal of conjecture wus indulged in by the Half-breed element. A number of tho Wllmiugton Stalwarts joined Mr. Harring ton's party and quite a long council took place. It has leaked out that the visit of these gentlemen to Wilmington is due to changes contemplate«! in tho Federal offices in Wil mington. The iKJfitive statement was made to-day by one who 1 h in a position to know, nnd whose word is authoritative, that these changes include the offices of the collector of the port and of the collector of Internal Revenue and that an attempt is about to l>e made to induce Mr. Mclntire, who holds the latter office, to resign and to either secure the removal or resignation of collector Thompson. It will be recalled that similar attempts have been made during the past two or three years, but all, up to this time, have been futile. It is said that Major LoQand wants the office of Collector of Internal Revenue aud that he is determined to have It if there is any possibility of getting tho place. The Major, by the way, has been making efforts for the office off aud on for the past five years. Ills chances now are not considered tæfore tho recent election, be cause of the crushing defeat the party sus tained here after making so many lavish promises and» of the distrust with which Lofland and his fellows regarded at home On the other hand, stated thRt the .4diuini6tratlon had deter mined to make some changes in the offices mentioned, even before the election, and that since that time it lias been represented in (jcparlmcut circles in Washington that the failure of the Republicans to carry State was due to the apathy either of office-holder»,whom they would now decapi tate, or their immediate friends. The argu ment of alleged inactivity is being assidu ously used, and It Is deemed that this is sufficient of the en there were not sufficient ground before. The position of Mr. Mclntire is a very good one, and is not held for any stated term. A change only takes place wheu the lncumbeftt dies, resigns, oris removed. The term of Collector Thompson pire until June, 1884. Mr. Tliompeon was appointed after a fierce contest, his rival for the place being Harry Cannon. The friei ds of Loth Mr. Mclntire and Mr. Thompson, while appeariug to discredit the rumors of auy attempt to unseat them, are evidently uneasy. The presence of a prominent de partment official In Wilmington day has not tended to allay sutpiciou of coming trouble. Appropos of this a story is told of cer tain bad feeliug right in the ranks of the Dover junta, and particularly between Chairman Harrington and Major Lolland. It will be remembered that about four days bofore the election Lolland and Judge Fisher went to Washington to get the $40, 000 which hud been promised to Delaware by Pirate Hubbell. Tin get any money,Delaware's share having been scut to Virginia. Lofland and Fisher had quite u stormy interview with Henderson, HubbcU's secretary, and a good many hard things were, said, hut this was nothing like what took place when Lofland met Harring ton tue next day; aud just about the lime the rumor- was published that the luttler hud become Insane. It is related that hot words passed between the two, Harrington blamiug Lofland with being responsible for failing to get aid from Hub bell, and that the two men nearly came to blows. It is now stated that Harrington is opposed to getting any office for Lolland, hut that of chairman of the State Central Committee lie will insist and he has lufiueuce in Washington if he hasn't any in Delaware. A leading Stal wart was asked to-day what significance the visit of the Dover men had. "No special significance,''* he answered. They are up here to settle up the out stand: ing debts.'' "Didn't they have money enough to pay as they went?" "Oh, dear, no. The fket Is that many debts wore still standing aller the election. « honoring, am! the •nTthis delegation here to see be done. They raised some money, but not enough to pay all the bills. The removal of Mr. Ma Intlre and Mr. Thompson is not contemplated. « «n as good now and abroad, however, it is the ground for the accomplishment ds oi the Dover people, even if will not ex Tucfi ?y were unable to •rtain removals Creditors have been committee what eouh «APTI818.

Blake and William Morris ; Ou Tuesday evening, 188*2, Peter 8. Blake, Wi another colored man whom I did not know, but who was introduced to me by Fetor 8 Blake as Robert Shockley, called at my. house. Mr. Blake stated Shockley Was the man who swore out a Wlfrmnt fer hiru for keeping a gambling house Saturday previous, aud that he brought him dowu to ray house so he could make a statement,as he did not wautio prosecute him, (Blake.) Shockley said to me, iu the presence of Peter 8. Blake and William orris, that he had been arrested on Satur day night, November 11, 1882, by a police officer at Front and French streets for being drunk and disorderly ; that he was taken to the City Hall, and t|mt this charge was made against him by tho officer who arrested him. He said that Chief Hawkins osted November 14tb, Uliani Morris and on the u>oku tip and anew Blake ; he said he asked him what him if lie he did : kind of a bous«! he kept) he said a gamb'iag house ; he asked him if he would swear out rant for him; he said he did not know. Shockley - then said that Chlal Hawkins telephoned to Major Wales that there man at the Hall who wanted to swear out a warrant for Peter 8, Blak« for keeping a gambling house ; he swid the Mayor replied to send him up to his house with an officer, and also to send a warrant ; tic said he went to the house of «orne dne.he supposed it to be Mayor Walea% but III; Was so drunk he did not exactly know-what he was doing; he said he faintly recollected of swearing to the charge and ateoof making Ills mark, bat he declared lie did not know what he doing; he said he was released after making the charge aud ihat It was the under standing if he made the «liarge Blake be would be relcaséd. asked him If Chief Hawkins told him he would release him il be made the charge ; he said he did. I asked hiru if he was sure it was before the Mayor that he swore out the warrant, he said it was not before Chief ITawkins, because ho warrant out at the Mayor's house. I asked Shockley if he knew the officer who arrested him and he said he did not. 1 asked hlrh if the officer locked him up , he said he did not; I told him if lie bad been locked up, *pd h»d been released with out a hearing, he could have him arrested for false imprisonment. He baid again be did not know who the officer Was and that he did not know what he was doing when he swore the warrant out, for he said he was drunk when arrested and tlmt he had not time to become sober wheu ho swore the warrant out.

Norristown, Nov 28.— The Interest in the Garber case Is still kept tip but no new development* are announced as to Mho put the poison in the Hour. A Pinkeitou detec tive was engaged in the case a short time, as the county commissioner* were not will ing to incur much expense. It is stated that be lore leaving he expressed the opinion that that Boile;\u-i,Mrs. Garber aud Murtba Hyde were all about right when they called each other weak minded, D»at the poisoning was accidental, and that Mr«. Garber was un willing to acknowledge that she had made a (stake. The District Attorney when ques tioned about the matter said a detective would not be likely to express an honest opinion about u case which he had in hand. On Tuesday the Philadelphia Inquirer published an alleged interview with Mrs. Garber which was copied in the Norristown Time ». Jo the course of the iuterview Mrs. Garlier is represented as intimating not that only the Boileaus, but Martha Hyde had a hand in the poisoning. Tho latter intima lion, which iA not supported by a shadow of evidence, has made Mies Hyde very lndig uaut and she is preparing to bring suits lor lit>el against Mrs. Garber 'and the publishers of both the journals in question.

A jury was drawn to bear the evidence i the case of the other two defendants. Austin Harrington, Esq., counsel for Greenwood, asked to have the indictment quashed oo the ground that it did not specify at what hour the alleged riot !u which Greenwood took part occurred.

The fineness of the argument was apparent and created considerable mer riment. Spencer and Janc Grecnwood, the lather and mother of the prisoner, said their son was at home drunk from 2 o'clock iu the afternoon until 11 o'clock at night. The former swore that Alonzo was in the house all the afternoon aud eveniug and the latter vouched for the time from 7 to 11 p. m., having been absent during the afternoon. The deleu se rested. Deputy Attorney General Cooper and Mr. Harrington both made 20 minute addresses to the jury and Judge Houston charged them. His Honor sahl the evidence was con flicting and of course if any doubt existed as to where the prisoner was at the time of the riot he should have the heuefit of It.
