Jefferson City, JIo.. Dfc. 27 John Dolan,
Frank Garrett and Thomas K. Barrett ar
rived from St. Louis toiiay on th early
afternoon train in the custody- of a Dep
uty Marshal. A cold northwestern bliz
zard was sweeping the titer front when
the men a!iefctM at the Missouri Pacific
Station, and as they turned up their coat
collars and hustled Into a cab, one sug
gested that it would b a god time to take
a drink.
Tho Deputy dli not object, and Instead
of being driven to the Penltentiarj- as is
the custom, tin cab driver was ordered
to drive to the Madison Houje. where the
mon briefly regaled themselves at the b,ir.
Their potions, however, were, confined to
a single drink, after which they were
driven to t!w Penitentiary.
"There's Dockery." remarked "Lonjr
John" Dolan. as he poiutea to the Gover
nor' bust above the gate of the new
prison entrance.
Dolan. Garrttt and Bariett conversed
but little as they approached the entrance
and alighted at the door of the Institu
tion which is to bo their home for the
next five vears. The men were perfectly
calm and holf-pusesed and seemed
reconciled to their rate.
They were soon "dresnl In" and donned
the stripes this afternoon at i o'clock,
and their teglster numbers by which the
convicts tire known more than bv their
names) n as tollows: Dolan. 701; Gar
ret. TOi:; Barrett, 7014.
Deputy Warden Todd will nsOgn the
prisoners to work to-morrow, though It is
not jet known what tai.Xs they will have.
Being Federal prisoners, tbe t.uinot no
let out to the prison contractors, and tliev
will be assigned, very likely, to duties Im
mediately In connection with the pilson. It
is postal le that Dolan, B'in-ett and !ai
lett may not cnmplcto their terms here
When tie new Federal PrUnn Is finished

tiary ni ly be transferred to that place.

Other Representatives who had seen Mr.
Deneen beforo talked with him to-day,
anions them Trautmann and I'endarvLs,
the rival candidates. Thursday Mr De
neen will meet Cook County members, al
though this will be a perfunctory pro
ceeding. Inasmuch as local members who
belong to the new machine doubtless could
be delivered without much formality.
Some of tlie new Governor's friends pre
tend to bu supporting Pendarvls of Chi
cago and Arnold of Galesburg on the
theory tliat Governor Tate Is opposed to
the candidacy of 5tr. Trautmann. In this
conm-ctlon It Is reliably reported that
Yates and Trautmann have made peace
terms
Some of the Trautmann members, ac
cording to report, went so far as lo in
form Mr. Deneen that they would sup
port Trautmann even if the nf w- Governor
desired the election of another
J. Hussell Grace of Chrlsman, Charles
A. Allen's district, told Mr. Deneen he
would support Allen for Speaker, while
Representatives Haines and Taggart are
said to have expressed a preference for E.
D. Shurtl"ff.
MAY WITHDRAW.
It li expected that Mr. Allen will be here
to-morrow, and will withdraw from the
rare. Neither Alien nor Shurtleff is be
lieved to havo a chance for the speaker
ship on account of their real or supposed
affiliation with the "Federal crowd.'
Another development, as Indicated by
reports of Mr. Deneen'a interviews with
House members, is that Chicago charter
legislation will stive right of way to pri
mary election and civil-service bills in the
order named.
Mr. Denoen also sought advice from
House members respecting good roads or
