Record of Philadelphia thefts and political forecasts
The Philadelphia Record reports total thefts under five years surpassing $3,000,000 by trusted city workers and notes the $30,000 taken by Pierson from the American Baptist Publication Society as the smallest among a dozen delinquents. It notes culprits in prison, awaiting juries, or abroad. Also covers Speaker Carlisle predicting a Democratic House majority and tariff focus, with sectional voting nuances. Hammond’s defeat risks prompt concern from Georgia papers, while Hammond distances from bosses who backed Renfroe and Nelms.
