Large Republican gathering fills the city in New Year notes
Telegraph dated New Years reports Republicans from across the state gathering in Atlanta and facing travel bans home. Buckley, tied to an attempted robbery of an express wagon at Pearl Street and Broadway, is sentenced to fifteen years. Other items include court rulings on Pennsylvania taxation, mine explosions in Pittston, and Talbot’s attempted crime in Brooklyn. Indianapolis resignation drama leaves the House quorum short as a constitutional amendment advances.
