An investigation developed the fact that while the story was untrue so far as the fatality part of it was concerned, that there was still an excellent basis for its being circulated. It appears that a few days ago Wallace and Vail went to Easton to work on a steam shovel, as fire- man and engineer respectively On Friday they started out to find a place in which to board. After having visited several they found one to their liking and concluded to engage board. They were assigned a room and about the hour when_curfew tolls the knell of parting day Vail retired His room-mate Wallace found several friends and went about the city to sec the sights, so that when he finally determined to go to his room the hands on the clock were pointing toward the hour of mid- night. Ia the meantime Vail was in the far-off country of dreamland and conscquently did not hear Wallace when the latter entered the room. Wallace disrobed, and after correctly locating the position of the bed and satisfying- himself that he could land in the same without the aid of a light he blew out the gas,and a second or two la ter was ensconsed between the cove erlets. Tired from the labors of the day and his night out, Wallace went to sleep quickly, Previous to going to bed Vail left a call with the night clerk to be aroused carly in the morning, and had it not been for this fact the story which was told on the streets of Sayre Saturday eve would doubtless have been true. When the clerk went to the door the next morning he smelled gas, and as the men failed to respond to his knock the door was forced open. The room was completely filled with the deadly vapor and Wallace and Vail were lying in bed alive but unconscious. And the Latter Wants Warrant For Their Arrest As They Have Threatened Her Life Agnes Kunctchskey, a pretty young Hungarian girl, of 18 sum- mers, was belore Justice Gay this morning endeavoring to secure a warrant for the arrest of two men, both of whom, the girl says, are head over heels in love with her. Recently the two men, who claim to be brothers, decided to allow the girl to choose between them, but much to the discomfort of both, she decided to worry along for a while without either. The men {became "angry and were driven {from her father's home. | Last night they returned resolved {to have revenge and: one of them threw a stone through the bed- room window occupied by the girl. The stone did no damage other than to demolish ode of the panes they declared that they would kill on sight the girl they professed to adore. As the officers of phe law did not think there was sufficient warrant was not issued.
