Murder Among Trnmp.
Berwick Independent, Frldar, Nov. 4,
Our borough was thrown Into a state of
excitement last evening by a murder li&v.
ing been committed within Hi borders. It
was a case of tramp?, had whiskey, and fire
arms and with such a combination it Is not
strange that onoporson lies this morning
cold In death. Wcdnosrl AV ntolit ntnn
tramps slept at tho rolling mill and when
they left that part of town yesterday morn
ing they scattered through tho town pick,
log up odd pennies and provisions whero.
ever they could. Several of them playod
tho soap game; having bought ordinary
soap they cut it in small cakes, wrapped It
in paper and sold it aa'soap to tako out
greaso spots." On this they realized nesr.
Ij two dollars. Later In the day they met
near tho englno houso and hero was whero
tho fracas took place,
The whole crowd was in such a drunken
condition that tho Btorlcs told by them last
night could scarcely bo relied on. At about
nalf.past flvo tweof the party camo up In

that did the murderous work was handed
over and William McCue gave hlmBclf up
as the confessed murderer of Thomas Bren
nan. Constable Mcllenry wag at onco
sent after tho remainder of tho parly and
succeeded shortly afterward In bringing In
John Lynott. Tho testimony of Francis
Ganley (one of tho tramps from Towahda)
was to the effect that the party had met
near tho cnglno houso and were raising
money among themselves to get liquor.
The little fellow Wm. Everhart had but
20 cents to show for his day's work and
somo ono of tho crowd picked up Ever.

saying "you're no good." This started a
fracas and William McCuo drew a revolver
to quiet them. Ganley said '-Boys, tako It
away from him; It Isn't loaded." Tho at
tempt was accordingly made, but McCuo

Brcnnan of Potlsvllle received a shot In
the neck, fired at ouch short ringo that his
clothing was scorched. Brcnnan dropped
In his tracks and probably expired Ii.stant
ly. The others retreated, and McCue
claims that he also shot one of the others,
The revolver was a 38-callbre, and con
talncd two cartridges when it was handed
over to the 'Squire. McCue's story Is that
some of tho party attempted to commit
sodomy on tho person of Everhart, and In
protecting him from this Inhuman act the
fracas was brought on and tbe murder was
committed. McCuo made no concealment
f tho part ho took in the shooting and ex-
nerated all others from any blame what
ever. By tho testimony 11 appeared that
tho affray took place below tho engine
house and henco would have been In Col
umbia county, therefore 'Squire Jacoby
committed them to tho Columbia county
jail; but later in the evening It was found
that the case belonged to Luzerne county.
Squire Evans held the inquest, the Jury
finding that Thomas Brcnnan camo to his
death at the hands of Wm. McCue. 'Squire
Jacoby handed over all his papers In the
case to 'Squire Evans and tho men were
then commtt'ed to the Luzerne county jail,
where they wcro taken this morning,
the deid man was about twenty-eight
or thirty years old, a puddler by trade, and
worked awhile In the rolling mill at this
place some nine years ago. McCue is
about tbe same age, and U said to belong
