They Did Just Whut They Were Hired to Frevent. Praixrierp, N. J., Aug. 20.—A gang of night watchmen, paid by private persons to protect property, have been trying to burn up this town for a year and a half, simply to emphasize the necessity for thelr existence. Yesterday morning seven of the villains were arrested und several more residents are implicated. During the past year the incendiary fires in this city have averaged two a week. Bome nights the fire deparlment has been called out for action two and three times, That the police pould do nothing in the matter at discovering the guilty parties was long ago shown. Rewards offered by private parties and insurance companies proved unavailing and the common council decided upon a uew and secret way of catehing the rascals. As there was no apparent reason for the dastardly acts, this task was rendered all the more difficult. Beveral lovel heads worked on the scheme, however, and a trap was iad Into which, after much nibbling by the gullty ones and changing of base by the lovers of law and order, tho desired end was brought about. A man fromdown east, Edward Murphy, was obtained as a cat'sspaw. He came here disguised as a workman and accepted a position in Pot- ter's printing-press works. While work- ing there he quickly made the scquain- tance of all tha boys about town, and as he acted the part of a hall fellow well met and one free with his money and was always ready to “set ’em up" on drinks, he at once fell into the good graces of his game, After staying at Potter's press works for some time, o was expelled for good and suflio- tent reasons and applied for work at Scott's press works At factory worked the same game and with as good results, During the whole time was in corros- pondence with Councilman Tunis J. Carey, and by the latter was furnished with nec- essary tools to carry on his scheme, Satur tay evening Mr. Carey, who keeps a store on West Front street, had a call for some cotton waste and Kerosene oll. He ied his customer and awalch him. BShortig after midnight the lat wended his way toward Union ollowed all the while by Carey, Police OfMcer Pat and Edward Murphy, the The first mentioned the house on Union the lee brothors and occupied a Mr. Nelson, who in Europe. The house was worth Here he proceeded to arrange to fire the house in the most approved man. ner. Just as he struck the fatal match, however, the cry “Hands up!” arresied his attention and he was fairly and square- ly caught in the cowardly act. His name is John Jackson and by trade a night watchman. He has for some time been suspended.
