A teUgram to the Shenandoah Herald
from Shamokln, dated the 7th In-t.,
say : Put. Hester aud Michael Gra
ham have been nrrented. They are
charged with complicity in the murder
f A. W. Hca. Ttieso arre-is nave uecn
in contemplation for some time, but
everything wasn't, lu readiness until to
day when the birds were caught with
out trouble. Hester was arrested at his
bouse at Locust Gap and was horribly
astonUhed when told of the charge
against him.
Every ono In the coal region has
heard of or remembers the awful mur
der of poor Rea how tin was Btopped
upon the road within a short distance
of hit house bysovernl parties, ho told
hi m to prepare for death j of how he
offered all ho had In thn world If his life
would only be spared to his wife and
little one, and finally ho was shot down
in cold blood while beseeching Ills mur
derers to spare his life. Rao was not
only murdered but robbed, and from
that time up to the present his assas
sins havo escaped justlcs.
Hester and Graham were given a
hearing before 'Squire Reed, In Potts
ville. Daniel Kelley, one of the per
petrators, turned state's evldenw, mak
ing out such a case aualnst Hester that
the latter wa committed without bail
and Graham was remanded for five
thousand dollars ball. Another dis
patch states that Peter Mcllugh, county
delegate of the AncleutOrder of Hilmr
nians, when Rea was murdered, was
also arrested at Frenchtown, Luzerni
county. Tuesday afternoon, and taken
to Pottsvllle. He Is also captured as omi
of the parties Interested In tho murder
of Rea.
