HOLDING THE PRISONER,
TIE BAlPfllN DISTRICT ATTORNEY WANTS
TO PROSECUTE CHAMBEuS.
Chief 8me!tZ Gees te Ilariintiuri-iuid De-
mauds the Custody of the Man Who
Shet Perter Charles Stark.
After receiving the telegram from Super.
Intendent Gncker, or the Pennsyl-. anla
"railroad, yesterday forenoon, in which he
stated that the company desired te have
the man who did the sheeting in a Pull
man car, Sunday morning, prosecuted te
the full extent of the law, Chief Smeltz
went te Harrlsburg te take soine cctlen In
the matter. It was his Intention te
bring, tin prisoner te this city, and he
leu . erj nt 10.. Upen arriving at Harrls
burg he called upon Mr. McCIcllan, supor super supor
luiMidcntef IhoMlddle division, nnd told
him of his errand. The superintendent
received him cordially and told him that
there would be no treuble about getting
the prlsloner. At pollce headquarters he
was told the same. The chief then pro
cured the names of witnesses who ktiew
something of the case and te get all the
evldcncejposslble te obtain In that city. He
visited the hospital and from the physician
in charge obtained a hullet, which was
I iken from the body of the colored man.
The cblef also had a talk with the patient,
after which he went te the J.ill te socure his
prisoner. When he arrived there the Jail Jail Jail
koepor said that he had erders from Dis
trict Attorney Kunkle net te gire
the prisener up without Instructions
from him. Smeltz then called en
Kunkle, who scorned te fuel Mg ever
lh) fact that he had the prisoner, .llewas
very fresh and told the chief that he could
try the man in his ceuntas well as Dis
trict Attorney Wcaver could here. fc'inMtz
did net go into an argument en that
(itiostlen, as Kunkle showed him the law In
the matter, which was passed seme year
age. Under that a man who commits a
crlmoef this kind en a nil read or steam
boat can be trled in any ceu.ity. After
seme l'utther talk Kunkle cooled off and
said that If Smeltz would again telegraph
te Oucker and the latter would bay that he
wanted Chambers taken te Lancaster he
would surronder him. Smeltz did this and
Oucker replied that the cilmew as commit
ted In Lancaster and he wanted the man
tried there. Kunkle again acted the part of
n baby, as he had dene all through, aud
sullenly refund te surrender the
man, intimating that Gncker did net kuew
the circumstances and law In the case or hu
would net have tent the word he did
Kunkle acted as lliemli he Wis simply
he1 ling the prlsouer In erdur te tnike
costs. There is no complaint whatover
against Chambers in Harrlsburg, and se the
district altorney admitted, yet he insist!
upon holding en te the piidouer. When
Chief Smeltz found that he could net
bccure the man he returned te taucustcr
without him. r
Chief Smeltz Rays that the wounded
porter'sname Is Charles A.Stark, uetSUck,
nnd he llves at 225 Washington street,
Jcrsey City. TIe scorns te be getting along
very nicely and no reals of his death nre
entertalnerl. It seams that b:it;one ball en
teral Ms body nnd tboethor two struck In
the car, whero they wero found. Stark
re atcd te the chief hew the shoot sheet
ing occurred and told a very geed
ttery. Hesnys that he had porinisslen te
sleep from Philadelphia te Ilnrrlsbug, and
nt Lancaster he was lying en his right side
In the btnekingapaitmcnt of the slceper.
IIe had nothing en but bin underclothing.
He full a m.iu touching him nud he get
awake. He naw that it was a white man
and nttemped te get up. As he did
this the man called him a foul uame and
began prodding him in the side with
a revolver. Stark continued his efforts te
get up, but the man fired the thrce shots at
him bofero he could get en his feet. Stark
says that the story that Chambers tells
about him trying te sheet him Is false In
overy particular. IIe has net had a rovelvcr
In n long time, and even If he had had ene
that night he would net have cirrled It in
his uudorcletlwng and would have had no
tlme te secure it.
Frem what Is known In Harrlsburg of
young Chambers it seems that his home is
in St. Leuis. Ills right uame Is L'dwards.
Sevcral years age he tried tekill his father,
who then compelled him te lonve home.
He carne East and changed his name.

The local'tebacco dealers ha c had a busy
week. The sales wcre about fifteen hundred
enscs, prlnclwlty of med leaf. Jehn Urlni Urlni
mer Held n packing of 600 cases, Captain
Drlckcr ene of 110 cases, 8k lies Prey 120
cases, Ledcrtnan 300 cones and about two
hundred cases were disposed of In small
lets.
Farmers are getting their crops into the
shcils and in another week nearly all the
leafwltlbc housed. The rust In the to
bacco tnonttenod a few weeks age Is gen
eral throughout the county and will reduce
the money value of the crop considerably.
Sampling Is still going en and the crop of
1SS3 Is coming up te expectations. The
"black ret" scare la ever, the sampling
thus far showing that there Is less of It than
for several years, notwithstanding the
United Slate Tobaece Journal pronounces
Lancaster county's crop ruined.
The few lets of tobacco in which there
was a little ret, It has been learned, was the
result of carcless packing.
Nevr Yerk Market.
Prem the U. 8. Tobacco Journal.
The market Is very busy, mostly with
sampling. And the sampling shows, what
we predicted long age, that the Xcw Eng
land Havanas nre Iho cream of last year's
cigar leaf crop. They have turned out also
almost porfect, " sound as a nut," ' the
phrase gees, bnt llttle frost bitten tobacco
being amongst it. Among the lewer
grades of the New England soed leaf,
however, meld preralls te some extent,
and seme sharp fighting about it is be
ing done between samplers and packers.
The sampling of the Pennsylvania Havana
show .4 It te be thoroughly sound, while the
Pennsylvania seed confirms the existence
of "black rt" te a remarkable degree.
The Wisconsin turns out In sampling as
clear as the '87 crop was, but the Onondaga,
though faultless as regards soundness, has
rather thickened In the leaf which will
destine this crop principally for an ex
cellent high grade filler. Quite a number
of out-ol-tewn jobbers are in the city
awaiting the result of the sampling. Dut
they have net straggled around in Idleness.
They lmve paid their greatest attention te
the Housateuio Havana and nearly 1,000
cases or thin leaf have bcen dispened or in
running lets at from 23c. te 26c, nnd in
wrapper lets as high as from 40c. te 42c.
Other sales include n few hundred cases
Pennsylvania Havana at frein 23c. te 25e.
rer very line grades and at 18c te 20c for
medium grades, and a few hundred cases
'bb Little Dutch at 8c. for low grades aud at
He te 12c for the iluest. The aggregate
sales of the new leaf amounted te nearly
2,000 cases.
The business in Sumatra waslikewlse
quite active. Though the new Sumatra Is
net neglected by any incaus, the old is
searched for Immediate use. It is dwind
ling down te such an extent that it will
seen be entirely out of tbe market. Sales
for the v.cek vciy nigh 000 bales.
The Havana market Is lit a very still con
dition. The holders or Vueltas are net tee
anxious for customers at present whlle
buyers are eager te pnrchaseat low rates.
The manufactuicrn of clear Havana cigars
are in a very tight pinch en account or the
great lack of suitably Havana wrappers.
Here is an opportunity for tbe Flerida leaf
stu-h as may net occur In a generation. If
the Flerida leaf is destined te replace any
tvpe of tobacco it Is the Cuban leaf, and If
Flerida lias produced any wrapper tit te
substitute the Havana wrapper, it is new
the most opportune tlme te push te the
front and te test its rivalry. New or never.
Frem the Tobacco Leaf.
The market this week has leen pilte
lively, and considerable tobacco was sold.
The reason for this Is that a great deal of
the new crop has been sampled and dhows
up spleudiuly. Onondaga and Pennsyl
vania Havana sold te seme extent, and
some Housatenle and Wisconsin sold in
geed lets. We may leek for a steady
market right along.

borseofMr. Valentine. He was sold for
100 and the note for that amount was
made In favor of Mr. Herr, who told the

facts nre that Mrs. Jehnsen had
a husband living, from whom alie
had len separated for many year?,
when she was married te Mr. Jehnsen.
, consequently she could net rocevor en the
policy. The son agreed te allow nor me

PAT HEILLY'S SHOW.
H Makes a BIk Hit Upen Oiiculnit lu
Fulton Opera Heuse.
At Fulton opera hoitse last eVvnlng,
ltellly A Weeds' big specialty company
opened their traveling season of 18SMV.
The members of tbe treupe have been in
Lancaster for a week, during which they
put In most or the time rehearsing. The
company ts ene of the largest and best of
Us kind uew bofero the public and It
mcludes among Its performers very high
salaried artists. The company of last even
ing Is the saine that will be seen lu all the
large cltles, where It Is se popular, during
the season, and they will go as far west as
San Francisce, as has been Mr. Kellly'a
custom for years. The manager has geed
cause te be proud of his aggregation, for It
was the universal verdict of ovcrybedy who
saw tbe porferniauco last evening that It
was ene of the best ever given hore.
In Saturday evculng's LvrraueuNctu
the difficult glebo act of Mens. Albert and
tle work of the performing dogs was do de
scribed at seme length. These two acts
wero given last night even in better shae
than at the rehearsal, and the ethers en the
programme were en n level with them. The
show was opened by Byrnes and Holeuo,
who are net only dancers, singers nnd
funny comedians, but the foriner Is a
crayon artist of ability and he does splen
did work. The make-up of Heleno as a
wench was awfully runny. Dan J, Hart, n
very clever comedian, made mille a hit In
his tramp speclalty ns " Handseme Dan,"
the tramp. Bollenlul made his first appeal appeal
niice In America as a Juggler and did seme
wonderful work. The Weed family In the
operetta, " An Organ Crank," Introduced
a great many beautiful songs. They are all
geed slngers and made a great amount of
fun. Their act Is very pleasing nnd the
duet of the sisters was a decided fcatute.
Miss Plorenco Mlller is a beautiful woman
with a dashing, spirited manner, and the
way she ronders popular songs makes her
a great favorite. The Buffalo Trie, com
posed of Masen, Mlller and Masen, are
strangers In Lancaster.but their verytaklng
turn will net seen be forgotten. They aie
capital people and the audlcnce was loath
te loave thein go. The thrce Byrne Brethers
de a wonderful act entitled "A Carrlage
Hide and Us Mishaps." They bring a
heavy carriage, te which a very comical
looking horse.mado of two men Is hitched,
upon the stage. In and about this vohlcle
the fun Is made. The act Is something
like that of the Haiilens and the
most wonderful gyninastle performance
is given, calculated te astonish any one. It
winds np by an explosion which blows the
carrlage te pieces. The pcrfurinance wound
up with the Irish comedy "Senater McFce"
with Pat Ilcllly himself In the title rele,
whero he made plenty of fun.
Thore was net n draggy or tiresome acten

The grand Jury this morning ignored the
bill of Indictment charging Lawrence W.
Knapp, Lancaster township, with violating
the liquor law, with county for costs.
They submitted the following as their
report s
Te the Honorable the Judges of the Cem t of
Quarter Sessions of Lancaster County i
The grand Innucst of the commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, empanelled te luntilre
Inte and for the county of Lancaster at the
August eosslen, 1BS0, beg lcave te make the
following rciKirt i
The district altorney submitted te the
grand Inquest 173 cases. Of this number
122 wcre returned as true bills, 49 Ignored
nnd 3 returned net acled upon.
The grand lnquest respectfully and most
earnestly call the attention oftlie court nnd
county commissioners te the presslug need
or accommodations for the witnesses who
are summoned te appear bofero them. Dur
ing the last weck, and at many ether times
as we have been Informed, scores of wit
nesses, many of thein among the most ro re ro
spcctable eopleef the county, nre huddled
together like cattle In the corridor and Jury
rooms In the rear of the main court
room. This without regard te sex,
race, age or ether conditions, they
are packed together Indiscriminately
te the annoyance, If net suffering, of the
rospcctable aud te the delight of the w tckad
ami evil disposed. We earnestly hepe
accommodation will spoedlly be provided
by the county authorities.
Concurring fully In all that termer grand
Juries have said el the Insatiate greed oftlie
magistrates and constables In originating
and multiplying criminal complaint, we
again call the attention of the court te
this the greatcst abuse from which
the peeple of our great county
suffer. Something should be dene te
crush It out. In the name of the peeple
whom we represent we ceimraul the
action of his honor Judge Patterson In
setting the seal of his condemnation upon
these iillferers from the public treasury by
directing the clerk te allow them no cost's
in surety of the poace cases returned by
them, and growing out of complaints for
assault and battery and ether oteiinqs.
We hepe the district attenu y will hero here
after carefully scrutinize the returns made
te court and oxerclso proper Judgment, for
by his watchfulness many lalds upon the
publle treasury, under the color of lawful
returns te ceur', might hi prevcntxl an 1
multiplication of Indlctments thereby
checked.
The numerous cress actions nud the
many witnesses suhiicunaed nil trivial
cases are pnrllciilaily censurable and we
would ad vlse that seme means be devised
te eerrect these abuses.
We, after carefully examining the view
ers' report nud specifications setting forth
the uocesslty of a brldge nt Orsen land

thore is room for Improvements, which
might be suggested, we would net advise
the expenditure of much money upon Im
provements at this Institution, Inasmuch
us former grand Juries have recommended
the erection or a new prison. We were
very mverably Impressed with the line an

found very clean und erderly, and tee
