:erge Mnjj.Terrlbljr Beaten By Them
Three M'eelM Age Chief Smelts le-
termlned te Punish the Terrors.
Late en the night of Saturday, Seplomber
7th, Geerge Msy, a young mau who work's
at carpentering for tbe Pennsylvania mil mil
read company, and beards with his sister
en West Liberty street, near Market, was
en his way home with a companion, named
Bergman. At the corner of Clay and Mar
ket streets they stepped, under lamp pett,
te talk. It wan nut long until four or Ave
young men came along, and one plcked up
a brick or stone, ami w Itheut any provoca
tion whatever, burled It at May. It struck
him alongside of the head and he fell te
the pavement. Bergmvi, upon seeing that
the men meant light and that he and his
companion would be unable te cope with
them, took te bis heels and get away with
out being hurt. May was unable te resist
and, as he lay upon the ground, he was
kicked and beaten untlt he was insensible.
The men who made the cowardly attack
then went te a plare near by, where they
washed their hands, which were cove roll
with bleed, and laughed ever what they
had done. Hew long May laid en the
pivoinent he does net knew, but when he
was atile te riie he managed te walk te his
home. The next day his head presented a
fearful appearance, aa it was covered with
cuts and bruises and his body was in little
hotter condition. He was uuable te go te
work for some days.
May had no idea who Ids nailants ware,
but he told the whole cltvumstance 'e
Chief of Poliee Smelt. That eftieer ai
onre suspected who the guilty parties were
mid he revolved te bring them 'te justice
The people of that section of the city de
manded that the affair be Investigated, as
assaults and ether. crimes were becoming
frequent with them and many of them
were uneasy at times. The chief quietly
worked the case up until he wns sure he
had the right parties. On Saturday last he
told May that he knew who the men were
who had assaulted him, and uske 1
him whether he desired te prosecute
them. May said he certainly did and he
went te the olllce of Alderman Deeii, where
he inade complaint. The result was that
yesterday nftorneon Dick Redman, Chas.
Nechrlst and Albert Shome were arrestel
en charges of foleulous assault and battery
nnddruuken and disorderly conduct. This
is the very crowd that the chief of police
suspected from the start. Hedman was
arrested wlthnutdltflculty in the aflorneo.i
in Faogleysvlllo, wliere he was with 11
crowd of his cronies, by Olllcers Glass and
Knmseii, who were In citizens' clothes and
pretended te be going te the country.
Glass atterwards arrested Sechrist in A roll
ulley, while he was very drunk, and Shome
was taken later. The last named at onre
furnished ball for a he iring and the ethers
were committed.
Ne young man In Lancaster has devel
oped into an ugly tough, within the p.ist
tew years, with greater rapidity than this
same young Redman, lie lives in the
northern juirt of town and associates with
a crowd of young men of his class who
have been guilty of many offenses lately.
They have been suspected befere el assauft
ing people as welt as of greater crimes.
The police Intend te break up thQirrmg-if
they have te sand every oue of them te
Jail. Redman has figured te a great extent
in poliee courts, yet with all tlmt he ha"
never served any term of length in prison.
Me is new quite likely te go there, as Chief
Smelts has the evidence te nut him
away. Besides these cases Redman has
ether charges ngalnst him. He is
said te have been ene of a party that
beat a man in the Mronnercher garden en
Monday nlght.ef last week, and tliore has
been no bearing In that case as yet. He Ih
also charged with having stolen a let of
eystcisfrnm the cellar of Mettfett lirethers,
under the Northern market, en the night
following the' ene en which he assisted in
beatlmr Muv. Itcdmau and his whele
rewd area let of sneaks, who iiru at all
times ready te de cowardly acts, nud they
have always confined their operations te
their own part of town, wliere they have
had everything their own way. The
chief thinks tlicre will net be s.i much of it
in the future, and he is right.

February, 1W7, caused such a sensation,
and who since his disappearance in May of
that year was supposed te lie with the
American colony in Canada, has suddenly
tu med up In Allentown. The strange part
of the affair is that during nil this time,
nearly two years and a half, he kept him
self concealed in his own heuse in Allen

which was saved out of tlie wreck follow

It was amid his books In a pleasant room
en the second fleer that he whlled away

streets en Saturday night, and had he
risen from the grave he could net have
caused greater surprlse te the people who

Intimate friends knew of his presence, and
hew they succeeded in keeping the secret is
almost as much of a wonder as the fact that
Gressman was therethese years Is a surprise
He was visited regularly by his attorneys,
who were supposed te call ut the heuse te

an investigation of tlie books showed that
for llve or six years prier te thut time he
had been systematically appropriating con
siderable of his employers' cash te his

partial settlement befere the shertage was
known te exceed $0,000 was effected by
Gressman paying f 1,000 in cash and prom prem

$300 per month. He gave the Aim a mort mert mort

mentioned that a let of humor Spanish
was actually disposed of hut at a con
siderable less te the packer.
While the stagnation of business at this
tlme of the season Is semewhat: of a novel
experience It need net frighten at all the
helders of stock. True, October gener
ally is a "rattling month ; but the season
set in se much earller this year en account
of the bsreness of old leaf In our market,
that sales were effected In August this
year whlch'erdlnarllv would have te be
credited te October. The market has been
se brisk the past two months and a half
that the present quietness Is but a breath

be alarmed et tbe present wind-still. Se
much Is certain, that tliore are net goods
enough In the market tn go ureuMl and
some tlme or another they will be eagerly
looked for.
