12 THE PITTSBURG' DISPATCH: SATURDAY. " SEPTEMBER 10. l892.v A FROST OFFICE FUND Causing Considerable Trouble to Al legheny City Officials. CHIEF MUBPHY'S TEIAL FIXED. radical Eraedy for a Malignant Case of Spring Fever. THE SEWS OP THE COUNTY COURTS The attention of the Criminal Court will be engaged on Monday with, the trial of John K. Murphj, Chief of the Department of Public Safety of Allegheny, and Detee t'lTes John Glenn, Frank Donaldson, Henry Kornman and Samnel NcClure for embez zlement. These cases arise out of the famous trial of ex-Mayor Pearson, of Allegheny. On bis trial for embezzlement, at which he was acquitted, it was charged that he re tained iees, paid to him by the connty on the commitment of prisoners to the jail and workhouse, which he should have turned over to the City tCeasurer. The detectives testified at the trial that the money had been collected by them and turned over to the "iront office land." Current expenses were paid out of this fund, and the balance was divided between them at the end of the month. Charges were then made against them and addi tional interest will be given the trial from the fact that Controller Grier holds that the Mayors of cities are not entitled to such lees, as they receive a fixed sum per year from the county in lieu of them. CONVICTIONS AND PLEAS. Some Stand Trial In Criminal Conrt Others Flead Gnllty John Kaylor With. Many Allasei and the Spring Fever Gets Kino Tears. In Criminal Court yesterday John Kay lor, the man with many aliases, who pleaded guilty the previous day to forgery, larceny, false1 pretense and a number of other charges, was yesterday sentenced to the prnitentiary for nine years. There were nine indictments against him and he got a year on each one. Attorney McGeary represented Kaylor, and tried to impress the court with what he called the insignificance of the case. "Kay lor," he said, "had only gained 5113 in all of his transactions, and it was a sort of a spring fever lie had for committing such loolisb acts. "Well," said Judge Kennedy, "I guess he had better take sufficient tim e to get over this disease." And then he se ntenced Kavlor. Thomas Hackett, who pleaded guilty to the charge of assaulting Fred Lee, and also of escape from the workhouse, was sent up lor five months. ltichard Davis, on a charge of escape from the n orkhouse, was sent back for 60 days. M. Grav, a Union Jfews agent, pleaded gnilty to the larceny of ?3 and was sent to Claremont for tno months. Henry Palmer, the gentleman who had the fence on Penn avenue, was tried on the charge of stealing a typewriter from the Pittsburg Phonograph Company, and con victed. There are a number of other charges pending against him yet. Charles George was tried for assaulting Ada Mittndge, a 9-year-old girl, but the jurv disagreed. Thomas Kestner was convicted of the larceny of a pocketbook from Caroline Grainer, of the Sonthside, and was sent to the workhouse for 30 days. Alfred Craeton pleaded guilty to the larceny of a coat from J. A. Miller, of the 12ast End, and was sentenced to the work house for 30 days. James P. Biley was found guilty of the larceny of a wagon, and was sent to the v orkhouse for a rear. George "Weisenberger pleaded guilty to the cnarge oi assault, on oatn ot Henry Steinbaueh, and was sent to Claremout for four months. "William Sandusky was charged by a man named Phillips, a wholesale butcher, with false pretense in running up an account amounting to about 5200 on false repre sentations. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to the workhouse for 30 davs. TWO 1MP0ETANT SUIT! The City Sued for Light Furnished by the .Allegheny Light Company. Attorney V. B. Eodgers yesterday en tered suit in behalf of the Allegheny Light Company azainst the city of Pittsburg for SL274 G2. This amount, it is claimed, is due for light furnished. Of this sum 274 C3 is for incandescent lights furnished the market bouse in March, and for the months of March, April and May 5333 33 per month is due, as per contract, for light ing City Hall. The lights, it is alleged, were duly contracted lor by the proper city officials, but payment has been refused. In Common Pleas Na 1 yesterdav a Etated case between W. C. O'Eeillv, plain tiff, and C. C Craft, burgess, and P. A. llonebrake, James Munnell, Michael Breen, H. AV. Holmes John Campbell and G. W. Bichards, members of Council of Crafton borough, defendants, was filed. The borough was incorporated in January, 1892, and in February the election of officers was held. Bonebrake and Munnell were chosen lor Council lot three years, Breen and Holmes lor two years and Campbell and Itichardsone year. Certificates of election were issued to them. O'Beilly received the third highest number of votes for the two year term and also received a certificate of election. The others, however, won't permit him to take a seat in council. He now raises the ques tion as to who is entitled to seats in the council, claiming there is no warrant in law for the election of any person to serve lor three years, and that he was properly elected lor two years. The court is asked to decide the matter, and, if O'lteilly's po sition is right, to issue a mandamus com pelling his admission to the Borough Coun ciL K0T TT GBAHIED. Judge Bofilncion Has Not Tet Acted Upon the Case of Sheriff McCormick. United States District Attorney Lyon is the only one of the officials who has re turned from Williamsport. Judge Buffing toa has not yet granted the rule asked for against Sheriff McCormick, of Fayette county, to show cause why he should not answer for contempt, and will not probably do so until his return. Should the rule bo granted Sheriff McCormick will be notified and all parties heard. As the Judge of the United States Dis trict Court sentenced the prisoners, who are alleged to have worked for the Sheriff when they should have been serving their sentence in jail, the case will come up there and not in the Circuit Court. A IETJE BILL. Tho Grand Jury Iodic s C. II. Blaine, of Verona, W ho Forfeits His Bond. A true bill was found yesterday against G H. Blaine, charged with larceny; by John Crookston, a merchant ot Verona. Blaine was a dashing young society man of that place and was popnlar in his set His ar rest on a charge of taking money from the till of Mr. Crookston's store filled Verona society with amazement. The defendant was placed under 5300 bond for a hearing, the young man's father and Charles Beinhard, going on his bond.
