Anthony Mazotta, who Is the big
landlord of the Tenderfoot precinct,
some time ago contracted a rent bill.
Anthony was arrested and the case
was settled upon the defendant's prom

Intentions, but bunlness prevented him
from paying the money In person. So
he gave the money ti his best friend,
John Stelble, and John started off to
hand over the $lu to Constable Jones.
But John likes beer and he spent the
money. For this he nlso spent Satur
day nlnht In the police station and Ma-

ANOTHER DISTURBANCE.
Members of Father Aost's Coogretalioa
Force Their Way Into the School
Hall-Arrests Will Follow.
There was another clah yesterday at
St, Mary's Polish church on the South
Side, between Rev. Father Aust and the
members of the parish who want to
dethrone him. The priest stated In an
Interview last night with a Tribune re
porter that patience has ceased to be a
virtue, and he proposes to invoke the
aid of the law to punish those who
participated In yesterday's transaction,
One of the oppositionists burst in the
door of the school hall and another
forcibly climbed through a window. Fa
ther Aust said he will have the men
arrested, but will first have a confer
ence with Bishop O'Hara, and unless
the bishop advises him to the contrary
the warrants will be sworn out.
After late mass Joseph Nytch came to
Father Aust and asked for the key to
the school hall. The request was re
fused. After dinner Father Aust drove
to Clark's Summit on a sick call, and
In his absence members of the congre
gation forced their way Into the hall
and held a meeting. The object of it
was to raise money to defray the ex
penses of the various committees that
have been sent backward and forward
to Bishop O'Hara and Bishop Hoban.
A collection of $11.00 was taken up and
after that the meeting adjourned.
Later In the afternoon Daniel Lan-
gowska, employed on the Tygondik, got
Into a encounter with a young man who
upholds the priest and Langowsku's
face was severly battered.
LAW BREAKERS OF TWO DAYS.
Doings of Police During Last Forty,
eight Hours.
Between the hours of 3 and 4 o'clock
Saturday morning three men were
picked up by the police In different
parts of the central city for being
"dopey." William McLaughlin wanted
to sleep off his jag on the benches In
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern station, but the authorities there
wouldn't let him. He was lodged In the
police station and at the henring paid
t'i for the trouble he caused. Patrick
Oerrlty wasn't so particular. He went
to sleep on the sidewalk on Lackuwanni
avenue. This cost him $2.50. John Mul
lurkey selected a fruit stand at the
co'ner of Lackawanna and Penn ave
nues as his lodging quarters. When
Lieutenant John Davis woke him up he
was very wrathy, and threatened to do
dire things to the officer. His fine was
$3.
George Thurby, arrested for stealing a
watch from Wright's Jewelry Btore, on
Lower Lackawanna avenue, admitted
his guilt and went to Jan.
The Polander captured by Lieuten
ant Spellman and Pntrolinan Rldgeway,
In the art of robbing Applenup's shoe
shop on North Main avenue. Provi
dence, early Saturday morning, was
given a hearing before Alderman Fldler
Saturday afternoon and committed to
the county jail. He gave his name as
John Bran. His two pals have not as
yet been captured.
Joseph Spuke, a Hungarian, became
very boisterous on South Wyoming
avenue Saturday night and when taken
into custody by Special Officer John C.
Jones made such a stput resistance that
help had to be called for. Patrolmen
Day and Karlus hastened to the scene
with the patrol wagon and Spoke was
properly subdued. He paid $10 to Al
derman Howe yesterday morning.
William, O'Brien, of Second street,
went home Saturday night nnd threw
lamps, furniture nnd dishes at his wife.
She had him arrested and in police
court he was fined $5. Soon after the
hearing the wife was around begging
to havo releawed, declurlng that he
"didn't do a thing to her." He wasn't
released.
Miss Josephine Simpson, of Onkford
court, got on bad terms with herself
Saturday night and wanted everybody
In the neighborhood to know It. Putrol-
man Matthews thought she was too
boisterous ana despite her contention
that she "wasn't doln' nothln' to no
body," locked her up. She paid $3.
Simon Westway, a painter from Har
ford, Susquehanna county, got out of
the county Jail Saturday upon the pay
ment of something like $70 costs for
lewd actions up In Carbondule last June.
Yesterday morning he was caught In
the act of breaking Into the house of
C. M. Bush, 423 Sixth street. It Is not
thought that he had any burglarious
Intentions, but was simply crazy drunk.
At all events he will have to explain
his actions in court.
ADVANCE IN COAL FREIGHTS.
The Itise in the Tariff to Co Iuto
Effect Sept. 7.
The coal-carrying roads have at last
come to an agreement whereby the coal
freight rates from the mines to tide
water points and from the mines to
Buffalo and Niagara Falls are ad
vanced. The advance was somewhat of a sur
prise to the anthracite coal trade gen
erally, as the coal business some of
the large traders say is anything but
brisk, but It Is claimed to overcome
this the coal companies are mining only
enough coal to meet the daily require
ments, and each company Is seeing that
no large stock shall accumulate.
It was agreed to make an advance of
fifteen cents a ton on all coal freight
rates from the mine to tide and twenty
five cents a ton on all sizes of coal
freights from the mines to Buffalo and
Niagara Falls. This advance Is to go
Into effect on Sept 7. Commercial Ad
vertiser. Married at Binghamton.
Miss Nellie Hawk, of Elmhurst, and
C. J. Potter, of this city, were among
the excursionists to Syracuse Satur
day. The young people left the train
at Binghamton and a few hours after
