SALVATORE'S SLAYER
IS CAPTURED
Hi Was Arrested at 5 O'clock Last
Night in Carbondale.
HE HAS A STAB WOUND IN THE BACK
The Man With. Whoa Dainbrasio Was
Staying Came to Dunmore Ycstct
tlirf to (Jet Some Money to Aid Hi in
to Escape trout the Country and in
That Way Uis Whereabouts Be
came Kuouu.
Frank Dambrosio, who murdered
Bocco Salvaturs at Bunker Hill, Dun
more, at C.30 o'clock last Friday even
ing, and escaped after committing; the
deed, was cartured at 8 o'clock last
nlht in Carbondale and is now in the
county Jail, lie fell into the hands of
the otlieers through a man named Ra
fael Samnto, who came to Dunmore
yesterday afternoon to get money to
enable the murderer to escape from the
country.
Bocco Marclnl. of the West Side, a
friend of Salvatore. f.dt confident that
the murder was pre-arranged and that
Frank Chiprlano. the man with whom
the dead mun and his slayer boarded,
was on accessory. Plppo Dambrosio, a
brother of the murderer, and Joseph
l.ozcrnzo were also suspected of being
concerned in the crime, and Marclnl
kwore out warrants Saturday before
Alderman Miliar charging them wltu
being accessories.
The warrants were placed In the
hands of Special Olllcer John Tlerney,
He urrested Chiprlano Saturday night
and brought hlin to the central police
station. Yesterday afternoon he went
to Dunmore tu arrest Dambrosio, the
murderer's brother, and Lorenzo. When
be was bringing both to ths street car
to bring them to the lockup, an Italian
stopped them and began talking to
Dambrosio.
T1EBXEV SUSPECTED THEM.
Otlloer Tlerney could find out noth
ing from his prisoner about the man
that spoke to them. They tried to nuike
believe that he lived In Dunmore and
that he wns carrying on merely a com
monplace conversation about their go
ing to juil. Hut they were so anxious
to convey that impression that he sus
pected they were not telling the truth.
A little while before that Constable
Frank Williams, of the Tenth ward,
who Is an Italian, saw the sume man
ami knowing him to be from Carbon
dale and a lrlend of Dambrosio, he Im
mediately Kuspootsd that Samato was
the bearer of some message from the
murderer. It proved to be the fact
that Samato was the man who hud the
conversation with Orllcer Tlerney's
pi isoners, and that what he wanted was
money to help the murderer escape
irom the country to Italy.
The Information was communicated
to County Detective Lyphon, nnd he
x. iit word to Chief of Police McAn
drew, of Carbondale. The chief and
Patrolman MoAndrew went to Sama
to's house and there they found Dam
brosio. lie offered no resistance nnd
admitted his Identity. They took him
to the lookup ami waited for the arrival
of County Detective Leyshun.
Mr, Leyslion, Constable Frank' Will
lams and Coin-table Timothy Jones
went to Carbondale and they took
charge of the murderer. Constable
Williams, who knew him, wns along
for the purpose of identification, but
it was not necessary, for Dambrosio
acknowledged that he was the man and
lie seemed to be content to go to jail.
He wns not tho least disturbed at his
arnst, nnd he took it very coolly.
An examination of his buck reveald
tl.e fact that Chiprlano was not telling
an untruth when he said that ambivsio
was slabbed. There Is a small wound
behind the right shoulder, and it looks
as if it wob done with a knife. Dam
brosio was very reticent and had noth
ing to say except that he kill d Salva
tore for fear of getting killed himself.
He believed that his own life was In
dancer when he struck the blow that
sent Salvatore U his fate.
It was learned that as soon as he
committed the crime, he went to the
house of Hafaol Chipriano In Dunmore,
who Is nn uncle of Frank Chipriano,
his boarding boss, and changed his
clothes. Then ho started for Carhon
dale. He arrived at the house of Sa
mato, on DundalT street at 8 o'clock
Suturday night, having walked all the
way. i n his way up he was often
fearful that he wns being followed, and
he switched oil Into the woods several
times and remained concealed for a
while.
Then his courage would pick up
nKiiin, and he would rely on his not
being known to preserve him from
capture. As soon ns he got to Carbon
ibile he went to Samnto's house, and
the latter started for Dunmore yester
day to see Dambroslo's brother to get
money to help the fugitive out of the
country.
Dambrosio expoctsd that his friends
In Dunmore would supply him wllh
money to reaeh Italy. He had none
himself, and unless they gave it to
him ho would not be able to go far.
When Samato got to Dunmore he
found Olllcer Tlerney with the hand
cuffs on the brother. There was no
body else to whom he could go and
expect anything from. He made a can
vass among the Italians of Bunker
Hill for assistance, but none of them
could be Induced to do anything for
ambroslo. Before Lamato returned
home the officers had visited his house
and arrested the murderer,
BBOl'GHT TO THIS CITY.
Mr. Leyshon and Constnbles Jones
and Williams took Dambrosio down
from Carbondale on tne street car.
They had him securely handcuffed, and
when the corner of Lackawanna and
Franklin nvenuna was reached and
they got off the Peckvllle car. there
was a crowd of 1.000 people around In
less than five minutes to get a look at
the prisoner.
(flicer Tlerney took Chiprlano with
lilrn to Carbondale at 5 o'clock in the
afternoon to search Samato's house
nnd look for Dnmbroslo, but when they
reached Carbondale on the street car,
'lambrosio had been arrested and was
then In custody.
Chipriano Dambrosio, the murderor'3
brother, and Lorenzo, will have a hear
ing this morning before Alderman Mil
lar on the charge of being accessories.
Marcinni hcTs to be able to have evi
dence enough to prove that there was a
conspiracy to murder Salvatore, and
that Chiprlano was at the bottom of
It.
The stab wound In Dambroslo's back
disiH-ls the doubt that there was a
sculfle between him and Salvatore, an 1
the story told by Chipriano is probably
true. Salvatore will be burled this af
ternoon. Wonder Kgg Beater,

FOR PYNEOROUGH.
Evidence Taken Saturday Morning
Bclore Judge Edward.
Before Jud;e Edwards on Saturday
the ttruver of the citizens of the Pyne,
Archbuld, Continental, Hampton and
Sloan villages In Lackawanna town
ship for a borough to be called the
borough of Pyne was heard. Major
Everett Warren was counsel for the
petitioners and evidence was taken to
show that it would be a great Im
provement to incorporate these places
Into a borough.
Attorneys I. H. Burns, M. J. Dona
hoe and H. M. Hannah appeared in
opposition to the petition. They repre
sented a .number of property owners in
Minpoka. The main reasons advanced
why the borough should be Incorporat
ed are that the school facilities and
police protection are so bad that It Is
burdensome to live there. The mall
system Is very poor, and It Is neces
sary to walk three miles to post a let
ter. The annual tax Is now 42 mills on the
dollar, and it wns claimed that if they
had a boroush the taxation would be
greatly lessened. On the part of the
people opposed to the borough. It was
claimed that there are only two stores
and two hotels In the whole district,
and the hotels are nothing more than
mere drinking places. They also claim
It would Injure the rest of the town
ship. The case was adjourned at noon, and
will be resumed next week.
DEATH OF REV. JAMES M'ANDRF.W.
Passed Away at the Ilame of Ills
Parents Yesterday .Homing.
Rev. James E. McAndrews, whose Im
minent demise was noted In Saturday's
Tribune, passed away yesterday morn
ing at 4 o'clock, at the home of his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. McAn
drews, corner of Adams avenue and
Vine street.
Father McAndrews had been a pa
tient suffered for many years. In the
winter of 18D3, he was attacked with
the grip, which was so widely preval
ent at the time, and from a relapse
contracted pneumonia. This developed
empyema, which was the cause of
deuth. A sursical operation and care
ful medical attention brought about a
partial recovery, but he never gained
sullicient strength to overcome the
dread disease. Until about six weeks
ago he was able to attend quite regu
larly to the duties of his sacred otlice,
but with the advent of the colder
weather his infirmity again overcame
him and he began to sink slowly but
steadily until death came to relieve
his sufferings yesterday.
The deceased was born on the West
Side on March 4, 1868. His early edu
cation was received at St. Cecelia's
academy and the Scranton high school.
He repared in the classics In a three
year course at St. Charles college, Elll
cott City, Md., and finished his edu
cation at Niagara university. He was
ordained to the priesthood by Kr. Rev.
Bishop O'Hara, at St. Peter's cathe
dral as assistant priest. He had charge
of the mission at Lake Ariel during
the past summer, and was, It was
thought, destined to be pastor of the
church, which the bishop contemplates,
establishing there. Futher McAndrews
has been connected with the cathedral
since he was seven yeurs of age, be
ginning as one of Its altar boys and
dying one of Its priests.
His whole life since he arrived at
the ase of reason, was thus given to
the service of his Creator. He had but
one Master, and that Master had n
most dutiful and loving servant. When
he was permitted to realize the great
ambition of his life, which at one time
it was feared would be denied him on
account of his failing health, he was
hopeful that he might bo spared to
show by his work his great gratitude
for the blessing vouchsafed him, but
when It was evident that his Master
willed otherwise he was resigned and
prepared to meet the summons, which
he felt would inevitable come in a
short time.
The remains at present are at his
parents' home. Tuesday evening they
will be removed to St. Peter's cathe
dral, where they will lie In state un
til Wednesday morning, when Inter
ment will take place. A solemn high
mass of requiem will be celebrated at
9.30 o'clock. Interment will be In Hyde
Park Catholic cemetery.
WORK OF SPRING BROOK COMPANY.
Progress That lias Been Made in
Perfecting Its Plant.
At a meeting of the officers of the
Spring Brook Water Supply company
the other day In Wilkes-Burre, reports
were heard of the extensive Improve
ments that have been made during the
year. The principal stockholders of
the Spring Brook company are Seran
tonlans and they are doing a great ser
vice in giving Wllkes-Barre what it
has sadly needed for years, a sullicient
supply of good water.
Since May 1 the company has erected
a pumping plant at West Plttston and
Installed In It two large pumps with a
daily capacity of lifteen million gal
lons. These pumps will take water
from the Susquehanna above the Lack
awanna. They are not being used at
present and will only be used as emerg
ency pumps In case of extreme drouth.
The company has adopted plans for a
large filter above the Lackawanna to
take the place of the temporary filter.
The company has laid about six and
one-half miles of 30-lnch pipe from
Plttston to Dorranceton and has con
nected this with the main Spring Brook
system pipes running up to Spring
Brook. At Dorranceton this pipa con
nects with a 24-inch pipe which was
formerly connected with the Huntsvllle
reservoir. The company has also laid
nearly five miles of 16-Inch pipe to its
new supply at Mill Creek and conduct
ed this to the city of Wllkes-Barre.
In nddltion to this there has been
laid a line of 24- Inch pipe to the upper
or No. 2 reservoir at Laurel Run. It
was also found necessary to lay several
miles of 20-inch pipe through the city
of Wllkes-Barre to take the place of
weak pipe for fifty foot head which
was found Inadequate to hold the pres
sure of the present system. This 20
lnch line has been very expensive by
reason of its having been laid through
paved streets, rock and under numer
ous railroads.
That the people of Wllkes-Barre
might have mountain water the com
pany has cut off the Huntsvllle and
Crystal Lake supplies entirely. They
are about completing what they term
a colliery line, through which the
Huntsvllle water Is taken to breakers
for steam purposes. It Is tne purpose
of the company to conduct a colliery
line also on the East Side, In connection
with the old Crystal Spring system,
thus utilizing the Crystal Spring water
for strain purposes and saving the
water from pure mountain brooks for
domestic purposes.
Work will be continued constructing
the dams In the Spring Brook water
shed, for the purpose of storing enough
water to last through any drouth.

MURDERER VAN HORN
IN A MAYFIELD MINE
Belief That He Was There HerjbletKd
Almost to Certainty.
THE PAPERS FOUND LN HIS LAIR
Searching Party That Went Through
the Miue Saturday found a Car
bondale Paper of the Previous
Evening, but the Man Who Had
Bern Hiding Could Not Be Found.
Van Horn Has a Brother Residing
atMaificld.
The belief that George Van Horn, the
murderer of Mrs. Josephine Wescott,
has been hiding In the Erie mine at
Maylleld, Is now heightened to almost
a certainty In the minds of tho people
of that locality.
Saturday, It will be remembered, an
nouncement was made in The Tribune
that one of the company hands. Mi
chael Ruddy, while going through an
abandoned part of the workings came
across a mini who, at Ruddy's ap
proach, ran away and escaped by drag
ging himself through an opening In the
roof which led out to the Maylleld "ard.
A search of that part of the mine was
hastily made and a quantity of bed
ding, an oil stove, cooking utensils and
n number of Scranton and Carbondale
papers, containing references to the
murder, were found in an Isolated
chamber.
Saturday a searching party was or
ganized, anil the hunt was commenced
at the point where the mysterious
dweller In the mine had made his habi
tation. Great was the surprise of the
searchers when upon reaching the
place they found a copy of the Carbon
dale Herald of the evening previous
containing the account of the presence
of some one in the mine. This thoy felt
mnde their search useless, but never
theless they persisted in It and every
nook and corner of the mine was care
fully scrutinized. Whoever It was thnt
hud been there wob no longer In tho
mine they were satlslled, and after a
day's hard work gave up the chase.
Th?se circumstances connected with
the fact that Van Horn has a brother
at Mayfield and other relatives In Jer
myn. causes the conviction that It was
he whom Ruddy startled last Friday.
The supposition Is that he hid among
the cars until nightfall and then de
scended to his den In the mine, remain
ing there until the paper wns dropped
down to him, when he took flight, real
izing that the mine would be thorough
ly searched as soon as the alarm be
came general.
If It wns Van Horn Tie Is now un
doubtedly at the house of one or tho
other of his friends, and his capture Is
a possibility of the near future.

ANOTHER MISMATED COUPLE.
(corgo E. Mcl'ann Seeks Divorce
From a Deserting Wife.
George E. McCann, through his at
torney, F. F. Gibbs, on Saturday began
proceedings In divorce against his wife,
C'Eirie E. McCann, alleging dsisertlor.
as the grounds for his seeking an an
nulment of their marriage.
They were married In 18SS, and llvad
together until 1SU2, when he alleges he

reason.
WHIMS OFGREAlrNESS.
Daniel Webster hud a curious fancy for
pulnting the faces of his cattle. One week
the poor beasts would walk around with
blue faces und the next would appear
with red ones. On his farm he kept many
head of cattle, anil some of them usenmu
so fond of the great expounder that they
would follow him ubout like dogs. Among
tho number were several that resented
his friendliness, and in order to punish
these and distinguish them from the rest
he fainted the face of each a beautiful
blue.
The effect wns no novcil that it pleased
him, and from that time forth he chained
the color whenever he had a few min
utes to spare and would laugh heartily
at the astonij'uucnt of h!s friends vhei:
they saw the queer looking, beasts on his
premises.
Napoleon occupied a) his Idle raiments
In muklng iv p'lwies and Indulging li In
trigues. He srld it relieved a man's mind
when tired. He would sit for hours trying
to devise a puczl- that his comrade could
not solve. When tired of this he loved
to fight mimic battles, and becan' ang:y
when he lost. He had his garden con
structed in the form of a miniature Held,
with forts, treuihes, water way? nnd
dummy soldi. th, by means of which ha
fought sham battles with his officers.
Peter the Great had a fashion for be
ing carried about In a wheelbarrow, and
when not fighting would allow himself
for hours at a time to be wheeled around
his estates. He said he liked the motion.
After a campaign he, would return homo
with a number of guests and at once or
der wheelbarrows to be got In readiness.
Peter on more than one occasion visited
the largi) cities In this strange tqulpuge.
William the Conqueror said he derived
more pleasure watching dogs fighting than
anything else besides winning a battle.
His subjects all over the kingdom sent
him ilous by the hundred. From these
he wouid select the fiercest and sit for
whole days watching the fights. He had
a sneeial retinue of servants und attend
ants who did nothing but arrange the
contests.
George Washington's prinelpnl diver
sion was training baby foxes He was
fond of fox hunting and would pay well
for a litter of young Reynards. He took
the animals home and trained them in
all kinds of tricks, which he often exhib
ited to friends. He used to say that the
fox had more brains than any other ani
mal. President Cleveland likes to point the
children's toys and little odds and tnds
of household furniture. This Is not ui
tlstle, to be sure, but more than one pat
erfamilias knows how much real diver
sion there Is in working with paint pot
and brush. Heated on a stool, with the
youngsters of the white house around
him, the president will amuse himself for
hours embellishing their toys In the live
liest shades.
Gladstone employs his spare time In
wood carving, and he Is snld to produce
some very One work. He learned the art
when a boy, and ha as complete a wood
carving shop as any carver In England.
Some of the decorations of his .home are
his own work, and if he made a business
of it he would be a success.
Kaiser Wl'.llam finds more amusement
In curling his mustache than In almost
any pastime. On every appearance In pub
lic his mustache has a diffrcnet curt. All
of these are original, so much so. In fact,
that before his admirers la the Oermnn
empire have "caught on" to the new
"style" he appears with another.
Speaker Thomas B. Reed has a pastime
that Is trulv his own. He stands In an
open window and recites poetry by the
vard. He Is especially partial to LonRrel
iow. Mr. Reed recites Tennyson and
Whittler also, but he Is strong on the
breezy western poems that have a ring of
defiance In their lines.
IT IS EPIDEMIC.
From the Boston Journal.
And now Sweden, too, after a brief trial
of partial free trade, decides to go back
to protection. There seems to something
like an epldemto of "McKlnleylsm" all
round.
POLICEMAN'S FINGER CHEWED.
Wilkes Barreon Paid Ten Dollars for

John Montaugh, of Wllkes-Barre,
