I". rndiluu Has Something to Say About That Alleged I'iplit. Continry to Constable Wchaul Bat ron's exptessed Intention ho did not cause the arrest of Hotelkeeper James Tvlb, of Prlcobuig, and M. F. Faddon, the owner of the hotel building, yester day, on tho charge of ptomotlng a pi be light. On the previous night the con stable and several olllcois visited Twlss' hotel and alleged that they put a stop to a pilze tight after thteo 1 omuls had been fought. Ai tests weie to follow jesteiday. When seen by a Tilbune ltpoiler yesteiday Mr. Fadden said: "No I have not been unested and will not be. That threat of an est was simply a bit of spite woik on Consta ble Bat ion's pait. Thursday evening I was told that Bait on contemplated a raid on Tw Iss' hotel and as I am the owner of the building I was natuially anxious to know what was being done that would wairant such action on tho pait of the constable. I went to see Tvviss and asked him for an explana tion. He told me that ho expected a number of fi lends at his place that evening and as a means of enteitalnlng them had secuted the services of two Scianton boxois who weie to have a filendly bout with gloves. As that sort of entn talnment Is permitted every vvh'eie I had no objection to offer as I was positively assuted that nothing In the wny of a finish fight was contem plated. "While we were talking Barton and a numbei of thugs entered the place and created the only disturbance that took place during the evening. At this time the men had not donned their gloves 01 struck a blow and the asseition that there lounds had been fought Is wholly inconect. The whole affair was en glneeied by Ban on to giatlfy a pet sonal spite and Injuie the house." THIRTY-THIRD ANNIVERSARY. Knights of Pjtlmis Celebrate with nu Kiitcrtniiimunt and Social.
