EXTORTION IS CHARGED.
J. J. Timlin, ol Flllccnllt Street, Ar-
rested Last Evening at the Instance
ot Mrs. William Ellington.
liast evening J. J. Timlin, of Fif
teenth street, was charged beforo Al
derman J3Ialr by Mrs. "William Edlntf
ton, of South Hydo Park nvenue, with
extortion and false pretense. It
KeemB that the International Frater
nal Alliance, hailing from Jlaltimoro,
onco did buslnesa In the Insurance Held
In this atatc. but the company lost Its
standing In March of 1896 according1 to
tho exactions of the iitato Insuranco
law.
This fact. It seema, did not deter
Timlin from writing out a policy on tho
life of Mrs. Susanna Reese, mother of
Mrs. Bdlnpton, This policy was dated
May 25, 1896, and upon It Mrs. Edlngton
had paid seven monthly premiums, for
which she had Mr. Timlin's receipt.
Hearing some time ago that the com
pany waa not safe, Mrs. Rdlngtorv
wroto the homo office and wan an
swered to the effect that tho company
was not and had not been represented
by these agents and she was referred
to P. J, Vottcr for further Information.
Her discoveries led her to demand a
refunding of tho paid out premiums,
amounting to 128.08, and Timlin re
turned her $20, but then demanded
liome of it back, claiming that ha had
not received all that was duo on his
receipts.
His reason for thts peculiar state of
nffalra was that Lewis P. Williams had
ngrced upon some unknown condition
to advanco a part of tho premium each
ttmo and that Timlin should give Mrs.
Kdlngttm a receipt In full, though only
receiving one-half from her.
Tho alderman held the defendant In
tho sum of $500 ball, and he, falling to
secure tho amount, was committed late
In the evening to the county Jail.
CLUB PRACTICALLY DISBANDED.
Twenty Members of the West Sido
Wheelmen Withdraw.
Tho West Side wheelmen have prac
tlcally disbanded. At a. meeting Tues
day night twenty of tho llf ty-slx mem
bers whose names are on the roll sent
in their resignations and by a major
ity voto tho resignations were ac
cepted. The split is due to lack of personal
harmony among the members. The
club was composed of young men of
Hevcral degrees and stations and va
rious social circles were represented.
To this 1s attributed the break-up. A
petition has been in circulation for the
past two weeks for the organization
of a new club and the twenty mem
bers who resigned signed the petition.
As tho club now Btands there are
not enough active members in It to
keep tho organization alive.

COURT PROCEEDINGS.
Concluded from Page 6.
youth who has served two three-year
terms for burglary, was on trial again
yesterday before Judge Edwards on a
similar charge. It Is alleged that ho
and Thomas Kane, jr., another Carbon
dale youth with a record, went to the
house of Nlcholns Devine, on Brooklyn
street, on the night of Jan. 10 last, be
tween the hours of 1 nnd 2 o'clock in
the morning, and attempted to rob
him. Mr. and Mrs. Devine, although
gray-headed, made such a stout resist
ance that the Intruders wore compelled
to withdraw without semiring nn
booty.
IDENTIFICATION POSITIVE.
Both are positive In their Identifica
tion of Kane, with whom old man De
vine had a hand-to-hand struggle and
Mrs. Devine Is sure that McQowan Is
tho man who rnn away after tho scuffle
with Kane began. It was also shown
that Kane and McGowan were together
that night and that they Inquired for
each other nt different places about
town.
McGowan's defense was an alibi. He
tried to show by a number of witnesses
that he was at a lestaurant on South
Main street from 1 o'clock until 3. 30
o'clock a. m. Kane skipped out day
before yesteiday, leaving his bondsman
to settle for his non-appearance.
Timothy McDonough and John Dal-
ton, of Austin Heights, wero tried for
the burglary of the clothing store ot
John S. Weible, at Taylor, on the night
of Dec. 4 last, when about $100 worth
of clothing was made nway with. The
only evidence against McDonough was
that a coat and vest that a witness
testified waB once worn by McDonough
were found with some of tho stolen
goods that had been dropped by the
wayside.
The evidence against Dalton was
simply that he was seen with a Dalr
of pants which Mr. Weible Identified as
part of the booty. Judge Edwards took
the McDonough case away from the
Jury and practically told the Jury that
the evidence against Dalton would not
warrant conviction, Attorneys Nathan
Vldaver and Evnn Thomas, of Wllkes
Barre, appeared for the defense.
