Leon Olchefskl was given a henrlnR
before Aldermnn Millar yesterday and
committed to Jail to awnlt trial on the
charge of blowing up the building at
Plttston avenue and Elm street nnd
damaging many others by tho explo
sion nnd subsequent fire. The offense
Is not bailable before an nlderman, The
evidence offered yesterday wns meagre
but Aldermnn Mlllnr snld II wns suf
ficient to make out a prima facia ense
ngnlnst the accused. Chlef-of-the-Flre
Department Hlckey nnd Detective Molr,
who represented the police department,
snld they hnd abundant evidence of Ol
chefski's guilt which will be produced
at the proper time.
At the hearing Olchefskl was repre
sented by ex-Judge W. II, Stanton and
Attorney C. E. Olver. At 4.05 they sig
nified their readiness to proceed with
the hearing and Aldermnn Miller said
to the prisoner: "Leon Olchefskl, you
are charged on the oath nnd nfllrmatlon
of Frank Robllng, Jr., Chlef-of-pollee,
with the crimp of arson on tho morning
of June 29. How do you plead, guilty
or not guilty?"
Olchefskl, coached by Attorney Olver,
said: "I plead not guilty nnd demnnd
a hearing."
The hearing began forthwith. John
Power O'Connor, secretnry to the
Chlef-of-pollce taking stenogrnphlc
notes of the testimony. The witnesses
examined were:
THE TESTIMONY.
John Klein, 518 Elm street "I paw
Leon Ochelfskl passing my house at 10
o'clock Monday night. He was carry
ing a common feed bag over his shoul
der. The contents did not seem to be
heavy." He did not hear the explosion
but was present nt the Are and de
scribed tho buildings he saw burning.
Miss Lena Hnmm "Leon Olchefskl
was brought Into our house nfter the
explosion to be cared for. After I had
washed his face I asked him If his
family was saved and be said he did
not know. He said that he went to bed
at 9 o'clock and did not know anything
else until he found himself under the
debris after the explosion. He was
attired In a white Bhlrt, trousers and
stockings, and nfter he wns put In bed
we took off one of his stockings nnd
threw it under the bed. Olchefskl
begged me to call his wife and I did so,
As soon as Mrs. Olchefskl came In her
husband spoke In Polish and she Im
mediately began to look around at the
foot of the bed and then raising the
clothes started to take off the other
stocking. I assisted her In doing this."
She thought Mrs. Olchefskl wanted
to take the stockings away with her.
In the morning she examined Leon Ol
chefskl's clothing and found them satu
rated with kerosene oil. Olchefski's
moustache on the left side was slightly
scorched. About six o'clock In the
morning Mrs. Olchpfskl and a Po
lish man came to her house with some
articles tied up In a clean sheet. She
followed Mrs. Olchefskl Into the sitting
room and Mrs. Olchefskl opened tho
package and took out n pair of trousers
for her husband and other articles of
clothing for the children.' The appenr
ance of the package excited Miss
Hamm's suspicion.
ODOR OF KEROSENE.
Mrs. Veronica Nltch "Some of Ol
chefski's furniture was taken to my
house and It smelled strongly of ker
osene nil."
John Keller "Mrs. Olchefskl came to
me after the lire and asked me about
bundles of her household goods."
This testimony was objected to and
Keller left the stand.
Adam F. Micholowskl "I saw Loon
Olchefskl between 10 and 11 oclock on
the night of the explosion. I have a
saloon In the building destroyed by the
explosion. I had been out walking with
my wife that evening nnd when I re
turned to my saloon Olchefskl was
there rending a paper nnd drinking a
glass of beer. I was lying on the floor
of a room adjoining my bedrooom as
leep when the explosion occured. I
looked out the window nnd saw the de
bris on the street and the flames shoot
ing from the wreck of the building
where my saloon was located and
then started to get my family out of
the building. I lived In the apartments
over Olchefski's apartments."
After he had finished, Judge Stan
ton said:
"I can't see that Adam knows any
thing about this case. Well, you lost
you sleep anyhow," he added, turn
ing to Adam.
"I'd be satisfied if that was nil I
lost," said Mldholowskl with much
feeling.
COMMITTED TO JAIL.
At the conclusion of Mr. Mlcholow
skl's testimony Alderman Millar said
he would commit Olchefskl to the
county Jail to answer a charge of ar
son. Judge Stanton entered a protest
against this ruling. He said there was
not a particle of evidence presented to
show that Olchefskl had been guilty
of any criminal act and that It was
very unjust to commit him to Jail and
compel him to ask for a writ of habeas
corpus or secure largo ball.
"TSiere Is plenty of otjier evidence,"
said Detective Molr, "twelve or fifteen
witnesses."
"If there Is any other testimony
against this man I am prepared to lis
ten to it, but I must strongly object
to his commitment on the evidence
thus far adduced," replied Judge Stan
ton. Mr. Olver supplemented Judge Stan
ton's remarks by stating that if Ol
chefskl Is committed fhe police will
make no effort to look further Into this
case and will bend all their energies
to fasten the crime on the accused. He
charged that the police were on tho
wrong track and said that If tho ofll
cers would bend their energerles in
another direction they might be suc
cessful In running down the culprit.
After the hearing Mr. Olver hinted
that a man had been seen near the cor
ner of Elm. street and Plttston ave
nue a few minutes before the explos
ion and Intimated darkly that ho was
the culprit. He said they proposed to
follow up the clue they have and by
showing who the real fiend Is prove the
Innocence of Olchefskl.
SPENT THE NIC5HT IN JAIL.
Olchefskl pcnt Tuobday night in Jail
and cried during a great part of tho
time. Yesterday morning his wife vIh
ltcd him and they had a ions' talk.
After the hearing yesterday afternoon
he wns taken back to the station hoUHn
by Detective Molr and spent Inst night
there. When leaving the nlderman'a
ofllce he Bald ho had i bondsman nnd
would go beforo one of the Judges nnd
enter ball for his appearance at court.
Evidently the bondsman did not np
pear. This morning Olchefski's attor
neys will apply for a writ of habeas
corpus.
After the hearing tho crowd that had
suffered all kinds of discomfiture in their
listening to the case surged outside
and a number of that element which is
fiercest in Its denunciation of Olchef
skl tarried on the big stone steps. They
were talking It all over and everybody
was of tho same opinion Olchefskl was
guilty.
The talk became fiercer and fiercer.
One man who seemed to be arguing
against any violence to the prisoner
was the centre of a hedge of tho
clenched fists of those who disagreed
with him. In the midst of the turmoil
a mnn whoso house was next to the
demolished structure was talking from
tho fourth step.
"I don't care," he exclaimed; "If that
man is guilty he ought to bo strung up
by the toe-nails!"
Some of the others expostulated
against this trcatmctit, saying: "that's
too hard."
NOT TOO HARD.
"Too hard!" veiled the man; "too
hard nnd what would you think of we
poor things, father and mother nnd
seven children sleepln' not one yard
awny from the building! Too hnrd! He
ought to be strung up by the toe-nnlls,
so h'e ought!"
All of which goes to show that Ol
chefskl will need is. bodyguard on the
South Side In the future.
South Side people last evening made
an onslaught on the pile of half-burned
wood which marked the site of the
Polish hall. During the early part of
the evening a great crowd had gath
ered around thp ruins, to all appear
ances bent on night seeing only.
Tho police have been very vigilant
cbotit the debris and up to last night
hardly a stick had been taken. But nt
8 o'clock rntrolmnn Schmidt decided
tovnlk a block on his beat. AVhen he
came back twenty minutes later the
huge pile of wood was gone nnd every
sttect on the South Side wns dotted
with romo persons bearing a back full
of timber.
It Is estimated that fifteen wagon
loads of timber was taken to be used
not as relics but for fire wood.

Around Independence day the city Is
