TTTCU HIM THE PUAftfin
OF EMBEZZLEMENT
Case of Tax Collector T. E. Roland, of
Dunmorc, Is Now On.
WHAT THE DEFENSE WILL SHOW
Allocation Is that .Mr. ltolnntl Turned
in Taxpayers on tho Kxoncrntlon
lilst from Whom 11a llitd Collected
Tnxos--N'ctuly All Uny Tnkon U"
with tho Hearing of Testimony for
tho l,rosccutlon--Viirioii8 Cases of
Minor Importance Disposed Uf.
Tho case of ex-Tax Collector T. 13.
Bolnnd, of Dunmore, charged by Jere
miah McPeok with tho embezzlement
of $1,500 of the county's funds, was
called for trial before Judge Edwards,
In court room No. 2 yesterday morning.
John P. Bcragg assists the common
wealth in. the prosecution ot tho case.
Hon. John P. Kelly and Hon. M. K.
McDonald appear for tho defense.
Tho allegation ngainst Mr. Boland
is that he collected nnd converted to
his own uso taxes which were turned
In by him on his exoneration list.
A number of witnesses were called
wlio produced receipts showing that
they had paid taxes to Mr. Boland for
tho year 1S93, and thitn County Com
missioners' Clerk C. P. Wngner showed
from his records that they hnd been
exonerated. Tho amount alleged to
have been collected In this way figures
ur to about $15.
Tho opening for the defense was made
by Mr. Kelly Just before adjournment.
Ho raid they proposed to prove that
Mr. Koland did not embezzle oven the
$15, to which amount tho "$1,500 or
upwards" of tho indictment has dwin
dled. Ho then went on to explain that
In tho spring of 1S90, when Mr. Bo
land wont .to the- commissioners' of
llce to make a settlement of his dupli
cate, there was some objection offered
to the size of tho exoneration list and
Iho commissioners refused to approve
it until he had made further effort to
reduco it. The exoneration list was
left in the commissioners' custody, nnd
ho proceeded to lessen its amount as
per directions of tho commissioners.
Ah during the summer while collecting
tho 1S9G duplicate, he worked on the
IS95 (exoneration list, and hero nnd
thoro succeeded In collecting a tax
that ho had for one cause or another
recommended for exoneration.
DUPLICATE OVERLOOKED.
In tho following December or in Jnn
uury, 1S97, h made n settlement with
tho commissioners nnd hnd his ex
oneration list approved. Ho had neg
lected to take his duplicate along, and
being anxious for a settlement so that
his bondsmen might be released, he
attempted, with tho aid of his memory
only, to check off such Items on the ex
oneration list as ho hud succeeded in
collecting during the summ.tr.
He discovered afterwards, upon con
sulting his books, that ho had neg
lected to check off some few of the
exonerated names, but thinking It of
llttlo consequence nnd hardly worth
while reopening the settled account
of 1S93, he turned in these moneys at
tho time of his next settlement. His
only offense, Mr. Kelly contended, was
his mistake in not making a separate
settlement for the 1S93 account.
Twenty-llvo or more character wit
nesses will be put on tho stand this
morning to show that Mr. Boland is
not the kind of a man who would
stoop to the embezzlement of a few
paltry dollars.
Valentine Ankavltch, a Prlceburg sa-i
loonkeeper, was tried before Judge Mc
Cluro on a charge of larceny nnd re
ceiving, preferred by William II.
Smith, another saloonkeeper of the
place. Smith, it appears, was engaged
to marry Ankuvltch's daughter, and
among tho presents ho bought her was
a wedding dress. She refused to marry
him, and ho demanded tho return of
the dress or Its equivalent. She re
fused to listen to him, and ho had her
father arrested for larceny and receiv
ing. Judge McClure directed the Jury
to return a verdict of not guilty. An
kavltch and his son, Charlos.wero tried
later on tho charge of assault and bat
tery, preferred by Jose-ph Pawkleeki
and were acquitted. Pawkleeki fell
asleep InthoAnkavItchsaloon one night
nnd was locked in unknowingly by tho
proprietor. During tho night, when he
made some noise that awoke tho peo
ple in tho house, ho was mistaken for
a burglar and larruped in lively shape
by tho two Ankavltches.
SOME MINOR CASES.
Mary Barrett was acquitted of tho
clinrgo of assault and battery, and tho
prosecutrix, Winnie- McLean, was di
rected to pay tho costs.
Georgo Kelaznlskus was returned not
guilty of tho charge of larceny by
bailee, preferred by Joseph Bartash.
rowell . Powlock, charged with fel
onious wounding, was returned not
guilty. Peter Buzy was the prosecu
tor. Joseph Summer was Indicted for the
costs of tho case In which he prose
cuted Michael Zedulc for assault and
battery.
Prank Schutta was acquitted of as
sault and batterv nnd thn nrnannnfr...
Joseph Muzzen, was directed to pay
the costs,
Tony Ituch, tho only defendant found
guilty of assault and battery during
the day, was sentenced to pay a fine
of $15 and costs. Ho was charged with
beating his cousin, Annie Monela, of
Little England.
"W. II. Patterson, another defendant
of tho assault and battery stripe, has
tho satisfaction of seeing lil-i prosecu
tor, Paul Saluskey, pay the costs.
Leon Oichefski was up again yes
terday, this time for assault and bat
tery on his brother, Joseph Oichefski.
He escaped prosecution through the
non-apn?aranco of the brother.
John Casper ajid Charles Ellsky nre
on trial before Judge Ounster on the
charge of malicious mischief, preferred
by Harry Dolph.
Edward George, who was tried Mon
day on a charge preferred by Annlo
Zlntol, was returned guilty yesterday
morning. Judge Searlo didn't think ho
was very guilty, however, nnd let him
off with a line of $5 and costs.

It la an unfortunate visitation that
now nfllicts tho family of Rev. Mr.
Aldricb, tho pastor of Orace church In
the attack of scarlet feve'r which now

AFTER THE FIRE FIEND.
Good Description Has Been Obtained oi
tbc Dunmorc Incendiary He Did
His Work Well.
The Dunmoro uolico nnd Insurance
men nre on an active hunt for the
lncennlnry who early yesterday morn
ing caused the destruction of the car
penter shop and barn owiifil by Con
tract r Prank P. Connolly on Electric
avenue and attempted to burn tho
dwelling- occupied by Valentine Bern
hardt and family. The ilio "vtj exclu
sively reported In yostrlay t Trlliim.
The man wan seen by several persons
and his nncst Is assured If he remains
In this vicinity.
It was learned yesterday that nftcr
falling to burn th'o Bernhardt house
with oil-soaked rags placed in the cel
lar, the fiend waited nearly twenty mi
nutes and returned and kindled a lire
under a bay window. Tho first at
tempt had been early discovered by the
family but tho second visit of tho in
cendiary was not learned until after
the Wind had extlnzutshed tho bay
window tire. Then It was that Bern
hardt procured a. loaded revolver and
sat In an open second-story window
wnltlng for a shot ut tho marauder
who could bo heard moving among tho
trees.
Where the blaze started In Contrac
tor Connolly's shop Is not known. Tho
building Is shielded from view from tho
Bernhardt building by foliage. When
thi! carpenter shop fire was discovered
Mr. Connolly and a few others noticed
a man standing with his back against
a nearby building. Ho helped remove
a. small quantity of lumber from the
shop and then disappeared.
Tho stranger was about S" years old,
dark conndexloned and had a shortly
cropped black moustache. He waa
slim in bulU, and wa3 ordinarily,
though comfortably dressed In a brown
suit, railed shirt and soft felt hat.
Only $300 Insurance was carried on
the two Connolly properties which were
totally destroyed.
BUNCOERS ABROAD : BEWARE !
It is the trick of tho Bryanized De
mocracy this fall ttS make falso
charges against Republican mithods,
ralso a big dust, hire Republican mal
contents to organize Republican bolts
and then coax Individual Republicans
to desert their party on tho represen
tation that "party ties needn't count
for anything In an off year." By this
trick. If it shall work, tho Bryanltes
will get a foothoW for a hopeful light
In national campaigns, and make Just
so much morn troublo for McKinley,
tho Republican congress and the cause
of sound mency.
You now sco through this trick. Aro
you going to let it work?

A SCRANTON CROOK.
It was reported that O'Nell betrayed
his pals to the police nnd brought about
their arrest. He Is said to hall from
this city. This statement Is contra
dicted by information from excellent
authority received by The Tribune and
given here. Ono of tho numerous de
tectives employed on the case con
ceived tho idea of visiting the several
exoress offices In this city.
This was done with the discovery
that a mysterious pnekage had been
shipped from here to New York city a
few days after the burglary. It is said
that through this discovery the arrest
of the three men were made. The
package was traced from New York to
Chicago, and when "Sheeney Joe" and
his compatriots entered the National
Express ollico there last Friday .they
were arrested by the detectives.
