FULL SfORY OF THE
MAYFIELDMBBERY
BEINO TOLD BY WITNESSES 01?
COMMONWEALTH.
Dalton Was Positively Identified ns
Ono of tho Men Who Assisted in
Looting tho Office of the Carbon
dale Traction Copany Tho Flight
of the Men After the Robbery nnd
the Battle nt Ararat Summit De
scribed in Detail Other Cases
Heard.
In setting forth the commonwealth's
story of the Mayfleld burglary, District
Attorney John R. Jones' task Is to
show that tho six men who robbed tho
power house are tho same six men
who had tho encounter with "Bill"
Leach, at Ararat, ot which latter six
the defendants nre unquestionably
four.
To prove this he Is developing tho
case step by step, following the move
ments of the burglars, tracing them
from the power house to the Ontario
and Western tracks, along these tracks
to Carbondnle, then to Wilson's creek
on the Erie road nnd thence along the
Erie road to Ararat Summit.
Most of yesterday morning was
taken up with a presentation of 'the
Incidents at the power station and the
departure of the burglars. A map pre
pared by Ell Nicholson, of Jermyn, a
clerk In the Traction company's ofllce,
showing tho power citation and its sur
roundings, was admitted In evidence,
after which Engineer Frank Coggins
nnd Night Clerk W. R. Urockenshlre
testified to their encounter with the
burglars, which was practically the
same 11s tho story given by Fireman
Patrick Dempsey the day before.
DALTON IDENTIFIED.
Cogglns Identified Dalton as tho man
who came running from the winding
room through the corridor and out the
rear way when one ot the departing
burglars called out "Como on, Paddy."
Both Dempsey and Cogglns say the
man wore no mask and that there
was a light In the corridor. On cross
exnmlnntioli It was brought out that
it was not necessary for the burglars to
use force In entering; the ofllce, as the
door was unlocked.
Ilrokenshirc and W. S. Wagner, a
motorman, testified that one of the bur
glars followed the former to the bunk
room on the second floor and tried to
force an entrance. The conductors and
motormen who occupied tho bunk
room placed cots against the door nnd
prevented tho burglar from opening
the door more than six or eight inches.
Tho burglar called out, "Hrokenshire,
where are you?" Brokenshlre an
swered, "I'm In here." The burglar
admonished him to stay there and then
descended the stairs. Mr. Hrokenshire
said.
Ellas Cobb, one of the motormen,
avers that he took Hrokcnshlre's re
volver, followed the burglar down
stairs and opened fire on tho gang.
The burglars returned the fire, and
Cobb, having exhausted his ammuni
tion, retreated.
General Manager Flynn, of the Car
bondale Traction company, Identified
photographs of the power station and
gave an ornl description nf the prem
ises, after which court adjourned for
the noon recefs.
CORROBORATIVE TESTIMONY.
At the opening of the afternoon ses
sion District Attorney Jones called P.
J. Flannery, Frank Ditmore, J. l.
Iloyt nnd John Philbin, some trolley
car hands who were in the bunk room.
They corroborated the preceding wit
nesses In the incidents In which they
were chiefly concerned and told of how
one of the burglars, who was guarding
the rear door, fired at two of the trolley
car men, who popped their bends out
of the upstairs window. Two of them
testified to having watched the gang
depart; that there were six in the
p-rty and that after going about 100
feet up the road In tht direction ot
Carbondale took a sldcpath leading to
the Ontario and Western tracks.
Deputy Warden' (Jeorge Pryor testi
fied that a duplex cash ticket issueJ
by the Erie road was found on tho
person of Dalton, when he was
searched at the county jail. Conduc
tor Martin Murphy who Issued the
ticket Identified It and nlso recognized
Dalton as the man to whom It wa3 Is
sued, lie mild Dalton got on his train
at Susquehanna on the afternoon of
Haturday, March 25, to go to Carbon
dale. As his train was bound for lllng
hamton, he told Dalton he was golni;
tho wrong way and auvlsed him to
get off nt Hancock. Dalton got off at
Hancock.
Constable E. .1. Neary, tho prosecu
tor, was called to prove that tho de
fendants gave fictitious names when
taken into custody, but O'Brien &
Kelly objected on the grounds that this
was no: an evidence ot guilt, it being;
only natural that any man who falls
into Hip clutches of tho law would en
deavor to conceal his right name.
NOTHING TO PREVENT IT.
Judge Edwards agreed with the de
fendant's counsel that ho knew of
nothing In tho law that would permit
or the introduction of this testimony.
District Attorney Jones, nt this Junc
ture, entered upon the pursuit of tho
fugitives.
Conductor Thniras Mornn, of the On
tario and Western road, (old that his
train wan In the "caboose" switch ut
Mayfleld waiting orders on tho mornlna
of the burglary, about 1.30 o'clock,
when live or six men came along ttu
railroad walking rapidly In tho direc
tion of Carbondale. They were dressed
In black "lothes. When his train
reached Carbondale at 2.45 Constuble
Neary and other pursuers boarded It.
Looking across to the Erie trncks.som'i
300 feet away, he aw six men cross
ing Wilson's creek on tha railroad. Af
ter going 11 short dlsiunce, tho six
men left tho railroad anil took to the
wagon road for the distance of about
400 fei't, when they ugaln took the
Krlo tracks. He lost sight of them.
On cross-examination by Mr. Kelly,
tho witness admitted that he could not
Identify the men whom he raw at
Mayfleld ns the men seen at Wilson's
creek.
On redirect examination It wiib elic
ited that tho men left the Erie tracks,
when the pusher on tho Ontario and
Western train was cut loose, and
started back to Carbondale for Chlf
McAndrew.
A SIMILAR STORY.
William Davis and Harry Hernhardt,
brakemen on Conductor Moran's train,
told a similar story. Michael Clif
ford, who lives along the Ontario and
Western road about a. mllo and n
quarter above the Mayfleld yard, was
called and testified that ho was 111 th
night of tho burglary; that ho was
aroused by tho barking of his dos,
nnd looking out the window he saw
six men hurrying past In tho direction
of Carbondale. Mr. Clifford, however,
when put on the stand, proved very
much of a disappointment. He an
swered In the negative when asked
questions tending to bring out thlu
story.
Constable Neary was rc-callcd and
told of his chase nftor the gang. He
boarded Conductor Moran's train be
tween Carbondale nnd Mayfleld, and
took a place on tho "pusher" engine.
At Carbondale Chief of Police James
T. McAndrew nnd Patrolman William
McAndrew were picked up. Word was
received hero that six men were seen
In the Carbondale yard heading: north
ward. Constable Nenry continued on the
train, while the two McAndrewj
dropped oft at West Carbondale. Whan
the Ontario and Western train arrived
at Simpson, six men were sighted on
the Erie tracks across the river, four
hundred feet distant. They wore
standing where tho trolley road crosses
the Erie tracks. Constable Neary had
the train plopped nnd the pusher cut
looso to return with hint to socuro
Chief McAndrew nnd other help.
THE MEN DISAPPEARED.
When the six men saw tho pusher
starting back they left the railroad,
took to the plnnk road and dlrappearcd
around the Franklin breaker.
The Ontario and Western trainmen
told of the same six men re-appcarlng
a few minutes Inter about four hun
dred feet up the track, hurrying north
ward. Here the chnso was transferred to
the Erie tracks. Ocorgo II. Dlmmlck,
engineer on "Slg." Robblns train, on
which the defendants reached Ararat,
testified that about 3.30 In the morn
ing his train stopped at Rracebrook, a
short distance nbove Forest City, to
do some switching nnd that when
Unlondale was reached, ho saw one of
tho brnkemen in the act of nailing the
door of a freight car on one side,
while a fbgman was attempting a Ilk?
thing on the other side. The brakemen
nucceeded, but before the flagman
could get the door closed ho was put
aside and six men, one after the other,
jumped out of the car and walked up
the track to tho milk houso on the oth
er side of the station.
The six men boarded tho train again
when It got a little beyond the milk
house and once more congregated In
the freight car which they had flrut
occupied.
Tho conductor had telegraphed
ahead to Ararat and whin tho train
stopped there. Bill Leach nnd Jesso
Vail were waiting it. The six men
scurried out of the car and starte-l
to retreat down tho track. When
Leach and his rllle appeared from
around tho engine tho gang began to
edge over towards the swamp skirt
ing the railroad. Leach called upon
them to halt.
FORMED A SEMI-CIRCLE.
They halted, but only to form In
a semi-circle and fire a volley from
their pistols at Leach, who was only
fifteen or twenty feet away. One
of tho gang, Barry, raised his revol
ver, took deliberate aim ut Leach and
fired. Tho witness shouted to Leach
"to look out." l.each evidently had
seen the leveled revolver for the warn
ing to "look out" the report of tho
pistol and tho crack of Leach's rifle
were slmultincous. Harry dropp3.l
with his smoking pistol In his hand
and a 3S-calibre rifle ball in his train.
Gaughan nnd Cummlngs had some
difficulty In getting across tho barbed
wire fence enclosing the swamp and
were brought to bay. Cummlngs stooi
uptight, rested his long revolver In tha
hollow of his bent, left nrm nnd aimed
point blank rt Leach. He fired but
It was the last time he ever used tho
hand that pulled tho trigger. A ball
from Leach's rifle shattered Ms arm
just below the elbow and today he
wears a half-empty coat sleeve.
Gaughan, the youngest of the crowd
was brought down' with a bullet
through the shoulder. He staggered
along for a few steps- and then sank
behind a clump of bushes. Leach
called upon him to throw up his hands.
He raised Ms hat as a token of sub
mission. Cummlngs helped Kelly to
his feet and linked him back to the
railroad track. "Come on now you
defiantly shouted Cum
mlngs as he brandlahed his revolver.
"If you want fight you can get
It." Leach raised his rifle again but
when the witness called to him not to

Tho two men who were first to get

hill lop on a run, The hIMIi tnun, tho
ono who Is still nt large, and who ap

ting the costs on the prosecutrix.
When Harry Goodrich, Joseph Feury,
Thomas Smith and John Wright were
arraigned for breaking Into Zerlch'a
dyeing establishment and taking awny

In the theft. The Jury returned a ver
dict of not guilty In the case of Smith
and Wright.
Frank Benjamin plead guilty to the
charge of defrauding a boarding house,
preferred by E. Russell, nnd Judge Ed
wards let him off with a fine of $1 and
costs.
In the case In which James Watson,
William II. Parker. David Parker and
William Owens were charged with as
sault and battery upon Thomas Har
ris, of Parker street, the jury returned
a verdict of not guilty, placing two
thirds of the costs on Walsh and David
Parker and one-third on the prose
cutor. George Henry, charged by Thomas
Bray with larceny and receiving, plead
guilty and was sent to the Hunting
ton reformatory. George Baker, his
