FARLEY MADE
HIS ESCAPE
HE AND FITZGERALD WERE
HARD PRESSED.
Story of Railway Company Men's
Wild Flight in a Car from an An
gry Mob Their Pursuit for Two
Miles Over Heather and Heath and
the Final Ignoble Overthrow of
the Party of Armed Men Who
Went After Them in a Wagon.
lifted Ive .ItiineS Knrle.V nlld John
KitKueralil, both of whom ate employed
by the Seinnton Itnllway company.
Iiiiil tin experience on Thursday nfler
nonn that seems, when told, lll' a
chapter rroni some hlKhly" colored ro
mance on yellowbaekeil novel.
Farley antl Kltswrald, who Is one
one of the "Import" inotoriueii. ami a
Iflant In strength, went down to Old
Korae on Thursday with a number of
other employes of the company l
clear the tracks In the borough, un
unsuccessful at tempt having been
made to do the same Ihlng about a
week ago. The car was surrounded on
the main street of Old Korge by u
crowd which kept gradually growing
larger nnd larger until li numbered
upwards of -lot).
One of Hie borough constables
threatened the Italian laborers, who
were brought along to clear the track,
with arrest If they dared to clear the
tracks and throw the obstructions on
the street. Superintendent I'al terson.
who was with the party, claimed that
his men had a right lo go on with the
clearing of the tracks because the
street was already obstructed. lie or
dered the laborers to go on with their
work and as soon as they did so they
were both arrested by the two borough
oflleers, who had tin- backing of the
crowd.
DKMAXDIOD A llKAltlNvl.
The street railway people demanded
that the men be given an immediate
hearing but the oflleers refused to al
low this. One of the Italians was tak
en into ti dark shed and wtts about to
he thrown into it dump, ill smelling
cellar reached by a trap dour when
Farley grabbed liini from the olllcer
and declared that as long as lie was
free he wouldn't allow any human be
ing to he put in such a place.
The otllcer accordingly took ills pris
oner before 'Squire Pickerel, around
whose olllce the crowd was gathered
and Farley and Fitzgerald boarded
the car !i little further down the street
for the purpose of defending It from
attack. As soon as the crowd of men
heard that Farley hud prevented the
otllcer from locking up ills prisoner
they started down the street for the
ear! picking up stones on the way and
yelling wildly.
Farley ordered Fitzgerald to put on
full power and the ear was started for
Duryea at top speed amid a perfect
shower of slicks and stones. About
r.Oft yards down the track was an ob
struction und as the car was stopped in
order to remove It. the crowd redoub
led Its speed and came down the rttreet
on the run.
Fitzgerald tugged furiously al the
stone on the track while Farley stood
on the rear plat form with drawn revol
ver awaiting the coining of the mob.
When the leaders were a few hundred
feet away he called upon them to stop
and they did so for just a moment but
long enough to allow Fitzgerald lo
clear the track and start the car on
aunlu.
WFNT DOWN II ILL.
This time they went down a hill at a
lively clip and through Duryea lo the
end of the line, gelling about a mile's
start on their pursuers. Tin- car was
abandoned here and the two men start
ed eastward over the llelds for the
Piltslou line at Moosie two miles away.
Farley believes that the miners who
were (pillting work at a mine in the
vicinity were warned of his escape by
telephone because lie and Fitzgerald
almost ran Into the arms of a party
of them who seemed to be on the look
out. When the two pursued men reached
ii slight eminence and looked to the
north they saw that about half the
crowd from Old Forge was after
them. On their south Han); were the
miners before mentioned and In front
of them was the Lackawanna river.
They determined to cross the river on
a railroad bridge which spans it nt
this point. As they were walking over
the bridge on the narrow passage-way
on the side n fust freight came bowling
ulong and the jarring nearly threw the
men into the river.
Once across they headed straight for
Moosiu and coining upon a ear, stand
ing near the Delaware and Hudson
station, they ordered the crew to turn
their trolley and start for I'ittslon
us fast as possible. In the meantime
several of the party from Old Forge
bound on capturing the two men had
crossed tho river farther up und came
down the road In a wagon. They had
drawn revolvers In their hands and for
a minute It looked as If there would
be a battle royal between tho occu
pants of the car and of the wagon.
THUV DIDN'T SHOOT.
Tho men In tho wagon didn't shoot,
however, but drove on in front of the
car and backed the wagon on to tho
track a few hundred feat ahead, calling
upon the motorman to stop and upon
Farley and Fitzgerald to surrender.
"We won't surrender for the best men
living after that chase," yelled Farley
and then to tho motorman, "sail Into
them."
The motorman turned on full power
and tho car, which was going down a
slight grade, taking on redoubled speed
at every turn of the wheel "sailed"
into tho wagon with great forco knock
ing tho gentlemen from Old Forge Into
tho road, smashing the vehicle Into
sundry small pieces and releasing tho
horse which ran clattering down tho
road ahead of the car.
When Farley and Fitzgerald reached
PUlslon they got off befotu they
reached Slain street and It was lucky
they did so for they found a few oill
cers and a good sized crowd waiting
for them. They sauntered down tho
street and yelled "scab" tit tho crew
whldi had just brought them to surety
with as much gusto as any one else,
They Inter took a train for this city.
Farley said yesterday that he would
have stood his ground and given him
self up In Old Forge had lie not been
fearful of the mob.

Any Diamond Is Diamond
SURE.
So any Coffee is Coffee, so any Flour is Flour.
But grades differ you want the best. If you un
derstood Diamonds as well as you do Coffee and
Flour it would be easy to determine. Hut you
don't. How should you? When you go to buy
something, the value of which you do not under
stand, you pick out the place where you can do
the best. Read our "ads." Watch the way we
do business. Call on us and examine our Dia
monds and you will always trade with us.
