Theodore Fleischutt, better known
to his associates as Charley Fleis-

whom were arraigned yesterday in
police court on charges of fighting
and disorderly conduct.
The stories told by the two men

which ended in their arrest.

Fleischutt claims that early Satur
day evening he purchased a half
pint of whiskey which he took to
his boarding house and which was
later stolen, The missing whisky,

Keener evidently caught sight of

Keener tells another story of the
affair, He says that Fleischytt
came to the Cole house drunk,
He found his wife there and wanted
to kiss her, but that lady didn't
appear to desire the caresses of her
husband just at that time and a
disturbance followed. A keg of
beer which had been brought to
the house in the carly part of the
evening assisted in furpishing the
courage for a jangle which lasted
until nearly midnight when Fleis-
chutt was thrown out of the house.
He went up the street a short dis—
tance and in the meantime several
inmates of the household came
into the street, among them being
Keener. A tirade of indecent and
profane language followed, and in
the meantime the residents of the
neighborhood arose from their
beds to see who was being mur-

Flieschutt was taken to the lock-

from the officer's club, just as a
reminder that the officer wouldn't
stand any foolishness. Warrants
for the arrest of both men, charging
them with disorderly conduct and
breach of the peace, were issued,
and upon being arraigned they
pleaded guilty. Fleischutt was

Two Horses and Four Cows
Consumed in a Conflagration
Early Yesterday Morning
Yesterday moming between §
and 6 o'clock fire broke out in a
barn situated along the Aubura
branch of the Lehigh on the Mills
town road just outside the borough
limits. Two horses, valued at
$100 cach, four cows, 30 tons of
hay, 300 bushels oats, 100 bushels
of corn, three farm wagons, and a
quantity of farm implements were
consumed. The barn was owned
by Charles Lloyd, the well known
mail agent, who runs on the Le-
high between this place and New
York. J. S. and H. T. Werts,
brothers, occupied the farm as
tenants and the contents of the
barn was owned by them. There
was no insurance and the loss is
estimated at nearly £3,000.
About 5 o'clock the borough
fire alarm sounded, but when it
was ascertained where the conflas
gration was located the companies
did not respond as the apparatus
would have been uscless on ac-
count of being unable to secure
water. The fire department from
the Lehigh Valley power house,
however, run an engine to the
scene of the fire but when the fire-
men arrived they could do but
little, Before the flanies were dis-
covered they had made such head-
way that it was impossible to re-
lease the animals, and the dumb
brutes perished in their stalls.
A few minutes after the fire
broke out several strangers, evi.
dently tramps, were seen to leave
the burning building, and walk
rapidly up the Auburn branch.
[tis thought that these men may
have been smoking in the building
and that they carelessly dropped a
lighted match.
