Ho Bolonged to a Company of Reg ulars Sont to Pennsylvania Tho FlBhlag Crook Confederacy RofdBod to go to the War. P1TT8T0N, Pa., Sept. 10. Ellas Yonog of this county is on trial at Wllkosbarro, charged with the murder of Lieut Stew art Robinson, which accurrod twenty seven yenra ago. The circumstancos attending the kill ing are as follows: Tho "Fishing Creek Confederacy, ns It was Milled, was com' posed of persons, who opposed the projo cutlon of the war, and when In 16C4 a draft was ordered it met with opposition ia that section. Tho draft was openly Ignored, and the efforts of the United States officers to enforce It wera eot at defiance. Armed bodies of men ranged themsolven against tho authorities and swore to dlo in their trucku rather than ao to tho front. Areglmont of regulars was sont to that locality with orders to oompoltne dratted men to join the army. Lieutenant Rob inson came with the regiment and It was whllo obeying ordora that ho met his death. Shortly after tho shooting, which oc curred on the night of July ill, 1804, Young went West, whero ho remained until a short time ago. As soon ns bis return beenmo known, Sheriff Robinson. brother of the young Lieutenant, pro ceeded to collect evidence that might lead to his conviction. Young and two others were arrested, but tho lattor were released for want of Bufllclent evidence. Subsequently, upon tho dying oonfossion of a man who was a witness of the killing, County Detective Phillips obtained sufficient evidence to warrant bliu in taking Young iuto cus tody. Tho most important ovldenco ad duced at the trial now (in progress was given by Dr. John F. Chapln, of Michi gan, who camo East to testify, bo being the phy-iclanj who attended Robinson when shot, and Charles Dobson, who was also with Robinson when tbo shoot ing took placo. It was to the effect that Young hni said tho day after the shooting that ho had used Smith's gun on tho previous night. The defense endeavored to provo on cross examination that Smith's uncles wore also charged with killing Robinson and that the prosecution was a solicmo to shift tho responsibility upon Young's shouldors. Tho witnesses, howevor, stuck to their storlos, their evidenco be ing unshaken. DARING KSCAI'I A Criminal VlcltH the Lock of Tils Hand cuffs With H Toothpick. PrtlLADELriHA, Sep. 19.

Ho then mado an unexpected break for tho door of tho passenger coach which tho sheriff, deputies and prisoners occu pied, and leaped from the rapidly mov ing train before a hand was raised to prevent blm.

Sliorlff Mlcbaol rcceivod his first intimation of tho escape when he looked out of a window and saw tbo form of a man fly ing through the air and then roll over and over down tho embankment, It looked like prisonor Person, and hastily looking around tho shcriil soon saw that that worthy was missing. Somo of tho deputies endeavored to in tercept tho daring man bofore ho had reached the platform, but wore badly handlcappod In their efforts on account of being fettered to their prisoners.
