AT COURT YESTERDAY
A NUMBER OF OASES DIS
POSED OF.
DANIEL BRADLEY DIDN'T WAIT
While tho Jury Was Out ho Loft
to Tako, a Short Walk and
Has Not Bom Seen Sinco.
Othor Gases.
ltMINAL Court com-
venod at Pottsvllle
yesterday and disposed j
of several cases In
which town peoplo
wero Interested. Tho
results wero surprising
and oxpcnslvo to many j
of tho parties concern
ed and tho exchequer i
of tho county was con
siderably swelled. Daniel Uradloy was one
of the first to ho placed on trial. Ho had
throe charges against him, two for Inrcenyi
and ono for carrying concealed deadly!
weapons.
Bradley was tried on tho threo counts and
the jury rendered a verdict of guilty after a
short deliberation. Bradloy was under bail
pending trial. While the jury was out ho
told ono of his friends he wanted to go out
side and see a man. Ho went and failed to
put in an appearanco when called up for
sentence on tho verdict.
Loungers about tho court houso 6ay they
saw Bradley run down tho stops and down
one of the Pottsvllle streets a9 fast as his legs
could carry him. All efforts to trace him
failed.
Inquiry at Bradley's haunts in this town
last night and this morning faifed to lead to
any clue to his whereabouts. A man well
acquainted with hirn, said, "Din will not go
far, hut if he does It will he better for him
self and the town."
It was stated that Bradloy was seen at the
Lehigh depot in town at about 1 o'clock yes
terday. People who wero in attendance at
court say that this is a mlstako as It was
about 4 o'clock when Bradley left tho court
room.
Another case of local interest disposed of
yesterday was ono in which John J. Lorah,
tho teamster, prosocuted a Polish woman
named Annie Kropowski. Lorah said
Annie kept a common and ill-governed house.
Tho woman succeeded in convincing tho jury
to the contrary and Mr. Lorah was obliged to
pay costs amounting to over $50.
Some weeks ago, at about four o'clock in
tho morning, a Hungarian young man named
Goorgo Konipovich, throw a piece of rock
through a large pane of glass in tho show
window of L. Goldin's clothing storo on
South Main street. Iu tho afternoon of the
same day Policemen Davis and Tempest
arrested the young man, who at first denied
tho act, but subsequently pleaded guilty and
said he had no reason for committing it.
Kompovich was found guilty, fined five
dollars and sentenced to imprisonment for
thirty days.
William P. Sweeny aud William Chuhki, a
Hungarian, were also among the Sheuati
doahites who aired their grievances heforo tho
court yesterday. Sweeny is a driver of a
mi k wagon. While driving along tho 6trcel
on which Chulskl resides other vehicles
forced him to drive over tho pavement in
front of Chulski'8 houso. This angered the
latter and tho two men became engaged in a
scrimmage, in which Sweeny claimed he was
choked. The latter instituted suit for assault
and battery. The jury rendered a verdict of
not guilty and directed that each man pay
half tho costs, which amounted to over $100.
Reckless runtime.
Several small boys were amusing them
solves on the Lehigh Vnlley railroad near the
foot of White street yesterday afternoon
toying with a small 22-calibre revolver and
placing the cartridges on tho rails to have the
car wheels pass over them. A more dan
gerous combination for pastime could hardly
bo coucoivod. The play ground was dan
gerous enough without being augmented by
the source of "didn't-know-it-was-loaded"
accidents.
The Wires Crossed,
At 11 o'clock last night the fire alarm bell
was tapped onco and a few minutes later it
was tapped twice. It was at first thought an
alarm had been sounded and tho system was
out of order, but investigation showed that a
wire of the merchants' electric light system
had crossed the alarm wire. The dynamo
which furnishes power for the merchants'
system was stopped, as the operator, Goorge
Saegor, feared the wire would be burned, and
all the lights on that system were extin
guished. The broken wire was repaired
early this morning.

DETAILS OF A SATURDAY GRIME.
Canfleld Tolls How Ho
Soourod
$138 Belonging to a Friend, and
Implicated Another PArt of
tho Money Recovered.
"
AJpawiwjIIEltn is confined in tho
..111 lockup a young man
.-;j8i named James Canficld, 1
charged with robbing a juulllaut over Cleveland as they were im
friend named George j modlately after the election. Therois a luke
Flook, of Glover's Hill, warmness, as It wore; an ominous silence?
Flook Buys Canficld
lonmod ho had money
snvod by reason of bo
ing a frequent visitor to tho former's homo.
Tho story of tho robbery is told by Canllold
himself.
Canficld told 'Squlro Williams to day that
ho and auothor yuuug man named Michael
McAvoy had contemplated tho robbery for
somo timo. Last Saturday night tho two met
in tho holler house at Kohinoor colliery and
had a talk over the matter. It was agreed
that Caufiold should do tho Job. At about 8
o'clock that night Canfleld went to tho
Flock house. The family was not at home.
Ho gained admission to tho house by forcing
a window open aud wont up to George
Flock's room. By breaking open a trunk
and a tin box inside of it ('-infield secured
$13S in cash and left tho liouiu unobscrvod.
Canficld said ho took tho money to tho
Kohinoor boiler houso, where ho and Mc
Avoy counted it, but after that ho could ro-
mcmber nothing and did not know what had
becomo of tho money. But notwithstanding
tho latter statomeut, Canfleld this morning
showed where part of the monoy was hidden.
Outsido Foreman Laudernian and others
went to u shanty on ono of tho Kohfuoor
dirt hanks this morning and found Canfleld.
After some talk about tho robbery Canficld
confosscd everything and pulled $00 from be
hind a piece of sheet iron that was tackod up
in the shanty. Canficld was then arrested by
Constable D.indo.
Iho young man says ho does not know
what became of tho balance of the money,
but ho may bo induced to miko a clean
broast of everything at "the hearing which
will tako place to-night. McAvoy, whom
Canfleld claims as an accomplice, has not
been arrested.
FIr 111 the Fifth.
At about half past uiue o'clock this morn
ing an alarm of firo was sounded from box 52
in tho Fifth ward. Tho fire companies
located tho cause in a house on West Coal
street occupied by a family named McGuiro,
but their services wero uot required, as a
bucket brigade had cut ofl" all daugor. Some
ono was pouring oil into a lighted mining
lamp in the basement of the house and an
explosion was caused. Tho one who was
filling tho lamp escaped injury and but little
damage was done by the firo.
A ltobbery,
A small candy shop on North Bowers
street, owned by a man named Davis was
robbed Tuosday night, but the robbers did
uot tako much. They cut a pane of glass
from n window frame and contented them
selves with removing somo candy within
roach on tbo shelves and without entering
tho place.
That old established cough remedy, Downs
Elixir, still moro than holds its own In the
public estimation, despite sharp and active
competition. It is a "home remedy," and in
this locality needs no word of prniso from us,
so well and favorably known is it. It is the
standard remedy for coughs, colds and all
throat troubles, with great numbers of our
people, and their continued use and un'
solicitod recommendation of it speaks vol
nmes in its favor. KurKnofon, Vt, Free

OBB'S OBSERVATIONS.
What Ho Sees Hint Hour
Trnvols.
During HI
Since Saturday liwOlia borough lint' httm
almost as qulotias Rgrn'veyard.R;Tho only
activity noticeable is with Jtlio trains. B Hr
and there ono can see a man or a boy witk
pick or shovel in hand, trying to open a gnt
ter or dear a naveinent of remnanU of tin
last fall of snow, hut they, too. work with
spirit that Is born of a spell of inactivity nn
had no life to the scene. It vms ox peeled
that the Democrat who attended the in
' auguratlnn at Washington would come hom
1 and try to get up a little supplemental dmo-
strattou lo mako things n littlo lively, but tb
prodigals aro not jubilant enough for Hint
'1(1 hopo in that direction is nlso gone.
Ry tho way, tho Democrats aro not near as
""d I m led to hellove that somo of our
Democratic frieuds aro really withdrawing
some of tholr admiration from tho now Presi
dent. Others liavo observed this and I have
heard somo sivy that tho Democrats fear when
the proper tlmo comes President Cleveland,
will not step up to tho scratch and ''turn tho
rascals out." However this may he, Cleve
land's namo is not montioned near as fre
quently as it was somo weeks ago.
In somo maimer a discussion of President
Cleveland's religious faith has crept into the
nowspaper columns. A stntomont that the
President and nil tho members of his cnbiuet
nro Presbytorlans has caused a smile, bat
there is moro truth than fiction in it. Son
acknowledge it is so, with the oxception of
Secretary Carlisle With regard to that gen
tleman, many of his frionds say ho is an ad
herent of no denomination, but inclines to
Prosbyterianism. It is also a fact that Mr.
Cnrlisio's sou is a Frodjyterian minister.
President Harrison's religious faith,and that
of members of his cabinet, was not discussed,
vet he was a Presbyterian, too. Aud odd a
it may 6eem, coming nearer home, our
present postmaster is in tho Profbyteriasi.
church.
It wouldn't surprise me to seo tho congre
gation of tho church at the northwest corner
of White and Oak streets swell to immense
proportions before the timo to consider ap
plications for the postmastorship arrive. The
Presbyterians scorn to bo "in it."
The official figures inform us that but two"
Americans wero naturalized in England last
year. Some , peoplo aro unkind enough to
insinuate that this partly accounts for the
rec ut Democratic victory in this town.
Tho movement to havo tho old blue laws of
1791, still on tho stntate books of this fits'a,
so modified as to allow newspapers to bo sold
on Sunday is commendable. But I think our
lawmakers should so modify the law that
discrimination should bo mado betweon tho
good and tho bad. There is no denying "h'e
fact that there aro sheets published, under
tho guiso of iWinj-papors, which should come
under tho ban of tho present law. They are
degrading in their influences, and are unfit to
enter the sanctity of the Amorican home.
