Taken Into Custody Upon Statements
Made by the Young Woman and
Held In $600 Ball.
Tllllo Schultz, tho young woman of Col
orado whoso pitiablo plight was lefcrred to
in yesterday's Hkkai.0, nnd who caused tho
arrostof Henry H. Scltzlngor and wifoof
Ashland, but refused to discloso the namo of
the man In tho case, changed her mind yes
terday and gavo information upon which n
young man of Lost Creek No. 2 wns drawn
into tho affair. This party is Maurice Mor
riscy. Scitzingcr and his wlfo kept a notorious
den at Ashland, Tho Schultz girl had been
an Inmuto of tho houso for a week and
while in a stato of delirium last Wednesday
night escaped from it. Tlio Scltzingcrs wcro
subsequently arrested on a charge of abor
tion. I
Last night Tiilio Schultz went beforo Jus
tice Garner, of Ashland, nnd mndo allidavit
charging Maurice Morrisey with f. and b.
and attempted abortion. I he warrant was
placed in the hands of Constable August
Sob reiilcr, who sought tho asslstanco of l)o-
tectivo Amour, nnd they bought tho man at
a dance in Win. 1'cmi, but found he had left
there. It was reported that Mor
riscy anticipated that ho would ho
drawn into tlio case nnd would givothe police
somo trouble in locating and arresting him
From Wm. l'enn tho olllccrs went to Lost
Creek Xo. 2 aud wcro joined tliero by another
constable and Chief Ilurgobs James W ood-
wanl, of Ashland. Threo of tho olllccrs took
positions nt tho rear and sides of Jlorrissey's
iouso and Amour stood in front. Whllo
Woodward was trying to gain entranco at tlio
rear door Amour heard tho noisoof a window
being raised. It was so dark that tho noise
could not be easily located, but in n moment
or two Morrissey walked into tlio dctectivo's
anus. Morrissey carried Ills shoes in one
hand. Ho was fully dressed for a journey,
with tho exception of his shoes. On hearing
tho noiso at tlio rear of the houso ho stolo out
a window at tho front, having no idea tli.it
anyone was on guard there. He showed no
fight, however, as was expected and was
taken to Ashland without trouble. Justice
Garner committed liim without bail. Mor
rissey is about 23 years of ago and derived a
living principally by playing a violin at
dances.
Tho Scltzingers, contrary to all expecta
tions, havo secured bail. They were not
confined In jail, for tho reason that when
they reached 1'ottsvillo they found a friend
in J. II. Zcrbey, editor of tho Pottsvlllo
Daily liepubllcan, who furnished $1,000 bail
for them.
At noon to-day Morrissey, in company with
an Asmantt constable, went to Justice
Shoemaker's olllco, in this town, and entered
$000 bail for trial, Lewis Klein furnishing
tho security.
