Blond Fiona mid' a Man Is Beaten Far In

ou liis head iimdo by an unknown Implement
and a knife wound about tbrco Inches in
length in his left forearm Stluey Shedlick
appeared before Justice Toomey at about
eleven o'clock last night and asked for a
warrant for the Brrcst of Matt Trutchlok.
Sliedlock was followed into the joflUe
by Mrs. Mary ISunott, who asked
that a warrant bo issued for her husband,
Anthony. Tlio women looked as if she had
lieen drawn through a flooded sewer. Her
clothing was covered witli mud and tilth.
Upon her recital it wis learned that her case
was a chapter of Shedlock's troubles. It ap
pears that Bunott and his wife have been
separated for somfi time The cause is not
given. Tlio husband has kept the house
going. Last night tlio wife strolled to the
homestead to see how things wort) progress
ing. Her husband caught sight of her as
sho passed tho door and sprang at her like a
tiger. Seizing her by tho hair he dragged
the woman up and down tbo streets through
tho mud, occasionally administering a blow
and a kick. A crowd of neighbors witnessed
the affair. They are in sympathy with the
husband and did not attempt to restrain
him, but offered encouragement. Stlnoy
Shadlock happened along and when ho saw
tho treatment tho woman was receiving he
was impelled to interfere, lie forced the
husband to desist. Matt. Trutchick, a
spectator, then attacked Shedlick with tho
result already stated. Trutchick was put
under f 500 bail. Bunott was held In $300.

A Charge of False Pretence Is Made Against
Him by Mrs. Gallagher, of Rappa-bannock-Nobody
Will Furnish
Ball For the Former Prom
inent Grocer.
It will no doubt be surprising to many of
the IltntALD readers to learn that William
II. Musser, at one time a prosperous grocer
of this town, is under arrest, lie arrived
in town from Philadelphia last night luthe
custody of Constable Matt. Giblon, of Justice
Toomoy's court. The arrest was mado ou a
warrant prepared by M. M. Burke, Esq.,
substantially as follows, on oath of Mrs.
Mary Gallaghor, of Itappahannock : That
one W. II. Musser, on the 27th day of April,
1800, obtained from Androw Gallagher, hus
band of deponent, $150 upon tho representa
tion that he (Musser) was then tho owner of
real estate at Pottsvillo, Pa.; that tbo said
loan was to bo applied to tho payment of tho
proporty. Upon this representation of the
ownership of said property tho loan was
made. Deponent further avers that tho said
statement and representation by tlio
said Mussoras to tho ownership of tho prop
erty was false aud was made for tho purposo
of obtaining the said money aud defrauding
tho said Audrew Gallagher, husband of this
deponent, of said sum, as tho said Musser
was not the owner then of auy realty iu the
borough of Pottsvillo to the best of do
ponout's knowledge aud bollef."
Constablo Giblon spent too days in Phila
delphia trying to locato Musser aud finally
round nlm at Camden, N. J whore ho was
working as a salesman iu a largo department
store. The arrest was made by a shrewd
piece of work on Glblou's part. Ai Musser
was in New Jersey ho was ou Undo tho Juris
diction of tho process the ofllcer
had in hand and Giblon doubtod
that extradition proceedings could bo
maintained on a charge of false nretenoe.
Tho only courso left open was to get Musser
into Pennsylvania, and It had to bo dono in
such a way that Musser's visit to the state
should bo voluntary. Giblon entered tho
store at Camden and purchased somo under
wear. Musser waited on him. Giblon told
the salesman that ho had a warrant for
bis arrest. Musser almost fainted when
ho heard this, but quickly rocdvrcd
his self-possession and told tlio officer
bluntly that his Pennsylvania warrant was
no good in New Jersey. Giblon said ho
knew that, but extradition proceedings
might mako it good. Giblon further stated,
however, that ho had matters nicely ar
ranged, so that Musser could givo bail with
out comlug to Shenandoah, and thus save
much inconvenience. He told Musser that
John A. Itellly, of Shenandoah, was in Phila
delphia, prepared tq go security for
Musser's appearance at the Pottsvillo court
in September. Musser swallowed tbo lialt,
whou tho dlnnor hour arrived started across
the rivor for Philadelphia. Tbo proprietor
and employes of the Camden storo aro prob
ably still awaiting his return from diuner
and mystified ovor his non-appearance. As
soon as Musser landed in Philadelphia Con
stable Giblon placod. him under arrest aud
brought him to town. Musser waived a hear
ing before Justico Toomey last night and
tiieu proceeded to make a tour of the
town in search of bail, but nono of tho many
merchants and others ho callod upon would
help him and ho was comraittod to tho
lockup. He is still there hoping that some
one will furnish ball and save him from
imprisonment in tho Pottsvillo jail until the
trial of the case jti September, or until a
settlement can bo effected. If somebody
doos not go to his relief by to-morrow morn
ing lie will go to jail.
Musser says he is indebted to Gallagher
for but $33, as ho paid $113 on account of the
loan in cash and goods from his storo. The
accused was formerly hold in high esteem in
tins town aud vicinity, but during tho later
days of his business career hero his friends
foil away fast. For five yoars ho was
manager of tho Wm. Fenn store
and thon came to town and opened
grocery ill partnership with lionjamin
Beddall, under the firm name of Musser
& Beddall, About eighteen months ago
Musser bought out Beddall for $800. Sub e-
nuently, it is alleged, Musser got cash loans
aggregating $300 from Beddall and it is ou
1110 wiui casn loaus irom Daniel Kiioliy and
Mrs. McDonald, widow of tho section watch
man who was killed on tho Lohigb
Valley railroad several mouths ago, the
loans amounting to $100 and $50, respectively.
They were left with along string of unpaid
accounts when Musser was closed by the
Sheriff last spring. Musser says all his
troubles are due to his inability to make
collections ou his storo accounts, Ho is an
unmarried man. After the Sheriffs salo
Musser wont to Philadelphia and soon after
secured the position at Camdeu.
The accused man takes his position with
great comp.acency and frequently becomos
humorous when discussing it. Somo of his
old acquaintances are inclined to believe that
bis mind is slightly affected, but thero is
very little sympathy ror him. somo wero
Inclined to take compassion upon him, but
most of thee turned the other way when
more was learned of Musser s numerous
unliquidated loans. Before becoming man
ager of the Win. Penn store Musser was em
ployed as a salesman by Htrawbridge &
Clothier.

THE STRIKERS MOST ORDERLY I
They Still Claim That the Outlook Is Most
Encouraging for 'lhelr Oause. Rain In
terferes With the Proposed Marches
on the Working Miners.
Pittsburg. Aug. 11. A crlglt Is fast
approaching in the miners' movement
against the New York and Cleveland
Gas Coal company. The next few flays
should determine whether or not the
strikers' object will be reallised. The
strikers still maintain excellent order,
and claim that the outlook Is most en
couraging for them.
While yesterday's work Is not viewed
In a disappointing light by the camp
ers at Turtle Creek, Sanday Creek and
Plum Creek, yet yesterday's happen
ings were not of tha most encouraging
sort. They had to contend with their
first spell of bad wather. A heavy
rain drenched the camps and prevent
ed the marchers from carrying out
their regular program. At Plum Creek
the rain and continued absence of n
band kept the men In their quarters,
with the result that little, if any, mis
sionary work was undertaken.
The storm also had the effect of pre
venting the march to the Spring Hill
mines, between Wllmerdlng and Wall
Station, which are owned by Alexander
Dempster. The only march of the day
was made by the 150 men at Camp
Determination, who left camp shortly
after 5 o'clock, and marching close ta
the Oak Hill tipples spent two hours
In the vicinity of the miners' homes.
There was not even ordinary excite
ment attached to the Invasion along
Thompson's Run. A summary of the
day's development finds conditions
much the same as they were on Mon
day, save that the company claims
to have made a further break In the
strikers' ranks at Turtle Creek and
Sandy Creek. The Plum Creek mine
was running considerable coal yester
day, and tho number of men reported
at work equals that of Tuesday.
The failure to hold a meeting- at
Camp Isolation was another disappoint
ing feature of the day, and the men are
loudly clamoring for the presenco ol
the officials. The batch of Italians that
struck camp on Monday are expected
to do much good among their fellow
countrymen at work In tho Plum Creek
mine, but active .labors were withheld
until today, when It will be positively
Known wnetlier or not the men pro
pose remaining away from the pits.
Yesterday afternoon District Presi
dent Pat Doinn accused the operators
of the Pittsburg district with having
broken faith with tho striking miners
In this district. He also outlined the
policy to be pursued by the United
Mine Workers In their fight In the cert-
tral Pennsylvania district, where It If
proposed to close down all the mines,
He cannot predict when the Btrike- will
be settled, hut claims his organization
can stand the strike until the last of
September. The operators, be said
had promised to pay the price when the
supply at DeArmltt's mines had been
cut off. This has been done, but the
operators had failed to keep their pait
ot tne contract.
The miners who have been working
regularly at the Oak Hilt mines weie
paid yesterday afternoon. Those who
Joined the strikers did not get their
cash, the company holding It, as under
the contract the men forfeited their
wages by striking. There was no ex
citement. Between 300 and 400 em
ployes were on hand, but few of them
received any money. Mr. DeArmltt
made a speech to the men, tellng them
he sympathized with them and that the
money was withheld not because tho
company wanted It, but because It had
to carry out tho terms of the contract.
He denounced the midnight marching
and the encampment, and said It was n
uiot upon tne history or the country
that the laws are not enforced and such
movements stopped.

Philadelphia, Aug. 11. The Univer

services as arbitrator in the coal strike.
A letter signed by President Love and
a committee of the union wan aont tti
representatives of the operators and
miners, which says In part: ''Capital
and labor cannot afford to be estrang
ed. Violence under any circumstances
Is Injurious. Individual rights must
be respected. Reason and affection are
competent to adjust any difficulties.
Calmness, patience, petition, appeal,
protest and prayer will triumph. As
tp compensation, we admit we are not
ttile to name a price, hut we have
faith that this can be satisfactorily
adjusted, and is an Individual concern,
according to merit and ability."

Oatholio church from attending the Irish
American picnic to lie held iu the latter eity
next Suuday. liishop Pink gave as bis
reasons for plnclng a ln nu the picnic that
Sunday Is a holy day, on which all Catholics
are obliged to do their duty toward the
church and (iod. and that a public picnic is
not a fit olwervance of the day. He said also
that holding a pu'iilr on the Snbliath is in
direct violation of tho laws of tlio Catholic
