Efforts to Sustain Attachments In the
Tabor Cases.
SZYDLOWSKI UNDER HEAVY FIRE
The Examination Directed to Bhow That
Neither the VC It less Nor Ills Wife
Had Money With Which to Buy
Tabor's Business Szydlow
skl Shows Wealth.
j
Thero is an air bf determination on tbo
part of tho counsel' for tbo creditors in- tbo
cases against Justyha Szydlowskl and A. P.
Tabor that foreshadows a prolonged contest
In tho courts. Ono gentleman Interested
has stated tbat thejoase will bo mado a test
one and noltbor time or expense will be
Spared. Connsol f$r Mrs. Szydlowskl and
Mr. Tabor declare ibat tbo proceedings can
never accomplish anything and tho docpor
tbo creditors delvo.tho stronger will become
tho evldonco that Mr. Tabor's business was a
wreck beforo ho sold out to Mrs. Szydlowskl.
Yesterday Mr. Wbalcn continued dissect
ing the accounts of tho thrco shops for differ
ent months with ?i -view to show that Mr.
Tabor's receipts were greater In proportion
to his outstanding accounts than tbo latter
testified to at tho last session. A recapitula
tion of the figures Adduced showed that tbo
salos at tho three shops for August amounted
to $7,431. During that month Tabor drew
5,717.32 from the bunk. Tabor said ho sun-
posed ho paid that money out. On August
Itb ho deposited $1,325.27, receipts from tho
Mincrsville shop. That money was subse
quently paid out. Tho amount represented
deposits from tho 5th to tho 24th of August.
Mr. Tabor was then asked to enumcrato tbo
checks that wero outstanding nnd for pay-
montot which no borrowed tlio f 1,000 from
Mrs. Szydlowskl on August Oth. Ho answered
by enumerating checks ho bad given to
Swift A Co., Armour & Co., Ki tin's Sons nnd
Moluskoy & Sons, aggregating nbout $1,400.
Anthony Szydlowskl, tbo husband of Mrs.
Justyna Szydlowskl, to whom Tabor sold his
stores, was noxt called nnd examined ny Mr.
Whalon. llo testillotl that ho camo to Shen
andoah 21 years ago, from Hazlcton, where
be was in partnership in tho butcher buslnoss.
Was In tho buslnoss four months, when his
partner bought him out for $1,000. Beforo
that bo was in tho butcher business for him
self in Baltimore. Was tboro a year and a
half. His wife started tbo business in Shen
andoah, because ho had an agreement -that
ho should not go into business in Pennsyl
vania lor ten years. That agreement was
mado whon Frank Kosloskl, bis Hazlcton
partner, bought him out. His Shenandoah
purchasos.of meat run from $1,500 to $3,500 a
month. His wifo keeps nc books. Ho keens
all tbo buslnoss in bis head. His wifo keens
tbo bank account. All tbo business is. cash.
No credit business.
Mr. Whalon then took up tbo Szydlowskl
bank book and' conducted an examination
that Indicated efforts to show that tbo monoy
Mrs. Szydlowskl bad used to buy out Tabor
had been given to her. or her husband, hv
Tabor for tbo purpose. If such was tbo aim
It failed with this witness. Ho declared that
the monoy paid Tabor was his wlfo's. Wit
ness has closed up tho Mlnersvlllo storo since
the ealo was mado to his wifo. Mr. Tabor
has nothing to do with tho Shenandoah storo,
or any other part or tho business now. Tho
Mahanoy City storo has also been closed.
Mrs. Tabor has nothing to do with tho Shen
andoah store. For tho month after tbo sale
tbo witness said tbo meats ho bought and his
help and other expenses for tbo thrco stores
amounted to $2,203.12, and bis receipts wore
?2,107.60, making a deficiency of $100.32.
Witness said his wifo had mora than $3,000
when sbo camo to Shenandoah from Hazlc
ton. It was all put into tbo business she
started hero and she mado money. She had
more than $3,000 when she loaned Tabor
money.
Tbo case was taken up again In tbo ofllco
of M. M. Burko, Esq., this morning and Mr.
Szydlowskl resumed his scat on tbo witnoss
stand. Tho examination opened with ques
tions directed to tho career of tho witness In
Baltimore. When Mr. Banisay asked the
witness if ho had any money when bo came
to this country six years ago and if ho had
any when ne located at Baltimore the re
plies were tbat ho could not understand
English. A lengthy discussion followed,
during which Mr. Burko suggested tbat an
Interpreter bo taken into tho case, but tbo
counsel for tho creditors objected to that and
declared that tbo witness had got along on
tbo stand with English at Pottsvllle and at
tho session yesterday afternoon. They
claimod that it was not because he did not
understand, but that ho did not want to
answer. Finally tho witness answored in
English that ho had no monoy when ho camo
to this country and when ho went to Haiti
more. Ho stayed in Baltimore between 21 and
3 yeais, doing a wholesale and retail moat bus
iness and manufacturing sausago. He moved
from Baitimora to Hazlcton and had $2,000
which he had made from profits at tho for
mer place. His wifo had $2,400 when he
camo to Shenandoah; ho bonght out Hoohler's
slaughter house for $487 and about $300 in
machlnory. The first year ho mado $2,000.
All this lino of examination was continued
by counsel for tbo creditors to bIiow that the
Bzydlowskls did not have money enough to
giro Tabor $2,800. Szydlowskl was asked to
produce his books for the first year of his
business, but said ho coula not do so, as ho
could not find them, Tho second year In
business hero tbo witness said ho mado ovor
$8,000. Considerable amusemont was created
when tbo witness testified that he not only
had plenty of money to loan, but had several
times made loans to Mr. Caufiold, the local
manager for Swift & Co., when tbo latter
would bo short in his collections, and these
loans would amount to $800, $800, and as high
as $600. "You peoplo ought to know now tbat
ho had money," remarked Mr. liurko.
During another part of tho examination
while looking for a judgment noto upon
which ho was being oxamlnod, tbo witness
dragged from his pocket a wad of hank
notes almost tho slzo of a boxing glove
"Do you bollevo ho has any monoy?" asked
Mr. Burko, To this Mr. Adams, ono of tho
counsel for tho creditors, rejoined
"Wo claim that Is port of our monoy,
This afternoon Mr. Szydlowskl was again
put on the witness stand and among tho first
questions put to htm was whotlier he had not
stated to a Hazlcton man that during his first
year in business hero ho had not mado
dollar over expenses. Ho donled having
mado such a statement to anyone. As the ex
amlustlon proceeded witness ad in I ted that
during his first year in business ho gave
judgment note for over $400 and on one oc
casion during last year ne borrowed 1150,
Both these lndebtnesses, ho admitted, were
incurred notwithstanding that he had $800
to tl.200 at homo of bis own money.

in tho II rm of liolinski & Co,, from Russia,
to tbo effect that Joseph Jcrocovls, who left

turn to his native homo in Russia, bos been
exiled to Siberia. Jcrocovls, when ho left
this placo, had in his possession between $15,
000 and $20,000. It appears that when he

agency, and in somo manner violated tbo
laws of that country In the circulation of
seditious literature. He was arrested and
taken beforo tho imperial pollco tribunal and
sentenced to ten years hard labor in the

To be Held In New York In Honor of
Miss Clsneros.
HOW SHE ESCAPED FROM HAVANA.
Her Friends Filed the Detectives With
Wine and She Boarded the Steamer
Seneca In Male Attire Perhaps
Weyler Permitted Her
Escape.
New York, Oot. 14. The Cuban junta
has Issued an Invitation to the people
of greater New York and vicinity In
terested in Senorlta Coslo y Cisnaros
and the cause of Cuba to attend a re
ception te be tendered to the rescued
young woman at Delmonlco's, on Fifth
avenue, Saturday night. The reception
will really be a demonstration of sym
pathy with the struggling republic, and
speakers of national reputation will
address the gathering-.
Miss Clsneros Is stopping- at the Hotel
Waldorf. She does not speak English,
but her face is very expressive, and she
seemed to Intuitively understand the
questions put to her and answered In
Spanish. Among the party is Mrs. J.
Ellen Foster, of Washington, president
of the National Woman's Republican
association.
Miss Clsneros' escape and safe arrival
on the Seneca was one of the most
daring feats ever attempted and suc
cessfully carried out.
While she was still in prison her
friends secured a passport for ono Juan
Sola, and state room No. 3 on the Sen
eca was held In the samo name. This
was three days before the boat sailed.
When the Seneca was to leave Havana
detectives watched her gangways with
extra caution. All day long they re
mained at their post, examining the
passports which all passengers hnve
to show before leaving Havana. Their
vigilance would probably have pre
vented the departure of Miss Clsneros
from Cuba had It not been for a little
refreshment which was served on thorn
by friends of Miss Clsneros, who were
aboard the Seneca. The refreshment
Included wine. The chief of police of
Havana came aboard while the re
freshment part of the plot was In
progress, and It Is alleged that he, toQ,
fell a victim to the wiles of the Cls
neros faction.
A few minutes before the Scnoca was
ready to pull out from her dock a slim
young fellow came running across the
wharf. Ho had no baggage, and was
fashionably dressed. He walked quick
ly up the gangplank. Tho detectives
stopped him. "My name Is Juan Sola,"
he said, and ho showed his passport.
Everything was satisfactory, bo the
senor was allowed to go aboard. It Is
said that If It had not been for tho
wine tho strange treble and rather
curious figure of Senor Sola might have
excited the suspicions of the Spanish
detectives.
Miss Clsneros did not court danger
any more than was necessary, and at
once went to her cabin. The next day,
however, when Morro Castle was left
far bohlnd, she appeared on deck,
transformed Into- Senorlta Juana Sola,
alias Coslo y Clsneros, and dressed In
a becoming red gown.

WILKINSON'S
STORE NEWS.
We haven't time to write
a fair description of the great
stocks of the latest styles
just purchased last week in
New York suffice it to say
we ha'e a larger, better and
cheaper stock than any of
our competitors.
Why?
Shenandoah's big store can't
afford to follow anyone's
lead we are always best ad
vertised by our imitators
and we confidently believe
no such stocks exist as are
shown in our immense show
room. Doing the largest
business in our line, it is
reasonable to suppose we can
purchase large stocks at spec
ial prices. The crowds of
pleased buyers from all parts
of the county daily attest tlfe
truth of our always reliable
advertisements.
