THE SCRANTOH TRIAL.
Some Damaging Kvldeiica Kxcrtel From
Schuylkill Count Witnesses.
Much interest I manifested licro over the.
trial, at Scranton, of four tnen for burglary,
three-of whom are resident! of Shenandoah
They are William Zollner, Jamea Qaughsu
and Patrick D.ilton. Tho fourth man Is Joli
Ciimmluga, alias "Western Rod," who i9 well
known hero, having operated in connection
with tho local gangs of thieves. The case
being tried before Judge Edwards. The
chargo is that the accutcd. with two others,
broke into tbo power bouso of thoCarbondutc
Traction Company, nt Mayflold, in March
last. One of the men escaped and the fSlh
was fatally shot a.t Ararat Summit the follow
lug day when resisting arrest.
Tho case is being prosecuted by District
Altorucy Jones and Messrs. O'Brien fe Kelly
are defending the prisoners. In his opening
to too jury the prosecuting attorney atticd
thatou Sunday night, March 2flth, a band of
six professional burglars arrived in Mayilcli
from Susquehanna, by way of the Erlo rail
road to Carbondalo, and from there to May
ticld. '1 he burglary of tho Traction ofh
was carefully planned by !be defendants to
secure a large amount of money turned In as
rares by the conductors for tho heavy frsfll
on Sunday. They were thwarted In thci
purpose and ran oIT after au exchaneo
shots with tho Traction employes.
l'atrlck Derapsoy, ono of tho witnesses,
testified that he was sitting in tbe'Traction
company's office when tho burglars entered
and gagged him. lie resisted until a re
volver was pointed at his face.
Tho list of witnesses subpoenaed by tho
prosecution is a long one. Among" them are
C. & I. Policeman James Dan'oll, Policemen
Martin Mullahey and Thomas Holln. Con
Btablo Tallesln Phillips aud Daniel E. Bron
nan, of town, and Miss Hazledine, a resident
of the Catawlssa Valley. Thcso wltuessea
have been subpoenaed to Identify the ac
cused and testify as to their character and
reputation. William Carter, former warden
of the Pottsvllle Jail, is also in attendance to
testify as to what he knows of their char
acter.
T10 evidence of Miss Ilazledino is awaited
with much interest. It has been stated tha
he will identify at least one of the accused
as one ofa gangof burglars who entered be
father's homo In tho Catawissa Valley. The
young woman and her father and mother
were bound and gagged while the burglars
ransacked the bouse. This occurred a few
weeks before the Carbondalo affair. The
gang disappeared Immediately after tho Haz-
ledino robbery and were not seen in or abpu
snenancioati between that time aud tho time
of the Carbondalo raid. Miss Hazledine'H
evidence is expected to be of a sensational
character. It Is said that she will declare
that tho man she identifies, during tho rob
bery at her homo, attempted to commit au
outrago upon her. Sho thwarted him aud in
the struggle, partly tore off his mask.
