able Characters were brought before the

nected with the inceudiary fires. A. will be

house Jack," and his craw, Of this city, who
have long been terror to the citizens Of
Sbafrr. were among thu number. They nd
mitted being pro9ased gamblers, but the
specific charge OF fncendfarism could not be
proven against them, and the committee
therefore contcnted- themselves by banishing
them from the city. They arrived In Buffalo
on Wednesday morning, and seemed to fully
realize the naIrow escape they had from
hanging, and II their assertions can be be-
lieved, they win never trust their precious
ca1casses within the limits Of the oil regions
