A RAILWAY Coal Merchant Arrested for Rob-
bling his Ncighbors.

What with its gas and water works, its
factories and family stoves, Railway, N. j., con
sumes more coal than is usual In citles OF eight
thousand souls. and the sale Of coal Is one OF its
principal commercial Industries. For several
months past her coal merchants have been re-
marking an uneXplalnable shrinking In the
weight OF coal, which, receipted for by the
carrying companies at invoice weights, often
reached the con-gnoes short by hundreds OF
pounds. 1t was strongly suspected that some
one visited the coal cars at night and stole the
shortage. This suspicion was rendered more
probable by the fact that the cars generally we're
left at night at the freight depot, IN sight OF
which there L. but one dwelling house. They
thought, in fact, that nothing could be easier to
one in search OF cheap coal than TO carry IL
thence by the ba1ful.
Railway police, and no watched around the
f,eirht depot for a week without finding thief.
On Friday eleven car loads OF coal were received
and showed on siding over night. Six OF tho
cars contained egg coal consigned to Oscar
lledell, ana Ave contained pea coal for Taylor &
nOodgOod, woollen manufacturers. The two
lots were placed at least n hundred yards apart
on the siding Onicer Emil Frank was set TO
watch the cars from place whence he could
see without being seen. He watched until sun
rise In vain. When he was about giving up at
A. NJ. he saw wagon drive up to one Of Blood
good & Taylors cars. and immedi ately after
ward the driver, a negro, began shoyelling In
coal. while his companion stood by In the
shadow of the cars. When the negro had nlled
the cart nearly full he drove OF u one OF Mr.
Bedelrs cars and topped OF his load. Just then
Oficer Frank came down on them, and found
that his prizes were Oscar Bedel and his porter
Joseph Conover. Bedell protested that the coal
was his own and the ofiicer oon,ented himself
with simply reporting his discoveries TO Chief
Fallon. Bloodgood & Taylor, however, had
Bedel ana Conover arrested on war; Mt OF
| Squire Trussler The prisoners waived examina-
| ton and were held to await the action Of the
| Grand Jury, Mr.. Bloodgood becoming their
bondsman.
