nrnE LAWS DELAY
A Jealous Government Official Breaks Up
Whisky Ring.

a Whisky Ring.
Few criminals feel the severity of the
strong arm of the law more than those
who fall into the hands of the United
States Courts. An instance in point
came to our notice in the United States
Court Clerks Office yesterday. Ephraim
j. Shryock, wagonmaker, residing in
the little village of Wheeling, about fif-
teen miles north of Cambridge, Guernsey
county, o., for three months has been in
carcerated in the Hamilton County Jail
for selling, or rather trading, pint and
a half of whisky to Justice of the Peace
and Deputy United States Collector, who
drank the whisky, and then having dis
covered gigantic ring, mashed it by
causing ShryocK's arrest. The story of
the defendant is to the effect that last
October he was in possession of seven
pints of whisky, purchased for his own
use. Asher Williams, jr., came to him,
and he, as he alleges, not knowing that
it was illegal, let him have a pint and a
half of the liquor, taking in pay for it a
plug of tobacco. On the 18th day of No
Yember, he was arrested on a warrant
sworn out by Williams. taken before Eliza
Turner, q United States Commissioner,
for retailing liquor without license, and
committed to Jail in default of $500 bail,
to await the action of the grand jury
He was brought to this city and locked
up, and in jail he has been from that day
until yesterday. Two weeks after his
imprisonment, on the advice of fellow
prisoner, he sent for Jimmy Fitzgerald,
who said that for SIS he would have him
out in three days. He sent home got
the money, handed it over to the distin-
guished jurist, and then waited to have
his prison doors thrown open Jimmy's
interest in his client was not very long
lived, however. He held a couple OF
consultations with the District Attorney,
and banished the matter from his care
laden mind. Day before yesterday Shry-
ock appealed by mail to the District At !
torney, who at once sent to Jail for him |
and released him on his own recogni- |
zance Had it not been for Mr.. Bate |
mans mercy he would probably have re-
NAMED in durance vile until indicted |
and tried, which, in the usual course of
events would have been about next No
gember. Shryock thinks he will remem-
'er his whisky traffic and his experience

BRUTAL ATTACK.-David Jewett (color-

restaurant last Saturday, when the noto-
rious Jim Fewell came in and began
abusing him, which Jewett did not re-
sent for some time. This enraged Few
I'll and he struck Jewe,t with a shovel
twice, cutting a cash over his eye and on
his head. Stewart had Fewell put out OF
the restaurant, and he waited outside
until Jewett, who passed out at the back
door, had come around on the street in
front Of the building when he threw n
stone at Jewett, which he lodged and
instantly threw a stone at Fewell, which
hit him, bst not severe enough 20 knock
him down Jewett followed up the stone
by clenching Fewell and throwing him,
and brought into play poker which he
had, and if he had been let alone would
undoubtedly have put finished head
on Jimmy.
Fewell was arrested and fined $40 and
costs
