night, James McCabe, William Rogers
and James Darnelly, who have been
boarding at the Friendly Inn tor several
weeks, came home much TIE worse for
liquor, which is against the rules OF the

and they walked in, but were soou
stopped by Geo. Marstelle, one of the
attendants, who told them that, IN their
present condition they would have to
seek other quarters for the night. This
state of proceedings raised the BLOOD of
these men who were spelling for a

came to blows, the whole three making
an attack on Mr.. Marstelle, and he
would have Jared badly had it not been

A swINDLING OPERATION.

How Two Confidence Operators
Prayed tho Game on an Unsus.
pocling German Woman.
Yesterday morning about 10 o'clock, a
man who represented himself to be
James Harris, mercL ant tailor at No.
1886 Market street, called at the house
of Ferdinand Hitler at No. COL Tatnall
street, and stated that he wanted to get
one hundred yards OF carpet wove, fo-
which he would bring the rags in the
afternoon. There was no one at home
but the daughter, the father being at
work at Hilles & Jones', and the moth
or having gone to market. The young
girl told the man that he would have to
come when her mother was at home, as
she was unable to say anything about
it. Mrs. Hitler returned shortly after
the man had left, and about half past
ten o'clock another man came, VINO
said that his name was Smith. This
Ian told a pititul tale about being a
stranger in this city, and said that he
was to have met q Captain Billinger in
Wilmington, who owed him $3.50, but
was unable to find him. He represent
ed himself as native of Denmark, and
stated that he needed the money to
take him home.
After having told the story of his
troubles, he produced box of jewelry.
containing a chaiD, ring and some other
articles, and said that as he could not
find the captain he would have to bor-
row some money on that He went
away but returned in a short time ap-
parently in great distress and said that
he was unable to find Billinger and did
not know what TO do. While he was
talking to Mrs. Hitler the man who
represented himself to be Harris re-
turned and upon being told of the case
said that he would willingly lend him
some money on the jewelry as 1t was
valuable, but unfort unately he did not
have any with him The men left, and
n a short time Harris came bacK, and
offered Mrs. Hitler $3.50, /" s.vD Smith
for the jewelry should he f.turn Mrs
Hitler declined to take the money and
told him that he had better soc the
man himself. Ina little time smith
came back and again seated that he
could not find the captain and did not
know what he was going to do. Mrs.
Hitler plying the man and mo doubt
influenced by Harris actions, loaned
him $40 and took the box Of jew elry as
security.
In the evening when Mr.. Hitler re.
turned from his work, his wife told
him of the transaction, and produced
the box with its valuable contents, (?)
which upon examination he pro-
nounced worthless, as the jewelry is
nothing more than composition of
cheap metal made to deceive.
Harris is said to have been a fine look.
ing man with dark hair and blue eyes,
handsomely dressed aud having the
appearance of an Israelite. He wore
gold watch with gold chain and al
heavy seal. The man Smith had the
appearance of seafaring man, had
dark hair and eyes and spoke broken
German.
1t would be well for others to keep a
sharp lookout for these swindlers, az 1t
is probable that they will try the game
with some variations in other parts of
the city.

Orara Troupe, was recovered about 6
O'Clock yesterday IL ornipg,a a few rods
from the point where Rietzel's body
was found week ago, but nearer to a
peint of land. From the fact that Comfy
was found in his shirt sleeves and with
his shoes off, it is inferred that he had
attempted to save Reitzel, who could
not swim, and that, failing in the at
tempt, he swan for an island, but be.
came exhausted before he reached it
and sank. His gold watch and chain
and about 500 in money were foun on
