JOHNNY GRAU'S ADVENTURE.
Arrested While in the Act of Leaving
Married WOmans House.

Arrested While in the Act Of Leaving a
Married WOnans House.
John Grau was arrested last night between
aud 10 o'clock at the residence of Mrs.
Lavinia Amwake, Strawberry street, near
Water, on charge Of adultery. Mrs. Am
wake is separated from her husband and
recently brought suit against him for the
maintenance of her two children. The case
is now awaiting trial. Mr.. Grau also is
separated from his wife and some years
ago was arrested for desertion. The
court ordered him to pay weekly
allowance for her support. This case was
finally fixed and Mrs. Grau agreed to ask no
money from her husband if he would not sue
for divorce. The courts order was there
fore rescinded. For some years they have
been living apart and did not molest each
other. OF late there has also been trouble in
the Amwake family and Mrs Amwake had
her husband arrested several times and each
party of course claimed to he right He
finally refused to live with her.
Since the domestic troubles in the two
families have existed it has been charged
that there were improper relations between
Mr. Grau and Mrs. Amwake. Last night
Officers Barnhold Boas and Bushong, from
information received, visited Mrs. Amwake's s
house, Boas and Bushong statIoning them
selves at the front door, and Barnhold at the
back door. The officers at the front door
knocked, and after little delay were admit
ted by Mrs. Amwake. They asked for Grau,
and were told he was not there. They said
they would search the house, and while do
ing so, Grau quietly slipped out of the
back door, and was arrested by Barn
hold. He was taken to the station house and
thence to the Office of Alderman Barr. The
alderman entered bail tor Grau's appearance
and Grau entered bail for Mrs. Amwake s
appearance before Alderman Deem, to answer
at hearing, respectively the charges of adul-
terry, made against them. Officer Barnholt
is the prosecutor.
