An italian and a Drummer Are Looking for
Their Cash.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,
on CITY, February 1S.-Jacob Adamo,
an italian, who lives alone in small build
ing up Charley Run, and is generally
known as "Jakey," game into town this
afternoon, bearing the marks of rough treat
ment. He had bad cut over his right eye
and was bleeding freely from several ugly
wounds upon the head. From the account
he gave in broken English it was learned
that shortly before noon tall young man,
wearing a white hat, came into his place,
represented himself to be a detective in
search of counterteiters, and showed some
kind of badge upon his breast. When he
got near enough to the old man he knocked
him down, tied his hands behind him,
kicked him brutally and beat him into in
sensibility with an ak.
When Adamo regained consciousness he
found that $25 had been stolen from him
and the robber was gone. Nothing is known
of the perpetrator. A Cleveland drummer,
who was in the city over Sunday and
stopped at the boarding house of Mrs.
Richey, on Elm street, is short $3.50. He
says that he laid down on the bed yesterday
afternoon, and when supper time came he
found himself arousing from a stupor of
some kind and thought he could smell
chloroform

Louie Stanley's Cash.
NEW YORK, February l6-Facts have come
to light which show that the recent female
bicycle race here was a hippodrome. The re-
ports sent out to the effect that $4,000 or more
were taken at the door as admission fees were
untrue. The Stare of the receipts due the
females was something like SSl2, and Mr.. Troy
has resolved to only pay small portion of this
to the eight contestants which he entered. One
of them is Lottie Stanley, the winner. Troy saws
that the girls were under contract to him at a
salary of SIS per week when riding and SO per
week when not engaged in contests. Lottie
Stanley says this Is true, but that she was
promised extra money if she won. She claims
$3.50.
There was a scene among the parties last
night at the Madison Avenue Hotel. Lottie
Stanley ami the other girls beseiged Troy for
their money, but he refused to give up any
more than the contract called fo1. Stanley
threatens to attach the bicycles and the per-
centage of the receipts still IN the hands of
Billy o Brien, The latter said he paid out
Sl.300 for expenses during the week. Stanley
further says that she did not receive cent for
winning the l00-mile race at Brooklyn lately.
