FOR EXTRADlTI0N.


Canada.
John Lemon, of Allegheny, who was
swindled out of $4,000 by bunko men, last
September, and Detective Pinkerton, of
Chicago, arrived here yesterday from Wind
sor, Canada, with the knowledge that one
of the principals in the September crime
was safely behind lock and key in Windsor
Some time ago Mr.. Lemon went to Chicago,
there securing the services of Detective
Pinkerton. After few weeks work on
the case he believed he had spotted his man
in the person of certain Frank j. Aldrich,
then living at Portsmouth, o.
Aldrich, by some means, became aware Of
the fact that he was being shadowed, and
consequently left for parts unknown. The
willy detective succeeding in again locating
him, however, this time in Kansas. Again
leaving, he was tracked to Windsor,
Canada, the place of his arrest on Wednes-
day last by the detective. Mr.. Lemon was
Immediately informed of his arrest, and,
after arriving, identified Aldrich as the
man who snatched the money from the vic
TINS hands and then pushed him over at
the time of the robbery.
Evidence is now being collected in Pitts
burg for the hearing to be held on the oath
inst. to obtain extradition. 1t is the opinion
of the detective that the prisoner will make
an exceedingly hot fight for his liberty.
Detective Matt Pinkerton, the celebrated
Chicago detective who captured the man
who robbed Mr.. Lemon of $4,000, will
leave this morning for New York. He is
after well-known crook whom he expects
to capture. Mr.. Pinkerton, in conversation
with DISPATCH reporter last night, said
the proprietor of the British American
Hotel at Windsor, Canada, had given him
valuable assistance in capturing the bunko
man. But for his aid the slick crook would
certainly have gone into the interior and
avoided arrest

WON In A WILL CASE.

Pittsburg Firm and Pittsburg Lawyer
Gains Big Oil and Gas Lands-The Con-
test Decided by Judge Wickham In
Beaver.
A quiet victory was achieved in the
Beaver courts yesterday that not only covers
PittSburg legal acumen with an additional
coat of honor, but brings valuable results to
well-known firm in this city.
The suit was based on the two different
wills of Rachael Mcdonald, grandmother
of the respective members OF the firm of A.
l. 6 j. Scott, the wholesale boot and shoe
men on Market street. 1t involved the pos
session OF large tract of oil and gas land
lying in the very center of the Shannopin
field,
Rachael McDonald's will of 1876 gave the
entire property to Mrs. Matte Fowler,
while will of 1882 devised the property to
A. l. & J. Scott, and contest ensued be-
tween the several heirs.
j. A. Langftt, of Pittsburg, assisted by
Thompson & Dougherty, of Beaver, ap-
peared for the Scott heirs, and Judge Hice
and J. F. Reed pleaded the suit Of the Fowler
heirs. Pittsburg wit, however was too
much for Beaver county stability, and the
Fowler defense was completely broken
down. Judge Wickham gave clean ver-
dict for the Scott heirs, without any reserva-
tion, and that firm now finds itself the
possessor of immense valuable tracts of oil
and gas lands right in the center of valuable
BELTS and just opposite the great Economy
gusher.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-01-18

This matter is very troublesome to me, / can
assure you, but l believe that anyone VINO
knows me will give me credit for not being
fool enough to allow myself to be bribed with
So 1t is very unfortunate for me that this
thing came up just now. because j.! am candl-
date for Council in the Fifth ward and L pc.
lieve that this story has only been instlgated
in order to harm me in the election. 1t is i'm
possible for me to divulge what transplred In
the grand jury room or else could tell very
fine story, something that would astound you.
But when the bill was ignored the first time
asked Sol Coulson on the City Hall steps one
day: "Why don't you bring the bill up agaln?"
l had then already been told that this man
Burns had been blowing around that ne mad
the grand jury fixed. l can assure you that no.
body is more anxious than l am to see this
matter investigated, to find out the truth OF
the story.
The residence of Mr.. James A. Doyle was
then visited. But Doyle was not at home.
His brother, however, was there, and, when
a reporter asked him whether he had any
authority to speak for his brother on the
subject, he said: "No, 1 have not; but
can tell you this much, my brother denies
that he accepted any money from Burns at
all"

HEBREW LITERATURE.
The Part Pittsburs Takes in Its National
Distribution.


Distribution.
Josiah Cohen, Esq. of this city, will leave
for New York tomorrow to attend a meet
ing of the Hebrew Publication Society OF
North America, to be held next Sunday.
This association was organized about one
year ago, is national in its character, and
has for its object the publication and dis
semination of the best Jewish literature Of
all times and ages.
Rev. DR.. L. MAYER, of Allegheny, said
yesterday:
A threatening lack Of harmony between the
rabbis and some of the laymen at last year 5
meeting has given way to a feeling that both
elements must work hand in hand in order to
be successful. Some of our most energetic
workers. beside the originatoTs, are Mr. Sulz-
berger, the Philadelphia lawyer; George Rosen-
thai. of Albany; Isador Busch, of St Louis: Mr..
Shift, of New York, and Mr.. Guckenheim, of
Philadelphia. In this city the Y. NJ. H. A. has
the honor of being the first member of the As
sociation, and a branch association has been
organized here, the work being furthered by
the presence of DR.. Krauskopf this week. The
aforementioned persons have in all con-
tributed about SIS, 900 to the society.
But the main support Of the society will
be the members, of whom there are already
large number A membership in the So
ciety costs So per year, and entities the men,
Der to a copy of each of the society's pub
locations for that time. A society similar to
this one was organized several years ago,
but, owing to bad management, the project
failed. From its ruins rose this one, which
bids fair to succeed as brilliantly as the
other one failed miserably. 1t is in no way
a money-making concern, and members re-
ceive the full value of their subscription
money in the shape of frst-class and very
desirable literature.
