LAST EDITION
FlETEEN JUDGMENTS
Evans Pennington Reported to Have Left
His Creditors in Inc Lurch.

ANans remington reported TO nave Lett
His Creditors in ne Lurch.
Evans Pennington, the real estate
dealer, who formerly had an Office en- Ninth
street. west of Market, is out Of town
and it is reported that he has left to
avoid mis- creditors.
He was inquired for at his residence,
703 French street. this morning, and his
san. Frank R. Pennington, said that he
was out of town and the family did not
know when he would return.
At the Office of the prothonotary of
New Castle county about fifteen judg,
ments are entered against him. The
sums range from $500 to 81, 600 and are
entered by many persons.
Several of these dgmsnts are in
favor Of former customers of the real
estate agent, who have lost money
through him.
The judgments will amount to about
S. 500, but as Mr.. Pennington took the
precaution to place all his property in
his wife's name three years ago, the
creditors may never get any of their
money.
Besides these judgments he owes
81 900, for which judgments have been
entered. The Gawthrop and Brother
Company is one Of Pennington's credit
ors.
His method Of treating customers was
by the property tax scheme, On houses
for which lie was agent he would collect
the rent and when he submitted state
ment to the owner he would say
that the tax had besn paid. The
owner would pay Pennington and
suppose his taxes were paid until he re-
celved little notice from the tax office
that certain amounts were outstanding
against his property. Then he would
have TO pay the tax collector.
Mr.. Pennington was one Of the most
prominent and reliable real estate men
In Wilmington several years ago but his
dealings recently have caused distrEst
IN him. He was the agent or nominal
owner in the sale of part Of the property
purchased by the Equitable Guarantee
and Trust Company at Ninth and Market
streets, and that was one of his last
transactions.
The report that he had skipped on &C
count of the persistency of mis- creditors
was street rumor. 1t is now under.

with him as possible.
City Solicitor Lyman denied that there
were any extenuatiug circumstances in

to Knight he thought the evidence OF
Gallagher was entitled to consideration
Judge Ball in delivering Judgment
said 1t had been a most cowardly and
brutal assault, and he thought the pris-
oners might congratulate themselves
that they were being tried on this
charge instead Of one of murder. He had
no doubt but knight was less guilty
than Hemphill. The sentence Of the court
was that Hemphill be fined 800 and
costs with one years imprisonment;
Knight 800 and costs with six months
