Scene in Judge Pratt's Court

The application Of Minnie Hauk TO regain
possession of her child, who was in tho Gus
tody Of Mra Joseph Rubsam, widow OF the
Staten Island brewer, was dismissed in the

that the child was the daughter Of Joseph
Rubsan and the petitioner, and had been born
while Rubsam was married to the woman who
had the custody Of the child. He claimed that
the child had been taken from Its mother by
force, ana he produced sfIidavIts showing the
good character of his Client who Is now
married and lives In Cleveland.
Lawyer Untermeyer, for Mrs Rubsam, ad-
mitted that the child was Rubsam's illegitimate
daughter. but said tina, he had adopted 1t into
his own home, and when he died had left the
child the income Of 5000. 900.
Mrs. Rubsam had supported the child. Ieav-
ing her income intact and when the girl was
of aRe she would be worth $500, 900. The
child's best interests demanded that she should
remain where she was.
Judge Pratt decided that the child should re-
main with the RubsamG
"The child has not been with its mother for
| ten or twelve years. 1t Is shown that she was
abandoned by her mother, ana the chud's best
| the application and allow the girl to stay where
| she is."
During the proceedings in court the little
girl sat between Mrs Rnbsam and her fathers
sister. When the decision was announced the
party started TO 60, when Mrs. Hauk ran after
| them.
Lawyer Untermeyer picked up the child in
his arms and started to run downstairs, but
was stopped by the mother.
| A half dozen men grabbed Minnie Hauk and
held on TO her.
| LET me 60; let mo goi" she cried. "I
will see my child and tell her ths. am her
mother"
! Young Untermeyer started downstairs and
the woman broke away and ran after him.
She was stopped again, and tho lawyer escaped
with the child ON his back and ran down Full
ton street
Mrs. Hauk returned to the corridor Of the
| courthouse and WAS surrounded BY q large
crowd. She cried and denounced her treat
ment as an outrage.
'They have never told her am her
mother, she said.
Afew minutes later the sympatnizers OF both
factions, including the lawyers, got into q
| heated argument, and II looked az though
there would be free nght
A policeman was sent for and the crowd was
dispersed. Mrs Hauk will appeal the case.
She denies that she wants the child in order TO

A NEW FACTORY.

Another manufacturing enterprise is
to be established in Bloomsburg. w.
H. Schuyler, Theodore Redeker and
J. f. Kiefer Of Hughesville, propose to
put up a furniture factory that will en-
ploy thirty to forty men. A site has
been donated by the Land Improve
ment Company, consisting of ten lots
on Seventh street, in the addition to
the town, facing on the ID. L. & w.
r. r., between Spruce and Locust
streets. Two brick buildings will be
erected, two stories high, each 100 feet
long and 50 feet wide, and an engine
house aox3o feet. A loan of $2o,oo
will be made, which will be secured by
bonds and mortgage on the plant, the
bonds to be at per cent, and to be
guaranteed by the Land Improvement
Company. Work on the buildings will
begin at once, and it is expected that
they will be completed by December
ISt.
The parties interested in this enter
prise are practical men with long ex-
perience in the furniture business.
They will employ skilled labor mostly.
The necessary amount of money is
nearly all subscribed.

Since the arrest of Ellis Young the
following appeared in the Mountain
Echo, viz; THE arrest of Ellis Young
seems to have stirred the Fishingcreek
confederacy to the very core and the
well meaning people of that locality
are likely to get their foot in it again
as they did before"
Since the trial and acquittal of Mr..
Young, the now wiser Echo man may
have learned that under the civil law
a democrat has recognition as well as
a republican. That under the civil
law there are two sides to every ques-
ton, whereas, under military, despotic
and arbitrary misrule there is but one.

called Fishingcreek corfederacy the

WATSON.

In the issue Of March goth 1901,
The COLUMBIAN contained an article
announcing the arrest of Ellis Young,
and briefly stated the facts of the case,
saying that Lieut.. Robinson and his
party had no authority to arrest any
one at the time Of the shooting. This
statement was met by the Republican
in very wrathful manner, charging us
with "apologlzing for crime" and char
acterizing the shooting as a "base
murder" The article wa5 calculated
to infame passion and excite prejudice
against Ellis Young. In replying, The
COLUMBIAN said "The trial of the case
will show which is right"
We are informed that Judge Rice,
a republican, in his charge to the jury
stated in substance just what THE Co
LUMBIAN said in the article above re-
ferred to. Will the Republican charge
Judge Rice with "apologizing for crime"
because the editor of that paper failed
in his desire to have Ellis Young
hanged?
This is not the first time that the
editor Of the Republican, has been
mistaken in his prediction of what was
going to happen in court. The Blooms
burg School Board case in which he
slanderously attacked the court, the
counsel, and every body else who had
hand in ousting him and others from
the board, is still well remembered, as
is also his prediction OF the triumphant
vindication" that awaited him in the
Supreme Court. The vindication never
came, and the opinion of that court
deciding against him, is one of the
most terse and scathing on record.
The trial of the Young case is over,
and it has proven that our statements
of the case at the time of the arrest
were perfectly correct.
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1891-09-25

testimony of Young shows that when
he heard the horn blown at Smith S
house he went to Miner Smiths house
and got Smiths gun and started down
the road home. When he came up
on the other party there was shooting.
The others, he said, shot first, and then
he shot. If this story be true it would
seem to furnish good case of self de
fense. The Commonwealth, however,
present different allegation of facts.
Their testimony shows that as soon as
Robson called "Halt" Young and
his party opened fire, the reports COM
ing like single flash, to use the Ian
guage Of one of the witnesses. A
principle in the law of self-defense is
that the danger itself must not be
sought. The jury must decide wheth-
er Young and his party intended to
meet the others when they came up
the road from Aaron Smiths house.
If as is sworn to by some Of the wit
nesses, Young called Smith back from
the woods, said Lets go up, don't be
a coward" it would in measure indi-
cate that the danger was sought and
could have been avoided if necessary.
If, however, he had reason to believe
that ne was in grave danger, and that
there was no means of escape, he
would be entitled to the benefit of
plea of self.defense.
The jury retired at 5:45 and after
being out nearly four hours, sent in
word that they had agreed. At o:45
the clerk took the verdict which was
as follows: ave find Ellis Young
not guilty of any crime charged in the
Indictment"
