She 10 to Be Brought Back and Tried Upon
Three Indictments.
Annie Derrigan, better known Is Kate Fri
day. one of the notorious female shoplifters
who operated here some months ago, is TO DC
brought back and tried again. There are
three indictments pending against Kate, sne
having been tried on but one charge. There
were originally four indictments against her
and her accomplish, Sarah Lewess, but they
were only tried in one case and sentenced.
When Kate was convicted and brought up Tor
sentence she was given two years In the Albany
penitentiary, but the sentence was subsequently
changed to one year. There being some doubt
as to the legality Of the sentence Kate was
brought in during subsequent term OF the
court ana the sentence was again changed 70
one year and one day.
Some time after Kate reached Albany no.
friends came to the front and she was taken out
on a writ of habeas corpus. The claims set
forth in the writ were sustained ana she was
discharged from prison. An arrangement hao
been made, 80 the authorities thought Tor her
apprehension when she was discharged, but
she was permitted to go free and remain SO
until now.
Last week the officers located her at Coney
Island, and Saturday a telegram sent to Chief
McKane caused her arrest and detention.
A telegram was sent back Saturday notifying
the officers Of her arrest and Detective Carter
left today with copy of the indictments
against her and will probably bring her back
to this city. but not without legal battle. a.
she will. in all probability, be looked after by
some of the best legal talent OF New York city.
The indictments pending against the woman
charge her with grand larceny. One charges
the larceny of seal skin sacque, worth $3.50,
from Willet Ruoff; another, some lace and
silk from Woodward l. Lothrop, and the third
some jewelry from Calls.
Should Kate be brought back here here trial
will undoubtedly be All interesting one.

Lindner, who is wanted here for imposing on

but according to his professions he was con-
vert to Christianity, and as such Mr.. Crist, a
local preacher, interested himself in the young
man. HIS future promised to be bright one,
as movement was on foot to start a news
paper to be devoted to the interests of the
church as we'll as other business enterprises
which promised immense wealth in the near
fnture. But about ten days ago he suddenly
left the city and was soon afterward heard from

everywhere.

When be left here he did not go away empty
handed. for he had it is alleged. pswned three
gold watches which belonged to Mr.. W. s.
Iappan, who keepsa jewelry store on 9th street.
Through his acquaintance with the Rev. Mr..
CrIst the young man was intrnsted with the
watches. He pawned the watches at Fulton's
and when he reached Baltimore he mailed the
tickets to this city. The watches were recovered
and are now in custody OF the police The
tickets showed that the watches bad boon

Mr.. William 4. Crisi, jr., swors out the war

alostan Island Saturday between the Zephyrs
and Columbia Athletic Club junior. Nine in
nings we're played. In the eight inning, with
the score tie, the Columbias made three runs.
one Of which was disputed. The umpire finally
allowed the run. The Zephyrs made two runs
in their last inning, making the score to in
favor of the Columbias. If the disputed run,
which won the game for the Columbus, had
not been allowed, the game might have termi
mated differently, although the game will prob
ably be decided draw.

Visiting Bicyclists Enjoy Themselves.

The members of the Philadelphia and Penn
sylvania Bicycle Clubs who came here to at
tend the races Saturday, remained over yester-
day and a number of them will not return
until tonight They we're all delighted with
their trip and enjoyed the many miles of
smooth concrete surface in the city, it being
SO different from the rough stone pavements
in Philadelphia.
Yesterday several out-of-town runs were
made, Cabin John bridge being the objective
point of most Of them.
Messrs Gilbert F. Wiese, n. L. Robert, Ar
thur H. Mac Owen. L. Henry Sweeting and NJ.
Peterson of the Pennsylvania Club made a run
all the way to the Big Falls. They were ac-
companied by Miss Mamie Douglas and Mr..
Brooks. The trip to the falls was a delightful
one, the sun remaining under the clouds all
the time. After seeing all the sights the party
was caught in thunder storm, but fortunately
all succeeded in getting back to the hotel be-
fore they got wet. After enjoying an elegant
dinner the party started on the return trip
The rain had ceased falling, but the road for a
distance of about two miles, from the falls to
the club house, was almost impossible, and
several cuts through the woods were found to
be necessary in order to avoid the deep mud in
the main road. With the exception of this
slight inconvenience the Philadelphians greatly
enjoyed their trip.
An effort will probably be made by the Phila-
delphians at the Hagerstown meeting next
month to have next years meeting in this
city.

Two Versions of the Anair-Mr. Schneider
Gives Himself Up and Furnishes Bail.
The shooting affair that happened near 18th
and streets Saturday afternoon, as published
in Saturdays STAR, was not as serious as was
at first supposed, although the wound in
ficted is painful one. The wounded man is
James Rollins, plumber, living at 529 It'll
street southeast, while the man who did the
shooting is Mr.. Howard Schneider of 1889 O
street Mr.. Schneiderk keeps his horse and buggy
a stable near his home, and it was at the stable
that the trouble occurred. Rollins, who was ap-
parently under the influence Of liquor, stopped
at the stable and had some words with the
boy in charge, using threatening language, it is
alleged, to Mr.. Schneider. The bow tried to get
him to go away, but he refused and seated him
self in the buggy as though he intended to take
possession.
Mr.. Schneider arrived at the stable a few
minutes later and there he found Rollins
seated in the buggy. He ordered Rollins to
leave the stable, but the latter had no idea of
doing SO unless he went away in the buggy,
| and Mr.. Schneider charges he used such lam
guage as Il am going to kill you," put ug his
hand in his hip pocket at the same ae as if
to draw a weapon. Fearing Rollir would
shoot him, Mr.. Schneider went to tn harness
box, where he kept revolver, but when he
produced the weapon it had the effect of
greatly engaging Rollins. and he made spring
at Mr.. Schneider, still endeavoring to get
something from his pocket. One shot was then
fired in the air to brighten the intruder, but it
did not have the desired effect and Mr..
Schneider fred a second shot to hit him, and
this time the bullet entered his hip. Mr..
Schneider, however, had no idea that he had
| shot Rollins, although he got in his buggy and
drove OFF. He thought that by doing this he
could get out of the way and avoid further
trouble Rollins also left the stable and got as
| far as 18th street, when he fell on a vacant lot,
and there he was picked up by the police and
sent to the Emergency Hospital. He was at
tended by DR.. Boss and was removed to his
| home later IN the afternoon.
Happears from the statements of the wounded
man $ relatives that he has had the grip, from
which he has not recovered. and at times his
mind was not clear. The young mans version
OF the affair is different from that of Mr..
schneider, he claiming that he got in the
buggy to rest himself and that Mr. Schneider
| nred three shots at him for no reason other
than that he was angry at his (Rollins) getting
As soon as Mr.. Schneider learned that he had
shot hoiiins he went to the police station and
gave himself up. He vas detained there until
later IN the day, when bail in the sum of 81 .OOO
was given and he was then released.
