M0LLICK AT LONG BRANCH,
He Reaches His Home on Saturday and
Resumes Baking.

He Reaches His Homo on Saturday and
Resumes Baking.
Frank Mollick, the baker who was ar
rested at Long Branch and brought to this
city by Superintendent O'Mara on suspicion
of being concerned in the Anarchist plot to
kill H. c. Frick, reached his home Saturday
and re-entered the employ of Mr.. Heidi.
Through Prosecuting Attorney WINS and
Lawyers Edmund Wilson, of Red Bank and
Thomas 2. Fay, of Red Bank, legal action
has already been commenced against Super
intendent O'Mara for his extradition and
punishment for the alleged kidnapping of
Mollick.
Mollick asserts now that he asked for
hearing when arrested, and requested that
counsel be allowed him. He declares that
he told Mr.. Heidi he would have lawyer
and had Messrs. Fay and Wilson sug-
gested to him by his employer.
MoIlick also asserts that after his
capture O'Mara asked him to sign a
paper coniessing completely in the shoot
ing of H. c. Frick, ana when the superin-
tendent found that he could not keep him in
Pittsburg, he sent him a lawyer. who
charged $50 ior two days services. He
also alleges that his captor presented
him with a written document in this city to
sign, which was nothing more than con-
tract that he would not sue either OMara
or Captain layton, of Long Branch, for what
they had done.
An effort was made to find Superintendent
O'Mara last evening to secure his Affirmative
or denial of Mollfck's statements, but he
could not be found.

STILL CLAIMs,AN ALIBL.
Mr.. Bremen Promises Suit for False
Arrest in Ed. Burke's Case.

Arrest in Ed. Burke's Case.
W. j. Bremen, the attorney for the Anal
gamated Association, took a rest yesterday,
but he was down town last evening. He
still thinks Secretary Lovejoy made a blum
der when he filed a charge of murder against
Ed. Burke. Mr.. Bremen claims he can
prove by Pat Allen and other reputable wit
nesses that on the day of the riot Burke was
in Pittsburg, and he expressed himself as
being glad he wasn't there,
81 think" said Mr.. Bremen, "that some
body has laid himself open, in this case, to a
charge of false arrest with good-sized
damage suit in the bargain. We can
prove the alibi at the proper time.
1t is g. question whether Mr.. Love
joy has the right to make these
informations. Wharton says in his criminal
law that a man must know of his own
knowledge before he can make a charge of
murder. Mr.. Lovejoy is not an officer of
the law, and the proper person to institute
these prosecutions is the District Attorney.
1 must say that Mr.. Burleigh has been very
fair to both sides. These cases will updoubt-
edly reach the Supreme Court, whore a
number of points unsettled now will be
passed upon"
The riot and melting riot charges will be
made early this week against the members
Of the firm and the Pinkertons. Mr.. Bren.

markable story of police life was told him.

his tail and left the office. Since then he
has not been seen.

was seen boarding a car with man who
lives at Montrose. Mr.. Muth hopes that the

FELL INTO A P0sTH0LE
Novel Experience Of a Boy While Playing
Baseball

Novel Experience OF boy W nile P11yfnR
Baseball
Little John Welsh, of Twenty-seventh
street, had a peculiar experience while play
ing ball in the vacant lot at the foot OF Twen-
ty-sixth street Saturday afternoon. Walsh
was acting as shortstop and pitcher, ana in
fact was doing almost all the fielding. A we'll
directed stroke of the batsman sent the ball
spinning over the fence.
Walsh, with the agility of cat, sprang
over after it. After looking Tor it for several
minutes he found it in a posthole which had
been dug Saturday. The hole was about
three feet deep. and, when the lad leaned
over to get the ball, he lost his balance and
fell headlong into fr. All efforts to extrfcate
himself proved fruitless, and he was about to
resign himself to his fate when his compan-
ions saw his feet kicking above the surface.
The boy was thoroughly exhausted when re-
leased.

A Sad Life Picture.
Chicago Nail.

Chicago Nail.
A wedding which has been on the
tapis in North Side society circles for
some time past will not occur, and the
cause of the breaking off of the engage
ment forms one of the Saddest stories Of
its kind which Chicago has ever heard.
The prospective groom was we'll
known young business man who is q
member of several clubs and stands I'M
usually high in social ana business
circles. His betrothed was one Of the
faireSt and most cultured Of the upper
stratum in which she moved. Recently
the young man was forced TO take trip
to the south in the interest OF his health.
Upon his return he stopped at small
Illinois town on business matter, and
was surprised to meet in the lobby OF
the hotel a man who formerly was
sutton for the hand of his tiancee. The
latter gentleman was unmarried, but
the hotel register bore the words land
wife" after his name.
Arriving iD Chicago the lover lost no
time in visiting the home Of his loved
one, but was informed that she had
gone to visit lady friend on the South
Side the day before and had not re-
turned. Casually the girls mother men
toned that Mr.. Blank (the former suit
orr had accompanied her. Burning with
a horrible suspicion the half-distracted
lover FASTENED to the South Side adj
dress, only TO learn that his betrothed
had not been there. BY the next train
he went to the towu where he met his
rival. The latter had gone, but the in
vestigations made by the Chicagoan
added a score of years to his appearance
when he returned to his home few
hours later.
He went to his fance'S residence
again and received hearty welcome.
The girl had just returned. She Stoutly
denied having been out of the city, and
insisted that her parents should be fully
informed OF the affair. The old people
were summoned and their prospective
son-in-law, heartbroken, made his state
ment to them. The daughter began by
denying every allegation, but, as proof
after proof was brought forward, she
suddenly arose and shrieking, "Oh, my
God, l can stand this no longer; IL is all
true" fell in swoon. A physician was
hastily summoned, but his services were
OF little avail. The erring girl soon re-
gained consciousness, but she did not
recover her senses. From that day TO
the present she has been raving luna
tic.
