A DESPERATE RoBBHR.
A Woman Fatally Beaten by Murder
GUS Hungarian,

HAzLEToN, Pa, Dec. 5.--The northern
portion of Hazleton was thrown into
wild excitement by the boldest attempt
at robbery and murder that has ever
been made in this region, At 3 o'clock
in the afternoon John Mattoclt, Bo-
homian, knocked at the door Of Joseph
Plutessny, who was absent, and when
his wife Mary answered the call Mattock
stepped in and demanded money Mrs.
Plutessny was not prepared to accom-,
modste him and was expressing herself
to that effect when the .Jnan procured an
ak and brought it d5Nn upon the de-
fenseless woman's head.
Then he started TO search for money.
He visited all the rooms on the second
floor, but without success. When ho
came down stairs Mrs. Plutessny was
showing signs of recovering conscious
ness. Mattock thought she might tell
where the money was. and he waited
for her to revive. When she did so the
demand was renewed She indicated
that it was up stairs, and the man half
carried her up the steps, and after de-
posting her on the floor proceeded to
look for the treasure. Seeing her make
move towards the window, he again
pounced upon her and dealt her blow
with the AK. The woman was knocked
senseless, and he continued his search.
The contents of trunk, $50, did not
satisfy him and he began strangling her.
Producing heavy twine he tied it about
her neck and twisted it until she became
black in the face.
Then fastening the cord with a stick,
he proceeded TO dress himself in suit
of new clothing which he took fancy
to. Then he departed. The woman had
been dragged beneath window, and as
partially recovering beckoned to a neigh
Dor, who went to her assistance. The
injured woman was released, but soon
afterward lost consciousness and hass.not
since recovered. Officers captured the
desperate. He refused to talk, but was
identified by fellow countrymen IA the
murderer of man in Bohemia and for
which crime he Is now fugitive from
justice. The feeling against the prisoner
Is strong and frequent threats Of lynch
ing are made. 1t is feared that Mrs.
Plutessny will die
