THE ADVOCATE.

Richard Clarkson, alias Cronin OF
Brooklyn, was arrested in Philadelphia
on Wednesday, on the charge of swim
ding A. G.. Linden, of Wrightsville,
Georgia, by means of the Green Goods
game. When Clarkson was searched
green goods circulars were found upon
Him, and several kilograms signed by
John w. Ecklar, Jeffersonville, Ky.
and w. II. Fink and j.. Norman, Bow
ling Green, Ky.
Al special from Philadelphia, to the
Cincinnati Enquirer, goes on to say:
The police authorities at once con-
cluded that Clarkson was here for the
purpose of meeting his dupes and
steering them to New York, where
3they could be swindled, as Linderwas.
Ma search at the hotels was made, and
Vie officers were rewarded by finding
Ecklar at the Hotel Waverly.
Although it was only 6 O'Clock last
evening, Ecklar had already retired,
and when the officers Knocked on his
door he concluded that he was to be
forcibly broken in on and robbed. He
at once made preparations for stub
born resistance by rolling the bed
against the door and placing the wash
stand against the bed, and completed
y his defensive arrangements by piling
UP tho chairs against the wash-stand'
With a large revolver in his hand, he
took his stand behind this barricade
and defied his supposed assailants to
enter
After much persuasion Ecklar was
iaduced to believe no harm was in
Sinded him, and he consented to re-
move his defenses and.allow the officers
to make a peaceable entry into the
room. He was placed under arrest
and taken to detective headquarters.
AThere he stated that he was the pro-
prietor of small store some three
miles out of Jacksonville, Ky. lie
had been in correspondence with the
Green Goods men for some time, and
finally made an engagement to meet
one of them here and purchase $500
worth of their goods. A mistake of
his in confusing New York with Phil
adelphia saved him his money. He
left home Monday, and instead Of get
\ ting off here, went on to New York.
; On his arrival there he discovered his
mistake, and al once came back here,
but arrived hours after the time set
i3r his meeting with the swindler.
Ecklar's one haunting idea, at de-
Nctivc headquarters, was that the
swindler would find him there and
relieve him Of his money, and he was
dst in, his pleadings for Captain
MESS yo sit up all night with him. IL
Ma supposed signers Of the Other teie-
tEams. Funk and Norman, were met
here Wednesday and taken to New
Work Clarksou, after his arrest, was
brought before United States Commits
sioner Bell and held in $1,000 bail for
hearing on Saturday. An effort
| will he made TO bring Linden here
4 and E9Slar will be made to testify"
Ecllar, the sweet-scented geranium,
who figures so conspicuously in this
Wfair, has been familiar sight on our
streets for several summers past where
Ne has peddled chickens. His inordi-
e9late desire to accumulate money has
Ad him into the path of the swindler,
and it is to be hoped the lesson this
will teach him will make of him
more cautious if not more honest
man. W..

PiTTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 5.-When court con-
vened this morning the Jury in the fans
case came in and asked leave to submit
IN writing question which they
did not wish to ask opeuly.
After reading it Judge Porter told the Jury
the subject of the ipquiry was wholly imma-
terial. ANY other action between tho
parties could not enter into the case The
Judge continued as follows:
AS to the instructions given YOU to find
the defendants not guilty in assault and hat
teTy, L propose you shall obey the court
You, OF course, may ignore the Instructions
You are the judges of fact and law; not law
as you think 1t should be, but what
IL IS We have told YOU what
the supreme court of the United States saws
the law Is. If any man on this Jury thinks
ne knows more than the supreme court of the
United States of course he will stick to his
OWE opinion. 1t is a shame. however. thar a
man with such profound knowledge should
waste his time in jury box"
Ihe court then warned the Jury against
inc danger or being guided by feelings OF
prelu lice and the jury retired, returning
shortly afterwards with a verdict of not
guilty.
The trlte saying, no one can tell what
Jury Will do, has been fully verified in this
case. Not lawyer who heard the charge In

LoNDoN, Nov. 5--Tho collapse Of Sig.
Lagos opera season at tho new Olympic
theater has been received with general re-
grot, rs Sig. Lago deserved well of the
people. lie it was who cut down the prices
Of admission ana made it possible to produce
operas adequately rendered and staged at
moderate prices. In addition 10 lowering
the prices of admission, Sig. Lago intro
duced to London many tirst.class singers in
cluding the Ravologio sisters, and produced
"Cavalieria Rustcansn in London. After
doing all this his only reward has been TO
see his singers tempted awav from him by
higher salaries, and his repertory initiated
by his powerful rival, Sir Augustus Harris
manager of the Covent Garden ana other
theaters. Since the opening OF the season
there has been bitter rivalry between Sig.
Lago and Sir Augustus Harris, which
resulted in neither house being filed regu-
larly, aud neither giving quite trst-class
performance. The Globe urges that Sir
Augustus content himself with his uu-
doubted monopoly of the real opera seasons
and leave the supply of the cheaper autumn
season to Sig. Lago.
