GRAVE CHARGES.
An East Rochester Physician
Charged With Ruining
Sixteen Year Old dPatient--Particulars
Of a Case That Should be Thprously
Investigated.

An Alliance special ssys: A case which
arouses most intense indignation among
the people Is that at East Rochester, a
small village located few miles south of
this city, wherein doctor, after being
married but three months, succeeds in
seducing girl but sixteen years of age,
the beloved daughter in home where he
was called TO treat the sick. Though a
young physician of promise he seems to
have given way completely to his lustful
desires and secured the young girls
ruin by the most despicable methods,
taking advantage of liberties allowed to
him as professional man to accomplish
his base designs. So intense did the peo-
pie become in their denunciation of bis
shameful conduct that he removed to
another town, but his shame follows him
and 1t is expected that he will be brought
to justice soon. To reputable citizen
he has made full confession, giving full
details of how he proceeded in the ac-
complishment Of bis purpose. When con-
fronted by the father of the girl he
pleaded that the matter might be kept
quiet, promising in that case to soon
marry the girl, as his wife was in poor
health and would not live long. A tar and
feather surprise and criminal action is no
doubt in store for the doctor in the near
future.

ATTEMPTED MURDER.
With Coal Pick and Kuife, Two Pol
ish Miners
Badly Use Up Comrade-Partioulars of
Bad Racket at North Industry.

Mike Gokoflsky, young Russian, is a
much injured man. Last evening he
swore out warrant for the arrest, on q
charge of assault and battery, of John
Shewattach and John Shebeck, two Polish
miners, employed in Richards coal pit,
near North Industry. AS Mike sat on the
chair while he spelled out to the clerk the
names of the men who had ASSAULTED
and batteredn him he looked pitiful
object indeed, His left arm was hung on
his breast by pieces of white cloth. It
was badly hurt having had a sharp pointed
coal pick driven into the fleshy part four
times, by bis murderous assailants. He
had also been stabbed and hacked with a
knife used by one of the men. Mikes
face looked as IL he had went through a
dog fight with it and had been worsted.
His clothing was "broke," as he expressed,
in score of places.
He alleges that yesterday these two
men had asked him to come to the shanty,
where they and two other men were
boarding themselves, as they had some
thing to tell Mike. When they, got him
inside the door one of them raised a coal
pick and knocked him down, while the
other tried TO carve him with a huge
knife. He says they would have surely
killed him IL a third man had not inter
yfered. The mans name he could not tell.
Mike was taken to the Infrmary to re-
cover from his beating.

The action Of the hospital people in re-

CAUGHT IN CLEVELAND.
A wiimot Man who Was Charged with
Embezzlement.

Bmbezzlement.
Constable Slagle went to Cleveland yes
terday to arrest W. S. Spidell who was
charged with embezzlement. The man
was found and II now seems as IL the
trouble is settled. W. S. Spidell, in 1887
was an attorney and justice Of the peace
in the town Of Wilmot, Stark county.
John Marchand was a resident of the
place who had bad bill for $51 So, 30 he
left it with Justice Spidell for collection.
The justice, 1t seems, easily collected the
money. but neglected to turn 1t over to bis
client, Mr.. Marchand, The latter en-.
quired about the bill and Spidell said he
had collected II and paid II over to March,
and's mother. When Marchand saw his
mother he asked her IL Spidell had paid
her $51.65. She said he had not. When
Marchand found he could not get his
money though loath to do 1t, he appeared
before Justice Ringle of this city April 8,
and made out an affidavit charging Spi-
dell with embezzlement and appropriat.
ing to his own use s51.65. belonging to
Marchand since '87. Constable -Slagle
went to Cleveland yesterday and found
Spidell, who Is now one of Uncle SANS
boys, weighing mail on the c. L. q W. r..
r. between Cleveland and Wheeling. He
was In the Society for Savings building.
Marchand had said he would push the suit
no further IL the matter could be settled
outside Of the courts. Spidell gave a
check for the amount.

The wire workers worked hard the wires
from Canton here since the Columbus rip,

Canton ripper through. But she has
failed to rush. Ia fact the Canton ripper
seems to have been put to sleep. Repre-
sentative Rowlen has so telegraphed City
Solicitor Turner. When the Columbus
Ripper went through, Turner appealed to
Rowlen by telegraph TO call up the Canton
Ripper, hence Rowlen's reply and these
tears. Rowlen wired Turner that the bill
could not be passed, even IL called up and
put on its passage. Now there appears
no local statesman of either party SO poor
as to do the infant reverence. The trick

WALKED INTO DANGERS JAWS.
Miraculous Escape Of a Railroad Tourist
From Death.

frOn Deatn.
A man about forty years of age, who
gives his name as Tom Mcdonald and
says he has no home, was struck on
bridge No. 1877, on the W. G,iL. E. road at
Navarro this morning. Engineer Bishop
OF the north bound local whistled for the
man before the latter reached the bridge
but no attention was paid to the warning
and it was impossible 10 stop the train
before the trackwalker was struck.
He was carried by the pilot of the en-
gine off the bridge and thrown down the
bank. The trainmen picked the unfort-
unate up, brought him to this city and he
was taken to TippinG's boarding house.
An examination by DR.. Hardy, the COM
pany surgeon, showed that the mans left
leg was broken near the ankle andthat he
was cut on the head and badly bruised on
the body. His injuries are not serious.
When asked why he had walked on the
bridge after the signal was given he re-
piled, ~ don't know I'm sure must be
crazy.n He says he worked on the W. C
L. E. road several years ago.-Massil-
