A PECULIAR ROBBERY.
Two Newarkers lake a Night of 1t
in This CITY.

William Boyle, who keeps a saloon on
the corner of Ward and Hamilton streets
Newark, was held in the First Criminal
Court in this city this morning on a
peculiar charge of robbery. The com
plainant is Mr.. William Hogan, a New
ark politician, who told Justice ]. Her
bert Potts the following story
Last night he accidentally met Boyle,
who proposed a trip to Jersey City;
500 bill, ass bill and in his pocket a
handful of change. The 800 he said was
for reserves" They visited many sa-
hailed a cab, and they were driven over
to Jersey City, where more drinks were
had. 49, -
morning Sergeant O'Brien of the First
precinct was accosted by Hogan, who
Complained hat Boyle had robbed him,
and he pointed to the cab which was
then going off at a rapid rate. When the
cabman heard the officer calling on him
to stop, he whipped up his horses and
drove as rapidly as possible on the road
towards Newark.
Jumping on a trolley car the policeman
u ged the motorman to clap ON all speed.
Officer Feehan, higher up the avenue,
jumped into a peddler's wagon and
At the foot of Newark avenue hill, the
cab was stopped by the officer in the
peddler's wagon, and Boyle, who was in
side was hauled out.
Hogan and the Sergeant came along,
and the former accused Boyle of stealing
the $105.
Boyle Indignantly denied this, and was
at. once marched to the station house:
One of the officers searched the cab and
underneath the strip of carpet inside,
found the 500 bill. In Boyle's pocket
the remaining SIS bill was found.
Boyle begged of Hogan not to make a
charge, and this morning tie latter re-
Tented, but the Court insisted on the case
Boyle was represented by Counsellor
w. F. Midlege, who set up that his client
was drunk, and there was no proof that
he took the money
The Court, however, held Boyle in $500
for the Grand Jury, and detained Cab
driver Waiter of Newark street, Newark,
as a NitneSe.

PETER DEMoREsTs MORTGAGE.

There was a case before Vice Chancellor
Van Fleet this morning that brought up the
memory of Peter Demorest of Elizabeth who
recently committed suicide. Peter was ex-
ecutor of the estate of his brother George W.
and Georges wife, Julia M, was made ex-
ecutrix. Peter was accused of appropri-
ating the funds of the estate to his own use
and was arrested on a writ of re ecdte issued
by the Chancellor on complaint of Julia who
alleged that he was about to leave the
country.
He was released upon giving a mortgage
for $4,000 upon some property held by his
wife, MaIv1na. Julia foreclosed the mort
gage and secured a decree ordering the
property sold.
Malvina made application this morning to
have the decree opened OF the ground that
she was so nervous and excited that she
did not know what she was doing when
she signed the mortgage The Vice Chan
cellor reserved his decision.

Among Seven Candidates.
Opposition to the appointment of William
Wise as court crier comes from seven per-
sons, each of whom is anxious to secure the
appointment for himself. They are Richard
Garrick, William Simon, Ambrose Lynch,
John Lillis, John Heavey, George Scharfen-
berg and Charles Mum. Garrick and Wise
insist that they ave the best claim to the
post on because of their long service. Gar
rick has been identified with the Court
House since he was honorably discharged
from the army in 1865. He has been the
clerk of both courts, a deputy sheriff and
constable ever since.
William Wise, as has been published in
THE NEWS. has been a faithful court con
stable for fifteen years. and enjoyed the con-
fidence of the judges and lawyers.
William Simon is at present enjoying q
position under the Federal Government. He
was for a number of years the s~ergeant-at-
arms of the Second district civil court.
Ambrose Lynch has never held a political
office. although he is a well known and
popular democrat.
John L.illis was elected a Freebooter two
or three times and was a member of the old
Democratic County Committee for many
years. His brother is the Deputy Surro-
gate.
John Heavey was Deputy Sheriff under
Sheriff Stanton, and while in hat petition
made a host of friends who are pushing
his canvass for the office of crier with
energy.
George Scharfenberg is a Republican
barber who does a good business on Oakland
avenue and Charles Mum is an .ex-Free-
holder and ex~-Postmaster of Bayonne.
1t is expected that Judge Lippincott will
make the appointment of court crier when
the September term of court opens on the
second Tuesday in September, and it is be-
lieved by the Court House officials that
Wise and Garrick nave the best chances for
getting the office.
