swindlers Busy in the Greenvflle
District.

The Fifth precinct police have warned
the residents of Greenville against a
clever swindler who has been at work
in that section for over a week. The
swindler is well dressed and carries a
small hand bag, which is filled with
the stones, when placed in the bowl of
a lamp, is sure prevention against ex-
plosion He calls upon the housewives,
when the head of the family is at work,
and tells the lady of the house that her
husband sent him with instructions to
the wife to buy a certain number of the
stones BY this ruse the swindler has
made big money. His operations have
for the most part been confined to the
West Side.
Another swindler has been reported as
masouerading under the guise ~of a
priest This swindler called at the resi-
dence of Mrs Hudspeth-Benson on Gar
field avenue yesterday afternoon, and
asked to see the servant. When Mrs.
Benson's domestic appeared the swindler
told her that he had come to make the
annual collections, and demanded a con-
tribution. Mary, the servant, gave him
ten cents. whereupon he replied indig-
nantly that he could not be expected to
saw mass for a dime. Mrs. Benson has
notified the police, and the residents OF
the Celery district, and Catholic fami-
lies IN particular, will be warned.

Judge Nudspeth Dcnounces the Fay
onne Row over Corpse AN Outrage
Its an outrage against decency and
morality that disgraceful quarrel be-
tween two pndertakers should be yentll-
ated in this court" remarked Judge
Hudspeth this morning in the Court of
General Sessions, when the Routh-Demp-
sey-Lockman fight over the dead BODY
of young Lockman was resumed this
morning by ex-Judge Thomas F. Noonan,
who appeared for Morgue Keeper Routh,
to answer to a motion to show cause
why he should not give up the body,
which he now holds in the Bayonne
morgue.
Mr. Noonan agreed with the Court that
the affair was an outrage against de-
cency, but it was the fault of the Lock
mans, who would not pay for expenses
incurred by Routh on contract agreed
upon by both sides. II suppose you
know" returned Judge Hudspeth, that
Routh is liable to be indicted, and per-
haps the Prosecutor may draw the Grand
Jury's attention to this matter. His
remedy is by civil proceeding, and
the Court knows of no law in this State
which authorizes person to keep
body as security for debt"
Judge. Noonan admitted that the pro-
ceeding was peculiar, but what was
Routh to do. and counsel argued with
considerable zeal for his client that the
Lockmans were to blame for the trou-
BILE.
"Well, the time of this Court cannot
be occupied in vent.lating the quarrels
of rival undertakers, and I have only
to say that in the interests of public
decency, if this matter is not at once
settled. it will be brought to the atten-
ion of the Grand jury" concluded the
Court. shutting off any further argu-
ment.
From the general talk in Bayonne,
Routh's conduct is severely criticised.
AS the official morgue keeper, he, they
say, thinks that gives him the right to
prepare bodies for burial without the
consent of the relatives, and it was an
outrage that young Lockmans body
should have been sent to the morgue,
where Mr.. Routh got in his fine work.
Ex-Judge Thomas F. Noonan will ad-
wise Routh to hand over the body, and
sue the father for his costs.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Jan. Is, 1896
Trainer Albert Yorkovitz, at the Bar
mum winter quarters, was attacked by
Indus, an immense Bengal tiger, yester-
day, and nearly lost his life. The trainer
was sweeping out the cage IN which
Indus and another big tiger, Frank, were
confined. He was in a STOPPING posture,
and just saw the huge paw of Indus ex-
tended towards him. With a trainers
instinct he dropped to the floor and tried
to roll through the opening at the bot
tom of the cage. He was almost too
late.
The claws of the big brute went
through his shirt and blouse and laeer-
ated his back severely. but the trainer
got away in time to save his life. Indus
attacked Keeper Scott in Danbury two
years ago, and lacerated him fearfully
before the keeper was rescued. Yorko-
vitz was attacked by another. tiger In
Boston during street parade last sum
mer and narrowly escaped with his life.

MINARDoW's SECOND FLIGHT.
A Once Prosperous Hoboken Com
tractor In Trouble WILL, Cradftorx

tractor In Trouble with Creditors.
Several years ago Albert Minardow
was a prominent contractor of Hoboken.
He was a son-in-law of Nicholas Goelz,
Superintendent of the North Hudson
County Railway Company, and through
Mr.. Goelz's influence, secured a num-
Der of large contracts which gave him
good financial standing. For the past
year or two he has neglected his business
and he became involved in several finan-
cial transactions which caused him a
few months ago to leave town rather
suddenly
For the sake of his wife and family
his creditors refused to prosecute his and
he was allowed to return to Hoboken,
and given a chance to square things.
While he was away he wrote a letter
to his wife from Chicago stating that he
had wandered away while suffering from
mental depression
Minardow, when he came home, set
tied in Union Hill and commenced life
anew. but with poor success. While re-
siding in Union he was harassed by
Saloonkeeper Michael O'Neill of Jefferson
and Newark streets, Hoboken, who two
years ago cashed check for him for $40
The check was drawn to Minardow's
order upon the First National Bank and
was signed by his father-in-law, Michael
Goelz. When O'Neill pi scented the check
at the bank he was informed that it was
forgery. ONeill threatened to have
Minardow arrested, but was induced to
be lenient with him and upon Minardow
promising to pay him the money within
few weeks after his return, he did not
prosecute him Minardow, however, had
not paid one penny of the $40 up to last
Friday, so O'Neill went before Justice
Rusch and had warrant issued for his
arrest Minardow got wind of it, and
he has again left Hoboken for unknown
parts.
