Uncle Sam Lodges Two Notable
Prisoners in Huds0n,s Jail.

Deputy United States Marshal Murray
lodged two very important government
prisoners in the County Jail yesterday
evening. They are said 10 be the leaders
OF a dangerous gang of swandlers who
have been operating all over the county.
Three other member of the gang are
in custody in Chicago.
The prisoners here are William H. Nc
Clure and DR.. James Craig. Their con-
federates in Chicago are James F. Nc
Clure, a brother of William, J. L. Tall
man and William Thimas. Deputy
United States Marshal Murray made the
arrest here ON a warrant issued by
United States Commissioner Linsley
Rowe. Murray found Mcclure at Toms
River yesterday morning and brought
him up to the JAIL. He then went TO Sea-
side Park and captured DR.. Craig. The
specific charge against them is using the
United States mails for fraudulent pur-
poses.
The concern carried on a big business
and it is alleged that its profits aggre-
gated at Least $4,000. The headquarters
business IN New York. They operated a
variety OF schemes.
The most successful was a fake lottery
in Kansas City, Mo. Afterwards they adj
vertised themselves as being connected
with tine Louisiana lottery. Every time
they adopted a new scheme they adopted
a new firm name. Sometimes it was
Paterson & Co, than Craig & Co., and
Thimas & Co. The New York branch
was operated in the name of J. w. Nor
gan & Co. Their most recent venture was
a bucket shop in Chicago, where they
dealt in bogus mining stocks. Any Gus
toner who trusted his money to them
for investment was sure to be wiped out,
One Of their most elaborate Undertakings
was the establishment of a mining ex-
change.
The prisoners were taken before U. S.
Commissioner Rowe.

HObokcn,s Brutal Police and Re-
corder Lock Up an Injured Man.

William H. Griffin, "a years of age, a
Waterman, living at No. 81 Mcpherson
place, Jersey City, was arraigned this
morning in the Recorders court, Hobo
ken. He was in a weak and trembling
condition. He was charged with being
drunk. The officer who arrested him tes-
titled that he had found Griffin on the
sidewalk at Fifth and Garden streets yes
terday afternoon drunk and with a cash
on his forehead.
Griffin said in a weak voice that he had
a sick son and was going for a doctor
when he was overcome by the heat and
fell, cutting his forehead. The Recorder
paid no attention to Grifin's plea. He
growled out his usual stern formula: -
You We're drunk. You still show the eff
fects of it. Three dollars or ten days"
Griffin was led out. 1.

NO SUNDAY BASEBALL
Chief Murphy I~nterferes with
the Game at Com
munipaw.

The Law and Order League yesterday
accomplished another victory. They sue
ceeded in stopping Sunday baseball play
ing on the Communipaw flats, near the
tracks of the Contra Railroad.
Some time g the Law and Order
League met at the Bergen Reformed
Church and denounced several things
which they deemed detrimental to the
proper observance of the Lords Day.
Among the things which they claimed
had a demoralizing effect on the morals
of the young men, and which kept them
from their Sunday School class, was
baseball.
The playing of the game at the Duncan
avenue grounds at the corner of Duncan
and West Side avenues, was attacked
most .forcibly. Here it was claimed that
of a Sunday afternoon hundreds of young
men who ought to be in Sunday School
were c-ongregated to witness a game of
These young men must be brought to
Sunday School, the diyines decided, and
the only method of bringing them there
was by stopping baseball on Sunday.
At the meeting of the League in the
Bergen Reformed Church, a resolution
~denouncing baseball playing on Sunday,
and urging Chief Murphy to take action
in the matter, was adopted and forwarded
to the Chief. Shortly after the receipt
of the resolutions by Chief Murphy, some
OF the residents of the Heights drew up
a set of resolutions and forwarded them
to Captain Cox of the Seventh precinct.
The tenor of these was the same as those
sent Chief Murphy, namely, urging the
stopping of ball playing.
Captain Cox promised he would have
it stopped and it was. The divines We're
happy, but it is not known whether the
attendance of young men at the Sunday
schools increased.
Having succeeded in their endeayors as
far as the Duncan avenue games were
concerned, the League turned their at
tention to the Communipaw flats. The re-
suit of their efforts was an order issued
by Chief Murphy On Saturday forbidding
any ball playing there yesterday. When
the usual number of habitues gathered
at the Central grounds yesterday after
noon they found, much to their disgust,
three policemen stationed there to pre-
vent any playing.
An effort will be made by the lovers of
the national game in this city to have
Chief Murphy rescind his order, and a
petition to that effect will shortly be
circulated.

GEOLOGICAL FREAK.
Struck a Bed of Concrete While
Making Excavations.
rial to the Jerscu Ctr Neps

NEWARK. Aug. s, 1896.-While making
excavations for a sewer in Chester ave-
nue. laborers in the employ of Contractor
saveria Rizzolo haye come across some
thing of a geological phenomenon for
this city. About5feur feet below the sur
face of the earth a very hard substance
was encountered.
At first sight it appeared to be a bed of
gravel, but it was so hard that it took
powerful blows from a pick or crowbar
to make any impression On it. There was
no telling how deep the peculiar stratum
was, but after much labor the men broke
through it at a depth of four inches.
City Surveyor Adams attention was
called to the peculiar formation. He made
an investigation and found that the layer
was composed of sandstone pebbles most
ly, bound firmly by a sort of crystallized
s~ilicate.
The whole mass had the appearance of
a concrete bed that had been laid and
covered over with another four feet of
earth after it had become firm. AS far as
could be seen where excavations had been
made, the formation extended over the
whole Immediate sectiSn OF Woodside.
Along the route of the sewer, which
extends through. drat5nplstreet. Chester
avenue and Erie place, To- Gully road, the
soil is very gravelly, and a large number
of powders have been dug up by the
men.
The trench is being excavated to a
depth of nineteen feet. and the street lew
el was lowered about twelve feet, when
It was cut through The powders in some
instances are found one on top of the
other and some of them are quite large,
Since the mineral concrete has been
ound the theory Is advanced that the
gravel and powders were washed to that
spot In the lo~ng-gone-by glacial period.
How the stratum of concrete was formed,
though. Is a mystery.
The presence Of the material increases
the cost and trouble of making excava-
lions and yesterday Mr.. Rizzola notified
