A TALE OF TWO CITIES.
Trials and TribuIatiOns of u Forest
City COnstabics.

Trials and TribuIatiOns Of u Forest
City COnstabics.
Forest City is the home of some con-
stables who deserve a reward. At l
o'clock this morning two of them came
to the central police station with pris-
oner and asked permission from Desk
Sergeant Robert ii. Deter to lock their
man up until this morning. The Off
GERS We're John Maxey and John Walsh:
the prisoner was Joseph Araganis, Of
Penn avenue, who is employed by Mat
thew Bros, of this city, as driver of an
oil wagon.
Joseph at one time boarded with Peter
Walsh. of Forest City. and forgot to
settle $15 of board bill. He was sub
poenaed to go to Montrose yesterday
as witness before the grand jury.
While he was waiting to be called to
give his testimony MaXey arrested him
on a warrant sworn out before Justice
of the Peace w. j. MaXey, Of Forest
City, a brother of the constable. The
charge was defrauding boarding
housekeeper
! The prisoner was brought to the
Montrose county Jail before having a
/ llctI tht "tttutl NouiNt hot ic-
ceive him without commitment. The
constable went before some justice of
the peace in Montrose and got a COM
mitment, although the law provides
that a defendant cannot be committed
without a hearing unless he valves a
hearing.
The constable took the prisoner and
the commitment to the sheriff of the
county and the sheriff put the paper
In his pocket and told the constable
to bring his man to Jail that it would be
all right. But when the prisoner was
brought back to Jail the warden still
refused. He was told the sheriff had
the commitment in his pocket, but that
was no use. 1t must be produced. The
prisoner was brought back to Forest
City and was given a hearing and in
default of bail was committed by the
| justice who issued the warrant.
The constable then took the train
for Scranton and got in here about 0
O'clock last night 1t took him four
hours to find the police station. He
will bring him back to Montrose Jail
this morning. A year ago a constable
from Forest City brought n prisoner to
Scranton on the way to Montrose, but
the latter escaped in the fog on lower
Lackawanna avenue.

SERIOUS STABBiNG AFFRAY.
Michael X konnacki ,OfPriccb Came
Near Losing His Life.

Michael Kannecki lies at his boarding
house in Priceburg with the marks of
seven knife thrusts in his body. Kan
nacki was in the saloon conducted by
George Siniora, on River street, Oily
phant. Saturday night, when two Hun
garians, without any provocation
jumped upon him.
One held stone: the other drew q
pocket knife and jabbed it into Kan
nacki's body. After the assault. the
two men left the saloon and medical
aid for the injured man was called. His
wounds bled profusely, and for several
hours after the assault 1t looked as If
another murder would be docketed at
the court house. Kannacki, however,
recovered sufficiently to be removed to
his boarding place.
The two assaulters were not known
to Kannacki. but a friend gave their
names to the police and the duo are now
in the county Jail. having been arrest
ed yesterday. Their names are An
drew Shutalk and Frank SpOolak.
Kannacki's condition is a hopeful one,
and last night when County Detective
Leyshon called upon him he was as
sured by the physician in charge that
the man would recover.
