MORE qRAMPS TAKEN
Elizabeth Police Raid Pennsyl-
vania Freight Cars and
Capture Thirty-fve.
Special to the jersey CITY Ne,cs.

ELIZABETH, Dec. 10, 1S96.-A squad Of
the Elizabeth police last night made an
exciting raid on freight trains on the
Pennsylvania Railroad at the Grant ave-
nue. signal house, Upper Railway. and
captured thirty-ive tramps who were on
the cars.
The police were accompanied by Detec-
tive McNally Of the railroad and a num-
Der of special men, who. with drawn elubs
and revolvers, boarded the trains, which
were stopped for the purpose. and seized
the men. some of whom were in box cars
and others on gondolas. Many of the
tramps resisted and attempted to escape.
The tramps. who ranged in age from
sixteen to forty years, were driven into
the signal station and held under guard
until after midnight, when a special train
was made up from Amboy Junction, and
they were brought to Elizabeth and
locked up in police headquarters.
Revolyers, knive and a miscellaneous
collection Of other weapons were found
on them. When formed in line they pre-
scented a formidable appearance. They
hailed from all parts of the civilized
world. Not a few of them were defiant
and dared the police to find anything
against them on which they could be
held. They Will be held until the rail-
road officers make specific charges
against them
The raid was made In order to zap
ture the men who recently attacked a
freight train crew and robbed them be-
tween Railway and New Brunswick and
the conductor.
1t is expected that the men who at
tackled Mrs. j. E. Febrey near her horne
on Mary street last night and after
throwing her cape over her head robbed
her of her p~ocketbook and fed are In the
lot.
Mrs. Febrey had just alighted from a
trolley car and had reached within fifty
feet Of her gate when her assailants. who
had followed her. grabbed her by the
threat, choking her almost into inseusibn-
ity. She was thrown to the ground. One
of the men rifed her pocket and se-
cured her pocketbook, while the other told
her that he would choke her to death If
she did not stop her struggles.
The men then fed. leaving their victim
nearly dead. AS soon as she could. Mrs.
Fehrey pulled the cape from her head and
called for help, when neighbors arrived
and carried her to her home. Her assail-
ants escaped. The pocketbook contained
but l5o. The front door key Of Mrs. Feb
rey's house was in the pocketbood. and a
guard was placed about the house all
night.

OPINION DIVIDED
ConnalI and Wilson WIN Have a
Strong Backing.

As the time approaches for the boxing
entertainment of the Blue Front Athletic
Club, to be held next Monday night at

and opinion is evenly divided among the
sports Of the city regarding the result
of the battle between Bobby Wilson and
Eddie Connell for the featherweight
championship Of New Jersey. They are
acknowledged by all to be the cleverest
men in their class and it will be a hard
matter to pick the winner before the men
enter the ring. Both are as clever as
they. were two years ago when they
fought the memorable draw in this city,
and 1t would not be asurprise to have the
decision divided in the coming meeting.
They are in the best of snaps and neither

city and Peck Barry of the Lenox A. c.,
which will precede the regular event.
