GANG OF TRAMPs RAIDED.
Captain Newton Captures So m of the
ssRlack Crowd.

Numerous complaints by residents Of
the western slope of the Hill have been
made to Police Captain Newton of the
Oakland avenue station about a gang of
young loafers who congregate on Ton
nele avenue, in the vicinity of st. Peters
Cemetery and the BLACK Bridge 1t is
said that pedestrians having occasion to
use the thoroughfare were greatly an
noyed by the requests. and in some cases
the demands, of the hoodlums for beer
money. Severalscases were also reported
where passers-by who had refused to
give none were held pp' and it was
k from them. As q rule. however,
people generally complied with the re-
quest of the loafers sooner than force
trouble with the gang by refusing.
The location is one of the most dreary
ant lonesome in the entire city and is
much f%requented by the wandering ho-
boes who come in on the Erie and Della
ware Railroads. They leave the freight
trains at this point rather than risk ar
rest by going to the lower city.
The police nave frequently raided
camps established by these tramps in
the neighborhood, and dozens of them
nave been sent to Snake Hill, but APP
parently with no beneficial result for
their places were soon occupied by 9TH
ers.
Tonnele avenue is the main road lead
ng to the County Road, which runs to
Snake Hill, and consequently most of
the vehicles and pedestrians bound for
the county institutions pass over the
BLACK Bridge" on which these gangs
congregate. These people, too, complain
of the noya of the tramps.
Captain Newton determined to rid his
precinct Of these objectionable citizens
and accordingly at about eight O'Clock
last night he Instructed Sergeant Charles
McGuinness. Detective H G. Keenan, and
Patrolman Bonspere to arrest all the
loiterers they found in the neighborhood
of the bridge.
The officers, who were in civilians dress,
left the patrol wagon about a block from
the cemetery and proceeded on foot to
the bridge. They were not recognized
and succeeded in corralling three of the
objectionable characters.
AT the Oakland avenue police station
the men who We're arrested were booked
as James Reilly of Hoboken, John Mahan
of Port Jervis and James Murphy of
Paterson. The police claim to recognize
the fellow giving the name of Reilly as
an old offender.

those provided for in sections 20 and "a
