TORTURED FOR MONEY.
Thieves Burn Hotelkeeper with
Hot Irons and Secure S3OO.

Sharon, April 27.-A story of torture
and robbery has been reported to the
Mercer county authorities, which has
aroused public Indignation and set the
officers of the law upon the trail of the
perpetrators.
On the road between Pardoe and
Balm, in Mercer county, is a small
tavern known as the Hewitt house, Of
which Lewis Hewitt, well known in the
county, is the proprietor. 1t is a
lonely place with but few dwellings,
widely scattered, in the vicinity.
Early this morning masked men, said
TO be three in number, broke into the
tavern. They carried burglars tools
and appeared to be acquainted with
the locality.
Making their way to the proprietor's
room they. broke open the door, and,
dragging him from his bed, demanded
his money. He refused their demand,
whereupon they securely bound him
and heating irons over lamp, tor
tured him until in his pain he told
them where it was concealed.
One Of them remained on guard while
the remaining two ransacked the place
and secured over $500. They then left
the hotel and have not since been
heard of.
The authorities have thus far been
unable to locate Mr.. Hewitts assail-
ants.
1t Is said that a number of suspicious
characters We're seen in the vicinity of
Pardoe yesterday, ana the supposition
is that the men guilty of the outrage
were among the number.
The place at which the tavern is To-
Gated is dcsolate spot, particularly
at night, and knowing this, the flends
We're able to accomplish their purpose
without fear of interruption.

ZEMITIS ACQUITTED.
Result OF His Second Trial for Murder.
Joseph GreemOre Sentenced TO Three
Years in the Peuitentiary.

Wilkcs-Barre, April 27.-The jury in
the Zemitis murder case, returned to
court at IL o'clock this morning, and
handed in IL verdict of not guilty. Judge
Savage, of Sunbury, was on the bench.
Iemitis felt good over the verdict,
and laughed and bowed to everybody.
AT the first trial OF the case, Zemitis
was found guilty of murder in the first
degree, and this was the second trial
of the case.
In Judge Woodward's court, Anthony
EOmanOfs, Joseph Chenofski, Joseph
Bagatski and Voltus Slewitsky, four of
the alleged conspirators in the recent
general Jail delivery, We're placed on
trial on charges of robbery, assault,
etc, preferred by Anna Kanausas. The
prisoners, it is alleged, entered the
home of the plaintiff at Port Bowkley
at daybreak one morning in the latter
part of December last. Finding no one
at home except Mrs. Kanausas, who is
so years of age and looks 20, and her
19-year-old daughter. the men seized
and bound them and ransacked the
house, carrying away a large sum of
money, which represented the hard
earned savings of the woman's hus-
band and sons. The women made a
desperate fight and were brutally beat
en-, the old woman being badly used up.
The prisoners were this morning con-
Victed of robbery, and their trial on
the other charges was at once taken up.
Joseph Greemore, charged by Julia
Cunningham with assault and battery
and attempt to rape, was convicted
this morning, and Judge Lynch at once
sentenced the prisoner to three years
in the penitentiary.

KNOCKOUT THIEF
CAPTURED AT LAST
Charles Still Who Drugged and Plum
dered TO Be Extradited.
HE is RECOGNIZED BY A TOURIST
The Fugitive stupefied and Relieved
Man of $780, Convicted, Fled,
and Was Captured by Chance.
Recognized at a Scotch Fair.

York, April 27.-One of the most in
teresting cases of the chance detection
of a criminal wandering in foreign
lands, and presumably safe from prose-
Cution, was brought out this evening
by the receipt of an Associated Press
Cablegram from London saying that
Charles Still, wanted in York, Pa, for
a crime, was today examined under an
extradition warrant i'm the famous old
Bow street police court. A telegram
from Washington, p. c., adds that "the
secretary Of state has asked the Brit
ssh government for Stills eXtradition
on a charge of receiving stolen money"
As to the character of the crime, the
above messages ahe mistaken but as
to the arrest and .extradition they are
accurate, and Chief of Police White,
of this city, who has the extradition
papers, says he will at once leave for
London to bring back Still, who is
wanted as a notorious knockout"
robber.
STILLS MOST DARING DEED.
The crime which brought Still to grief
in this far-off land was that of admin
istering stupefying drugs to young
man named Herbert Slough for the
purpose Of robing him OF 1855. The
evidence brought out at the trial, which
was held during the second week of the
August quarter sessions of 1895, was to
the effect that Still met Slough in the
Colonial hotel bar room on the night of
October 4, 1894, and after taking him
to several places in a cab drugged him,
and while he was sleeping on a lounge
in Dolls hotel on North street, re-
1eved him of the money.
The accused man was convicted, but
on the Friday night previous to the
opening of the October sessions. at
which court Still was commanded to
appear for sentence, he skipped out,
and until recently it was not known
where he was.
RECOGNIZED AT A SCOTCH FAIR.
STILL who felt perfectly secure from
apprehension with an ocean between
him and prison, was travelling through
England and Scotland with all the ira
ditional assurance of an itinerant book
agent-for he was one. He even dared
to appear in such public places as fairs
in the country towns, and it was at
one of these assemblages, near Glas-
gov, that a man from York, wander
ing around seeing the sights. recognized
Still. Communication was at once
opened with authorities here, and the
result is that after the employment of
much red tape the knock out" man is
to be brought back to York and ins-
prisoned. His crime entities him, if ne
is tried upon no other accusation-and
there is at least one other against him
to a maximum Imprisonment in the
Jail or penitentiary of eight years.

HIS WIDOW ACQUITTED.
Jury Decides Richard McCuIIough's
Death Was Accidental.

Pittsburg, April 27.-Mrs. Catharine
Mccullough was today tried and ac-
quilted on a charge of having killed her
husband, Richard Mccullough. The
killing was accidental, as the testimony
showed, Mccullough, as night watch
man, carried a revolver and his wife
carried one when she took his meals
to him.
One evening Mccullough took both
weapons to the mine to clean them. He
returned from duty the next morning
and his wife asked for her revolver. 1t
would not work right and she began to
snap it when the weapon discharged,
the bullet killing Mccullough.
Mrs, Mccullough testified in her own
behalf that she had quarreled with her
husband and that arrangements had
been made for her to return to Scot
land.

TRACTION COMPANY WINS.
Judge Wickham Declares a Chester
Ordinance Void.

Pittsburg, April FIN the Superior
court Judge Wickham filed an opin-
ion in the appeal from the Chester
county courts by the Chester Traction
company.
The appeal involved the validity of
an ordinance requiring the Traction
company to sprinkle its tracks for a
distance of three feet six inches from
the middle of the road so that no dust
would be raised by the cars.
For each violation the company was
compelled to pay $25 per day, and for
continued violations the city would be
permitted to stop the cars.
Judge Wickham says that the pOr-
tiOn Of the ordinance which authorizes
the stoppage of cars is clearly unrea-
sonable and SO oppressive as to be void
The court concludes the ordinance is
void.
