and Injuries a Wheelman

Arthur Wilson. whose home is at 11S
East Seventeenth street, was seriously in
jured at Eighth and Main street last night
by being run down by an unknown man,
who was driving fast horse attached to a
light buggy. Wilson was coming up town
awheel. and al Tenth street he passed the
buggy. The driver at once pulled in be-
hind the wheelman and whipped up his
horse. AT Eighth street Wilson was pock-
eted by two other vehicles, and the horse
behind him struck him and knocked him
down. The driver never stopped and the
buggy passed over both rider and bicycle.
The injured man was picked UP by other
wheelmen, who summoned the patrol wag-
on in which he was taken to the receiving
hospital. DIR. Hagan found that he had
sustained a number of cOntusions of the
scalp, besides a dozen or more body

A WATCH CONTROVERSY
DETECTIVE GOODMAN PLACED
IN A PECULIAR LIGHT
Pupke Makes Counter Statement and
Replevin Suit Is Instituted.
Complicated Case

There is every prospect of a "hot time"
at the meeting of the police commission
next Tuesday morning. at which time the
matter of the action of Detective Goodman
with reference to the watch claimed by
Herman Pupke will be heard. Goodman
made an explanation, which was published
in The Herald on Thursday morning, and
to this Pupke has made positive denial,
saying that it not only misstates facts, but
does not state all the facts If Pupke's
statement is true in some particulars he
seems to have the better of the detective
In the matter. 1t will be remembered that
the matter was before Justice Morrison
and that he decided that the watch be-
longed to Pupke. The latter starts with
the following quotation from the records
of the court. His statement is as follows:
The record entry of the criminal docket
page 71S, of Judge Morrison shows the fol-
lowing entry: March l, 1898. Hearing in
above matter set for 1:3O p. m. this day by
consent. At this 1870 p. m. all parties
claiming an interest in above property in

man Pupke and ordered turned over to
him. Thereupon the watch and works
were delivered to me and Mr.. Goodman re-
quested me to let him have them, to see
whether he could find the man who had
pawned it with Mrs. Ferner.
1T Is further untrue that l ever admitted
to him or any one else that did not own
the case, but it is true that he demanded
$3.50 from me for the reason as he said,
that the party who had pledged the watch
had only paid Mrs Ferner $3.50, and she
had loaned to him 81 upon it,"
AS he said in his explanation, Goodman
denied that he ever demanded one cent
from Pupke. The latter rendered him
$780, he says. This tender Goodman re-
fused and told the man to pay the money to
Mrs. Ferner if he desired to pay it at all,
which he did not advise him to do. Pupke
did not do this, but instead consulted an
attorney, who made a demand upon the
detective for the case as we'll as the move
ment, but this was refused. Goodman
denies that any money was paid to Mrs.
Ferner by the man who pawned the watch.
saying that If that man was known he
would be arrested. He admits that he adj
vised Pupke to settle on basis of $3.50, but
only because this would save him great
trouble.
The somewhat complicated case took
another turn yesterday when Goodman,
who had retained the case of the watch
was served with a summons in a replevin
suit instituted in Justice Young's court
for the recovery of the watch. He sur
rendered it and Pupke will again try to
prove his ownership of the property in that
court. If he succeeds it will settle the
matter, but what the result so far as Good
man is concerned will be can only be known
after the police commission gets through
with the matter.

own recognizance at the time Of her arrest,
promising to appear in court yesterday.
She was there hours before the time set
for the trial and when it was begun she
took great interest in the proceedings. The
child was accused of setting fire TO the
house Of her aunt with whom she lives,
but her explanation of the matter was that
she had built small bonfire which had
communicated to the house. She denied
all intentions of wrong-doing. There was
no evidence of malice against her and the
case was one in which no jury would con-
vict her. Justice Owens therefore dis
charged her.
