WRIT OF REPLEVIN SECURED.
Mrs. Rodney Makes Another Effort TO
Secure Some OF Her Property.

Mrs. Josephine Rodney secured
writ of replevin yesterday to recover
possession of six tons of hay, a sad
die and horse, which she alleges are
unlawfully in the possession of her
husband, John Rodsey, of Elmhurst.
For years the Rodneys lived on a
farm at Elmhurst, but some time ago
they quarrelled and separated and
Mrs. Rodney began proceedings to Sc
cure a divorce. Both of the Rodneys
are well advanced in years and Mrs.
Rodney now resides with grown chill
dren on River street, this city. Two
weeks ago Mrs. Rodney went to their
home in Elmhurst and loading their
household goods on wagons started for
this city with them.
The husband learning Of this gave
chase and reaching this city before the
goods, secured warrant and Con-
stable and had the loads of furniture
seized as they entered the city. AL
derman Howe, before whom the case
was tried, directed that the goods be
taken back to Elmhurst and the charge
of larceny preferred by the husband
was then withdrawn.
Mrs. Rodney now makes another ef-
fort to secure some Of the goods, of
which she says she is the owner.

The st. Louis Westliche Post is the
leading German daily of the Mississippi
valley, and one of the few great Ger
man newspapers in the United States.
Established in 1857, it soon passed in
to the hands of DR.. Emil Preetorius
and the Hon. Carl Schurz. For 40
years the Westlche Post has shown
the most effective devotion to honor
able and progressive ideas.
Edward Preetorius, business manager
and treasurer, is a man of distinction
throughout the southwest, and is known
to many thousands in other portions
of the country for his broad business
methods, and for the commanding in
iluence of his journal in national, state
and city politics.

THE TRUE BILLS.
The grand jury yesterday returned
true bills on fourteen counts against
Charles 7. Hull, the defaulting cashier
of the First National bank Of Athens,
Bradford county. EmbeZZlement and
falsifying returns are the principal
charges. True bills were also found
against Austin Gibbons, Patrick Cava-
naugh, John Molaski, Michael Smith
and George Struback, of Luzerne coun-
ty, charged with violating the revenue
laws; Mrs. Mike Synak, of Duryea,
charged with forging a money order,
and William r. Seifred, of Snyder
county, charged with sending obscene
matter through the mails. An ignored
bill was returned in the case of Joseph
Scarbel, of Carbon county, charged
with passing a flash" five dollar bill.

HER REPUTATION DAMAGED.
Mrs. Barry Asks II Healing Balm OF
Two Thousand Dollars.

Mrs Margaret Barry. of Richmon-
dale. says that Henry Martin, of the
same place, has injured her reputation
to the extent of $4,000, and she wants
damages in that sum. A suit for the
purpose of recovering that amount was
begun yesterday for her by Attorney
James Mahon.
Mrs. Barry, in her declaration, alleges
that on March 2l 1898, Martin accused
her Of keeping a 'bawdy. house. and
being guilty or various criminal acts
All Of WHICH she. declares are base
falsehoods.

DUy IV btVICi n u It TsII OH aug,
n, 1897, Lysle Button and his wife came
into the store and purchased a pair of
children's shoes, for which the husband
gave in payment a fifty-cent piece.
After they had gone the clerk discov-
cred that the money was spurious and
placed 1t in separate compartment of
the till, intending to call his employers
attention to it.
Storekeeper Doyle took up the thread
OF the story here, telling that the But
tons came back while the clerk was
away and made a purchase of him,
paying eighty-five cents on account
and receiving credit for the remainder.

to have the witness t&Gen from the
stand. Judge Burlington ruled that
the point was well taken, but in this
case, where there was an evident pos
sibility of convicting an innocent man,
he would prefer justice to law techni-
Calities and admit the evidence
The witness then went on to tell that
he had given his cousin, Lysle, five bad
half-dollars early in August, 1897, IN
payment of a debt, which he had owed
to him since the night Of July 4. He
got the money from Baker, who was
concerned with him in the Lake Carey
transaction.
The defendant was then called to the
stand and testified that he had never
suspected that the money he had was
spurious. He told of how he came by
it, as previously described, and de-
tailed the visits to Doyle's store, his
arrest and the occurrences in the
squires office. At his fathers sug-
gestion he swore out a warrant for ST.
mon Buttons arrest.
Character testimony was given by
w. f. Compton, postmaster at Spring
Vile; oliver Squires. merchant of
and jury commissioner of Susquehanna
county; Herman Stark, of Springville;
Frank Park. miller at Springville, and
jeremiah Stephens. ex-county COM
missioner of Susquehanna county.
They all were acquainted with Lysle
Button and knew him to be a good,
honest, industrious young man.
CLOSING ADDRESSES.
The closing addresses were made by
Mr.. Dawson for the defense and Mr..
Heiner for the government. Judge
Burlington made a charge that was not
unfavorable to the defendant and In
very short time the jury returned with
a verdict of not guilty.
When the announcement was made
by Clerk Lindsay, all the Buttons and
Springvillians burst forth into a cheer,
and some of the more enthusiastic ones
continued clapping their hands Tor
some time. Judge Burlington laughed
heartily at the outbreak.

Mr.. Soper, attorney for Duck, tried
