CARRIED TO HARRISBURG.
Fight for Eppstein's Freedom Taken
to the Capital.

When the hrice-adjourned hearing
in the Eppstein habeas corpus case
was resumed yesterday morning, Chief
of Police Gurrell produced a telegram
from Harrisburg showing that the
governor of Illinois had made applica-
tion for eXtradition papers, and con-
trary TO the expectations of Mr.. Vida
ver attorney for Eppstein, Judge
Gunster decided to hold the matter
over until Harrisburg had acted on
the requisition.
Mr.. Vidaver was not at all non
plussed. He had anticipated such an
outcome and to the great surprise of
the police displayed a telegram ac-
knowledging the receipt of his pro-
test against the granting of the papers
and announcing that a hearing had
been arranged for Tuesday next.
Eppsteins bail was continued in the
interim. Assistant City Solicitor NJ. j..
Walsh represents the chief of police in
the proceedings.

WAS A NARROW ESCAPE.
Car Cuts Fender from An
other That Crossed Its Path.

There was a very narrow escape
from a street car catastrophe on Null
berry street hill last evening. at els
o'clock. A Petersburg car ran away
at Monroe avenue, through the fall
ure of the brakes to work and dashed
down the hill.
A heavily-loaded Laurel Hill car
was going up Madison avenue and was
part way over the crossing when the
motorman saw the runaway car. He
reversed the power and the front of
his car was just clearing the cross
ing when the runaway whizzed by
carrying the fender of the Laurel Hill
car with II.
The runaway left the tracks at the
curve on Jefferson avenue and came
to a stop after cutting ruts in the
new Mulberry street pave for about
twice its own length.
There was only one passenger
aboard, woman, and she was pre-
vented from jumping by the conductor
who climped up to the seat she was
occupying when he saw her rising to
her feet. forced her to sit down and
held her until the car came to stand
still.

Montana with Company C, of the Sec
ond United States infantry. his sec
ond term of enlistment expired when
his regiment reached Juragua, Cuba,

ers and afterwards carried San Juan
Hill. He was one of the comparatively
few lucky ones to escape both bullets

not gruff. The deep-set eyes retain
their youthful brillance. The stu
