A MAN IN THE CASE.
Women Engage in Street Fight
Over n Man.


The unusual scene of two very re-
spectable-appearing women engaged in
a rough-and- tumble fight was present.
ed to pedestrians on LaCkawanna ave-
nue., SATURDAY. afternoon.
A large woman, accompanied by a
little girl, was walking along the ave-
nue., near the Penn avenue intersection,
when a small-sized but fiery looking
woman suddenly was seen to grab at
her throat with one hand and rain
blows at her face with the other.
The larger woman grappled with her
assalant and for about a minute there
was one Of the liveliest struggles the
avenue had ever seen. When Patrol
man Matthews arrived the smaller wo-
man, who had started the melee, was
pinned against a telegraph pole and the
larger woman was viciously humping
her head against the pole. There were
cuts and bruises and blood galore,
principally on the smaller woman, and
both women presented a rather dilapi-
| dated appearance in the matter of
toilet
1t all came out at Alderman Millar's
office. The larger woman was Mrs.
Mary williams, of Hoboken, N. j., the
smaller woman, Mrs. Rose Arnold, of
| this city. Mrs. Arnold accuses Mrs.
| Williams of having stolen her hus-
| bands affections and says that she dis
| covered letters a few weeks ago that
| prove the truth of her assertion.
| Mrs. Williams denies the accusation
| She says she came to this city to at
| tend funeral and was on her way to
catch a train home when she was set
upon by Mrs. Arnold.
The man in the case was present at
| the hearing and evinced no little solici-
tude for his wife's enemy. The parties
gave bail for further hearing.

When the organization is effected the
company will offer its services to the

had taken no part in the discussion
arose and said as he started for the
door, "There are fifty men down stairs
that will come up now"
He went down to tell them of the
action of the meeting and just after
adjournment had been made the crowd
that had been down stairs came filing
in the door. When they learned that

and indicated that they would be on

Frank Komewski the alleged doctor,
who is charged by the coroners jury
impanelled to investigate the cause of
the death of Mrs. John Gendzilwycz,
of River street, with attempting to per.
form a criminal operation resulting in
her death, and who, fearing arrest, left
the city, is now located in Detroit,
Mich, where he has started to prac-
tice medicine.
A recent issue of the "Swocada," a
Polish weekly, published in that city,
devoted much space to Komewski, he
evidently having figured in some un-
pleasant episode in medical circles
there.
His career here was given at length,
and special reference was made to
the charge now hanging over him here.
It was stated that his stay there would
be short lived, as in that city there
are several Polish physicians of repute,
and they. the article stated, will COM
pei Komewsk to pass a state exam
ination or leave the city.
komewski left this city March z,
four days before the sitting of the cor
oner's jury. He was notified by Cor
oner Longstreet to be present at the
meeting and produce evidence that he
was privileged to practice medicine.
The day he left town it was determined
to arrest him and hold him pending
an investigation. County Detective
Leyshon went TO Komewski's office, on
Elm street, with the warrant, and
found the place vacant.

This information has been received
