we're before Judge Scott today charged with
otstructing the streets. Attorney Turner
who appeared for them entered q plea of
guilty. and asked for the imposition of the

are ignorant of the law, while others know
full well that they cannot keep their carts
at a given place for too long a time There
are some locations better than others, he
said, and the sales are so numerous that
the profits are large enough to justify the

J. Maloney found BlUomenberg and u
negro lying flut out in car. They we're

Bloonenherg brought his craftiness
into play. Raising his hands above
his head he at once, assuming a most
tragic manner, told the policemen that
he was glad he had met them, for the
negro on the train with him was wanted
in Philadelphia for numbering a girl
in that city, and the way he knew it
was because the fellow had told him all
about 1t OIL the train.
The story was told HU straight and
with such earnestness and as the police
know that colored woman was the
victim, until they reached headquarters
with the pair the negro was regarded
as the fugitive wanted. Still, when
Chief Dolan in searching Bloomenberg
came across among other things his
brothers. business card, the family
name, together with the general appear
nnce of the prisoner, cinched matters,
and the Philadelphia authorities yes
terday morning were informed OF the
capture.
Detective Tate and Special Policemen
DUFFY and Wieshafter came to viii
mington Sunday morning. Bloomen-
berg was identified as the suspected
murderer OF Emma Deery. Before
leaving this city lloomenberg went
before Justice of tho peace and, after
signing written Confession, waived
his right to extrahitioh and returned to
Philadelphia at 1 o'clock Sunday, and
was locl1ed up in tho City Hall.

Hanna agents, when secured have re-
