MAY ARREST
MERGER !
Rumor That France Will Prosecute
Ex-War Minister.
WOULD NOT FLEE FROM ARREST.

The Eclair. the Newspaper That Pub
lished the "Canaille de Do Docu-
ment, WIN Be Brought TO Task with
view TO Discovering the Author.
has decided to prosecute The Eclair
for the publication OF the "Canaille de
D." document. one of the four doc
uments secretly communicated TO the
Dreyfus court martial OF 1894 and which
has been shown not 10 refer TO Cap
tain Dreyfus at all. The object OF the
severn -nent is to discover who COM
municated It to The Eclair. The as
sumption is that the communication
was made by Colonel Du Patty de Clam,
or possibly by General Gonse. The
publication occurred three years ago.
but under the law prosecution can be
maintained at any time during the fol-
lowing five years. The persons Sc
lected for prosecution are a contrib
utor to The Eclair and NJ. Hassard.
director of The Patrie. The former
will be charged with having printed
a perversion of the "Canaille de D."
document, as that beast OF a Drey-
fus is really becoming too exacting."
IL Is rumored that the government
has also decided to arrest General
Mercier, but the rumor is not con-
firmed. Saturday evening a report was
in circulation that General Mercier had
fed to the Island Of Jersey, but this
story proved to be without foundation.
Yesterday the gendarmes were still
posted outside the residence Of General
st. German, military commander of
this district, with whom General Mer-
cier has been staying during the trial.
Their presence indicated that he was
still there, and in reply to questions
they declared that they had not seen
him leave the grounds. No one who
has studied his character and methods
believes that General Mercier would
flee at the prospect of arrest. He has
altogether too much grit in his COM
position.

PROPERTY in DISPUTE.
Anthony Flynn, of Stone wall Fame.
Figures Prominently.

An interesting law suit, which originated
nearly quarter Of a century ago, will likely
result over property on North White
street. The principal is Anthony A. Flynn,
Sr., Of South Emerich street, who figured
very prominently in the "Stone Wall" case
against the Borough two years ago. The
facts of the case are as follows:
Some thirty years ago Mr.. Flynn, became
one Of Shenandoah's first settlers Shortly
after locating here he purchased plot Of
ground, 30x15O feet, at Ill and 1l3 North
White street. The purchase was made from
the Schaefer estate. He erected two two
story frame dwellings on the premises and
the owner resided there for period of ten
years. During his residence Sherih's levy
was made on the property to satisfy an execu.
tion brought by George Jacoby, Of town.
The claim amounted to $40.
Among the bidders at the sale was Charles
Higgins, who was there in favor Of its owner,
and who purchased the property for Ss5 Mr..
Jacobys bid, who issued the execution, was
$50. This took place in the year1s77. After
the sale the matter was dropped until Mr..
Flynn decided to remove to Wisconsin His
residence there covered period of two years,
when he emigrated back to town. At the
Nluio VI MS ItuluNdl lEuul loWn lut property
was drawing rental Of $40 per month,
which Mr. Higgins was authorized to collect
until such time that it amounted TO $50 This
amount was in payment of the money used
to purchase the property and FOR debt due
Mr. Higgins.
The deed for the property was placed in the
hands of Mr.. Higgins by Mr.. Flynn for
safety. Mr.. Higgins continued to collect the
rents and upon his death the rent was claimed
by the Higgins estate until few days ago
when Mr., Flynn took possession of the
property and nailed the doors and windows
This was done by authority of Anthony A.
Flynn, Jr., and his counsel, George J. Wad-
linger, of Pottsville. The property involved
was transferred to the son twenty six years
ago when he was but two years of age.
Last Tuesday Flynn, Sr., took a similar
stand on the property as he did on the stone
wall, by removing load of furniture to the
building and taking possession of the
property. He says he is awaiting any un.
pleasant complications that may arise over
landlords rights as to the property and IL
prepared to meet any emergencies that may
occur. A long litigation will likely follow a,
to the ownership of the property.

After the Holiday Trade.

The county institute has been fixed for
October, but the date does not please the
business men of Pottsville, where the insti-
tute will be held. They have started a
movement to change the date to December
18th, with the expectation that they would
thus reap the cream Of the Christmas trade,
so far as the teachers are concerned. In this
the agitators will be disappointed Supt.
Weiss says Il is too late to make change, as
all arrangements with instructors and amuse-
ment attractions have been made for the for
mer cate. So our friends of the county seat
must accept the inevitable.
