SUTTON'S HORSE
is RECOVERED.
With the Thieves, Who are Caught
at Bridgeport, Gloucester
County.

Daniel Sutton has recovered the
horse and buggy which was stolen
from West avenue last Saturday
night. The animal, much abused
and nearly dead from overdriving, is
at Bridgeport, Gloucester county,
where it was captured in possession
of the thieves late Monday night.
Constable Lore took charge of the
horse stealing case Monday morning
and at once notified the authorities of
the various towns. Shortly after mid
night, Tuesday morning, Officer Kin
kle, who was in the City Hall, re-
ceived message from Bridgeport
that the animal and thieves were cap
tured. Early Tuesday morning Con-
stable Lore went to Bridgeport and Sc
cured the fellows who stole the horse,
bringing them to Bridgeton and re-
manding them to Jail.
Lore says that the people of Bridge
port have no use for horsethieves, and
when these fellows were caught
crowd of irate people made
an earnest attempt to secure one O.
the fellows and threatened to lynch
him. The officers successfully de-
Tended the man and locked him up.
Lore further says that the horse
had been hard driven and was in bad
condition when it was stopped. The
animal would probably have been
killed had it been much futher urged.
The fellows who were arrested gave
their names as Charles Shapeley and
Robert Hettel. They said they were
from Philadelphia, and acknowledged
stealing the horse. In fact, they are
frank enough to say that they came
here from Bridgeport with the inten-
tion of stealing a rig.
One of the fellows looks about nine
teen years old and the other about
twenty three. One of the young men
had been in Bridgeton for four days
looking around while his pal came
down here ON Saturday. The young
men are evidently professionals.
They will likely get long term IN
State Prison.

Missing VineIand Girl.

Vineland, Aug. 24.-Miss Bertha
Walker, a fifteen year old adopted
daughter of Mrs. Walker, of Almond
road, disappeared from her home sew

and upon her arrival in town she
sold her bicycle for 81, and with that
small sum of money, it is thought,
left for Philadelphia.

by President Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers of America and the presidents
of the three anthracite coal districts to
the operators requesting joint confer
ence was made public here to-day. The
communication says:
1T is needless to say that the members
and officers of the United Mine Workers
Of America are exceedingly DESTROYS of
averting strikes and the suffering incident
thereto; and it is the opinion of the Of
flcers whose names are attached to this
communication that if the representatives
Ct the anthracite coal carrying railroads
would join with us in holding confer
ence an amicable solution could be found;
and we would, therefore, request that If
the suggestions contained herein regard
ing a conference meet with your approval
you notify us at Scranton, when we will
gladly call upon you in the city of New
York or at any other place which would
suit your convenience.
I'VE feel that consideration for the vast
number of men, women and children de-
pendent upon the coal industry for live
iihood should impel you to adopt a con-
