HABEAS
CORPUS
May be Resorted to In Case of Mary
Daley.
proffered Bondsmen Rejected by
the Magistrate.

Habeas corpus proceedings are
talked of in the case of Mary Daley,
who is in jail upon the charge of hav-
ing conducted house of disrepute in
Salem. Some weeks ago she was ar
rested on that charge>but succeeded
in giving bond of $500. She re. en-
gagged in the business and was arrested
again last week. She offered to give
bond of 81 900 with her attorneys, NJ
G. List and his partner as sureties but
Squire Gordon rejected the bond upon
the grounds that the proffered bonds
men had no real estate. The grounds
for the proposed habeas corpus pre-
ceedings, however, is that there is
some defect in the complaint, upon
which the warrant was issued against
her.
Attorney List made the application
for habeas corpus today to Judge
Jonn w. mason at Eairmont. 1t Il
upon the ground that the bail asked
is excessive. 1t is understood that
the prosecuting attorney agreed to
the bail being fixed at $500, but Mr..
List thinks that amount is too high.
An order in the case is expected from
Judge Mason this evening or tomor.
row but there is as yet no indication
what the nature of the order will be.
The latest in the case is that Mr..
List consulted Judge Mason yesterday
and that Squire Gordon had a tele-
phone talk with the Judge today and.
was advised to put.the bond at $500.

Redeczkys Clothes Catch Afire from His Lamp
he Fills his Can with Powder from the keg.
Int,ales the.Flames and is internally burned.

Charles Redeczky, a foreign miner
at Pinnickinnlck coal mines, No. l.,
Just east of the city, narrowly missed
being blown into eternity last night.
He is lucky to be alive and no one but
himself would have been to blame, If
he had showed of this mortal coil and
left no vestige OF himself to tell the
tale. ,>
About 10 o'clock at night he was
preparing to go into the mines to work
and had taken a small can of powder
from the-keg, which several of the
miners keep in the house, where he
was staying. At that juncture his
clothing caught atire from his lamp
and the keg of powder ignited aud cx.
ploded. The house was wrecked and
Redeczky was badly burned about the
face and body.
The accident thoroughly alarmed
him and he ran to the city like wild
man. He was picked up on the street
in dazed condition by onicer NJ. f.
Connel, who reported the matter to
the clarksburg Fuel Company, owners
of the mines, The Company had him
sent at once to the Harrison County
Hospital.
Redeczky's condition is not consid-
ored fatal, although the extent of his
injuries have not been fully ascei tain
ed, as he inhaled the flames, and,
therefore, was internally injured. lie
is suffering considerably.
Under the circumstances it is mi
raculous that he was not blown to
,sssoms and he is lucky to escape with
his life.
The damage to the property was
considerable. No one else was injured.

ity, in mass meeting assembled, dc
hereby resolve:
THAT we deplore the terrible con.
dition into which our town and com.
