ALLEGED MURDERER
ARRESTED IN DETROIT
Police Have Been. Looking for the
Man for More Than Year.
History of the Crime.

| Superintendent Of Police Day re-
ceived a telegram yesterday afternoon
from the police authorities at Detroit
announcing the arrest there of Wladis-
law KonstantynowZ, who is wanted
here for the murder Of Joe" Benna-
viech on the night Of July q, 1901. This
ends long and trying search for the
prisoner.
The discovery of the whereabouts of
Konstantynowz was brought about in
rather peculiar manner. After the
murder he left the city and was traced
up the valley, but the police failed to
locate him. Friends of the murdered
man wrote to friends in Austria who
live in the same town as konstanty-
nowz's wife, asking them to try and
get possession Of any letters which he
might send home, and ascertain where
they were sent from.
| In the course Of several months word
came from these people in Austria that
| Konstantynowz was sending letters
/ from Detroit and the police of the lat
ter city We're put on his trail. Several
months ago the latter sent word on
here that they had arrested their man.
The local police were inclined to be
a little bit skeptical and sent a man
on from North Scranton to identify
| the prisoner. 1t turned out that the
| man under arrest was not the right
one, though he lived in the same house
with KOnstantynowz and had letters
| addressed to the latter in his possess
sion. The kilograms received yester-
day by Superintendent Day announces
| that there is no mistake this time and
| that the right man is in custody.
He admits the killing, but says it
was done in self-defense during fight.
He has waived extradition and will be
brought here as soon as an officer can
go after him.
On the night of July 81, 1901, Benno-
viech paid visit to Konstantynowz at
| the latter's boarding house, on Welles
street, and the two drank together for
some time. Bennoveich finally accused
| Konstantynowz of stealing a horse be-
| longing to him in the old country and
a violent quarrel ensued.
KonstantynowZ beat Bennoviech un-
| mercifully and finally picked him up
and threw him over the front porch
| railing, a distance of several feet, to
the ground The fall broke Benno-
viech's neck, killing him instantly.
Konstantynowz pulled the body of the
dead man from the front yard into the
street, and, after kicking it several
times, ran up the street and has not
been seen here since

ONE MEMBER FOR SIXTH.
Committee Decides to Accept Asses
sor's List of Taxables.

The members of the joint apportion-
ment committee of councils, appointed
to apportion the number of common
councilmen for the next four years in
accordance with the provisions of the
act of 1891. met on Saturday morning
and compiled their report, based on the
return made by the assessors some
weeks ago of the number of taxables
in each ward.
The report prepared by the commit
tee provides for a reduction Of the
number of councilmen from the Sixth
ward from two to one, and an increase
from one to two in the number from
the Fifteenth ward 1t will be remem-
bered that Messrs McGrcevy and CAL
pin. the two councimen from the Sixth
ward, objected to the return made by
the assessors, alleging that it was in
correct, and that the real number of
taXables in their ward was sufficient to
entitle it to a representation of two
members.
Chairman III. T.. Paine said yesterday
to a Tribune man that the members of
the committee felt themselves bound to
accept the sworn report of the asses
sors and that it was not within their
province to go over the assessment
books for any particular ward.
