Complainant Sent to the Cham
Gang.

A young man who gave his name as
John Thompson was arrested Monday
ON complaint of companion named
Philip Everett charged with obtaining
goods under false pretenses in Rich

the complainant and defendant as sus-
nieious characters. Upon being brought
before the bar yesterday morning
Thompson denied the charge brought
against him while Everett was not clear
IN his allegation. The two were or
dered TO be locked up until this morn
ing when they were again placed IN the
dock. Thompson reiterated his inno-
cence and Everett could not substantiate
his charge. The Mayor gave the oc-
crsed fifteen minutes in which to leave

there were no sign Of excitement. and

CHARGED WITH NUMBERING A CHILD

CHARGED WITH NUMBERING A CHILD.
Charley Wee, a Chinese laundryman,
was arrested in Buffalo, n. Y, yester-
day and held on an open charge in con-
nection with the murder of Mary MUIR
ply, a ix-year-old girl, who mysteri-
oasly disappeared on June IL, and
whose body, bound with ropes and wrap
ped in newspapers and coarse cotton
cloth, was found floating in a small
pond in Forest Lawn cemetery. The
autopsy showed that the child had been
outraged and strangled. Public feeling
runs high and all the Chinese laundries
in Buffalo have been closed and police
men stationed in front of them. Wees
place was thoroughly searched, and the
police say they found ample evidence on
which TO hold the Chinaman. Pieces of
rope similar to that on the body
were found in the shop. The coarse
cotton goods used in the laundry for the
purpose of covering ironing boards cor
responds exactly in texture with the
piece of cloth in which the body was
wrapped. In a room used by We as a
bed chamber the police found blood
stained bed clothing. The wall behind
the bed was despatched with
blood. A second Chinaman, who was
visiting Wee at the time the arrest was
made, was also taken into custody.

unreasonable hours and holding unbo-

are young men. 1t is to be presumed
they are on their way home ''half seas

hiIarat;ng intoxicants, rehearsing matters

pudated by themselves. Moreover, they
are liable to be mistaken for burglars at
such unseemIy hours, besides sapping the
constitution of sound, healthy young
men, capable of performing all the re-
quirements of gentlemen, instead Of in
dulging in the immoralities of the con-
demned and unpopular inebriate. y.

FREDERICK SASSCER D.r..
CHARLTON sAsscER, ''"S'e'S'
THE RESULT.

The election in Maryland is not
without encouragement to Democrats.
The vote in Baltimore shows that the
party Is rapidly recovering lost ground,
and, with good nominations and upon
local issues, the indications are strong
that the city will 60 Democratic next
year..
In the counties general apathy on
the part of Democratic voters is every
where apparent. Particularly in this
section of the State was this the case.
Democrats seemed to realize the hope
lessness OF the cause and abstained
from voting. This was unfortunate
from a party standpoint.
Republicans in this county are
much elated over the result. But the
signal victory they have gained under
the leadership of Mr.. Mudd is sure to
bring them woes innumerable in the fu
ture. His biggest majority ever re-
ceived by candidate" as be terms it,
will turn the attention of his rival,
Senator McComas, to this section, and
big fight will probably be on hand
between them next year. It will be
waged in this county with bitterness
unprecedented. The decentralization
that will follow, the 'independent
ticket" that may be the result of the
contest, the disappointed candidates
for Republican nominations-and they
will be many-ought to create reason
able hope of Democratic success again
in this county.
