yolver was taken from him, and, with

Some excitement was caused Saturday
night by man named John Sweeney
who was fleeing from a number of per-

sued by a crowd which grew into large
proportions. Officer Henderson ran
after the fugitive and intercepted him at
the southeast corner of Prince and
ROYAL streets. No one seemed able to
lodge any complaint against the man,

him in charge as a suspicious character.
He was brought before Justice Cation
this morning and dismissed. 1t was
said that Sweeney had been selling fake
rings.
