quilla H.. or John A. Dulaney, wanted
in St. Louis. New York. Washington
and particularly Baltimore for forgery,
was arrested at the Hotel Hanover yes
terday in the presence of his wife, after
a sensational struggle.
Detectives Thomas of Baltimore and
Tall of this city broke in the door of
the Dulaney room. Dulaney jumped
from bed at the first sound and a hot
fight began in the dark. A porter turned
on light and the prisoner was soon
subdued. but not until after he at
tempted to reach a revolver that was
under pillow and another under the
bed. While dressing he said he wanted
a vest and stepped to a trunk, but the
detectives anticipated him and found
a third pistol. He made three more
moves. such as to get collar or a
handkerchief, and in each place the
detectives found bowie knife. Having
been foiled at every turn, he gave up.
Among Dulaney's personal effects
We're found chloroform and a sponge,
a silk bag which the detectives say is
patterned after the kind used by sand
bagging highwaymen; two pieces OF
rope, a chisel and a razor
Dulaney, who had various aliases, is
charged with having secured money
under false pretenses from several
business men of Baltimore. He is only

He soon fell in love with his uncle's

HOW LEWISTON LOST
BY a Bunch Of Ragged Errors in the
Seventh Inning

With the game well in hand at the
opening Of the seventh inning Lewis
ton punched a few costly errors and
the visiting team scored four runs
which gave them the game for neither
side scored after that. Hamblin pitched
winning ball and If he had been given
proper support at the critical moments
of the game Lewiston would have won
by a score of to 2. With the score 4
to at the beginning of the seventh in
favor of the home team the university
boys came to bat with Rilsbach up.
The lengthy pitcher hit a fly out Of
reach Of Edwards and reached first
Cole the next man up hit little infield
ball to Hamblin who threw to Wells
at second to cut the runner OFF but
Wells muffed it and the disgust he ex-
pressed over the error was in keeping
with what the crowd thought. Brinker
hit a hot liner just inside the left foul
line and Rilsbach scored. Teats hunted
and both Hamblin and Sprague went
for the ball. Hamblin reach it for an
elegant tumble and to help the visitors
along he threw it to third with nobody
there and Cole scored on the bunch of
errors. Here the score was tied with
two men on bases and no out. Hoover
at the bat was equal to the occasion
| and smashed long fly into left field
where Brooks was not and brought in
two runs which proved the winning of
the game. Lost by Lewiston by a
| bunch Of ragged errors
The second Of the series was taken
by the visitors who have won a warm
spot In the hearts of the fans by their
brilliant playing. Lewiston is stronger
at the bat and should have won both
games but for the fine fielding of their
opponents and their splendid team
work. They show the training Of a
competent coach. The Lewiston team
is the strongest put in the field here fol
many years and they can be expected
to take care Of most Of the amateur
clubs playing in the Inland Empire
country this season.
