Assaulted Broker with Hammer.

George w. Sutton, aged "a, of Philadel-
phia, who on Friday afternoon last MUIR
derously assaulted with a hammer VIM.
R. Taylor, wealthy stock broker, in his
office on the sixth floor of the Drexel
Building in Philadelphia, formerly re-
sided at Perryville, in this county, where
he lost one of his legs in railroad acci-
dent, several years ago.
Taylor's skullwas fractured in three
places and his scalp and face terribly lac
Grated by the claw end of the hammer
with which he was attacked 1t is not
expected he can recover from his
wounds. Sutton has been- held under
$1,000 bail pending the result of the in
juries to the victim of the assault.
The theory advanced by detectives at
work on the case is that the young man
has recently been gambling in stocks on
margin and that he became one of the
great army of losers, and placed the blame
on the broker, attacking him in a spirit
of revenge.

SELLS LIVERY HORSE.
Stranger Hires Horse From H. G.
Cummings and Sells 1t In
Lancaster County.

a "Dutchman representing himself tc
be of the firm Of McGregor & Co, light
ming rod manufacturers of Indiana, Pa,
appeared at H. c. Cummings livery
stable last Wednesday stating that he
and his party of six men were located at
Conowingo and that they were rodding
some buildings between here and there.
One Of his horses had taken sick and he
wanted to hire horse for day or two.
In case the sick horse was not able to
work, he would probably need the livery
horse week, but in any case he promised
to return the following evening and ar
range for keeping the horse longer il
necessary. The liveryman let him have
a horse and hearing nothing from the
stranger after several days wait, started
an inquiry and on Tuesday ascertained
that his man had been staying in Quarry
vile until a few days previous. Mr..
Cummings further learned that his horse
had been sold to Horace B. Whitman OF
Unicorn for $75. He Immediately went
to Unicorn and secured his horse and
after going to Quarryville found that the
stranger had been stopping at c. C.
Kinks hotel there for about a week, rep
resenting himself to be in the fertilizer
business and giving his name as George
Ragid of Altoona. He wanted to locate
a large fertilizer factory at Quarryville
and arranged to purchase plot of ground
for that purpose, but before paying for
the ground said he would go to Lancaster
and verify the title. He secured team
from Kirk and appeared in Rising Sun
with another man who seemed acquainted
with the town and the business places and
after they had secured the livery horse
they drove to Unicorn and disposed of ii
to Whitman. representing to have taken
the horse in settlement of an over due
fertilizer bill. The stranger left Quarry.
vile owing his board bill. The firm ot
McGregor & Co. had done considerable
lightning rod business in and around
Quarryville, but claim that Ragid had
no connection with them although he
used their business card for Introductory
purposes while in this section.

SUICIDE BY HANGING.
Chas. Robey Found Hanging In
His Barn Last Friday.

Chas. H. Robey, formerly of Conowingo
but who recently removed to a farm in
Hartford county, was found hanging in
his barn last Friday morning. The rash
act was supposed to have been caused by
dependency. His wife had been in a
hospital for some time and during her
absence her sister came to keep house for
Robey where she was taken i'll and died.
Robey was also afflicted with serious
stomach trouble and it is thought these
misfortunes had unbalanced his mind and
caused him to take his life. He was
about IS years of age and for number of
years past has been repair man in that
section for the Postal Telegraph Company.
