Accused.

John and William Mack, brothers.
who are employed as farmhands a
short distance from Allentown, have
been detained by the Allentown police
on suspicion of having caused the
death of l.. Harold Lichtenwalner, OF
Catronia, whose body was found IN
Ziegenfuss' quarry on August y, four
days after he had mysteriously dis
appeared.
Lichtenwalner had been shot in the
head and in his hand he clutched a
revolver, one chamber Of which had
been discharged. A boy, at play neal
the quarry, discovered the body. The
police at first believed Lichtenwalner
had committed suicide, but after his
mother had insisted that her son had
been murdered they began an inves
tigation.
Lichtenwalner's watch and chain
had disappeared and the police traced
them to a local pawn shop. Here
they learned that John Mack had
pledged the articles. They went out
to the farm where the Mack brothers
were employed and arrested John as
he worked in a field. He admitted
pawning the articles and said his
brother had given them to him.
When the police went to the house
to get William, he tried to escape
