Deputy Collector Andrew P, Bedford ami six United State marshals Igureu let the fight. 01 lata yearn wmmshiHlHg has tieooma quite common Ih this aecUun ot Northaaatern PeHnaylvaHla, ami within the peat twelve months there have been at unusual number of arrests. The irregularity nan usually been com ml tied, however, by thoe who hid a distillery 1U Benc, awl who, Instead of making spirits without 11 centre, evaded the law by falsifying their revenue report, either by omiseloR or otherwise Such were Mte facta iu the case, and Deputy Collector liedford waa led Unit to stteplclon ami later to cogulaaaee by the reports that came dally Into his hands. He accordingly took out a warant for the arreet of 7. K. Chandler, James Gow and W. K. Col well, and, with the other member of hla bam, left oh the one o'clock train for New Milford. Arrtvhts; there, the party at once drove to the house of Chandler. Whether or sot the latter had been warned they were unable to ascertain, but the building was closvil to the topmost blind, and the door waa locked and barred. Their continued rapping at last roused some one with in, however, and behind a closed blind a woman's voice asked what they wanted. The chief of the po replied that they had a warrant for Chandler's arrest and wanted him. Tim reply at once came that be had gone to Albany, and would not return for several days. The marshal then naked her to open the door, but she refused, and when thuy attempted to force It the bright barrel of a silver-plated revolver wan thrust through the flab. This, together with an announcement to the effect that the house warn the owner's castle ami unless they desisted theys must be responsible for any.iratfedy that might ensue, called a halt oi. the proceedings for a few minutes, and then, nfler a consultation, the attack wan renewed. The door of the besieged house was broken open, and the posse, after dispossessing the belligerent female of her wea'KHi, made a search of the houe. Chandler, who w-ts secreted in the houpe, heard the footsteps of the ofttaers coinlug up the stars, and hastily summoaing a confederate, who was in another room, he stepjHnl out to meet the officers. Hastily grabbing a double-barreled shotgun, he tired twice at the marshals, badly wounding- Officers Black and Ilowen. Before he could lire again Deputy Collector Redfoid put a ball through his cheek. James Gow, Chandler's confederate, now took up tne gun and commenced to beat the wonmled offlcerA over the head. A shot front the deputy marshals sent him to the floor. Mrs, Chandler, who by this time had escaped the attention of the officers, ran out Into the yard and summoned assistance by blowing a large dinner-horn, Sympathizers and other moonshiners were soon on tbe spot. The Federal officers, beginning to feel alarmed, dispatched one ot their number on horseback to tbe nearoet village for help, and In the meantime shut themselves up In the house. About thirty rough backwoodsmen were on the outside, and made a desperate effort to get into the house, but every time were repulsed by a volley from the officers. At 7:S0 In the evening the mo.) outside organised a party to go up on the house aad tear the roof off, but the timely arrival of the authorities from Tunkhannock prevented the carrying out of their design. The feeling among this claea of people is very bitter against the officers, aad hail not Resistance arrived they would undoubtedly have murdered the whole party. Marshal lllack ami Chandler will die from their wounds. SOCIALISTS VS. ANARCHISTS.

One Mtore "dark and bloody page'' must nuw be sdded to the blackened history of that unfortunate city. At eight o'clock this morning CHy Clerk Tim Canty entered the mayor's if. sec. There h met City Attorney O'Melveuy, who wh In tbe midst of a lot of legal papers. He accused, in a very abrupt and forcible manner, Mr. O'Mel veuy of circulating stories dertiury to hi reputation. Mr. O'Melveny, Ih a positive but gentlemanly manner, denied Die allegations, and pro

ceeded anout His uusluea. Canty wa not satisfied. He wanted gore to paint another scene In his record, and, O'Melveny being a very small man ami unable to resist an attack, Uie blj duffer grabbed his victim by the hair of the head, crushed hint to the floor and kicked and pounded him In a moet brutal manner, Inflicting several ugly gashett on the back of his head and almost mining his eve. After tiring he left the mayor's oihee anil disappeared. Mr. O'Melveny was removed to Dr. Winton's office, where his wounds were draused and he was cared for. This attack on Attorney O'Melveny was the latest of a series of diabolical outrage. Highway robbery 1 now the order of the day. At the o'clock yesterday afternoon, while the streets were tilled with people, two men wore knocked down on Dyke avenue and robbed, one of three dollars nnd a half and the other of one dollar and a half, together with all else in their possession. The next hold-up occurred near the approach of the bridite, In the vicinity of the Kast St. Louis hotel, where an old man, helpless In years, w knocked down and brutally beaten and his valuables taken, The Green Tree notei was the next ftceue of the daylight footpads, Here they accosted a man In the afreet, near the hotel, and asked him to treat them. He refused. The garrolers then picked the man up bodily and carried hmi from the street to the hotel "yard and there pummelcd htm Into tdlcuce and then relieved him of what valuable he had. Mrs. Seng, wife of the proprietor of the Green Tree hotel, witnessed the robbery (from a window, but wan unable to do anything but cry out for hlp. There being no poMce, the thieves paid no attention to her and finished their job. Alter their victim was released, ami told to depart, they returned to tne .street to hunt a fretdi victim, They were not long In finding one, ami were carrying him bodily into tbr van! when they were met by the brave lady above mentioned, who met them at Uie gate with a cocked revolver htaring them in the face. "I will kill the first man that enters this gate!" the exclaimed, "ami I will die in my tracks before I will allow another man to be robbed in my yard!" Tbe hold-tips, fearing tbe brave little lady meant business, returned to the street and rifled their victim In the preuce of iininerous persons, who looked on from a distance with trembling fear, or were In cahoots with the gang. ' All these robberies occurred yesterday afternoon between three and Ave o'clock, which shows the daring of the gang that have the sympathy of the municipal authorities over there. At eleven o'clock last night John Steinert, nephew of the late ex-Mayor Bowman, while returning home from St. Louie, at a point between Strider's and Gross' saloon on Dyke avenue, met ix thug?, two of whom he Identified as the men who beat up Kirk, who knocked him down, beat him and robbed him of sis dollar?. How long this condition of affairs will continue to exist is a matter that seems Impossible to determine. The resectable citizens are In a state of excitement 1 bordering on frenzy. No man, woman or ! child Is safe to go upon the streets in uroau uayugnt, ami me ntgn-a are nneu with awful fears of violence and wholesale roblery. City Treasurer Alex. Flannlgan told a reporter some time ago (before he be came treasurer) that he wanted Uie thugs and liniullllliia in run Ilia olfv because I . i ..,. ,i .. .t.i - HWUVIininD . . . V . rj T9 wmm, . v a mviiw j --j "we" would get It. It Is not to be supposed he meant he wanted things to go aa they are going now. I Petitions are being circulated, signed by the tmst citizens, praying the mayor to appoint night watchmen. This is, as the citizens admit, a fruitless errand for mercy and protection. If the mayor could give no protection to the railroads, I lie can give none' to the people; he has nothing, can give nothing, and is noth- ( I ii sr. If he should step down nml out, it would be a good riddance. Crime in Its most daring ami terrible phases is the ' rale In Kast St. Loul, ami unle? some protection Is afforded very noon there will not be a decent citizen left in it. Keversed Mis Own Ilpctalen. Cincinnati, June 17. Judge Huston yesterday afternoon decided that Cotmty Solicitor Smith had no authority to appear for Auditor Brewster and Treasurer Katterman In the Dow test case, and that upon investigation the case developed other Irregularities, which, had lie known at the time, he would not have rendered hla former judgment. The judgment was therefore declared void, because the judge rendered Itundertnlsapprehuiislon Into which he had been led by the attorney In the case. "This may," added the Court, have so efcect in the upcr court to which the case has been appealed, but I believe that, the jmlsment being void here, all subsequent proceedings In the case are void." sec Keststed the Wrong OWrcr.
