Active at the Battle of Brandy wine. The following extract was taken from the manuscript of Dr. Peter O. Ber to let, in his description of 01ey and Vicinity," now in the possession of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia. ibe principal personage in tne nistory oi Oley urnace" is treni.

Lmniei uoree. He waa born and reared id Philadelpn to the potter's trade and in early life was practically engaged in toe business. His nncle, Jacob Winey, resided at tbe borough of Reading, and was tbe owner of the Moselem Forge property and half ot Oley urn ace. He brought uamei to Moselem as manager when be was yet nnder age, about tbe year 1772 or '3 By his steady habits and strict application to business he soon won the confidence of his employer who concluded to sell him the forge and bad actually entered contract to that effect. Meanwhile the Kevolution broke ont and yonng Udree, being an active partisan, soon rallied around him a patriotic band who espoused tbe cause ot liberty with eqnal zeal, and these elected him captain of the militia in the beginning of the war and served in this capacity at Am boy In tbe Jerseys.

After the expira tion of the time be waa drawn, he was honorably discbarged and returned borne. The war was, however, not over, and Udree was not long left to enjoy home He waa elected Colonel of a Militia Regi ment against BaltzerGebr, of Kntztown and with this regiment served nnder Washington at German town and Brandy wine. At tbe battle of Gei man town Udree was ordered to remove one of tbe Amer ican batteries, which was so placed as to produce bat little effect npon the enemy It was planted on tbe side of a steep hill and exposed to tbe tire of tbe British. He rode np the battery and while delivering his orders for the removal of the gnna he was exposed to a burst of gall ing fire. One soldier right before him was struck by a ball in the breast, kil ing him instantly, while a similar mis si le passed just before bis bridle hand, cutting on considerable ot tbe horse 'i mane.

To make good their escape was no easy matter; to go the way he came was impossible, for that was already occu pied by the advancing foe. The only way of escape was to reach the eminence. This was too steep to gain in a direct line. He bad a strong horse and rode in a zigzag manner, and thus succeeded in gaining the summit with his cbarger and made good their retreat. On the hills and at all places where they were exposed to tbe view ot tbe enemy they preserved tbe strictest order ot disci pline and marched quite slowly, bn when out of sight they proceeded as fast as possible.

Col. Daniel Udree rendered credible service with his regiment at the memor able battle of Brandy wine, in the even ing before the battle, when thev en camped near the Brandy wine, I dree made use of a little strategem. Tbe bivouac tires of his regiment were built closely together and he manoeuvred bis toope by marches and countermarches for a good while before they were al lowed to partake of their meagre supplies in their haversack. Some ot the troops became a little indignant, to be sure, at being obliged to muster while others were enjoying their sappers and camp res. Tbe fleet of this little manuenver may have bad more influence tban is thought, tor it is certain that the enemy did not see fit to attack that point ot tbe line, and may have thought that the main body of the American army had been concentrated there.

Ibis was the lm pression Udree had in view to make npon the British spies by his mamnvnr ing. When the British advanced a part of tbe militia were thrown into confusion and commenced to retreat and scatter. It was known by the commanding officers that Col. Udree could speak German and be was at once sent for and ordered to reform tbe flying regiment. Tbe first order Udree refused to obey, saying that he wonld come with bis regiment, wbicb he would not leave.

But be received peremptory orders to go and reform the regiments or deliver his sword. Upon this he proceeded at once, saying "be would sooner be shot tban lose his Hastening with all possible rHspatch tbrongn a rugged woods, through which lay his way, the balls whistled rather disagreeably over his bead, cutting down timber Ac. But not alone this, all at once he lound his fane charger lame one of bis hind legs. It was true be was shot. Nevertheless he pnt spurs to his side and in this crippled condition of his sted reached safely the scene ot action He made the most strenuous efforts in bringing tbe troops again to him, finally succeeded in colleciing about 400 men of the Hcattered regiment and led them on to tbe action.

Bnt as all are aware, all was to no purpose save tbe offering of the blood of our forefathers on the altar of liberty. Soon after this he returned home. His nude, Jacob Winey, who had some time tore given him or promised to give bim tbe Moselem forge property, refused for some reason to do so. It was, some thought, that his uncle had become rather envious ot him, for by bis gen eral good and kind behavior in the army he bad gained considerable celebrity and popularity.

Not Vet Decided Where the Trial 1 Take riaoe. Philadelphia, July 23. District At torney Graham has not, as yet, lonmu la ted a definite plan for the prosecution ef H. H. Holmes, the lite insurance conspirator and alleged multi murderer, in this city or elsewhere.

That Holmes will be, at no remote date, arraigned upon the charge of killing one or more ot bis alleged victims, is witnout doubt, and tbe only hitch in tbe proceedings is the uncertainty in determining whether be can be tried here, or at Toronto or Cbicago, with the safest prospect of se curing a conviction. To day's developments indicate that Holmes will not be turned over to the Chicago authorities on the charges of killing tbe Williams and Connor women bnt that the case, as viewed from its present aspect, is now safe in the hands of tbe legal authorities in Canada, and that it is fair to presume that his conviction there can be secured. Lawyer Thomas Fabey, wbo represents the inter ests of Mrs. Pitezel in this city, to day received a letter from the father of his client, who in strong language states that tbere are others in connection with tbe mysterious case who should be arrested He stated that he thought all the con spirators were not yet known, and hints that Lawyer Howe, of St. Louis, played a more important part in the affair tban has yet been suspected.

The Detroit Search Abandoned. Detroit, July 23. Detective Geyer, of Philadelphia, gave up his search tor the missing Howard Pitezel in Detroit this afternoon, and left in re sponse to telegrams received abont noon. calling him to Indianapolis, where, it is said, certain developments have been made in tbe case. Before leaving he said he bad found no positive evidence that Howard Pitezel ever came to De troit.

He had learned many things of value in tbe prosecution ot tbe cases against Holmes for murder, but nothing tbat he could divnlue and nothing relat ing to tbe probable fate ot little Howard "There is one thing certain," said Mr. Geyer, "if Howard Pitezel ever came to Detroit, he was destroyed in the fnrnace at the Forest avenue bouse, and tbe destructible portions of bis clothing were carried away by iioimes." SeaichlnR In the Chicago Cellar. Chicago, July 23. Four laborers dug alt day to day in the cellar of the house formerly occupied by H. H.

Holmes, at Sixty third and Wallace streets, and found little encouragement lor their toi A petticoat fonnd to day bad some dis coloration on it, which may or may not be blood, but which looks like those wbicb would be made by a piece of rusty iron, Arthur Mamer, of 413 State street took out a warrant this afternoon for the arrest of Holmes on the charge of mui der. Mamer says he believes his aunt. Mrs. Julia Connor, was murdered by Holmes between August 1 and Novem ber 1, 1S92. Holmes Make Another Admission.

Philadelphia, July 23. It is learned on good authority tbat Holmes has ad mitted that the Connor woman was killed by a criminal operation per formed upon her in Chicago. Beyond the manner of the woman's death, none of the details could be learned. TROUBLE AT COLON. A Threatening strike of Laborers on the i'anama Hallway.

Washington, July 23. Mr. Adee, Acting Secretary of State, received a telegram this morning from Josiau Pearcy, U. S. Consul at Colon, stating that a strike of laborers on tbe Panama railway had occurred there, and that serious trouble was feared.
