uniinno UNDERTAKER HANDY EVEN FOR THE ILL Jones and His Ambulance Wait at Station With Basket for living Man. JUST A LITLE MISTAKE D. D. Jones, undertaker, received a phone message yesterday afternoon caljing him to meet Lackawanna train No. 3 when it arrived here from New York at 1:55.

The undertaker got his wagon and drove to the station, backed the outfit at the baggage room delivery exit and there waited for the train. It arrived on scheduled time. Mr. Jones opened the doors at the rear of the ambulance and drawing therefrom a basket such as undertakers use in carrying a body to the morgue, sallied up the platform to get the body from the baggage car. "Nobody here for you," said the baggage master.

"There's a passen ger sick on the train, but he's far from being dead. It's a doctor that should be here; not an undertaker. Must be some mistake." The passenger wag Harry Miller, and singularly enough he is in the casket end" of the undertaking business. Mr. Miller is a member of a firm that sells supplies to undertakers.

The firm's place is on Penn avenue. When Mr. Miller was taken from the train a doctor was on hand to administer to his ills and see that he was in shape before he left the station. When the doctor had attended him it was thought best to send him to a hospital. To expedite maf ters Miller was placed in the undertaker's basket and carried to a conveyance and taken to the Hahnemann hospital.

He was resting comfortably last night. He was returning from New York when taken, ill on the train. At Stroudsburg a message was sent to Scranton notifying those at the receiving end to have an ambulance on hand to meet the train, and through some misinterpretation of the message tne unaertaker was summoned.

THE TRIBUNE REPUBLICAN, WEDNESDAY. MAY 17. 1911. BERMAN RETURNS TO ANSWER HOLZNAGLE Alleged Fake Prize Fight Agent Brought Back From Baltimore to Face Charge. HOTETMAN I0ST $15,000 A.

E. Bermanfl alias R. A. Wilson, alias E. A.

Webber, alias, F. J. Burns, wanted here to answer to an indictment charging him with swindling $15,000 from Fritz Holznagle, proprietor of the St. Charles hotel, three years ago, was brought to this city yesterday by City Detective Robert Deiter. Berman had been held in Baltimore where he was charged with obtaining $10,000 from a man there on a fake horse race, but that charge fell and Berman.

was turned over to tne bcran ton authorities. He will be arraigned for preliminary hearing at a time to be fixed by the district attorney. The story of the shaking down of Holznagle tells of how the local hotel man was Induced to accompany tier man and confederates to New York to make a lot of money on a "sure thing bet on a fixed prize fight. The fight was to take place in Bridgeport, conn, It was represented to Holznagle, it is alleged that the fight was arranged to end one way and that Holznagle would be given the winning man to bet on by those planning the fake. Holznagle carried $15,000 with him, met the "sport" who was to lose and bet his money.

It was said when the alleged fraud was exposed that the man that won Holznagle's money was a pal of Berman 's. Berman is small physically, about fifty years old and has the appearance of being a prosperous business man. He wears glasses. He Is a very inter taining conversationist and Holznagle attributes his loss to his having found Berman an Interesting companion Berman when he came to Scranton first, stopped at Holznagle's hotel and soon, it is alleged, learned of Holznagle's financial standing and marked him, it is alleged, fleecing. Berman on arriving here with the detective, was taken to the county jail.
