McDERMoTT DOES SMART THNG AGAIN
The notorious thief, Henry McDermott,
was found this morning, AZ about halfpast
o'clock, going through" drunken man, at
the corner Of Front and Pacific streets He
was discovered by officer Bovee, who imme-
diatelv arrested him. The officer requested
the intended victim to follow and appear
against the thief; but McDermott cautioned
him. wing that if he came to the station
house he would be locked up for it at least
three DAYS or week. The officer was not
able to attend to both men at the same time,
and as he wished to make sure of McDermott,
he could not take charge of the othe". who,
believing McDermott's story, and not liking
quarters in the station house, refused to 70 :
low. The rascal thus, 10y a smart saying,
rot the main witness against him out of the
way.
In the Police Court, this morning. officer
Bovee testified to the circumstances of the
arrest. He said that there was boy, one of
the notorious little thieves of the city, with
MeDermott, and that the latter, when di
covered, tried to conceal himself McDer-
mott had then taken the drunken mans boots
Off
McDermott made statement and said that
the drunken man was Patrick Toomey, the
best friend he had in California Far from
intending to rob him, he was trying to get
him home from carouse and had pulled one
of his boots off because he had a sore foot
He said he would bring Toomey up to sub
stantiate his statements, if he were allowed
to 90 after him. He said that he had nothing
to do with the boy seen in his company. He
believed that boy wanted to rob his friend
Toomey, but no he-he would be the last
man to rob his friend
The case was continued, to allow Patrick
Toomey to be brought into court.
In the course of an hour, man calling
himself Patrick TOomey, appeared in Court
being placed on the witness stand, he said he
was the man who had been with McDermott
He said be had pulled his boots OFT himself.
Judge Coon said that the evidence was not
sufficient to hold the accused, and he there
fore discharged him. lie also remarked that
McDermott looked better than usual. Mac re
piled that he had been working in Sonora, and
that he was only passing through the city on
his way to Tehuantepec Thurs
day.
