A Card.

A Card.
EDIToRs JEFF. Il desire to make
few statements to satisfy the curl
Osity of Justice who inquiries why
Beck Kutz is still at large, who was
proved to have been accessory to the
CRIME of burglary. The "plain, un-
vanished tale" is as follows:
During the examination, before my
Court, of Byal, Lookabaugh and
Porter, Col. Neibling came to me and
made affidavit that Beck Kutz was an
accessory to the crime of burglary,
and did aid and abet LOOkabaugh,
ct al, in the night season, in breaking
and entering into the house of Claude
Bouvier, &c. The Col. told me that
had good reasons for believing that
Beck had the money, and asked to be
appointed special constable to go out
and take her. AS he appeared 30
Jealous in the matter, l appointed
him after administering to him an
oath to serve said writ to the best Of
his knowledge and ability. Armed
and equipped with a writ command
ing him, in the name of the State of
Ohio, Ito arrest Rebecca Kutz, he and
C. B. Wilson went after her. The
special constable returned and IL
formed me that they went out and
made full, complete and careful ex-
animation of Beck, and became con-
vincsd that she was not guilty, and
therefore did not arrest her-said he
would return the writ by order of the
Prosecuting Attorney. Why the
writ was never returned perhaps the
Colonel can explain; and by what
authority the Prosecuting Attorney
ordered him to return it without SER
vice, l cannot tell perhaps he can.
The evidence elected at the exam
ination showed beyond reasonable
doubt that Beck Kutz had hand in
planning, and a part in executing the
crime of burglary and grand larceny,
as the Prosecuting Attorney well
knows, and why he should attempt
to stop proceedings against her, or
by what authority he should make
the attempt, or why the special con-
stable did not do his sworn duty, are
matters which cannot explain.
