DETECTIVE SIMMONS

behalf OF tho Hon. Mr. Mott, and glros as the
roason for his action that tho genton,an "blows"

70 it would aeem aa il 1lr. 8iulmonB Wero very
foolish Individual to state tho fact, aa he has
done, to at loast ono pereon, probably to more.
But tho important fact Is, TINT Mr. Mott does
not recover stolen goods, 30 far as known; that
he haa not 30 far as known, secured tho arroBt Of
thieves md this too, while no less than Biz bur-
Klarics have occurred within two months right
upon or near hts old stamping ground on Btate

It should be stated moro distinctly than is
done nboye, that Justice Doyden Bays ho acted
ut Detective Bimmons request.
The above facts can be substnnhRtod II neces-
eary, aud possibly tho Simmons theory OF OK
