crooked Dealers In Horsenesh.

Marshal Morton and Officer Waller
caught up with some crooked horse
dealing yesterday evening. BY some
means known only to themselves, they
got an inkling that there was man
In the city by the name Of Frank
Baker who was selling stolen horses.
Investigating the matter, the officers
found that the animals alleged to have
been stolen were generally disposed of
on stray sale day, and that they We're
brought to him by a man named w.
l., Wilson. In the evening about
three O'Clock, while they were
on the lookout about the matter, they
caught Baker with u horse which he
stated he had bought from Wilson.
Baker was taken IN charge and soon
afterwards Wilson, who denied that he
had sold him the horse, defied Baker
to produce II bill of sale which was
done. Both parties we're locked up.
The wife of Baker says that she over
heard conversation between her
husband and Wilson to the effect that
the latter was to steal horses and that
the former was to dispose OF them on
stray sale day, under the pretense
that they were stock ligitimately pick
