Elijah Rogers, a farmer living FIVE miles
south Of Colona, came into town yesterday
and identified as his property the four
steers which were brought into the city
last week by parties suspicioned at the
time of being thieves, and who left them
with George Heorath after bargaining with
him to buy them. Mr.. Rogers went be-
fore Justice Chopper and had warrants
issued for the arrest of Dean Purdy and
Asa Lewis, two men who had worked for
him last summer and who we're now living
on Green river, near Colona. Mr.. Rogers
was very sanguine in his belief that these
were the men who had stolen his cattle, Sc
Marshal Halves and Officer Brennan went
out after them. Lewis was found and
arrested on his way home from work IL
the coal bank and Purdy was found II
Colona. They took the matter very cooily
seeming positive that their innocence would
be established. They were brought to this
CITY last night and lodged in Jail, and this
morning were taken before Justic Chopper
where It was expected that Mr.. Heoratt
would identify them as the men who lief
the cattle with him, but this he failed t.
do and they were allowed to go their way
fully exonorated. Mr.. Rogers has biz
cattle, but the officers have not, and there
is very little prospect Of their ever HAVING
the thieves.
