Alexander Burnie, of Grass Valley, who
reported few days ago that he had been
robbed of 50, 600 by two men in Oakland,
soon after he left the train to go to a
friends house, was before the Police Court
yesterday afternoon on charge of misde-
meanor. The charge was brought by cred
itors, who did not believe that Burnie had
lost any money which he said he had OBJ
tained from the sale of his store at Grass
Valley. An attorney was sent to Grass
Valley to examine into the affair." and
came to the conclusion that Burnie had
not sold the store at all-tbat the alleged
sale was only sham. A suit was brought
and an attachment was levied on the store
and stock for the creditors. Shortly after
the suit was brought the whole matter
was compromised by turning over to the
creditors the whole stock, valued at S3.-
400. Yesterday the prosecution moved to
dismiss the criminal charge against Burnie,
because it could not be sustained, Burnie
having had no money to lose. The motion
was granted.
