cradle excitement In the city all day. yes.
terday by the announcement In the
morning papers that a warrant would be
issued for AleCk Wallace by Squire Bul.
ger, on oath ofPercy Collar, the alleged
thief IN the List case. During the whole
day Wallace was seen in different parts OF
the city, and he told several per.
sons that he courted investigation, and
that he did not intend to leave the city
at all. Squire Bulger did not issue war
rant until after o'clock, when he went to
the jail in company with Col. Arnett, the
prisoners counsel. When the warrant
was made out and given 10 Constable Hen.
ry, who undertook 10 ind Wallace, but
Alex. had suddenly become scarce and
the officer could not find him anywhere
although he searched everywhere for him,
Wallace finally sent word TO Henry that
he did not want to stay in jail all night,
hut would deliver himself up this
morning at 10 o'clock, at which
time he thought he could
furnish bail. Henry seeing It was useless
to look for him further gave the warrant
to Key Deffibaugh who also failed 10 find
