The GALT ARSON CASES.
''Larupin Jack" Taylor on Examination
Again for InCendiarism.
His Counsel Argue That Only One Ex-
animation is LegaI-An Inn
portant Point.

The examination of John Taylor, alias
''Larupin Jack" on the second charge Of
arson preferred against him, was COM
menced before Justice of the Peace De-
vine yesterday. Taylor has been held to
answer with Crabtree and Dobson for
burning the Arcade stables at Galt, and
this second charge is for burning the
hotel adjoining the stables.
When the matter was called up yester-
day II. w. Johnson and w. II. S. Scott
appeared as attorneys for defendant, and
Assistant District Attorney Buckley and
Jud G. Brusie for the prosecution.
The prosecution did not want to pro-
ceed, as two Of the witnesses, Peter
Haller and Mrs. Maggie Mitchell, had
not been found. But as the defense in
tended to make a long legal argument
against the second charge Of arson prior
to taking testimony, it was agreed to
proceed.
1t was agreed at the request of the de-
fenSe that the same fire destroyed both
buildings, that the premises adioined and
that the buildings belonged to different
owners. These admissions were made
it was agreed, as a foundation for argu-
ment on legal points prior to hearing eYi-
dence.
The defense then argued that the of
fense, if any had been committed, consti-
tuted one offense; that the policy of the
law is opposed to multiplicity of actions
for the same crime, etc. The attorneys
contended that the destruction of the
buildings resulted from one ignition; that
it was one crime, and Taylor had already
been held to answer therefor, and that he
was not legally subject to another exam
ination.
The prosecution disputed these points,
arguing that there might be different ex-
aminations, and that it was optional with
the District Attorney which one he pro
ceeded to trial with.
Justice Devine said the question was a
most important one, and he desired time
in which to look up the law and consider
! the matter. In any event, he said, the
| prosecution would be entitled to con-
| tinuance, the officers having been unable
| to find Mrs Mitchell and Haller.

WHOSE DUTY IS IT2

Police Judge Cravens Suggests Re-
form That Should be Carried Out.
There was a brief session of the Police
Commission yesterday, at which Chief of
Police Drew was not present.
The commission directed that Special
Officer Warner be retained in place of
Regular Officer Frazee, deceased, until
the annual election on the 1st of April.
Commissioner Cravens expressed the
hope that the new Chief, John B. Rod
gers, would drive out the disreputable
characters that now inhabit Second and
Third streets, in the vicinity of l. street,
so that decent people might find it possi-
BILE to travel in that portion of the city.
During the discussion of the subject
Judge Cravens pointed out that people
who let apartments or tenements for the
purposes of gambling or prostitution are
guilty of a misdemeanor and may be
lined $500 or sent to Jail for six months.
He hoped that something would be done
toward prosecuting those property
ers who are guilty of doing this thing.

The city has been comparatively free
from footpads of late, but now is a good
time for police officers who wish to be re-
tanned in their places to drop their politi-
cal "pulls' and make records for them
selves by running down ali suspicious
characters and known thieves. That
should give them the best kind of pull
