Stipp was assessed $50 fine.
Thursday night he came to San Antonio

was in company with Stockman from
Utopia, whose name is Bud Palmer
They were seen at the Washington thea

deavOrCd to get his friend Bud" to &C
company him up North Laredo street.
THE officers were OF the opinion that
highway robbery was his intention, and
took him in custody.
Stipp is hard looking citizen" but
claims to be a reputable man. and a den
fist by profession, aud stated that he
came to the city to buy some instruments
use in his office.
