Ooioved Man Acquitted OF Stealing
weod sues for False rsuprisonment.
Inc suit OF Frank Duprce, . cookbook
ing Young coiored man, against Thomas
n. Campbell for "a. LIS damages by unlaw-
iui imprisonment and malicious prosecu-
ton was tried in Judge Osborn's court
yesterday and the jury will bring in .
sealed verdict this morning.
a rather amusing story was brought out
in the trial. II seems from the testimony
that Campbell, who lived near Seventh
ana Pike streets, had been missing stove
wood from his woodsked since last June.
and finally decided to trap the thief. He
pulled batter OFF the side of the shed.
which was alongside of his barn, aud from
the hay loft watched for Developments.
Two or three nights he spent in the loft
and at last he was rewarded by seeing the
thief come into the shed and start out
with an armfui of wood. He climbed
down TO seize the man, but the latter
took flight, dropping his hat.
and escaped. The hat. so n
was testified, had some wooiIy hairs in IL
and this. together with a glimpse of the
thief. led Campbell to cause the arrest Of
Dupree, who was then working as porter
In saloon on Pike street. jury In the
municipal court acquitted Dupree, and
then he brought suit for damages, alleging
that he bad lost his place in the saloon as
direct result OF his arrest on the unsus-
tanned charge. At the trial yesterday he
also testified that he had lost position
in Portland whom his story followed him
there. and that his wife had deserted him
on account OF his disgrace.
Dupree's attorney. Frank b. IngersoiI.
proved by witnesses that the value of the
wood was but 10 cents, and that Campbell
came to Dupree before the iatter's arrest
and accused him Of being the thief, and
that when Dupree denied the charge
Campbell had him arrested by Police Or
Ger spriggs, who Is not nov on the force,
without q warrant The records of the
municipal court bear out the testimony on
the last point and make 1t q rather strong
one in Dupree's favor.

The monopoIe Lteen.e.

Concerning the matter of the Hcsnse of Ar. Dunn, proprietor of the Monopole ho- tel, e question has arisen owing to the fact that Mir. Dunn was sometime ago convicted of violating the liquor law In keeping his wine room open after midnight. The case, upon sppsai from the city court, went to tne common pleas court and there WAS nolied on payment of costs. According to the law, 1t is stated, MT. Dunn would not be entitled to . renewal of the license for one year after date of the conviction. The commissioners Issued a license, however, which, 1t is now said, was owing to an in- sdvertence. The commissioners have had their attention called to the case, but 1t is stated that they are undecided what to do in the case, the Aonopole being c promi. nent hotel, which has recently been en- larged and elegantly fitted up at large ex- pense by It's owner, and as such not com ing under the denomination of saloon in the common acceptance of the term. More over, some of Mir. Dunn's friends, who are among the prominent and leading business men of the city, urge that against MT. Dunns Monopole there has not been 6 sin gle complaint of any disofderly proceed ings of any kind, and that his hotel has been conducted properly and In strict &C., coIdsnce with the laws sir ce his first mad vereent act They state that under the circumstapces there Is no disposition to press the case or make trouble for him, and the whole matter will be dropped. They further urge that the case would be different If the wine room were 6 place of disorderly brswls or disturbances, which is not the case, the proprietor having been careful to maintain order and obey the law
