HAS SOMETHING UP Ills SLEEVE.
Cigar Dealer Kripp and that Chinese
Lottery Joint.
A Rumor That He Threatens to In
volve Number of Property
Owners in the Matter.

When the case of E. L. Kripp, charged
with leasing building for lottery pur-
poses, was called in the Police Court yes
terday, the defendant stated that he de-
sired continuance for several weeks, as
his health was poor, and he was advised
by his physician to go Immediately to the
springs.
The prosecuting officer is willing to
have continuance, your honor" he
added, ''but City Attorney Brown says
he won't have it.
"Now, l want to say right here that
don't think this case is one in which ar
bitrary proceeding are necessary. l am
business man Of this city, my family
are here. my business is here. have no
Intention of running away. The state of
my health is such that 1 simply cannot
attend. l have bonds filed for my APP
pearauce, and l hope that your honor
Will grant me continuance of a few
weeks.'
IL shall certainly not consent to any
such continuance" replied City Attor-
ney Brown; land furthermore, your
bonds are not altogether satisfactory, and
this case may prove more important than
you think for.''
wv ell, III put up $3.50 or $500 bonds if
that will suit you," retorted hripp. THE
Judge knows all the circumstances, and
besides the prosecuting witness is will
ing"
The prosecuting witness cuts no figure
IN this matter" said the City Attorney.
1T lies entirely with the court to grant a
reasonable continuance to procure coun-
sci and witnesses, but L shall not consent
TO a longer delay"
IF procure a DOCTORS certificate cer-
titying that my health is such that [ am
at present unable to appear, will that
prove satisfactory?" asked kripp.
1t certainly must" replied the City
Attorney.
Justice Davis said he had no right to
allow protracted continuance, but
would set this case for hearing on the 9th
at 10 o'clock.
''AIl right; I'll have a Doctors certifi-
cate before that" reioined Kripp, as he
left the courtroom.
1t IS 1umored that Kripp has a sensa-
tlon IN store that will result in a success
sion of suits and a probable uprooting of
all the dens OF infamy in the city. 1t is
stated that he threatens to prefer charges
against every property-owner who rents
his buildings for immoral purposes.
A similar charge against NJ. Diepen-
brock was continued until the same date
at the request of City Attorney Brown,
VINO desired to amend the complaint.

stop, and they all obeyed. except one
who told Rutherford he had no right to

others, and when the officer commanded
him 10 stop he told him to go to heIiu'
rutherford pursued and again told him
to stop, but with the same result. and as
the man had reached the alley, nearly
half block away, Rutherford fired a
shot from his revolver with the inten-
ton, the officer said at the time, to scare
MN and bring him to. The man disap-
peared in the alley, and the officer ran
around 10 Third street to head him off.
The alley was atterward searched, when
the dead body OF Elmer Schmidt was
found lying about eighty feet from the
entrance.
