The State Did Not Prove the Value of
Garment and Matthew Mckay Go,

The State Did Not Prove the Value of a
Garment and Matthew Mckay Goes
Free.
Matthew Mckay took an oil-slsin coat
from an awning pole in front Of the store
Of Nathan Sappio, No. los West Front
street, Tuesday morning and yesterday
was arraigned in municipal court for
the offence. But the city solicitor failed
to prove the value of the garment. The
owner of the coat said it was worth about
10 cents when he bought it, year ago.
but now it was rotten and full of holes
and really possessed no commercial value
1t was merely used as an advertising sign,
and hung in front of the clothing store to
inform the public that old clothes could be
bought there.
Mckay came along Tuesday morning,
threw the coat over his shoulder and passed
on. He met Max Cohen on Front street
and it seems that the latter saw some in
trnsic value in the coat. At any rate he
paid Mckay 10 cents for it. Then Cohen
went to Patroiman Maloney and told him
he thought the coat had been stolen. Nc
Kay was arrested. When Sappio, at the
hearing, said the coat had no value, Judge
Ball dismissed the case. IL it had gone to
court ii would have cost the county about
SIS to try it and unless the State had
proved value there would have been no
conviction, while Max Cohen would have
received about 50 in witness fees.
