GARRY WAS NOT SURF
He Could Identify the Trio Who
Held Him Tn.

Although several times identified as
the men who held up and robbed John
Garry several weeks ago, John Ken
nedy, James Lee and George Keliher
were yesterday discharged from GUS
tody without a hearing. The dismissal
was granted upon molten of the county
attorney, who, however, was much dis
satisfied with the coui Sc which he said
he was obliged to pursue, and strongly
criticised the behavior of Garry, the
complaining witness.
MI Anderson said Garry had applied
for the warrant for arrest for Kennedy,
Lee and KelIiher, stating that they had
robbed him of a check for S4.70 and SIS
in cash, the property of G. H. Graves,
by whom he was employed. He inform
ed the county attorney that he had
seen the prisoners at the central sta
ton and positively, according to Mr..
Anderson, identified them as the right
men. There had been no intimation
during confinement of the prisoners on
the part of Garry that he doubted their
identity, until Monday evening, when
Garry informed Mr. Anderson that he
could not state on oath that it was the
accused who had held him up. In view
of this condition of affairs, Mr.. Ander-
son stated that he had no other alter
native than to request the dismissal Of
the case.
