HELD FOR TRIAL.
Ex=POIiCeman ". McCuSker
Arraigned Today.
Is Charged With Breaking and
Entering J. A. Slattery's Store.
Furnished the Necessary Surety For His Az,
pcarance For Trial on March 4.

Policeman William McCusker was ar
ranged before Judge Shove at his Office at
2 O'Clock this afternoon charged with
breaking and entering the store of James
A. Slattery on the night of the 21st of Jan
nary last. The hearing was very brief, the
accused pleading not guilty and he was
held for trial in bonds of 800 on March 4.
Thus another chapter is added to the
case which has attracted more attention to
the police department than any other
matter which has probably happened
since its establishment.
Readers OF The EVENING TRIBUNE are
already familiar with the case, how the
defendant was charged with conduct un-
becoming an officer and rendered his res
ignation to the Mayor, who accepted il.
The x-officer then left town and was not
heard from for some time.
Before his return a writ of trespass was
issued, and shortly after arrangements
were made to furnish bonds for him and
he returned to this city several days ago.
No small amount of curiosity has been eX
cited regarding the final outcome of the
affair.
