CHARLES HANE ARRESTED ON A
WARRANT CHARGING HIM WITH
ENTERTAINMENT.
CITY SALESMAN FOR BOOTH.
COVERS A DISCREPANCY OF
ABOUT $3.50.
TWO MONTHS BUSINESS TO GO OVER
What the Investigation Disclosed
Money Has Gone Somewhere and
Hane's Arrest Follows.

Charles Hane, formerly city sales
man for the A. Booth Packing COM
pany, was arrested yesterday on a
warrant charging embezzlement. The
warrant was issued at the instance Of
G. w. Turner, the company's local
agent, and specifies only $50 as the
amount alleged to have been misap-
propriated by Hane, but 1t is claimed
that his shortage will amount to nearly
$500. Hane was locked up at the CEN
trail station, where he refused to be
seen or to make any statement con-
corning the charges against him.
The accused man has been employed
by the Booth Packing company for the
salesman Hane transacted a large
amount of business and handled near
~ all of the city collections.
Hane, it is said would take orders
for goods which he would deliver, also
making the collections. When the
goods left the store three bills were
made out by the bookkeeper, one for
the cashier one to be sent along with
the goods and the other turned over to
Hane, upon which to make collections.
Hane also kept a day book. with the
amount of money received each day
which was balanced by the cashier
and stamped at night if correct. When
the entire bill was paid the original in
the office was stamped paid with
cashiers stamp and the bill turned
over to Hane, with his signature for
the entire amount, also placed on file.
When the investigation was made it
developed that the amounts of these
receipted bills did not correspond with
the sums marked paid in Hane's day
book, and Furthermore that the cashier
had not stamped the paid" mark
upon the original bills.
When Manager Turner's suspicious
were first aroused, two weeks ago, he
made careful examination, but could
discover nothing except that the re-
ceipted bills in the office and those
turned in by Hane bearing his own
signature for the full amounts did not
agree with the day book of the city
salesman. That something was wrong
he was certain, and at once summoned
l. M. Smith the company's auditor,
from Chicago. Mr.. Smith took charge
of the books, and states from his eX-
animation of them for nine months and
a half back that there is a shortage of
$3.50, which will, probably, when the
two and a half months records yet re-
naming are investigated. amount to
500. Mr.. Smith declares the method
employed by the alleged swindler to
have been a clever conception, and ex-
pressed the belief that a systematic
course of stealing, in which Hane and
some one else were engaged, has been
going on for some time. Hane is a
single man, thirty-three years of age,
and is under bonds to the Booth Pack
ing company by the American Surety
company in the sum of $500.

BENTON COUNTY, JUSTICE I'M A ROW
WITH THE GAME COM
EMISSION.
LET cULPHTs OFF TOO EASY.
INSTEAD Of BEING FINED $1,000.
THEY8 GET OFF FOR
$40.
CAN NEW PROCEEDINGS BEGIN!
Defense Maintains That the Lesser
Penalty lis 81 Bar to Farther
Prosecution.

A question as to the relative powers
OF the executive and Judiciary depart
ments of the state government has been
raised within a few days at Rice's sta
ton, Benton county, which may lead
to legislation on the part Of the pres
ent legislature more definitely stating
the possible contingencies in the case
of certain prosecutions.
A few weeks ago the officers repre-
sentlng the state game and fish COM
mission arrested at Rice's three prom
lnent citizens Of the place, charged
With having in their possession CONTRA
band game which would require under
the law the imposition of fines in the
sum of about $2,700. This was the
minimum fine that could be imposed
under the law for the amount Of game
found in the possession of the cuIpits
A day or two ago the case was brought
up 'before justice Of the peace, and in
stead Of the parties being mulcted in
the amount of the legal fine, DR.. A. NJ
Rathbun was fined $50 and the mer-
chant Bailey SO.
The minimum penalty for the pos
session Of a single contraband bird is
$40, with $50 similarly for a saddle Of
Venison. The court, therefore, seems
to have imposed the minimum penalty
that could have been imposed. 1t
Is intimated that the small fine was
agreed upon between the counsel for
the defense and J. A Sem, the coun-
ty attorney, whose term has just eX-
pired. Thomas Van Etten, the incom-
Ing county attorney, and partisan of
another party, is reported to have in
formed the officer Of the commission
that the proceeding was without his
sanction. He has also expressed the
opinion that the game and fish COM
mission can, as it has threatened, take
the matter before the grand jury Of
Benton county on the other game
seized.
The defense in the case claims that
the case is now finished, under the
constitutional provision that no person
shall more than once be placed in
jeopardy Of life or liberty for the same
offense. The prosecution, however in
sists that the possession Of each bird
or piece of contraband game is the
basis of separate offense, and that
the fine imposed by the justice court
is not bar to further prosecution.
Executive Agent Fullerton, Of the
state game and fish commission. stated
yesterday that the matter would be re-
ferred to I. e. Byrnes, the counsel for
the commission and that the members
of the commission" were in favor of
prosecuting the case farther, the fine
being ridiculously small in view Of the
extent Of the slaughter Of game per-
petrated by the prisoners and their
DOacherS

CITY MUST PAY INTEREST
On It's improvements After a Certain
Time,

Judge Kelly filed an order yesterday
in the case Of George w. Reese against
the city of ST. Paul, holding that a
contractor employed by the city TO
furnish material for and to lay and
repair wooden sidewalks is not en-
titled to interest on the contract price,
from the date Of the completion of the
wook. Inasmuch as the assessment for
the sidewalks cannot be made until the
sidewalks are laid, inspected by the
city engineer and accepted, Judge
Kelly holds that the city should be al
lowed a reasonable time to collect, by
sale or otherwise, the assessments to
pay for the sidewalks.
In the case in point the work was
completed on Nov. Is, 1895. Judge Kelly
fixed the reasonable time that should
be allowed the city at four and one-half
months and decides that April 1, 1896
is the date when the city should have
had the money to pay the plaintiff. and
from which date it must pay interest
upon any unpaid balance.
The order of the court is that the
motion for judgment In the PLAINTIFF s
favor on the pleadings, be granted and
that judgment in plaintiffs favor and
against the city be entered for the
sum of $4,378.63

Not Much Stock Taken in Her RO-
mantle Story.
SEDALIA, Mo-, Jan. 8.-Miss L. Dray
ton AStOr who has been working in a
hotel here awaiting the time when she
should legally become heir to part of
the Astor estate, is greatly chagrined
at the newspaper notoriety accorded
her here and abroad. She says she
does not wish the idea to gain curren-
cy that she has relatives with whom
she could be living, but prefers to work
in hotel
The girls story is generally discredit-
ed here. The first intimation of it
came to a newspaper in an anonymous
letter dated Jefferson City and post
marked Sedala. Lottie, Laura, Leon
or Dratie Langdon-she is known by
all of these names-tells the story of
her great connections haltingly. She
is not quite certain Of the initials Of
given names. She says she knows
VIM. Waldorf Astor, who came to ST.
Louis for her when her father died,
and, when she refused to go with him,
he got very angry and said she should
have nothing. The anonymous letter
is regarded by those who received it
as hoax. 1t was the badly disguised
writing Of a person who writes a good
hand, and the spelling is obviously the
illiteracy of an educated person.

Fl CROOKSTON, Jan. 8.-The railroad
schemes, which were lost sight of tenn
porarily when the crop of 1895 turned
out so poorly, are again to the front,
and at least one of them promises to
attract widespread attention in the
near future.
The annual meeting Of the North Da-'
kOta and Minnesota Central railway
will occur shortly and the directors
meeting, which will call the stockhold-
ers together, will occur in this city
on January IL. The proposed line will
traverse the Southern tier of towns in
Polk county and extend through the
region between here and Duluth. The
directors have been at work in an at
tempt to interest capital, and it is
given out upon the best of authority
that they have been successful and
that work will be begun early in the
spring as preliminary surveys have AL
ready been made upon which a move
can be begun. The directors have
Plan formulated which they propose
to submit to the voters for bonding
the county, which, it is asserted, will
be winner. The conditions are said
to, be very favorable to the taxpayers
and the projectors confidently predict
that it will be heartily endorsed by the
voters as soon as submitted.

Judge Kelly and a jury listened yes
terday to the evidence in an action for
$l0,0 900 damages for false arrest brought
by William Barry against Isaac Salt
peter. The plaintiff, who is employed
by the agent of the Washburn block
went into the defendants store and
offered him In payment for some goods
q check he had received from his en-
plOyer in payment of salary. Mr.. Salt
peter had his suspicious and called in
a policeman The officer advised Barry
to go with SaItpeter to the signer of
the check and satisfy him it was
genuine. This Barry refused, where
upon the policeman summoned the pa
troll wagon and Mr.. Barry was convey
ed in that vehicle to the police station
An investigation was then made which
resulted in the discovery that Mr..
Rarry's check was perfectly good. Mr..
Barry was of course released from
custody.
Mr.. Saltpeter's defense is that the
officer made the arrest without any
request or suggestion from him.

prised at the manner in which the travelling
men of the country acting in regard to
the interchangeable 5,000-mle ticket for
which they have made such persistent de-
mand. Up to date there have just ten tickets

mand for the tickets it is almost certain
that the Western lines would at their COM
ing meeting in this city have placed the tick

do not feel there is any cause for the frantic

Long Wait for Her Return.

Charles Joseph Faulhaber's wife deserted
her husband twenty-four years ago this very
month and Mr.. Faulhaber has never seen
her since, nor does he know whether she is
dead or alive. At least that is the substance
of a complaint filed in the district court
yesterday, in which Mr.. Faulhaber asks for
a divorce from Matilda Safstrom Faulha-
Der.
The couple was married in Minneapolis in
the month of March, 1872. The plaintiff de-
clares that the wife deserted him in less
than year; that he has never seen or heard
of her since, though he diligently sought to
learn her whereabouts by advertising and
other methods. Mr.. Faulhaber is forty-nine
years of age, and Mrs. Faulhaber, if living
is about fOrtY-seven years old.
