Fitzgerald Sent to Steilacoom.

| gerald, which resulted in his being
arrested in Spokane for breaking into
postoffice building, and being kept
in Jail until last month, when he was
finally released on bonds, will be re.n-
embered. On his return to Shelton, he
continued to act queer in some respects
but during the past week he grew
worse, until Tuesday afternoon, on
complaint of several business men.
who feared he might break out and
do some damage, warrant was issued
for his arrest. Sheriff Caldwell, with
several others to assist if needed
arrested Fitzgerald on the Bank corner
and after little parley, the latter ac-
companied the Sheriff to Jail. Judge
Hodgdon wa also telephoned for.
During the night Fitzgerald became
very wild, and next morning he tore
of a section of wainscoting and nearly
made his escape into the office room.
With help the sheriff succeeded in get
ting him into the steel cell W here he
was safe. Judge Hodgdon arrived
Wednesday night and after examation
assisted by Drs. Beach and Wells,
Fitzgerald was ordered committed to
the Insane Asylum at Steilacoom.
Sheriff Caldwell, accompanied by
Deputies Jack Doyle and George
Vogtlin took the unfortunate man
off next morning.
Fitzgera1d's trial before the U. S.
Court is set for next month in Tacoma
but as his breaking into the country
postoffice was an insane freak, and
not for the purpose of robbery, it is
likely that he will be allowed to re-
main at the hospital under treatment.
His freaks during Monday and Tues
day, when hewas especially active
about town, would make quite story,
but suffice it to say that no dam age was
done by him, although several persons
with whom he came into contact were
considerably frightened; and with good
reason, for Fitzgerald is a large strong
man, with whom no ordinary man
would care to cope under favorable
conditions. 1t is to be hoped that
treatment at the asylum will improve
his condition.
