ing subject OF congregation and sDecula-
ton az 10 the outcome was very rife
From the way the case looks at present.
Mr.. Frazin is out, for the stock il gone
and will be disposed OF before any more
attachment proceeding can be com
menced,
When Mr.. Frazin and his force, who
were IN the store defending il Saturday,
were taken 10 Houghton, the attorneys
for the defense found flaw in the pro
ceedings and the case was dismissed on
the trchnicality and Mr. Frazin, the pro-
prietor, McKinnOn, the athlete and the |
Others who we're taken in by the sheriff |
and his deputies, were allowed their free
dom and returned to this city on the |
next train. They were arrested on a |
''iorclble detainer" proceeding, az il is
termed in law, which gave the sheriff the
authority to arrest Frazin and bring him
before the court forthwith so the sheriff
was justified in breaking IN the store to
arrest his man, for which action he se-
ceiyed considerable criticism about the
city.

Frazin claims the stock TO be worth
$4,000.
