VERY SPIRITED HEARING.
Threats and Damaging Charges Made
by Prominent Italians.

A continuation of the hearing in the
case of Vilo Girardo against Ferdin-
ando Arigoni on a charge of larceny
was held before Alderman Millar Sat-
urday morning and several warm Incl
dents developed.
The case is that which was reported
in Saturdays Tribune where Arigoni,
it is averred, spirited away four horses
and several carts which Girardo claims
as his property. During Saturdays
hearing threats and very damaging
charges were made. AS a result of the
threats Girardo was held in 5000 bail to
keep the peace and Arigoni was requir-
ed to furnish $500 bail to answer the
charge of larceny.
On the point, what shall be done with
the horses until the ownership is de-
cided in court? Alderman Millar found
himself guardian. In justice to the
owner the horses could not be kept
away from him, and especially at this
season when horses are paying prop
erty.
The fine legal problem here involved
was solved by Attorney John j. Muir
ply for the defense. Attorney Murphy
found a passage of law which provides
that the property shall remain with
the person in whose custody it was
found. Arigoni will keep the horses.
