ONE OF THE BURGLARS.
Rev. Abromaitis Makes Positive IdentiH
cation of Suspect.

cation of "a Suspect.
Michael Wills, alias Jack Spade, alias THE
Spider" is a prisoner in the lookup, charged
with being one of the burglars who entered
and robbed the church and parsonage of st.
Georges Lithuanian Roman Catholic congre-
cation al three o'clock on Sunday morning,
last, and with having threatened to kill the
priest, Rev. Peter Abromaitis if he uttered
an alarm or refused to tell where his valu-
abes were.
Wills is a rather good looking man of 80
or 35 years of age, but there is in his coun-
tenance that sharp, shrewd, flashing look
that characterizes the countenanCe of an ex-
perienced and desperate crook. He wears n
well-worn pair of pantaloons, light colored
but considerably soiled overcoat with a
much worn brown velvet collar and a dark
blue cap. Wills was arrested in a
winter shanty at Brownsville yester.
day mornining by Policeman Thomas
Boln and Chief Burgess Tabor He
was kept prisoner in the lookup until this
afternoon pending efforts to arrest others sus-
pected fol the same buTglaries The prisoner
is tall and well put together. His GOODNESS at
times bsrders on defiance Where do YOU
live2" asked the Chief Burgess this morn
ing. our duty is to make arrests and not
ask questions was tho prisoners answer
Wills was taken to the parsonage at two
O'Clock this afternoon Several suspects had
previously been taken before Rev. Abro-
maits, but he failed to identify them. As
soon as he saw Wills he was positive in his
Identification. Wills was just as positive in
protesting his innocence. Rev Abromaits
was positive that Wills was the
man who asked him whore his
his money and watch were, searched his
pockets and threatened to blow open the safe.
lie also said Wills was the man who threat
ened to fill his head with bullets if he gave
an alarm. His Identification of Wills by ap-
pearance and voice was very positive. Wills
protested that he was never in the parsonage
before and never saw the priest before.
Look again - exclaimed the prisoner.
Look carefully. You may be sending an
innocent man to prison" To this Rev. Abro-
MATHS replied, Yes l know you"
Wills was returned to the lookup pending
arrangements to give him a hearing. He
refuses to talk about himself, except to saw
that his right name is Michael Wills, that he
was raised in this town, and it is useless to
try and hunt up any of his friends here be-
cause they don't want to have anything to do
with him.

Information comes from Greenfield that
the suit of Macy Baupre against the Citi-
zens' Street-rairoad Company will be called
for trial again on Sept. 10. This is one of
the most unique damage suits ever tried in
the State. This will be the fifth trial Of the
case. Mrs. Beaupre, who is a resident of this
city, was injured four years ago while get
ting off car at Washington street and Sem
ate avenue. She brought an action against
the Street-car Company for $4,000 damages.
The case was first tried here, the plaintiff
receiving verdict for $500. The verdict
was set aside by the court, and the case
was taken to Danville. On the first trial of
the case in Hendricks county the jury dis
agreed. 1t was tried again there, and Mrs
Beaupre received a substantial verdict. A
new trial was granted, and change of ven
lie Was taken to Greenfield. The case was
tried there last spring and verdict of 81,
500 given in favor of the plaintiff. This YER
dict was unsatisfactory to the court, and
now the case is to be tried again.
AS one attorney asserted during the last
trial, about the only thing for the court to
consider in the Beaupre case is the credi-
bility OF two sets of witnesses. Mrs. Beau
pre- produced many witnesses VINO testified
that she Signaled the conductor to stop the
car. The car slowed up, but as she stepped
from the platform the car lurched forward,
and she was thrown to the pavement. The
many witnesses who swore that Mrs. Beau
pre-, without indicating that she wanted to
get off, stepped from the car while it was
running.

DECISIONS WIDE EFFECT
MAY AFFECT HUNDREDS OF CASES
on CRIMINAL COURT DOCKET.
Judge STcCray Discharges Charles
Owen, Indicted for Horse Stealing
The Prosecutors Protest.

In the Criminal Court yesterday Judge
McCray made ruling on the motion to dis
miss the case against Charles Owens, a
young man of good family, who was charged
with horse stealing. Owens was arrested in
1895 and was tried in October of that year.
His people reside at Bloomington, Ind, and
1t is claimed the family is well known as
one OF high responsibility. Owens was en-
gagged In horse trading, and sold an animal
IN THIS city that was recognized as the
property of a Marion county farmer. Owens
always claimed he bought the horse. When
his case came to trial a number of the best
known men Of Monroe county came here to
testify as to his previous good character.
Among those who came in his behalf was
Nat U. Hill, a Bloomington banker and we'll
known citizen of the State
The jury which tried Owens's case failed
to reach an agreement, and the accused
man has since been out on bond. In fact,
he at no time after his arrest was locked
up. A few days ago the state set down his
case for rehearing, and it was to have come
up this week Owens's attorney filed a mo-
ton to dismiss the case on the ground that
three regular terms of court have passed
since the first trial without the prisoner
being arraigned This fact, 1t was claimed.
was sufficient to wipe the off the
docket. The state filed counter motion,
in which it was argued that the defendant
attorney had made no application for the
discharge of the accused until after the case
had been set down for retrial; that the ac-
cused had at no time asked for a trial, and
that the state had reached the case at the
earliest possible time.
Judge McCray sustained the motion Of the
defense and dismissed the case against
Owens. The court remarked that as Owens
had been once tried and has since been con-
Quoting himself as a good citizen, he could
not see how the interests of the public could
be subserved by further prosecution.
States Attorney Wiltsie and Deputy Pros
ecutor Afford were surprised at the court
decision, as they considered the case a most
important one. Mr.. Wiltsie says there are
nearly three hundred similar cases on the
docket, and in view of the courts decision
there is nothing to prevent all these defend
ants coming into court and demanding their
discharge on the same ground.

CHICAGO WESTERN LEAGUE TEAM.
This Is Apparently a Certainty for
Next Season.

The plan for the changing of the Western
League circuit for next year is gradually
being worked out according to the arrange
ment printed some time ago in the Journal.
Chicago has, it is said, been assured of
place in the league, and already President
Jimmy Hart has made his first grab for
players. That the Chicago Western League
team will be an out-and-out farm for the
National League team of that town cannot
be denied. Already Hart has filed claims
for the services of Wolverton, the star
third baseman of the Columbus team; Rett-
ger, the Milwaukee pitcher; Tom Daily, now
playing Milwaukee's second base and for
merry a catcher on the Chicago team;
Phyle, the St Paul pitcher, and Williams,
the fast third baseman of the Cowboys.
Evidently Hart does not intend to have
"tail-ender' representing Chicago in the
Western League, as it is a certainty such
team could not draw there in opposition
to the fast City League teams. All the
have been claimed for the National League
team, but 1t is a certainty they will not be
used there None of them, except, possibly
Wolverton, IS up to National League form
and the logical conclusion is that they are
to be used in the new Western League
team.

RESULT OF TWO AUTOPSIES.
MIR. WelIman's Teeth FOund-Cause of
Tweedie's Death.

Coroner Brayton held two autopsies yes
terday, one over G. r. Wellman and the
other, in the case of L. P. Tweedie, the
golf instructor at the Country Club The
theory of the false teeth in the case of
Mr.. Wellman was entirely exploded, as the
teeth have since been found. His death was
a result of congestion of the lungs.
In the second case the coroner decided
that rupture of the spleen, preceded By
chronic alcoholism, was the cause. The
rupture it is thought, was caused by
Tweedes falling from bed Saturday morn
heavily during the day.
