Police Court.
There is but one lone name on the
docket this morning and that is a most
| familiar name, known in these parts as
Alice Conley. She WAS using very
quarreling with and Night Captain
Bsndy picked her up for that offense.
She will be tried this evening.
Arthur Ealand, foreman of the q. H.
bridge and building crew, appeared
at police headquarters this morning to
| look up the arrest of the man Guadalu-
pc Magallsnes, charged with stealing
| a saw from his department of the g. h.
| Arthur is u matter of fact sort of man
and when asked to make a COM
plant against the supposed
thief he said be could not.
When asked what his seasons
| were Mr.. E slsnd very intelligently re-
marked: 81 have no cause to make a
com plant. The first l knew my saw
had been stolen was when | read it in
| find the man that intercepted the thief,
but no one will acknowledge that he
did this act. This morning | missed a
| trowel and, suppOsipg the man was still
| in jail, l came here to try, if posi- BILE,
to iden sify him as one of my employees. -
Mr.. Ealand was informed that
the man was at the county jail
and the HERALD reporter Volup
| tered to accompany him to that place
He consented and the two went there.
At the Jail the circumstances were eX-
planned to Mr.. Jones and that gentle
man kindly escorted them to the cell
occupied by the accused Mexican. Mr..
Ealand could not talk Spanish, neither
could the culprit talk English. The
Chinese cook WAS brought in as an in
terpreter. 1t might be well right here
30 state that this Mexican accused of
| this theft has the reputation of being
! very smooth with his tongue and even
more smooth with his fingers.
Mr.. Ealand asked: "YOu were found
with a saw belonging to my department
in your possession, were you nOt?'
The accused thief said at first that
he got it from the L. p. A few ques-
tions passed and the accused thief ac-
knowledged that he had been accused
of taking the saw from the G. 81. yards
| and that mad found it. The Chinaman,
who was interpreter, in his own brok-
en- language, after worrying with the
accused for quite a while, said: "Him
no good: him tell nothing; him rascal. j"
That is the opinion of all who claim to
know this accused Mexican. He, as
| the evidence goes, is thorough ras-
| cal and has been recognized as such
