TAUB FOUND GUILTY.
Sentenced 10 Eleven Months In The County Jail for
Larcsm of Waich

Jonas r. Taub who was tried yester-
day on an indictment charging him
with the LARCENY of a watch from Miss
Ida Baur, was found guilty by a jury
in Judge Wilbur's court this morning,
and sentenced to IL months in the coun-
ty Jail. Taub was a frequent visitor to
Miss Baur. and when she was taken i'll
and was obliged to go TO the hospital
she, at Taub's solicitation. let him have
the watch TO have the crystal fixed. He
pawned the watch twice, once under
the name Of Brown and second time
under the name of Smith. Taub's claim
was that the young woman gave him
the watch, as he had been very kind
in looking after her affairs. and the
states claim was he took the watch
with the intention OF never returning
IL.
Miss Baur entrusted her bank book
10 Taub, but she signed no blank
checks. Mr. Taub's attorney argued
to the jury that the return OF the bank
book argued that Taub was an honest
man, but Assistant Attorney General
Charles Il. Stearns told the jury that
Taub's previous experience with checks
which led TO his imprisonment a few
years ago. made Taub careful and Mr..
Stearns also argued that II Taub's in
tentions were honorable he would have
pawned the watch i'm his own name.
The jury was out but a short time.
Taub waived his privilege OF having
sentence delayed seven days. The young
woman the watch was taken from is a

Or. Doly's Report.

His statement concerning his work is:
Tests recently made i'm the labora-
tory OF this department have for the
first time shown that the yellow fever
serum prepared here has both curati ~
and preventive properties.
The investigation as TO the cause
or yellow fever was begun at Quaran-
tine In the spring of 1897, some months
before Professor Sanareli, of Monte
Video, published the result of his ex-
perimental work in this direction. i'm
which, he claimed that he had isolated
the specific organism of yellow fever.
In the spring of 1897 number of
cases OF yellow fever were brought 10
this port and transferred to Swinburne
Island. Autopsies made at this time
furnished an opportunity to test the
value OF SanarellPs work. An organ
ism was soon found, which proved 10
