MoLLEE MORRIS FRIEND GOT NO
PARDON IN MINNEAPOLIS.

Municipal court clerks of Minneapolis
relates an interesting story apropos Of
the recent sensational Mollie Morris par
don.
In June of 1889 Moll:e Morris and her
companion, Clara Moore, were arrested
fer shoplifting in well known dry goods
store on Nicollet avenue. When taken
to the central station the women were
found to have skirts with deep pockets
adapted to wholesale operations. The
Moore woman was sent to the 1orlkhouse
for ninety days. MolHe Norris however
escaped on a technicaiity.
At the time Judge Holt sentenced the
woman he was ignorant of her true
career and that of her companion But
1t was not long before negotiations began
to be conducted on the part of their
friends similar to the operations of last
week in ST, Paul. The Chicago contingent
was soon on hand with big punches of
money and oratorical effects belaboring
Judge Holt to release the prisoner. The
same sick dodge" and Ignorance of
the bad company she found herself in
were worked on the officials of this city.
But all to no avail. Judge Holt remained
obdurate, refusing to listen to the Chi
cago parties.
The persistence with which the friends
Of this woman followed her case is IL
Holt left the city to enjoy his vacation on
his fathers farm, they still pursued him.
The story is that his honor was engaged
