POLICY PLAYERS TRIAL
HARRY sANDERs's CASE WENT To
THE JURY AT @ O'CLOCK.
stephen Jewell, N CoIored witness,
Somewhat Befogged-A Lively Tilt
Between Lawyers.

Harry Sanders. arrested on July by De-
tectives Holtz and Wallace on the charge
OF engaging in the policy business, was
tried yesterday afternoon in Police Court
by jury. Sanders was defended by Attor-
ney Frank McCray. The case occupied all
afternoon and the jury retired at 6 o'clock
TO deliberate.
Captain Gerber. of the detectives was the
first witness called. In the Introduction of
his testimony lively scene was inaugu-
rated by the objections made TO the ques-
tions of Prosecutor Collins. McCray at the
conclusion OF Captain Gerber's testimony
moved that the evidence be stricken out
because. he said, it had been given while
the prisoner was in the custody of the de-
tectives just prior to his arrest Acting
Judge Cass Connoway overruled the OBJ
lection. After this McCray on the slight
est provocation entered one objection after
another. Detective Holtz followed Captain
Gerber on the stand and the same scene
was enacted. but McCray profited little by
his energy.
Stephen Jewell. colored man, who was
the cause OF Sanders's arrest. was next
placed on the stand, and the array of ques-
lions put by the prosecutor and the attor-
ney for the defendant had tendency to
befog the mental processes OF the witness
1t was with difficulty that anything definite
could be CLEANED from him. Jewell was
the man who went into Duncan's barber
shop on East Washington street on July 3
and made a play in a policy game with
Sanders. During the trial there was intro
duced a small piece OF white paper on which
were written some figures. This Te-
well said, was his play" for the day,
and for this privilege he gave Sanders
Is cents. The detectives at the time of
Sanders's arrest also took Jewell into
custody. He has been In Jail since on &C
count OF not being able TO obtain bail. His
home Is in Muncie and he was detained
here for the trial. Since the arrest the case
has come up several times. but each time
has been postponed
The following composed the jury: James
W. Feagler, John Daley, A. J. Smith, AL
bert Armstrong. Robert NJ. Dunlop, John
Sturm. Charles Reagan. .. f. Downey, r.
G. Williams. T.. s. Shellhouse, Frank Linde-
mann and l.. A. Jackson.
The jury had been out but short time
when II was ready TO return its verdict.
After the members were brought back into
court the verdict was announced, and San
ders was found guilty and fined $40 and
costs. The total will amount TO So.

TWO NARROW ESCAPES.
Young Man and Woman Drove Be-
tween Cars on Washington street.

An unknown young man and woman
last night at II o'clock were driving horse
on Washington street and attempted TO
cross Meridian street. AS they did so an
East Tenth-street car turned off Washing
ton street on to Meridian street. Within
few feet was a North Indianapolis car
starting west. The young man drove be-
tween the cars and the Tenth-street car
struck one of the rear wheels of the buggy.
The rig was thrown around, but the occu-
pants were not thrown out, although both
were seen to rise in their seat. The horse
was forced around TO the south by the col
lision and continued down Meridian street
at a gallop.
The couple drove down to Maryland
street, then to Pennsylvania and again to
Washington street. AS they attempted
again TO cross Virginia avenue South
East-street car going south and a Shelby
street car coming north almost caught the
rig between them. The Shelby-street car
hit the rear of the buggy, but, as in the
first instance. no damage was done and the
horse went out East Washington street at
a lively pace
