A HUGE GOLDEN EAGLE
CAPTURED BY POLICE
On the Streets Of Canton at MIdnght-Took Three
Cops to CORRAL the Noble Bird

One of the most remarkable cap
lures ever made by the Canton police
was that of Ohicers Ryan, Dickes and
Piero last night about midnight at
the corner Of Second and Cherry
streets. In responding to call that
did not pan out, they discovered a
large black object upon the street
that in the darkness looked like a
mans oyercoat. Ryan stopped down
TO pick it up, when 10. the thing ex-
panded and rising into the air like
flying machine sailed up the street
and again settled down upon the
snow. 1t then dawned upon the Of
flcers that the thing was a huge bird.

further into Mrs. Chadwick's affairs
for the double purpose of uncovering
her alleged accomplices and locating
If possible the place where the i'm
mense sums of money she is alleged
to have borrowed has gone. President
9. l.. Beckwith, of the Oberlin bank,
was the most important witness. He
low his wife to accompany him to the
jury room but the request was refused.
The faithful woman took a seat out
side of the jury room door and patient
waited until her husband was excused.
The couple then made their way to
the county jail and were admitted to
Mrs. Chadwick's cell. The meeting
between the prisoner and her alleged
victim was declared by Sheriff Barry
to be exceedingly polite and even cor
dial
Beckwith was the first to break the
ice by saying:
"You have got us into an awful
fix. It looks now as If it wsre about
time for you to talk and tell all. You
know you have ruined us. You know
have stood by you to my last dollar
and | want you to tell all.
To this plea of her husband Mrs
Beckwith added her own. To both
Mrs. Chadwick repeated the oft made
statsment that all would come out
right in the end. Beckwith then made
eager inquiries relative to Judge o.
colt. Mrs. Chadwick replied that she
had not heard from him since shs had
left New York, but in a significant
manner informed the aged banker that
Judge OlcOtt was of the same opinion
that he had always been. This an.
swer was givan to the direct question
of Beckwith and evidently meant
much to him for he looked very much
relieved.
Arrangements have been made for
the arraignment of Mrs. Chadwick in
court on Monday at which time she
will be required to plead. The date OF
her trial will thsn in all probability
he fixed. She will be arra!gned before
Judge Wing. 1t is improbable, Dis
trict Attorney John J. Sullivan said to-
day, that the rest of the charges
against her can BE- reached before Feb,
ruary.
Referee in Bankruptcy Harold Rem
mington has under consideration the
question whether or not he has the
right to restrain the Savings and De-
posit Bank and Trust company of
Elyria from disposing Of the personal
property of Mrs. Chadwick now held
by it under a chattel mortgage. With
view of settling this question the
bank fled a suit today asking that the
mortgage be foreclosed and the prop.
erty sold.
Mrs. Chadwick has not fled an an,

proceedings and has one more week

should make this an invariable rule,
never to employ new men in case of a
strike but to wait patiently for the old

In special branches. this policy is
impossible, such as in street and other
railways and wherever the daily wants
