MILLER DENIES ALL
Says He Bought Only One Lot Of
Rags of 0mer Gilbert.
Came FrOm-Snid Gilbert Gave
Fictitious Name and Claimed lie
Was from Richmond.

At hearing in city court Mon
morning S. II. Miller. proprietor of the
Green Mountain Junk Co.. made "a COM
plete denial of the charge that he had
bought stolen rags from Omer Gilbert,
the youth who has pleaded guilty to an
information charging him with stealing
rags from the American Wooden COM
pany at Winooski. The hearing was de-
voted entirely to the defense, the State
having completed its case several days
ago. In addition to Mr.. Miller's testi-
mony evidence was taken from two other
men. Oscar Shepard, a driver for the
American Wooden company. and jacob
Iscowtz. an employe at Mllers shop.
Mr.. Shepard was the first witness. He
testified to being at the saloon with Gill
bert, having brought the latter to Bur-
iington from Winooski in his team. Mr..
Shepard's principal testimony was that
he did not ask Miller If he wanted to
buy any cloth as was stated at a former
hearing by Gilbert.
When Mr. Miller took the stand he
said that he first saw Gilbert in May
when he came to Burlington with a few
bags of rags which he offered for sale
Mr. Miller said he looked them over and
offered five cents per pound which was
accepted after some argument. He said
there were not 400 pounds but that he
gave Gilbert a check for $50. He said
| that Gilbert told him he was from Rich
| mond. Mfr. Miller denied that he had
seen Gilbert since that time. He said
he had never seen him in the saloor
| and that he had never told anyone to pu,
rags in the yard at night. He said that
| the only rags he ever bought of Gilber,
were the ones that he brought in bags.
On the cross-examnation there was
| some question as to how many clippings
| had been shipped to dealers by Miller
| and he was asked by States Attorney
| Sherman to produce his books in court
50 that some idea could be obtained
This Mr. Miller said he was willing to do
| At the conclusion Of this testimony Mr.
| IscOwitz WAS called He testified to the
effect that Gilbert brought one lot Of ra 6
| to the shop in hays and that was the only
time he had ever been there. Tscowit2
said he assorted the rags which Gilbert
brought.
