STEELE IS LET OFF
With JAIL SENTENCE
Entered Plea of Guilty to
Charge of Larceny.
WARNED BY THE COURT.

Charles Steele, young man who
has been serving time in the county
Jail for several weeks, appeared in
the circuit court, coming direct from
So and a sentence of thirty more days
in the bastile. He plead guilty to a
charge of petit larceny.
In reading the affidavit in which
the young man was charged with
stealing two trilobites and some old
coins, the face of Deputy Clerk Huey
was wreathed with smiles.
Young Steele was first given a Jail
sentence of sixty days but when he
told Judge Fox that he did not know
the trilobites, stones" he called
them, were of any value and that he
had given one to a bartender and one
to policeman for eepsakes, Judge
Fox reduced the jail sentence to thir-
ty days. Judge Fox gave Steele some
fatherly advice and told him that he
had twice been convicted of petit lar
ceny and that if he were convicted a
third time it would be in the power
of the court to send him to the peni-
tentiary for a life term. Young
Steele recently expressed a willing
ness to serve time in the state pris-
OH, so that the threat and warning of
the court did not seem to have much
effect on him.

MAHER AND MITCHELL ARE U.s.
ING OTHER HOUSES FOR THE
PRESENT AND HAVE NOT Full

Work on remodeling the condemn
ed slaughter houses is progressing rap
idly, and within the course of the next
few days the Holzapfel plant will be in
such shape as to pass government
muster. The building has been white
washed throughout, sidewalks built
and a new cement floor is now being
placed in the butchering rooms. Ev-
cry part of the house will be made TO
conform to the government and city
regulations Maher and Mitchell,
owners of the other condemned slaugh-
tering establishment. are now butcher
ing with other houses and have not
fully decided whether they will erect a
new slaughtering house or not. There
are several things which are at the
present time delaying their decision,
chief of which is whether the South
Side bridge will be erected at any near
date. The new bridge would pass di-
rectly over their present site.
Screens will be placed at all the win
dows and doors of the various houses
to conform with the regulations. AS
yet no one has been appointed to make
the inspection of houses here, prelimi-
inspection. A man is expected here
at any date, however, to look over the
grounds.

CLAIM ARE INNOCENT
OF LARCENY CHARGE
George Fredricks and Tom
Johnson Enter Pleas of
Not Guilty.
KELLEY FOR THE DEFENSE.
BOTH OF THE ACCUSED ARE NICE
APPEARING MEN AND DRESS IN
GOOD STYLE-HAVE BEEN IN
SOLITARY CONFINEMENT.
KELLEY FOR THE DEFENSE

George Fredricks and Tom Johnson,
who were arrested the day the Bar
mum & Bailey circus showed here,
were arraigned in the circuit court.
Under the indictments by the grand
jury Fredricks and Johnson were
charged with stealing bottle of per-
fume from the Quigley & Babylon
pharmacy valued at So and Fredr1cks
was also jointly connected with Frank
Smith of robbing Walter Burden, col
ored of 81 while riding on street car.
Attorney w. H. Kelley appeared for
the defendants and entered pleas of
not guilty to all charges. The amount
of bond for each man and the date of
trial will be fixed later.
Attorney Kelley claims his clients
are absolutely innocent of the char
ges preferred against them and states
that these men have been done great
injustice by the police Mr.. Kelley
said that the authorities at Columbus,
o., and Pittsburg. Pa, both entered
claims for these two men but point
ed to he fact that the police in these
two cities had found it absolutely i'm
possible to identify them or to bring
any evidence against them.
Nice Appearing Men.
Fredricks and Johnson are nice ap-
pearing men and when they appeared
in the circuit court both were attired
in the heighth of fashion. Mr.. Kelley
admits that both Fredricks and John
son are gamblers but denies that they
are common crooks. Prosecutor Jes-
SUP states that a week ago last Satur-
day evening when Burden was rob-
bed on a street car Fredricks was
with Smith, who was arrested that
night by carelessly running down
blind alley. The prosecutor states
that Fredyicks jumped off the street
car when the hue and cry was started
after Smith and that Fredricks made
his escape by running down North
Eighth street.
Some few days ago Sheriff Meredith
learned that Fredricks and Johnson
had Planned jail delivery. He put
them at once in solitary confinement
and they will be held in this manner
until their cases are disposed of. The
cases of these two men probably will
be heard this term of court.
