BURGLAR 0VERTURNS CHAIR
AND SLEEPER is AWAKENED

Awakened early yesterday morning
by the noise of falling chair, C. F.
Atkinson, living at 500 Westlake ave-
nue., sprang out of bed to find a burglar
in the house. Before he could secure
his revolver the thief jumped out of the
window and fled.
On inspecting the house Mr. Atkinson
found that only two or three rooms
had been ransacked, but the burglar
had evidently been all through the
house. On reckoning up it was found
that the robber had secured a pigskin
purse containing about $35 in gold, a
pair of gold rim nose glasses and a
small record book. Mr.. Atkinson thinks
the robber was going out of the room
when he knocked over the chair.
The robber entered the house through
a rear window, and after going through
the lower floor, came upstairs. He had
evidently not found anything to his
fancy until reaching the bedroom.
Mr.. Atkinson notified the police and
two officers were sent out to make an
investigation.

WINS
CASE FOR DEFENSE
Witnesses Prove That Heather Chinee
Did Not Point Big, Wicked
Gun at Italian
Peddler

Hop Sing, a Chinese huckster who
was arraigned before Police Justice
Rose yesterday afternoon, charged with
disturbing the peace, was discharged.
The testimony of witnesses summoned
by the prosecution cleared the Chinese
OF the charge.
When the prosecution saw the way
the destimony was going an effort was
maze to shut off the evidence and get
the witnesses from the room. The at
torney for the defense saw the move
and held the witnesses, to the chagrin
of the prosecution.
: The trouble was between Sing and d.
Lauchio, a garbage collector. The garb-
bage man asserted that Sing had pulled
gun on him and threatened to use it.
According to the evidence, Sing was
peddling vegetables and his wagon was
in front Of 1927 Downey avenue. The
garbage man came along and told Sing
to move out of the way. Sing refused
to do so, and, according to Lauchio,
said he had as much right there as
Lauchio. AS the Chinese cannot speak
plainly except to call vegetables. and
shutters at that, this appeared doubt
full
Lauchio testified that Sing drew big
gun and pointed II at him with threat
ening motions.
EyeYitnesses of the affair testified
that Lauchio started after the Chinese
with a whip, and said Sing did not
have a weapon of any kind. Sing was
arrested, charged with disturbing the
peace.
AS all the witnesses agreed that the
Chinese had not threatened Lauchio
with the gun, and that Lauchio had
started to use a whip on Sing because
he would not get out OF the way, JUS
tice Rose discharged the defendant.

MORT WHITE TO POOR FARM
Man Of Bibu|ous Tendencies Mag
be Rdiroaded

If the plans of the police department
carry, Mort White, for years familiar
character on the streets of the city,
will be seen no more for it is the inten-
tion to have him taken to the poor
farm.
White, more times than he has hairs
in his head, has been declared a nuis-
ance. Although he mas been declared
an habitual drunkard, he still secures
liquor with which to fill up with.
Women and children who have been
compelled to pass him on the streets
have done so with horror. At any time
during the day his curses and insane
rawlings might be heard. He has al
ways been regarded as harmless. From
being on the street continually men
who were accustomed to hearing White
had come to regard him as part of
their every day life.
For days at a time he has been in
Jail. Deprived of the use of liquor and
compelled to keep clean, the Jail was
still no place for him. So soon as he
would be released lie would take up
his old habits.

The crowd plainly showed it resent

out the state troops.
Union men claim the troops are not
needed and if sent it will have ten
dency to inflame the hoOdlums who
have no connection with the unions
and whom they accuse of being rt-
sponsibe for the acts of violence COM
mitted.
The Oak street barns are again
promising to be the storm center. A
crowd of several thousands gathered
there as early as 9 o'clock. The usual
squad of police is on hand.
The railroad officials had a confer
ence last night and decided to run
cars into the downtown burned dis
trict, but the chief of police inform
ed them he could not give protection
in that district. The plan was there
upon abandoned.
Up to noon no efforts were mace
to run cars.
Three hundred additional strike
breakers from the east are expected
this evening.
Although the street car strike is as
far from settlement as ever, the gem

clarified by the action of the building

data of the railroads and partly from
personal inspection of practically every
miles of road in the state.
The hearing will probably extend
over several months time. The rail-
roads are reported to be already nego-
tiating to have the hearing put off un-
til September, a move which the COM
mission will doubtless oppose. 1t is
possible that after the state has pre-
sented its case il may consent to have
the railroads testimony introduced Ia
ter.
The chief reason for having the case
go on at once is to give the states
experts an opportunity to back up their
figures while the data is still fresh in
their memories.
