closeted there with the Governor.

WEIGH RECEIVERS
PART OF PLUMBER
Traces the Pittsville Cigar
Transaction Of Ohlmstedt and
Baker to Minneapolis and
Rounds up the Evidence
Against Accused Men.

M. L. Ohlmstedt, the Arpin well
driller, was given hearing on the
charge of stealing the cigars from the
Oftle-Stondahl Land Co. at Pitts
vile, on Feb. 6, before Justice Brown
this morning. 1t was foregone con-
clusion that the defendant would be
bound over to the Circuit Court, as
the evidence against Ohlmstedt and
Geo. Baker is practically unbroken.
Connected with this cigar theft
there is an interesting story, which
carried Sheriff Welch over good deal
of territory. The trip, however, re-
suited in the saving of about 5000 of
the $4,000 cigars stolen.
On the night of Feb. 6, the office of
the Oftle-Stondahl Land Co., at
Pittsville, was broken into and $1,000
cigars stolen, by Ohlmstedt and Baker.
They were well prepared to cover up,
having engaged a rig in which they
stored the cigars, and the same night
drove to Elm Lake. At this place on
the morning of the 7th, they expressed
the cigars to r. A. Williams, at
Minneapolis. Immediately thereafter
they returned to Arpin, and left on
an early morning train for Min
neapolis, where they called at the ex-
press office, enquired for the cigars
consigned to r. A. Williams, paid ST
charges, and started out to dispose of
their plunder.
They finally succeeded in disposing
of their goods to man on Second
street south, in that city, by the name
of John Hart, who conducted a saloon,
restaurant and hotel, for the sum of
$50. Hart, however, became suspi-
cious, and notified the police who ar
rested Ohmstedt and Baker. They re-
piled to the questions put to them
that they were tobacco growers
located at Elm Lake, and that they
had become overstocked, and had
their tobacco made up, in order that
