DOCTOR, ILL, ARRESTED
ON CHARGE OF LARCENY
Prosecution of Invalid Denounced by
His Friends, Who Declare Ac-
ton Is Result of
Spite

DR.. o. NJ. Orlow, elderly and in poor
health, was arrested yesterday at his
home, 1929 South Grand avenue, on a
charge of larceny preferred by a rug
dealer, ]. Kaljean.
Although friends of DR.. Orlow de-
nounced the arrest as an outrage and
declared it had been brought about by
a real estate deaIer who sought re-
venge, the defendant was held bv JUS
tive Summerfield awaiting a prelimin-
ary examination.
DR.. Orlow's condition was such that
it was deemed necessary to take him
to a sanitarium, whittier he was accom-
panied by an officer.
The trouble grew out of the purchase
of rugs on which there was a balance
due. Although the doctor has consid-
cradle property. his affairs have become
somewhat involved, it is said.
The evident desire of those seeking to
have the doctor prosecuted, to secure
undue publicity, lends support to the
statement of Orlows friends that the
mans enemies are attempting to perse-
cute him.

His plea for probation was not grant
ed by the court. Judge Wilbur said;
You married two other women besides
your legal wife. You have two chill
dren, and don't see how you can right
any wrong in that respect" q.
The judge questioned Wilde about a
term he had served in a military pris-
on for desertion from the army. Wilde
confessed he had been confined because
he overstayed a furlough, through no
fault of his.
A stay of execution was granted un-
til Monday to allow Wilde to settle
some of his affairs.
Wilde's wife was the only one of the
trio of wives who was in the court
room when sentence was passed. She
followed him into the hallway and at
tempted to speak to him, but was re-
strained by a deputy sheriff, who had
him in charge. She was told she could
