EVIDENCE NOT
STRONG ENOUGH
Man Suspected of Stealing
$4,000 From the United
States Set Free by Court.

Chicago. Sept. 10.-George W. Fitz-
gerald, accused by the state authorities
of the theft of $4,000 from the United
States sub-treasury here, was freed by
Judge Chetlain today. United States
Sub-treasurer Baldenwreck. acting on
instructions not TO disclose EVIDENCE
gathered by the federal authorities,
took the stand and refused to testify.
Judge Chetlain thereupon dismissed the
case.
When the sensational theft was dis
covered Fitzgerald was suspected by
the federal authorities. but they ulti-
mately dropped that lead for lack of
discriminating evidence. A private de-
tective later worked on the case for Mr..
Baldenwreck personally, and secured
alleged evidence on which Fitzgerald
was arrested recently on a state war
rant.
At the United States district attor-
neys office it was asserted that the
evidence was insufficient to convict.
This was followed yesterday by in
structions that federal employees should
not testify. Without this evidence it
was impossible to show the basic fact
that a crime had been committed.
No further court action is contem-
plated
