DROP BACK INTO THIRD

Tacoma's defeat at the hands of
the Canucks has enabled the In
dams once more to slide into third
place with it's percentage of .512.
The Indians didn't play. But the
Tigers are behind us once more,
and as they are playing Vancouver,
the leaders, it looks good for the
Indians to stay in third place
awhile. They play in Aberdeen
this week.
The Cats always did have it on
us considerably, but at that, the
way Vic Holm is pitching, we
should get as good as an even
break on the series. Holm will
probably pitch two of the games.
When a pitcher is in good condi-
ton, Captain Billy Hulen believes
in working him. Wright and KILL
lay should each win a game.

Pitsfeld, Dec 23.--On, a warrant
charging him with the larceny Of 1920
from Going Wo of West street Ho
Bias. a Chinaman who recently opened
an oriental store in the Y NJ. G.. A.
building on the corner of North and
Melville streets. was placed under ar
rest last evening. Going Wo, who con
ducts laundry on West street claims
that through alleged misrepresentat-
ions as to the amount of'business Bae
was doing the latter had induced him
to invest money in the store under the
assurance that there would be large
profits. Bias claimed that Wo bought
ahNlhtQrhst in the business for $240
and that later Wo was permitted to
draw out $40. Business had been bad
Bas claimed, and not enough money
was taken i'm to pay the expenses.
Bfs was arraigned In the district
court this morning and pleaded not
guilty He was represented by Law
yer Moore Lawyer ElsueT appeared
for the commonwealth The witnesses
were an Cinnamon but one b. NJ
Pofers of Dalton who testified for the
commonwealth. The testimony was
taken through am interpreter who is
employed I'm the chop suey restaurant,
ON West street
NO testified that Bias came 20 him
before he opened the store and told
him Doe was TO establish an oriental
store similar to one he had conducted
I'm other cities Wo claimed that Bias
represented TO him that he was TO put
in between $4,000 and $4,000 worth OF
stock and If he would invest $3.50 he
would be given a share Of the profits.
He said he advanced 1920 but had not
received any profits nor had Bias kept
his word i'm regard to the amount of
stock in the store.
Hing Cav the Chinaman who mar
ried Miss Elizabeth Wilson a year ago
last fall who is now known as Cav
Tau was a witness for the common
wealth. He was also induced TO take
an interest in the store conducted by
Bias and had started civil proceedings
10 recover his money. The case was
set for a hearing for Saturday but
some settlement has been made and
the case will never be tried.
Bias In his defense claimed that Wo
was taken into the business as a part
ner in the regular way and had the
papers to show that a partnership eX-
isted between them. He claimed that
the reason Wo did not get any share
of the profits was because there were
no profits. In the few weeks the store
has been open the receipts have been
but 500 while the expenses have
amounted to more than 800.
Judge Burke was of the opinion that
there was nothing irregular in the
partnership and discharged Bias.
