Abbeville, La, April 23.-Joseph Choate, charged with fraudulently obtaining thou sands of dollars from several citizens of this parish to promote plan to dig up a vast treasure, said to have been buried in this locality by Pirate Lafitte, was found guilty on several counts of the indict- ments against him today.

! front of Phipps and asked him In a
whisper as they pointed towards a
well-known Detroit minister, who was
slumbering in a nearby seat, 'Is that
Phipps, the murderer"
Phipps merely smiled in reply, but
it was evident that the title of muir
derer used in conjunction with his
name made him finch considerably,
and Murray was about to explain the
situation to the reporters when the
train started and the two seekers for
information left the car hurriedly. The
news of Phipps coming had gone be.
fore him and when the train reached
Detroit there were nearly two hundred
of his former friends waiting at the
station to see him. The reception they
gave the prisoner testified strongly to
the high tide of popularity in his home
town and Murray felt still more IA
vorably inclined toward the man
whom duty compelled him to hand
over to the grim mercies Of Canadian
law.
"I'll see you fellows at the Michigan
exchange" called out Phipps to his
friends as he followed Murray into a
cab that Chief Bains of Windsor had
waiting for them. 'I'd like to take a
farewell drink there" added the pris-
oner to Murray, and the latter nodded
assent and ordered the cabman to
drive to the barroom in question.
Phipps friends gathered there in full
force and crowded around him, shak-
ing hands and giving vent to loud ex-
pressions of sympathy. Finally Muir
ray delivered himself of short speech
to the crowd that was trenchant and
very much to the point.
Its all very well to be sorry,
boys" said the detective bluntly, but
Phipps needs something more than
that. What he wants is money for his
defense and I'm ready to start a col
lection right now" Murray backed up
his statement by making handsome
donation and the crowd, growing en-
thusiastic over the idea, followed suit,
with the result that comfortably
large sum was soon subscribed and
given to the prisoner. That done Muir
ray asked him If there was any other
place in Detroit he>Fanted to visit be-
fore crossing the river.
I'D like to drive past my old home
on Jefferson street." said the pris-
oner, wistfully.
Many times in after life the detec'
tice was glad that he acceded to this
last request Of his unfortunate pris-
oner. The cab drove along Jefferson
street and Phipps gazed with soul
hungry eyes upon the house wherein
he had once lived SO happily. He
watched It out of the cab window and
then from the window in the back I'M
I'll It had faded from his view.

out of the cemetery, across the road,
through the fields, travelling like an
injured dog, limping on ali fours.
His progress was very slow. His
destination was the river, which he
reached an hour after midnight, and
where he found an old boat, half full
of water. He discovered a piece of
board, crawled into the boat, showed
off and began to paddle. When dawn
was breaking he reached the American
shore, below Detroit, nine miles down
stream, wet to the skin, wounded,
blood-stained and faint But he knew
the country round about and made his
way into the city to the home of
friend, knocked and was taken in,
clothed and fed. When his wounds
were healed and his strength returned,
he left Detroit resolved to enter upon
a new life.
But the Canadian authorities were
not disposed to tamely relinquish the
possession of a prisoner who had
broken their laws and set them at de-
fiance. Orders were issued to capture
Phipps, wherever he might be, and
the task of hunting him down was as
signed to Detective John Wilson Muir
ray.
He sent out a description of Phipps
to police headquarters all over the
continent The fugitive was billiard
room keeper and Murray calculated
that it would be simply a question of
time until his money gave out and he
would be Obliged to look for job in
a billiard room. Every man to his
trade is a maxim that also holds good
in the case of fugitive from justice,
and the detectives surmise proved cor.
rect. Phipps was located in Pullman,
ILL.,, where he had obtained a position
in billiard room. Murray prepared
extradition papers, went to Illinois and
took Phipps from Pullman to Chicago.
In the latter city the fugitive en-
ployed Jesse Ball, an able lawyer, and
made a hard fight against extradition.
His counsel endeavored to show that
the shooting was done in American
waters, and there is no hanging in
Michigan. If the crime had been com.
mitted In American waters, Phipps
would have been tried in Michigan,
and IL convicted, he would not have
been hanged. Murray proved by the
captain of the boat and a number Of
its passengers that the shooting was
done in Canada waters, on the Canada
side of the river. The legal fight lasted
couple of days, both sides calling
witnesses. and Phipps lost. An appeal
was taken and writ of habeas corpus
issued, but the proceeding was dis
missed and Murray and his prisoner
started for Canada.
At Ann Arbor two newspaper men.
after going through the car. stopped in
