HUNGRY, HE STEALS BULLION
Explanation of Man Caught in Theft
of Metal at the Smelling
Works.

An unsuccessful effort to steal a large
disk OF bullion, mostly copper, with prob
ably a little gold in It. resulted In the cap
turn Of one OF the thieves, John Peto, and
his being sent TO Jail for fifteen days on
the charge OF petit larceny. The other man
made his escape and it is not known
whether or not he took any OF the metal.
Neither Of the men knew just what he
was stealing. and Peto told the judge in
police court Saturday morning that he
stole because he was hungry.
That the bullion was of great value Is
discounted by the fact that in the larceny
complaint filed against Peto by the city
prosecutor at the request OF the smelter
officials, gave the value Of the metal as
S4.60. although no one knows its exact
value, and 1t Is said that there was a
percentage of gold In the pig"
Chief OF Detectives Canada OF the Union
Pacific railroad says that Peto is probably
one Of a large gang of petty thieves who
make a business of stealing in the rail-
road yards and on the river bottoms, SELL
ing their plumber at a great discount 10
junk dealers and second ham men. An
effort will be made TO catch the rest Of the
thieves and break up the practice.
The coarse bullion house in the smelter
yards was the place where Peto and his
partner secured the metal Friday night.
John Swodody and a man named Telinek
saw them leaving the place and caught
Peto. officer Hell and Detective Dunn
brought him to the police station.
