Sheriff Thomas Morris, who is

damages brought by Lewis Plug
radt for false Imprisonment, filed
his answer to the complaint in the
superior court yesterday, stating
that he was justified in holding
Plugradt in the county jail as he
had the necessary papers to do So
Morris is sued for $1,000, and
Chief of Police Dudley and two city
detectives are each sued for the
same amount.
Plugradt was arrested in Taco

of stealing a team of horses. 1t
was learned after he had been
taken to that place that it was

Last evening Miss Flynn, who
