YOUTHFUL THIEVES ARE
CAUGHT IN THE ACT
Were Stealing Oats From Pat Mo-
rams Barn and Two Were
Arrested.

Three youths were caught in the act OF
stealing oats from one of the barns be-
longing to Pat Moran. at the rear of the
Crystal bar on First South street below
West Temple. shortly after 10 o'clock last
night The quick and clever work of Pa
trolman Harris resulted in the arrest of
two of the boys. Those arrested gave
their names as William King and George
Smith. Their companion. who made his
escape. could not be located last night.
The trio had driven up to the barn and
were discovered loading sacks of oats into
a buggy by lad living in that vicinity
and who was driving to the barn with
horse kept there Suspecting that THEFT
was being committed. the boy found Pa
trolman Harris and told what ne mad

rear door of the Crystal bar. he was seen
By the youthful robbers. who Immediately
made a break for liberty Harris grabbed
one, and brought the second to halt by
threats to shoot The third one who was
in the loft of the barn. and had been pass
ing down the sacks Of oats. managed to
make his escape In the darkness When
the capture was made three sacks OF oats
were found I'm the buggy
At the station the boys told conflicting
stories. but made a strong bluff at their
own innocence, saying that the buggy was
owned by the fellow who got away and
who they did not know very well. They
the barn with him to take a ride, and they
thought he was taking his own oats
Their nervous manner and bungling sto-
ries left little doubt as to their guilt.
After the boys had been booked at po-
lice headquarters Patrolmen Harris and
Kelly returned to the barn and search
revealed the fact that the robbery had
been planned on a big scale. Eighteen
sacks of oats had been thrown down from
the loft and piled at the door where they
could be loaded into the buggy. Just
where the young men intended to secTete
or dispose OF their plumber was not told
by them.
Shortly after midnight w J. Morton,
residing at Tenth West and Tenth North
streets reported to police headquarters
that his horse and buggy had been stolen
from the corner of First South and West
Temple streets where he had left IT
hitched earlier in the evening. Anticipat-
ing some connection between the missing
horse and the robbery. young King was
brought into Lieutenant Hempefs office.
where when confronted with the owner Of
the horse he admitted that they had
taken the horse and buggy from the cor
ner mentioned for the purpose of hauling
away the oats. This adds to the gravity
of the burglary charge, which had been
already lodged against the two boys.
The horse which had been placed in
stable BIZ the police. was Identified By
Morton as the one stolen from him. King
and Smith still refuse to diyulge the iden-
titv of their accomplfce who escaped.

POLICE COURT CLIMPSES

salt Lake is about to lose on Of its
familiar street characters BY Thursday
the spectacle Of the slim. scantily clad
fellow Of youthful appearance, who for

and night hours, standing with hat i'm

covering staring upwards, will be missing

as Joseph Clinton, has been ordered to
leave the city under penalty of serving
a sentence in the Jail.
Much OF the charity usually shown to-
wards unfortunates. and especially the
blind and crippled, was withheld in Judge
Bowman's court yesterday Afternoon when
Clinton was called to answer to the
charge OF having violated the license or
dlnance by peddling on the streets with
out license or permission. 1t was repre-
scented that Clinton had come to be a
pest, and that prominent business
firms in front of whose places he would
take up his stand. had complained to the
police frequently. Some doubt was raised
to the genuineness Of his sffliction.
and il was said that he was to be found
in saloons in the late hours Of the night.
and that he had been seen TO play pool.
Clinton made a strong plea to be per-
mitted to remain in Salt Lake and plv
his calling Of selling pencils on the streets.
saying that this was his only means of
support for himself and wife. He asked
to be allowed to remain until Saturday,
but would not promise that in the mean
time he would cease soliciting aims on the
streets. Judge Bowman fixed the time
for his sentence on Thursday, intimating
that he should be out of the city by that
time.
