Harry Morse Acquitted.

For the second time within the past
few weeks, Harry Morse, was this af-
ternoon acquitted of the charge of
stealing horses. The trial Of the case
occupied less than two days and the
jury was only out little more than
two hours when it returned with its
verdict of not guilty. The defendant
did not deny having had the horses
but he said he picked the animal up
by mistake for the reason that it so
nearly resembled one which he had
formerly owned and which had been
lost.
