Evidence Not Sufficient.

and rubber to the value of about
$50 from the American Smelling &

the grand jury.
Special Officer James q. GaIlagh-
er, of the American Smelling & Re-
fining Company. secured evidence
against Counich, but Recorder Ke-
hoe held 1t was hardly sufficient to
insure an Indictment against the
man should the case be brought be-
fore the grand jury. Gallagher tes-
titled that he found copper ore and
rubber taken from the A. S. & r.
plant In trunk fellow hoarders
said belonged to Counich. The lat
ter denied the trunk in question be-
longed to him.
The loot was recovered through
the efforts of Officer Gallagher and
Patrolman l.. G. Jensen. The former
obtained search warrant and
searched Counich's boarding house.
Three trunks were opened and In
the bottom of the one said to belong
to Counich, hidden under some

the appropriation asked for, as they
deem $4,000 Is needed for equip
ment and maintenance of two up-to-
date Fairgrounds. In setting that
figure they did so with the expecta-
tion that the Board of Aldermen
would grant them the full amount,
