Should it be considered peniten-

this morning was arrested at $50 by
Officers Shepherd and Wilson after
he had crawled in among the hen
boxes and several lumber stacks.
Sullivan was locked up at the sta

the man had no intention of stealing
since the car he entered was an open
grated stock car and nothing Of value
was contained in it.
The man arrested told the officers
he wanted to go west on the freight tc

DIVISION SHEET
RULED OUT
Defense in Ben Marks Case Won
Victory in the Court


UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Ia, Dec. 20
The defense in the Ben Marks case
won victory in the case when the
division Sheet which showed how
the profits of the Mabray gang were
divided, was refused admission in
evidence.
The attorneys wrangled for hours
over the document. 1t was claimed
that this sheet would show that Ben
Marks received certain share of the
profits and that he was supposed to
furnish police protection for the gang.
James Mabray, himself the chief OF
the gang, was on the stand all yester-
day. He said he was in Council
Bluffs in 1898 and 1899, and that then
he had told Marks that the gang was
willing to pay $500 per month for po-
lice protection, but that an eight per
cent profit-sharing arrangement would
be more satisfactory. Mabray said
that he had working agreement
with Marks.
The court rooms have the S. R, o.
