WIENER AVOIDED STATE PRISON
Skipped Bail of 900 Having Been Convicted Of Horse
Stealina-Crocker Given Chance by the Court
Chicken Case on Trial.


1t became generally known on Tues
day that Leon Weiner. who was con-
vlcted with two others of horse steal
ing, had skipped, when State Attorney
ii. A. Hull asked that the bond be
called in that case. Judge Reed grant
ed the motion, and the bond of $4,000
winch was In cash and furnished by
Frank Hertz of this city, will be turn
ed over to the state. Weiner lived
IN Chesterfield and also New London.
AT the former place he had farm
where Abraham Needles and Harry
Epstein brought two horses and other
property which was stolen outside of
Providence. Needles pleaded guilty
and on trial the other two were con-
Victed of horse stealing and sentenced
to state prison, from which appeals
were taken. Weiner was at first
placed under $4,000 bonds. but went to
jail, being unable to furnish it. Later
the amount was reduced to $4,000,
which he furnished and was given
his liberty. The decision of the SUI
preme court of errors to which the ap-
peal was taken upheld the \actiton of
the superior court, finding no error.
When Weiner was sought in New
London he could not be found and is
among the missing.
Croker Given Year.
Later in the day, Royal Croker,
who was Jointly with L. White, indict-
ed for the theft of liquors from the
w. H. Farrell company of New Lon
don entered a plea of guilty Counsel
in his behalf said that he was the
son of former New London clergy
man, but his parents are both dead.
He has always had good reputation,
and it was stated that he would be
able to get work at once if allowed
to. State Attorney Hull spoke of him
as young man, next to the oldest in
a family of several children He had
done various things about the city,
and finally got saloon. From that
he freauented gambling places, neg
lected his family and wound UP by
taking liquors. which he turned over
to White at a ridiculously low price.
He thought the young man intended to
do better. He thought it better that
he should be providing for his family
than serving time in Jail.
Judge Reed sentenced him to Jail
for one year and suspended the sem
tence, providing the probation officer
could get work for him at once. If
not, he will consider the matter fur
Their. The case against White had
previously been continued until the
next term.
