FROM EASY Street"
TO CELL IN PRISON
Youths Accused of. Robbing
Aged Man Held on
$1,000 Bond.

From taXiCabs and soft beds in hotels,
champagne suppers and chorus girls, to
a prison cell and the somewhat rough
fare accorded to the boarders domiciled
with Warden Mckee, of the District
jail. was the experience of Charles D.
Hickey and James Magruder, arraigned
before Judge Mullowny, in the Police
Court, today. on a charge of having
robbed Francis Griffin, an aged boarder
in the house in which they formerly
lived, of $500.
Each OF the boys entered a plea Of
not guilty, waived examination, and
was held on a bond of $1,000 to await
the action of the grand jury. At a late
hour this afternoon neither of the boys
had given bond and both had been taken
to the jail.
Lead Police Chase.
Ever since Christmas Eve, when
Griffin discovered that the old tin box
in which he had been accustomed to
hoard his money, had been tampered
with and the gold was missing, the po-
lice have been looking for Magruder
and his companion. who disappeared at
the same time.
1t was not until the first part of the
present week that word was received
from Wilkesbarre, Pa, that the boys
were there. Detective BurIingame was
delegated to bring them back, and they
arrived in Washington Thursday night.
According to the statement of Mat
thew O'Brien, the attorney for the boys,
Hickey admits having taken 81, 400 of
the missing money, but declared that he
did not take all of it. Upon leaving this
city the pair went to Baltimore and
Philadelphia, where they say they spent
large portion OF the money with the
help of f. ladies of the chorus and
numerous taXiCahs.
To 0utwit Police.
Less than a week after their disap-
pearanCe had become known, Hickey
told O'Brien that they returned to this
city just for the fun of feeling that they
were outwitting the police. They stayed
here over night and then went to Pitts
ton, Pa, where they remained for some
days until arrested on charges of dis
orderly conduct and carrying concealed
weapons. They paid their fines and
were released, but not before the Wash
ington police had gotten wind of the
TACT that they were in PENNSYLVANIA and
Burlingame was sent in search of them.
When found Hickey had the remains
of the money, some 81, 400, with him, and
the pair do not deny that they spent the
other $1,000, but claim that they only
had s., 100 to start with. Magruder dis
claims any part in the robbery, al
though he admits that he helped TO
spend the money, which went at the
rate of nearly $50 a day

ants in common of a certain tract of
land adjacent to the town of Hood
River Of which they were in possess
sion, complain of the defendants that
the latter being the owners of and
operating various boats and river
craft on the waters of the Columbia
River, upon which the lands abut,
persistently and against the warn
ings, protests and commands of the
plaintiffs continued to land their
boats upon plaintiffs premises not
only daily but several times day
and threaten to and will continue to
make such use thereof, unless re-
strained, all to the great and ire
parable injury of plaintiffs.
The answer denies the title of
plaintiffs to the land but the same
was abundantly proven by record
and was not questioned at the trial
or in the argument. The defendants
admit that they have made use of
the place on the land described in
the complaint and are still making
use thereof as a landing for their
boats and water craft, passengers
and freight, daily and several times
a day, and that they will continue to
make use thereof, but defendants
deny that the said use thereof by the
defendants is to a great or irrepara-
BILE injury of the plaintiffs or that it
is any injury to them or either of
them at all, and deny that the said
use thereof is in violation of the
rights of the plaintiffs or either of
them or that the same is wrongful or
without color of right" Affirmative
ly the defendants allege in substance
that they own and operate a ferry
between Hood River, Oregon, and
White Salmon Washington, under a
license regularly granted by the
county court of Wasco county and
another license granted by the prop
er authorities for Klickitat county,
washington, and that they and their
predecessors in the maintenance and
operation of said ferry have habitual-
ly used the places that the defendants
are now using for a ferry
landing for freight and passengers
and the United States mails for a
period of more than go years with
out interference or objection from
the plaintiffs and their predecessors
in interest, and the use made there
of by the defendants and about which
the plaintiffs now complain and seek
to have enjoined are the same and
similar to the use made of said
premises for period of more than
80 years, and the plaintiffs have
been guilty of laches and are es-
topped from complaining of said acts
at the present time Lastly, they
allege that the general public has
used the premises mentioned and de-
scribed in the plaintiffs complaint at
the points and places therein men
toned and complained of as a ferry
landing and public way, under a
claim of right, adversely, and not by
