evening returned a verdict OF mot
guilty" in the q of the state against

the theft Of ticket to Glyndon, val
ued at So cents, about two weeks ago.
After a number Of delays the prelim-
mary hearing was called before JUS

q jury trial and the hearing of the tes-
timony began shortly after / o'clock.
The stories OF the witnesses were
rather conflicting and there was a
cloud of doubt from beginning to end.
Al feature of the case was that the

priated bore two selling dates and was
sold even after 1t had been bulletined.
as a ticket which had been lost The
defendant insisted from the first that
he made a mistake In selling the bulle-
tined ticket and that he had no In
tention Of appropriating the ticket and
that the buyer Of the ticket the first
time must have lost 1t, was picked UP
and found its way to the ticket office.

AS ACCOMPLICE
r. M. RICE DETAINED LAST NIGHT
ON A WARRANT CHARGING
COMPLETELY IN CONNECTION
WITH THE THEFT or $3.50 FROM
r. M. PATTERSON.

Frank M. Rice, farmer OF this
county, was arrested about II o'clock
last night on a warrant charging him
with completely In the holding up of
one r.. M. Patterson, last Saturday
night on the outskirts Of the city,
when Patterson was relieved OF bills
and currency to the amount of about
$500, money which Rice is alleged 10
have paid Patterson few hours be-
fore the alleged holdup. One 8. Linz
de, an employee of Rices Is also under
arrest.
At a hearing before ]. M. Witherow,
court commissioner, the bail of the
two men pending full preliminary
hearing has been fixed at $4,000 each,
The bonds have been prepared by
Attorney MardeD, retained by MT
Rice, and they will likely be approved
by the county attorney this evening
as he is out of town today.
Mr.. Rice come to town from his
home in Moland township yesterday
afternoon, with his wife and other
members of his family who we're to
take the late train from Fargo to Iowa
After seeing his people away Mr.. Rice
with a little son, returned to Moor
head where the warrant was served
on him Immediately. Mr.. Rice had no
intention to leave town, in fact, 1T was
his intention to return to his farm
home at Moland in his machine, last
night.
Last Saturday night Mr.. Rice and
Mr.. Patterson, whom the former had
paid Off that day, were driving to
Moorhead. When about two miles
from town they were stopped by a
man who was armed. After skir-
mish the man took possession of the
team and buggy in which Rice and
Patterson were driving and drove
away with it. Hidden In the seat OF
the buggy was the $500 belonging to
Patterson. Rice and Patterson has
tened to Moorhead and reported the
matter to the police. The next day
Sunday, the buggy was found aban-
doned, but the hidden money was
missing. Upon later information the
police arrested one Linde an employe
on the Rice farm and since then cir
cumstantial evidence has been gather
ed that instead of a holdup the officials
have formed q theory that the whole
affair was a Job framed up by some
body to relieve Patterson of his $500
Friends of Mr.. Rice don't believe
that he was a party to the affair, that
he is simply a victim of circumstances
He is a prosperous and well-appear-
ing farmer, educated, and not at al
like a man who would allow himself
to become party in scheme such
as has been reported, as he has toe
much at stake. Mr., Rice will be
represented by Senator Marden.

RING MOTHER HAD
GIVEN HIN SOLD.
GEORGE eRoAT ARRESTED FOR
SELLING PHoNY JEWELRY-
EACH RING HE TRIED TO SELL
WAS ONE HIS MOTHER HAD
GIVEN HIM BEFORE SHE DIED.

This afternoon Officer Martinson Of
the local police force arrested George
Groat on the charge Of peddling and
being slightly intoxicated.
Groat worked a smooth scheme on
pedestrians who were crossing the
bridge and evidently thought he was
exempt from being arrested because
he was working the bridge. He was
trying to sell for cash some phony
rings, or secure a loan OF some money
on them for small amounts.
Persons crossing the bridge would
be stopped by Groat who would ex-
plain to them that he was hard up
and needed some money He would
present ring as security, and explain
that ii was very valuable to him, not
for its intrinsic worth but because
his mother had presented him with
the ring before she died. He would
explain further his condition ana
want to sell the ring. In some cases
he simply wanted to borrow money
on the ring, as he would not part with
it for good, desiring to redeem 1t later.
Just how many people he worked is
not known He had friend in the
gag, getting rid of one ring. and then
producing another, which was always
accomplished by the same tale.
Complaint reached the police head
quarters and an officer detailed to
watch the bridge. Martinson spied
Groat working his graft and when
Groat came over the end Of the bridge
trying to persuade what looked like
favorable prospect for victom, the
officer arrested him.
Groat was much surprised at his
arrest and the officer had some trouble
persuading him to go to the station.
He had a number of phoney rings, all
looking to be good. on his person when
arrested.
Efforts will be made to arrest his
partner.
