Harry Hoffman,, Formerly
of Kenosha, Arrested at
Canton, ILL.,, on Sunday.
SOLD The SHEhiFF'S HORSE

Harry Hoffman,, a dapper horse trad
| er, who formerly was in business in
Kenosha, was arrested on Sunday at
Canton, ILL.,, and he is now in the hands
Eof the sheriff there awaiting his return
to Kenosha to answer charges of selling
mortgaged property. Hoffman is well
known to the horsemen of Kenosha and
when he disappeared suddenly from the
city two months ago there was some
hard skirmishing to get line on him.
Several charges of more or less impor-
lance have been filed with the district
attorney against Hoffman,, but he was
arrested on charge of selling horse
on which Sheriff Achen had chattel
mortgage.
Hoffman came from Chicago to Ke.
nosha and he had good eye for horse
flesh and some of the horses he drove
about the city were the best seen in
Kenosha for some time. He finally got
into a trade with Sheriff Achen pur-
chasing horse from the sheriff for
$3.50. Hoffman, was little short of
money at the time and the sheriff took
chattel mortgage on the horse in lieu
of the cash. Later Hoffman, sold the
horse to Elmer Stanley in Pleasant
Prairie and when the sheriff demanded
his pay Hoffman disappeared. Later
the sheriff found the horse and took it
on the mortgage and when it was sold
later to satisfy the mortgage it was
purchased second time by Stanley at
a price Of hundred dollars more than
he had originally paid Hoffman,.
The Chicago trader was mixed up
with number of other men in the city
and as far as can be learned he had
the best of the bargain in every deal
made.
Holman left Kenosha suddenly and
since that time efforts have been made
to locate him. He had formerly been
in business at Canton and the sheriff
there had been instructed to arrest him
on sight. Hoffman drifted into Canton
on Sunday morning with new team
Of horses and he was promptly taken in
to custody. Under Sheriff Nicholas
Fonk left for Canton today and it is
expected that Hoffman, will return to
Kenosha for trial on the charges against
him without. the necessity Of sxtradi-
ton papers.
The sheriff will be the prosecut-
ing witness in the case on which
the trader was arrested, but it is
probable that after he reaches Ke-
nosha other charges viii be fled against
him by former business associates.
