SAYS HE'S GOING
BACK TO TRADE
Freed Pickpocket Tells Of
His Future Plans.
DECLARES II PAYS BETTER
Man Says With Good Luck and Ade-
suate Protection He or Any Other
Efficient Pickpocket Can
Clean Up $500 a Week.

Columbus.-Charles Moran, skilled
workman, is going back to his
trade when released from the Ohio
penitentiary next month, after a
term of two years. Because of his
more than average intelligence Moran
has been holding desk job in the
front penitentiary office for several
months.
"Going to Work at Trade"
Charlie, you are going to be free
soon. What will you do then?" asked
Frank O'Blenness, secretary to War
den Thomas.
I'm going to work at my trade"
Moran replied.
Il didn't know you had a trade"
yes, have good one. and it pays
much better than most"
What is it?' O'Blenness asked.
Its the trade that brought me here
-pocket-picking," the prisoner nom
chalantly answered.
Moran was sent up from Lancaster,
where he was caught while lifting"
the wallet of farmer. He had been
following President Taft's campaign
train. Indiscreetly, he admits, he sep
arated himself from his "pals" and
followed the farmer when he caught
sight of the large size of his roll"
For some contrary reason the farmer
declined to join the crowd at the sta
ton, and Moran finally took chance
of relieving him anyway.
If it had not been for his intended
victims vigilant wife Moran might
have succeeded. She saw his deft dive.
into her unsuspecting husbands hip
pocket and shrieked an alarm A crowd
closed in and Moran was caught with
the goods"
ats All In the Game"
"It's all in the game" Moran ex-.
planned to O'Blenness. Il don't get,
caught often, though, and this time it!
was my own carelessness. But twice!
In 23 years isn't SO bad"
Moran readily acknowledges that he
would have done time" many times
oftener and longer except for the pro-
lection which he and his pickpocketi
partners were able to buy from police
and detectives of various cities.
With good luck and adequate pro-
lection, Moran says, he or any other
efficient pickpocket can clean up as
high as s4eOs or $500 worth OF dia-
monds, iewelry and cash in week.
This loot, he says, is usually auctioned
off among the members of the lift
ing fraternity themselves at regular
meetings. Each usually has speciality
and knows fences" where he can dis
pose of it most profitably.
Moran is not this prisoners right
name, the penitentiary officials are
confident, but he has been caught so
rarely that there is no record from
which his identity may be learned.

ing Rebel Surprise Party Near
City Of OJinaga.

Preside, Tex, Dec. 31.-The north
ern division of the Mexican federal
army apparently is utterly demoral-
lied. With its dead and wounded

the United States border, only to be
pushed back again, the 1000 federals
who had made a dramatic retreat from
Chihuahua to Ojinaga, the little Mexi-
can village opposite here, were scat
tered In all directions as result of
their first battle with the rebels. For
ty-two hundred rebels sent by Gen.
Francisco Villa from Chihuahua liter
ally sent terror throughout the federal
ranks.

Are Prisoner Beino acoddled ~

Are the inmates of Ohio penal
institutions being 'coddled'?" is the
question which some county prosecu-

of the administration has reached the
point of indulgence and that prisoners
are being better treated than a ma
jority of the people outside the penal
walls. The charge has been SO oft

1t is expected that Ohio courts will
have good chance to get caught up
with the back work when the new
workmen's compensation law becomes
operative in 1914. The new law will
help matters by automatically cutting
down or reducing the number of per-
sonal injury suits that now are esti-
mated to constitute at least 35 per
cent of all the litigation in Ohio.
After the compensation. measures get
well under way, the number of per-
sonal injury suits, it is promised now,
will become a negligible quantity.
