FREED ON
BOND Is ARRESTED
Charles Gibbs Set Free When
Police Learn Clew Is
Worthless.

Yesterday afternoon Officer George
Talley was approached by a stranger
who advised him that a man named
Charles Gibbs, wanted for murder
committed in Stoddard County nearly
a year ago, was at large in this cit
and that there was standing reward
for his arrest.
The stranger who gave his name as
Angle, volunteered to accompany tn
officer and identify the alleged fugi,
tive, if an arrest was desired.
After consulting with Chief Mich
OILS, it was decided to investigate tt.
matter, and the patrolman, in con.
pany with Angle, started in search {
>Iibbs.
They found him on board a train,
just preparing to leave for Perkins, a
small station on the Cotton Belt, {;
few miles south of Delta. He was ar
rested and brought back to the sta
ton, where he admitted that his name
was Gibbs and that he was the
accused of killing Frank Surface, i
Stoddard County sometime last Apri.
He did deny, however, that he was
fugitive, and insisted that at his p.
limenary hearing last October, he was
bound over to the Circuit Court in
Bloomfield, and that his trial wO
come up in March.
The authorities in Bloomfield wer
communicated with and the prisoner
story was verified. He was then re
leased and permitted to return to
home.
