Italians Arrested Charg-
ed With Aiding ]. Covalla
to Leave the Country.
CHARGED WITH SERIOUS CRIME

James Jendi and julius Elbi. both
Italians, We're arrested by Chief of Po-
lice Owen O'Hare on Monday evening.
charged with aiding in the escape of q
prisoner under bonds for trial in the
municipal court. The two men are now
in the city lookup and they will have
an examination before District Attor-
ney A. L. Drury this afternoon and the
charges against them will be taken up
in the municipal court on "Wednesday.
1t IS alleged that the two men recently
returned to Kenosha from Italy. They
are charged with aiding in the escape
of j. Covalla, arrested in Kenosha in
July OF 1912, on a charge Of assault
with intent to do great bodily harm.
Covalla was charged with having shot
up Main street., and it was alleged
that he had attempted to kill Police
Officer John B. Zievers. After he had
been held for trial at a preliminary
hearing Ben Costans put up $500 in
cash in order to secure his release.
When the case was called it was an
nounced that Covallo had fed the
country and the bond was declared for
felt. Costans refused to give up his
money without fight and at once
started efforts to locate Covalla and Sc
cure his return to this country. Let
ters were sent to Italy and answers re-
Gently received indicated thas Covalla
had fled from Italy and was now in
hiding in South America. The same
letters from Italy brought the informa-
tion that when Covalla left this country
for Italy he was accompanied by the
two men now under ARREST and it is
said that one of the men advanced the
money for the trip and took mort
gage on property what Covalla had in
Italy. 1t is alleged that this property
has been turned over to him and that
following the transfer he returned to
this country. This is denied by both
of the men under arrest and they have
asserted that they had nothing to do
with the escape of the man under
bonds. Costans is pushing the case as
he has been assured that the bond mon
ey will be returned to him if the de-
PENDANT is produced in court for trial.
1t is thought that the arrest of the two
men on charges of aiding the prisoner
to escape will result in Covalla being
brought back or that the men will re-
veal his present whereabouts and make
it possible for the regular officials of
the court to secure his return and his
trial on the charges against him.

WITNESSES STORIES AGREE
Company in Defense in $4,000 Suit
Alleges That Relator Failed to Meet
the Reasonable Demands of Company
For Continuation of Phone Service.

The suit of M. G. O'Donnell against
the Kenosha Home Telephone Company
Which promised to be decidedly inter
estlng in bringing decision under the
discrimination act, sort OF fizzled out in
the circuit court on Monday afternoon
and when the evidence in the case had
been submitted to the court and the
jury neither the attorneys for the plain
tiff nor the defendant were able to find
any issue for submission to the jury
and the jurors were discharged and the
attorneys agreed to submit the case for
decision to Judge Quinlan on briefs.
There is little reason to believe that
Mr.. O'DonnelI will recover any vast
amount of the near $4,000 which he
claimed as damages from the company
for discrimination.
There was remarkable coincidence
In the evidence in the case. The plain
tiff got all his evidence from Attorney
O'Donnell and all the evidence of the
defendant company was given by Man
ager A. A. Dye of the local exchange
and the evidenc of both was practical
~ the same. Mr.. O'Donnell had told
Of the cutting off of the service from
his office and Mr.. Dye confirmed the
statement of the plaintiff that the
service had been cut off. There was
no denial of the fact that sO'Donnell
had rendered the payment for one
month but here the evidence began to
differ and Manager Dye declared that
only the one tender had been made.
The evidence indicated that the phone
service had been discontinued for Just
two days after this tender for the
month in question was made and the
attorney for O'Donnell admitted on
Monday evening that he was of the
opinion that should the plaintiff recover
the amount would be for only two days.
Attorney Stewart, who appeared for
the plaintiff, held that it was not
necessary for 'Donnell to make a
monthly tender, but this point was
vigorously contested by the opposing
counsel and it appeared that the judge
held with the defendant on this ques
tion. In his argument for the defense
Attorney Barnes sought to show that
thnre had been no willful desire Of the
defendant to cut off service from the
plaintiff and that the cutting off Of the
service had been due to the fact, that
O'Donnell had failed to meet what the
company considered reasonable reg
ulation for the business i'll Kenosha
This reasonable regulation proposition
was the main thing in the case and the
argument was directed mostly to this
point. The contract of O'Donnell with
the company was made a part of the
evidence and it will be considered by
Judge Quinlsl in making his final deci-
sion in regard to the amount that the
state and the relator are to recover.
Judge Quinlan will not render his de
cision until after the attorneys have
ST omitted briefs and it will probably
be several weeks before the final
opinion of the court is made public.

Humane Officer of County
Named as Deputy Game
Warden by the Governor
WILL PROTECT THE SONG BIRDS

James HI. Karnes, humane agent of
henosha county, has a new official po-
sition and new silver star to wear. On
Monday State Game Warden John A.
Sholts appointed Mr.. Karnes as a
deputy state game warden and the ap-
polntment had the approval of Cover
nor Francis E. McGovern. It is given
for term of one year and it is dis
tlnctly understood that the humane
agent will work without pay. AS he
has been accustomed to working with
out pay for some time this little addi-
ton to the formal appointment will not
cause him any serious heart aches.
Warden Karnes has declared that he
has enlisted with the game wardens
with a view of preventing the slaughter
of harmless birds cad song birds in this
county. He will of course be entitled
to third of the fees which NAV be
paid to the state as result of arrests
made by him and if he is as active in
the game warden job as he has been
as humane officer it is probable that his
fees will amount to a considerable
amount. Mr.. Karnes declared on Mon
day that he was not looking for the
work that had been done by Game
Warden Kleist but that he had thought
possible that he might be able to use
the Office of deputy game warden in Sc
curing some prosecution for men and
boys who engage in the practice of the
useless slaughter Of song birds.
One thing is certain and that is that
Agent-W Warden Karnes is not going to
work for salary of a single dollar
this year. He now has two dollars.
The dollar from Babe Tourtellotte has
been framed and hanging in his home
for some time and now there is a check
for another dollar which is to hang in
the same frame. This check came from
j. P. Beck, an automobile salesman at
Saginaw, Mich. Beck had read in
paper that Karnes worked for dollar
year and he decided that he would
come to the aid of the people of Keno
sha county and double the salary of
one of its officials. The letter in which
the check was enclosed is as follows:
j. H. Karnes, Humane Officer:
Kenosha, Wis
Dear Sir
! have read clipping in the Sunday
issue of our Courier Herald. which /
am enclosing herewith.
1t certainly is terrible to see how
cold and chilly some people are, and in
order that your one dollar may not be
lonesome, I am enclosing my check for
another dollar This check YOU can
frame along side of your dollar if you
want to, because it will be good for
some years to come.
/ sincerely wish you success in your
undertaking, and was glad to learn that
you did not get cold feet for the
worthy cause that you have so great
II assisted.
Wishing you the compliments of the
season, I'm,
Sincerely yours,
J. P. Beck.
