opposite side of the street at the time, was
called over and took Trundy to the Jail. Thurs

story of the Opera House block was searched
and two full suits of clothes two heavy sweat
ers and a raincoat found. These goods were
supposed to have come from the N. Y. Syndl-
cate store, which was entered last spring, and
Trundy IS said to have admitted to the city

subse quently identified as coming from the

admissions made to him, and of his trip to
Waterville and interview with Rosa Pratt, the
alleged wife of Trundy. and her confession of
receiving money by mail from Trundy but later
of giving IT back to him to get rid of him.

fault of bond was returned to Jail, where his
IS years old boy was permitted to share his
imprisonment. but will be returned to his
