CRIME IN MACON
SHOWS SMALL INCREASE

MACON, Ca, Sept. 3.-Crime in pc.
lice circles was little on the in
crease during the month of August this
year, compared with that month year
ago, according to records kept by Clerk
Steve McKenna.
A total of SGT cases were tried dur
ing the month just past, against to-
tai of 524 for the month of Angus
year ago, which is an increase of
just three cases. The heavy docket
of cases for the past month was due
to the record number of arrests made
last Saturday night by the city detec-
tives and patrolmen, when total of
100 cases appeared on he police blot
ter for trial last Monday morning
This docket was the largest of the
year Out of the 100 cases tried, the
detectives figured in "a of them, most
ly lettering cases, made against ne
groes caught loafng in saloons.
The total amount of cases tried this
August is about the same in number
as were tried during July of this year
In short, the police docket shows that
crime is still ON the increase despite
the stringent times existin gat pres
ent.
