 Jackson to Be Rcarrcsted.
 When Leroy Jackson, formerly of this place, who was recently convicted in the Hartford police court on d theft charge, completes his term in jail he is to be rearrested for the Meriden authorities, Prosecuting At torney Dunn of the Silver City hav- ing issued warrant for him Satur- day.
 Jackson is at present working out q fine of $50 and costs. When he was arrested by a Hartford detective he attempted to escape and was shot in the leg. He spent several weeks in a hospital before the wound healed suf- tciently to warrant his appearance in court.
 He had been taken into custody for stealing automobile tires. While he was in the hospital it was discovered that some of the clothes which he was wearing had been stolen from a delivery wagon of I. Rudensk, which was kept in Frederick Gallen's barn on East street, Plainvile. He sub- sequently confessed to having stripped the cart of over $100 worth of goods.
 The local authorities intended to have him brought here for trial after the Hartford police had finished with | him but it was finally agreed to try l him in the Capital City for both | offenses. Having stolen goods in his | possession was one of the counts on ! which he was arraigned and a fine of | $25 was imposed.
 The Meriden police now claim that | they have evidence against him for stealing automobile tires in that city and more trouble is evidently in store for him after he is released from the 1 Seyms street hostelry.
