day and landed In jail. The mer-
chandise stolen from the Maloney &
Co. store was carried from this city
to Corsicana and disposed OF. Off.
GERS report that quite a lot OF It has
been recovered and will be brought
back.
Trap Was Laid.
Within 30 minutes after City Mar.
shal Conlee made the first examina.
tion with other officers he made the
statement that he believed that Grip.
pied Sam Smith was the guilty party,
he having seen holes near the rear
door made by crutch. and his state.
ment this morning was that he had
believed he was the man all the time
but could not get hold OF him. The
officers at Marlin telephoned Mar
shal Conlee last night that they had
Smith safely behind the bars. Mar.
shal Conlee left today for Marlin and
was met at Bremond by officers from
Corsicana, who brought the stoler

ey a Co. store. said this morning thai
on the day before the burglary IN,
Smith negro spent about an hour II
the store about noon. He came int,
the store accompanied by young no
