 NICHOLSON CASE

Twice furnishing bail, and ready to furnish more if necessary, Elmo Mich olson was released from the county jail yesterday and will pass his Christ mas in freedom.
 Released on s2,500 bail fixed in the fugitive from justice case, he had not reached the door of the sheriff's outer office before he was arrested on a bench warrant from the Mississippi county court based on an indictment from a grand jury which charged him with grand larceny. Justice De Souza | jlaced the bail in this case at S500 which was furnished on short notice. While Nicholson was given his lib erty, the attractive young girl booked at the county jail as Mrs. Nicholson, 1 but better known throughout the south as Sadie Condor, will pass her holiday in the womans cell. Released on writ of habeas corpus few days ago, on the arrival of M. T. Worms, deputy sheriff of Mississippi county, Arkansas. she was rearrested on the charge of embezzlement. Her bond placed the bail in this case at $500, no effort was made to obtain her re- lease.
 That there are more indictments against Nicholson was the statement of P. H. Hayes, representing the Bank ! of Blytheville, who appeared in Jus tice De Souza's court yesterday when F. C. Struckmeyer, appearing for Nicholson, made a motion to have the first bond reduced. Assistant County Attorney Harry Johnson, for the state also insinuated that. other charges would be brought
 Nicholson was arrested on a fugi- tive warrant when word came from the south to the sheriff's office asking that he be held, and alleging that he had defrauded banks in Arkansas ant Louisiana to the amount of severa thousand dollars.
 MT. Struckmeyer made much Of tn, fact that the indictment against Mich
 olson had to do with a s mule. and il reply MT. Hayes stated that they ha,
 larger game to look for than the lar
 ceny of a mule. If there was nothinj
 further involved why would he not b
 ready to go back?" he asked, as h
 informed the court that there were 2 multitude of indictments against Mich l olson .and that it just chanced to b - the one selected on which the arres l was made.
 : It was scarcely an hour after Jus : tice De Souza refused to lower tn e bail that Nicholson had furnished tn . | n in the grand larceny case.
 Mrs. Nicholson insisted that sine
 only one of them could be release
 that bail be furnished in her husband
 case. She realizes that he can bette
 care for their future on the outsi6
 than she could,' said MT. Struckmeyt
 last evening. If more warrants al
 issued for my client it will merel show the malice that is behind tn ' case"
 l MT. Struckmeyer admitted tn;
 Nicholson would fight extraditio
 Which he said would come up at Go,
 ernor Hunts convenience. Since M 7 Struckmeyer was an associate couns
 In the governors contest suit he state n that he would not care to appear in
 mediately before Governor Hunt v this matter.
 Deputy Sheriff Worms insists upc
 taking the Nicholsons back to Arkal IS sas. He will fight strenuousIv f II their return to the country Whe n there are charges against them.
