Mrs. Rose F.. Fahy. 1t is learned from
the police that the young man had taken
Mrs. Fahy's gold watch and her son War
ren's rifle and when they accused him re-
turned the articles, but he was ordered
from the house. Later a ring and cost
tag from dress suit case were found in
the Fahy house and were identified by B.
L. Davis as part of the goods taken re-
Gently from his store. Then the officers
searched his room Monday afternoon and
found sweaters, shoes, etc. From the
search City Marshal Knowlton went
to the shipyard and arrested Elmendorf.
He confessed not only to the breaking
and entering the Webber and Davis stores,
but also the break at the r. R. Station
and the former break at the office of the
Eastern S. S. Co. He was taken to the
County Jail to await his trial, at which
he plead guilty. He was placed under
$500 for his appearance at the January
term of the Supreme Judicial Court next
to be holden in Belfast. He failed to secure
bonds and was committed. Practica ly
all of the stolen goods have been recov-
cred. He told Sheriff Frank A. Cushman
that he did not premeditate the acts, but
simply yielded to impulses.
