Stratton, of 966 East Everett street, who, until two weeks ago, was employed as a claim adjuster for the O. R. & N. Co., was arrested last night at his home by Detectives Price and Coleman, on a warrant sworn out yes terday by Judge Cameron, of the Mu nicipal Court. Stratton was taken to the City Jail. He was arrested on the complaint of the O. R. & N. Co., which, through its auditor, Ralph Blalsdell, charges that Stratton, while in its em ploy, sold certain articles of freight entrusted to his care, for which he received $155, and failed to turn over the money to the company. While there is only one offense enum erated In the sworn complaint on which Stratton. was arrested, it Is said that an investigation by the railway officials since his connection with the company ceased, will probably lead to accusa tions of similar peculations amounting to many hundreds of dollars. Stratton was given his liberty after bond for $750 had beejj given by his wife and a friend for his appearance before Judge Cameron. Stratton will have a hearing today. Banan shoes fit th. feet.
