for Their Stolen Wares.

morning with the cases of Stull, New
man and Norden boys. The boys
were all charged as reported in yes

stealing a bundle of sacks, but only
the" first two uamed were connected
with the other crimen mentioned in
the complaint. Judge Henry with
held his decision until tomorrow
morning. One startling bit of evi
dence which was brought out at this
trial' was that It did not matter what
a boy might have for sale or how he
came In possession of his merchan
dise, he would experience but Utile
trouble in dispos'ng of their wares in
this city.
