Mendel Dorfman and Israel Pschurra, junk dealers, were held to the gTand Jury by Judge Bennett yesterday, on a charge of stealing over worth of sawmill machinery from H. Goodwin. In holding the men. Judge Bennett took occasion to warn junk dealers In general that no excuse of purchasing stolen stuff from persons not the real owners would be accepted In such cases. The court eaid that it was a too common practice of these men to buy junk at ridiculously low figures from anyone who said he was the owner, without reasonable in vestigation. Goodwin shipped the sawmill machinery to this city, en route to Battle G-round. Wash., and it was stored In a vacant lot on the Bast Side. Saying he had pur chased the property from a man named. Straw, Dorfman and Pschurra sent a man with a sledgehammer to break up the cast iron. He destroyed several gear wheels valued at $20 and then hauled the stuff away.
