THEFT OF FRUIT FROM CARS IS CHARGED. - THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FKIDAT, OCTOBER 6, 1923 Si Remark Made to Housewife Iist July Iveads to Catching In Act of Robbing. A voluble and loquacious vege table hawker, a haggling: house wife, a watermelon, appear as the principals In a modern detective story which, ended Wednesday when Antonio Saso, former Portland vegetable dealer, was arrested by United States authorities at San Jose and held for return to Port land. The haggling housewife refused to buy melon from the peddler his name a mystery. The price was too high, she said. Antonio Saso sold . melons much cheaper. y "Ah, madam," answered the vol uble one, in his broken English, "if I could steal ny melons, I could sell them cheap, too." That was last July. The house wife told a friend. The friend re layed the story to a department of justice agent. There had been a number of thefts from Interstate shipments of fruits and melons left on the freight tracks near East Third and Belmont streets. Railroad agents were told of the voluble Italian's statements. On the morning of august 26 a - railroad guard sur prised Saso loading watermelons from a car into his truck. The guard started to question the hawker. Saso claimed that he bad authority to enter the car. By a ruse he diverted the watchman's attention, bolted, deserted his truck and disappeared. A warrant for Saso's arrest was sworn out. Tha government's sleuths ' located the former Port lander at work on an uncle's ranch near San Jose. Saso is 22 years of age and re sided with his parents at 560 East Seventeenth street. He will be re turned without delay to face trial in the federal court. JOHN C.
