outcome of Plttman's injuries.
Flttraari "was admitted to the hospital
last Monday. He was found by pedes
trians wandering about the streets In
- the vlolnlty of the hospital early in the
. morning and when questioned seemed
to be dated. Taken to the hospital
where an examination was made. It was
discovered that be was suffering from
a fractured skull and an operation later;
revealed that the same blow had also
caused a large blood clot to form on his
brain. He had not regained his senses
up to a late hour last night and the
hospital surgeons hold out little hope
for his recovery,
No papers were found on the man at
the hospital but it was learned by the
police that he had come here Friday In
company with a woman, and with her
had engaged a room in a down town
lodging house.
The Robinson boy disappeared and
nothing was reported to the police but
later the same night officers found Pitt
man lying at the edge of the side
walk about a half a block from the.
house. , He was locked up In jail that
night as a drunk and released early
Tuesday morning. He was admitted to
the hospital at noon the same day.
Investigation has since brought to
light the fact that the injured man's
former home was in Owensbpro, Ky., and
that a sister, Mrs. Ida Labar now lives
in Eyansvllle, 111. She has been com

ADCOX TOO MEAN TO
GET MUNI'S PAROLE
Luther Adcoi, a white slaver, who
pleaded guilty yesterday before Judge
McGinn of the circuit court in hope of
leffleney, was badly disappointed when
the court announced sentenoe. One year
"Sin" the county Jail and & fin of $260
was tfce judgment. He was the first
person that Judge McGinn has sent be-
hind the bars.
"I, like to extend clemency where It
t may do good," said the judge. "In
lyour case, the statute gives you all the
clemepcy you deserve, and more too.
The depravity of your esse is deep, and
to' show leniency would be Justice mis
placed. Tou have the wrong view of
life. The only thing that can be done
with people like you is for society to
chase them out Of all criminals, a
man who deals in the honor of a woman
la the most despicable. I am sorry I
cannot send you to prison for a longer
term, but the statute only allows one
year and a fine."
Adcox said he induced Elisabeth Har
low to go to the resort at The Dalles,
but that he wanted to reform. Deputy
District Attorney Collier told the court
Adcox had been In trouble many times
before, and had boasted that he had
not worked for four years. The deputy
"'" had collected evidence showing the
man's trafficking in girls. Two sisters
of Adcox were in the court room, and
showed considerable emotion when the
'sentence was pronounced. Adcox Is a
