Cusino, who was arrested for the burglary com mitted on Wilson & Roper's jewelry and tobacco store took a sudden turn Friday when the news was received here by Fred Roper that tin re was a party in Eugene who was selling pipes and cheap jewelry, combination calculated to arouse suspicion In view of the goods taken. Tte authorities there were wired to arrest and hold the man, and Cusino's trial, which had been set for Friday, was postponed until Monday. Sheriff Lister left on Friday evening for Eugene and on Sunday he returned with the prisoner. On Mon day morning, Cusino duly appeared be fore the court at tbe appointed time and was immediately released. The new prisoner was then brought In and arraigned. He gave his name as Ralph 3mith. On request of Attorney G. W. Colvig, who appeared for the state, the trial was postponed until Ihe following day and the prisoner was Instructed to procure counsel in the meanwhile. His bonds were fixed at (500 in default ol which he was Incarcerated In the county jail. A man giving his name as II. Eaton was arrested 15 miles north ol Eugene Monday as the accomplice ol Smith and be was brought here but the examina tion failed to connect him with the robbery and he was released. Smith's trial is continued till Thursday. Goods found in his possession were identified by Wilson Jc Roper ai their property and his conviction seems morally certain. The prisoner is short dark young man with a black mustache. He seems to be a comparative stranger hers snd is known to tew though many recall hav ing seen bim about town, Cusino's release is bailed with satis faction almost univorsally as few be lieved in his guilt at any time, Hie reloaie would have been moderately certain even though no other party had been located. He certainly has a right to (eel injured over the treatment he has received as It can not lail to damage him to a greater or less extent. Even though he was released without a trial, the mere fact of his being arrested for such a crime is injourious to his reputa tion and to his business Interests in consequence. Coming Events.
