The two lads, John Gallagher - and Thomas Page, remanded from Friday. on a charge of stealing 135 pounds of brass from the Canadian Locomotive Works, appeared before the police magistrate this morning.

Charles Zacks, who bought the brass, was the first witness called, and to Mr. Whiting said that he bought the brass from the prisoner in the dock and another man, on Saturday morn- ing last. Witness said when boys first came they had two pieces. He bought these and then they brought two more. "1 'asked hipg-where he got them," said the Witness, "and prisoner re plied that there was a smelting fae tory near the cotton mill, that the boss was" leaving for Montreal, and | that the man who was cleaning up | the yard gave him (prisoner) the brass, 1 paid 38.10 for the brass." Witness said Gallagher got the money, Witness produced the book, which ae- cording to law he must keep, and the prisoner had signed "John Collins." David Zacks, uncle .of thé-tast wit ness, was next called. Witness stated that he was there when the prisoner came first and enquired if witness would buy some brass, and he told him he would. Prisoner went away to get it, When prisoner and another came back with the brass, witness was gone. Himan Zacks, the eight-year-old son of the former witness, testified that he saw the prisoner, on Saturday morn- ing, when he brought the brass, and he heard the conversation when the prizoner told his uncle where he got the brass. Henry McCambridge, an employee of the Canadian Locomotive Works, iden tified the lhrasses by punch marks which he had placed on" them, to mark them in pairs. He missed them 'some | of | making a | from the works on Saturday JQporn- ting. A window in the east end of | the machine shop was up about four | inches.
