JARDINEERS, a THURSDAY (ON CHARGE OF THEFT TWO MEN ARRESTED BY THE POLICE, Charge Against Charles Killeen Dis- missed in Police Court--Thomas Jenman elected Trial by Judge, and Was Committed for Trial-- Evidence Taken In the Case, The charge against Thomas Jenman and Charles Killeen, in police court, Tuesday morning, was that they did steal the sum of $9 from one George Turner, employed as a shipper at Crothers' biscuit factory. Jenman is a barber and Killeen is a carter. Hoth men were placed under arrest, shortly after midnight, last night, by Consta- ble J ames andl Crown Attorney, Whiting conducted the prosecution, and J. Mel. Mowat appeared on behalf of Killeen, and entered a ples of "not guilty," and asked for a summary trial. Nearly two hours were required in taking the evidence in Killeen's case, after which it was dismissed. Jenman elected to be tried by a judge, and was commits ted for trial. Turner was the first witness called, and he told of having gone tg, a restaurant, last night, with John Me- Caul, employed at Bibby's livery, They left the restaurant about mid. night, and went to Bibby's livery. Witness then leit the livery about 12.20. At the time, he had in his pos. session three $20 bills, two or three $10 hills, and four $1 bills. On Octo ber Ist, he had drawn $130 gut of the bank, in order to pay some bills. He came down. Brock® street, and when near Waldron's store, some one came up from behind him, raised his arms, and he felt some one put a hand in his pockets. He recognized Jenman and Killeen as the men who were near him at the time. Constable Downey came along just after he had cried out that he had been robbed, and he ask- ed that the two men be arrested: Wit ness «said. Constable Downey at once took charge of Killeen, and Jenman walked to the corner, and then came back again.

Afterwards, witness, with Sergt. Nesbit, went back to Waldrén's corner, and the sergeant picked up four $1 bills. Afterwards, they went to Ribby's livery. McCaul said that he knew that Turner had money, and, taking a lantern, McCaul went with witness and Sergt. Nesbitt and they looked for the rest of the money. Near the edge of the walk, near a stone, McCaul picked up three #20 bills and two or three $10 bills. Cross-examined by Mr. Mowat, Tur ner said he had three or four drinks during the evening, but he was not drank. He knew what he was doing. Asked as to who he met after leaving the livery, witness said he did not re-| i a He * | held on Monday, when routine business member meeting any person. He was pressed on this question, but witness held that he did not remember stop- ping and talking to any person. Wit- ness explained to Mr. Mowat, how his hands had been held up. Witness said | that, to the best of his knowledge, he] had no eoniversation with the two men accused earlier in the evening. Constable James Downey, who made the arrests, told his story. He said he was at Waldron's corner, when he heard a man ery out. Turner came up to him and said, "Stop that man; I have been robbed." The man referred to was Killeen, and witness took him in charge. Jenman was there, too, but walked on to the corner, but came back. Turner told witness that he had been robbed of three $20 bills and three $10 bills. The men denied taking the money, and witness told them that they would bave to go to the police station, to clear themselves, and they agreed to go to the station. Witness then told about McCaul finding the rest of the money. Turner was excit- ed at the time, but afterwards was quite cool. He had evidently been drinking, but knew what he was do- ing. Fay To Mr. Mowat, witness Jennian was not sober, "And he is on the 'Indian list' too," remarked Mr. Mowat. "What is this 'Indian list" for ?"' Sergt. Nesbitt told of the finding of the money by McCaul. When arrested, Jenman had about forty cents and Kill en five cents. John MeCaul was wanted to give evidence, but as he was not present at this stage, the evidence for the prose cuticn was closed, Ki"sen went into the box, and, to Mr. Mowat, said that he met Mr. Tur- ner ¢n Brock street, in front ot the Queen's hotel. Turner, he said, was starding at the hotel door, and was trying to get in. Witness and Jenman came along and Turner asked them if he could get in to get a drink. Wit- ness told him that it was after hours, and that he could not get a drink. Turner told him that he had been there for quite a time, endeavoring to secure an entrance, Witness and Jenman started to walk down the street, and when they got near Peters' flour "store, they heard ipl ery out that he had been rob- bed. Witness ' denied having taken the money from Turner, and also denied having laid a hand on him, and he did not see Jemman touch him, He did rot drop 'any money. He was not drunk, To Mr. Whiting, witness said that le had a few drinks and that he and Jenman had been together, for an hour or two, earlier in the evening. Jen- man corroborated the evidence of Kil- leen as to Turner standing at the ho- tel door and asking if he could get in to secure a drink. He denied hav- ing committed the robbety. Mr. Mowat submitted that there was no evidence to show that Killeen had stolen the money. He said that from the evidence, Turner's memory was not to be relied upon. He would not swear as to whether any other person said that had spoken to him besides the two men. Turner himself might have dropped the money. The prisoner, Killeen, was a South African veteran, had no pre vious police eourt record, and in view of this, he would ask that the charge aii him be dismissed. agistrate Farrell said that he could not find a conviction. No mon- ey had been found on Killeen, and it was for him to give the prisoner the benefit of the doubt. The accused had never been before the court belore, had a good character, being a resident of the city for many years, and he would, therefore, dismiss the charge. McCaul came to the court afterwards and was sworn. He told about find- ing the money, and swore he did not take it. He was out with Turner and had lunch and a drink with him. In Shhtlettion Woh the cate of Jen- man, Inspector i right states that he is not i ogeglod. id the "prohibited list," his time on the list having expired two months ago. News From Westbrook.
