Craig's store at Verona, Sunday night, when they were given a preliminary hearing be- fore Magistrate Bradshaw, Wednes- day afternoon. The evidence of Mr. and Mrs. Craig and of Constable Maclachlan were taken against all three, whose cases were taken up separately, while that of Samuel McQueen, of this city, was also taken against Wright, he possessing an Important conver- sation with the last accused. The solen goods in the court room were divided into two lots. A table was piled high with men's and. boys' pants and work shirts, overalls, dress goods, boots and tobacco, which had been found by Constable Maclach- lan in bushes half way up Gibson's Hill on the Portland Road. The other articles were a ladies' silk blue and white sweater, a package of Millbank cigarettes and a package of Ogden's fine cut tobacco, which were found In a room rented by Mr. and 'Mrs. Brawley at 192 Ordnance street, city. Stolen Goods Identified. Mr. and Mrs. Craig, who repeated their evidence three times, said they were able to identify most of the property found, principally by the price marks and tags and the hand- writing. Mrs. Craig was sure they had had & sweater exactly like the one stolen. It was in the store Sat- ing. Mr. Craig said he had lost a cartoon or so of Millbanks cigarettes and kept Ogden's tobacco in stock, Mr. McQueen, in his evidence, said that he knew James Wright, and that he had been talking with him on Monday morning about nine a.m. at the corner of Clarence and On- tario streets. The latter had told witnésses that he had taken clothing from a store in Verona that morning and that he had hid it on thé road in from Glenvale, between two hills, of which Gibson's Hill was one. The goods were brought there in a Ford car belonging to another fellow with whom he stayed, Witness did not know the latter. Wright wanted to know of the witness where he could get rid of the goods." He sald he was afraid to bring it into the city in daylight. De- scribing the incident to the witness, Wright said they had left the woman he lives with in the car at the tracks at Verona, while he and his friend went to the store. Later the car was brought to the store to receive the goods. On Tuesday, in a second conversa- tion with the witness, Wright sug- gested getting a horse and buggy to go out to the bushes where the cloth- ing was. Witness met Wright"again on Wednesday. Wright gave him a sealed box of Millbanks, but he could not say whether Wright told him they were from the store. Admission of Wright. y Warned and asked if he had any- thing to say, Wright said he had not seen any of the money taken. Ross Brawley got that. Wright said he was going to his job at Napanee, Sunday night, whén Brawley took it into his head to go out to Verona "to do the job." Wright said he did not know C nor that he had a store. Asked by Mr. Rigney where he got the cigarettes he gave McQueen, he id it was at the bottom of the hill. Neither Ross nor Mrs. Brawley had anything to say, nor would they sign the Magistrate's form to that effect. The former wanted to know if it meant that he was guilty, and said he wanted a lawyer. Though none of the accuged were required to plead, Mrs. Brawley told the court that she was not guilty. Regarding Mrs. Brawley, Con- stable Maclachlan said that after he arrested her on Wednesday, he had asked her, after warning her of the consequences of speaking, what she had been doing at Verona. She re- plied that she had not been there in three weeks. T. J. Rigney, K.C., conducted the prosecution. Mr. Rigney placed Mr. McQuéen under a recognizance for $500.
