PAYS $lO FINE TO RECOVER HIS CARD GAME LOSS fCONTINIED FirnM I’AC.K refused to return any of it. The three men left the room ut 4he hotel, King going aheml and starting the motor of his car. Just as Madison started to get into the car. Sprague grabbed him and called for the polico. Strangers Are Jailed Chief Melclii responded to the call and took the two alleged swindlers to jail and Sheriff Hollingsworth, also receiving the call for help, followed them to the jail with Sprague and a representative of the' hotel. At the jail, the men at first refused tn admit their game, saying that the three were just having a friendly game ut the hotel and that Sprague had just had "hard luck ” After questioning, however. King , admitted the game and wanted to I settle. Madison refused at first to return any of the money, but later realizing the seriousness of (he ehaige that might be brought against them he agreed to return about S9OO to Sprague. In the meantime, affidavits charging gambling were filed again"! all three of the partii ipants in the game. Luggage Is Searched A search of the luggage carried by the two men, revealed several "loaded" dice and a machine for loading the dice. One of the men also carried a "card harness," with which he could reach to his belt and secure any card lie wished for use in the game. He did not have the harness hi. however, during the game yesterday. The men had told Sprague that they just happened to meet in Decatur, but it was latrn - revealed that '.hey were travelling together and had only one automobile. King claimed to lie a Detroit cabaret owner ami Madison stated he was a “rumrunner." Both men hail registered at the hotel under fictitious names, according to letters and telegrams in their pockets. The automobile title was also in a different name. All Three Plead Guilty The two men were lodged in the Adams county jail pending a hearing in mayor's court at 7 o'clock last night. All three appeared before Mayor George Krick last night and entered pleas of guilty to gambling and each was fined $lO and costs, amounting in each case to $21.90. The fines were (mid aiid the money was divided up between the three, Sprague getting about S9OO as his share. The twjo strangers left this city about 9 o'clock, presumably for Fort Wayne. It is thought that they had been in Fort Wayne previous to their vLit to Decatur, as they botli had mail addressed to them at tile Baltes hotel in Fort Wayne.
