WILLING TO'TELL THE TRUTH

Admitted He Perjured Himself to Get His Partners in Crime Punished Like Himself.

Detectives Smith and Hyland who took Harvey and Weinhold, the two young trunk thieves, to the Jeffersonville reformatory have returned home. They stopped off at Indianapolis to permit the prisoners to testify against the men to whom they sold the trousers found in one of the trunks. Harvey swore that A. Brtstine bought the ninety-six pair of trousers and that he asked him and Weinhold to make him a bill of sale show ing the purchase to be $90 which they did. In cross examination the attorney for Iiastine and Coffin, another man charged with buying the goods kno\v: ing that they were stolen, asked Harvey if they did not allege that they were traveling for a Kalamazoo trouser factory and were just closing out their samples. He said they diid not. When Weinhold took the stand he assumed the same air of bravado that characterized his actions and flatly contcadicted the testimony of his partner. He said that they did tell the Indianapolis second-hand dealers that they were traveling salesmen and were closing out their samples. When told, that it was known lie was swenring falsely he said he did not care and that he didn't care how long he remained in prison if lie could have the satisfaction of having his treacherous partner with him. But when he arrived at the prison door he weakened and said he had sworn to a lie but if broucrht back to Indianapolis he would tell the truth. In the case against. Coffin and Bastinc. the court took the matter umVr advisement and has not yet rendered a decision. If the men are remanded for grand jury investigation. Weinhold and Harvey will be brought back from prison to testify and Weinhold will be given one more chance to tell the trdth.
