Red Barnes in Jail.

A. L. Jensen and Mallie Clark were requested to appear in Chicago last Thursday at the request of the city detective force to identify Red Barnes, who is in custody, charged with being one of the auto thieves who stole a large number of autos in the city last winter, and quite a nuihber of them were sold in this part of the state, one of which was sold to H. W. Marble, the deal being made by Mallie Clark as agent for Mr. Marble. Red Barnes was identified as the party who sold the car and received the check made payable to himself and afterwards endorsed and cashed. The detectives, since taking into custody Barnes, are getting evidence which will result in bringing to justice the entire gang of auto thieves who sold so many- cars last winter in this part of the state.
