STOLEN AUTO FOUND.

Wolcott Man Recovers Machine Through Aid of Frankfort Police. The automobile belonging to James Millard of Wolcott, which was stolen -several weeks ago, was recovered by the Frankfort police at Winamac, on Sunday. An officer from Frankfort and Joseph Mcßride, also of that city, were trailing a machine that had been stolen from Mr. Mcßride when they found the Millard car in the possession of Charles Merritt. The Frankfort men learned that Zinn Merritt had stolen the Mcßride car and had left Winamac. Charles Merritt, who is being held in the Frankfort jail, claims that he purchased the Millard machine from his brother. Mr. Millard has been notified of the finding of his car and the subsequent arrest, and will go to Frankfort today to recover his automobile.— Yesterday’s Lafayette Journal.
