FUGITIVE ROBERTS.

He Flees Before the Ofioea in Pursuit of Him.

From Tuesday* INklly.

Last night police headquarters wss notified that Charley Roberts, who broke out ot the Boekville jail, had been surrounded in the woods near Clinton Locks, north of this city. Chief Fasig sent a posse of officers consisting of Dwyer, Lawlor and Myers up to the scene on the midnight train. They returned this morning. They teport that Roberts was all day yesterday in a little house in the woods near Clinton Locks and that he wasr surrounded there last night by a posse, but got away. The posse fired on him, but the shots did not seem to take effect, though some of the party thought Robeits was hit.

Roberts, after getting away, stole a horse from a neighboring farmer and made his escape thus the more easier. The house Roberts was stopping at is in habited by some chums of his. Before the arrival of the officers this morning Sheriff Musser, of Rockville, telegraphed that Roberts was chased within two miles of Rockville last night and he thought he would go toward Brazil. The officers, however, say Roberts took a southerly direction.

HABEAS COM

Hearing Before Judge ilftn ii the Circuit Coirt.

To Determine if the Humphreys Case Was Bailable or Not.

Evidence and Arguments'— Hum phreyi Held to Bend ii the Sum of $5,000.

From Saturday's Daily.

in the Humphreys' habeas corpus case yesterday evening, after the

This morning Christopher Montgomery, aged 12, for whose attachment had to be issued yesterday, took the witness stand. The boy proved to be a good witness and answered readily and in a straight-forward manner. He detailed the circumstances ot the killing much the same as they have already been published. He said Humphreys drew his pistol when Carithers called him a s— of a b—^, the two being ten or twelve steps from one another, and that when Humphreys called after Carithers the latter was walking away, going toward home.

Isaac Schulf was placed upon the stand, the purpose of tbe state being to show by him that Carithers was a harmless character and though be would talk and perhaps threaten a great deal while drinking nobody who knew him ever paid any attention to him or thought he would carry what he said into execution.

The defense strenous'y objected to that line of evidence and along argument was make on the proposition to the court.

Pending a decision on the disputed

Slonday.

oint, Judge Allen adjourned court until

From Monday's Dally.

This morning proceedings in the Humphreys habeas corpus case were mainly taken up by arguments to the court on the proposition carried over from Saturday to allow the state to prove Carithers* reputation for violence. Judge McNutt spoke this morning for the defense and H. C. Nevitt and D. N. Taylor for the state. At 11:15 •. M. the court decided to allow such evidence to be produced, but limited tbe number of witnesses on that point to three. There could only be one decision found touching tbe point under discussion and it was proved by the court to be a very knotty problem to dccide. The court stated he would not allow the state tu go into proof of general character.

The witnesses for the state called on thftt point were not present and tbe defense put James Hurst, Justice of the Peace of Nevins township, on the stand, who ga\e the circumstances of Humphreys voluntary submission to him and how the doctor and himself rode to Terre Haute late that night on a flat car in order that the doctor might give himself up. 'Squire Hurst testified as to Humphreys' financial meaDS, stating that he was in but moderate circumstances and that Humphreys'friends who wete supporting him in his present trouble were not men ot wealth but of small means. This testimony goes as to the capacity of the defendant to furnish bond.

This afternoon, Mrs. Humphreys, who has been a close companion of her husband dtuing the triai, toe the stand and testified to threats made by the deceased on the life of hei husbaud.

David Stuthard was introduced by the defense and testified to being with Carithers on tbe day of the trial with Humphreys that he was sober, and that he only took one drink. He said tbe deceased was not a dangerous man, though be was quarrelsome when drunk and "jawed a little."

Q—by Judge McNutt—"Wasn't he in tbe habit of calling persons he was mad ats— of

A—"That was a kind of by-word he had." Witness testified that deceased told him on the day of the killing that he was going to send Humphreys over the road. Witness also testified that the deceasea said he was goiag to "repeal" the case.

Mr. Vaneell, brother-in-law of deceased, Usiified that there was nothing dang-rous about him.

During the afternoon session the court asked the attorneys what time they desired lo consume in the arguments. Mr. Davis replied the defense would be conk*nt wiiii fifteen or twenty minutes or would agree to submit it without argu-ru-nt. Air. Nevitt said th« slate would re quire a longer time.

FJ om Tuesday's Daily.

esterday afternoon the testimony on both sides in tlis Humphreys habeas corpus case closed and arguments began. The brunt of the proof remaining with the prisonei, the defense were qptitled to the opening" and closing addresses. No limit was placed on the time to be con sumed. Ju^ge McNutt spoke about an hour and three-quarters yesterday evening for tbe defendant and made one of his always able arguments*.

This morning Mr. David N. Taylor spoke an hour and ten minutes and Mr. H. 0. Nevitt an hour and a half, both on beqalf of the prosecution. Their speeches were listened to with careful attention by the large number of spectators present and were clear, forcible and to the point This afternoon Mr. Nevitt went over some points of evidence that had been omitted by Mr.) Taylor and himself in

report closed, James Gibson testified that on tbe morning ot the killing Caritbers asked him if he had a revolver "in his jsans." Gibson replied that|hedidn't, aad Carithers put his hand back ia his hip pocket and said he had. He said he intended to shoot Humphreys before he left town that day.

A J. Kelley, who was attorney for Humphreys in the suit that led to the killing, testified that Carithers denounced Humphreys as a perjurer and that James Van Hook warned Humphreys to look out for Carithers.

their arguments, and then Mr. 8. U. Davis began the closing address to the court for the defendant.

From Wednesday* Dally.

At the conclusion of Mr. 8. C. Davis* address in the Humphreys case yesterday evening Judge Allen decided that the case was a bailable one and fixed the bond of tbe defendant at f9,009. It was evident during tbe last few days ot tbe hearing that the case would be decided as bailable and the decision of the court caused no surprise. Dr. Humphreys was congratulated by hiB friends present in court, and his wile, who has been watchfully attendant to him all through the hearing, was visibly affected. Tbe defendant was taken back to jail.

Tbe statement in the Express this morning that the decision of the court deciding the case as bailable is equivalent to acquittal is so far from the truth as to be absurd. The only question at issue in the hearing was whether or not the case came within the Constitutional provision that every citisen is entitled to bail except in eases of murder in the first degree and tieaBon. The decision does not change the legal aspect of the case in the least, and but gives tbe defendant the privilege ol furnishing bond tor his appearance at the trial if he is capable ot eo doing. The present quefetton cuts no figure in the final trial and does not limit the verdict of the jury. Messrs. Taylor and Nevitt, who ably conducted- the prosecution, do not look on the finding ot the court as a defeat except in the point of murder in the first degree and when the case again comes to trial it will be vigorously pioseceted.

Up to 4 o'clock Humphreys had not given bail, but, be is expected to this evening.

OTTER CREEK DEMOCRATS.

They Meet and Nominate a Candidate for Trustee. The Democrats of Otter Creek met Tuesday evening at Ostraader's warehouse at Otter Creek junction fcr the purpose of nominating township officer?. It wa6 one of the largest, most harmonious and enthusiastic meetings ever held iz tbe township.

ROBBERY.

Mysterieus Disappearance cf $113.50. From Saturday's Dally. Mre. L. M. Cook has recently had 113.50 stolen under eircumstances which shroud its abstraction in a cloud of mystery. She had placed $114, which had just been paid her, inthe purse. Shortly thereafter, supper btiog announced, she placed this in a bureau drawer in a lower room instead of taking it to her own room in tbe second story. After supper the money was gone, or rather all of it except SOcts and in the purse with that 50cts was a silver dollar which had not been there before, as all the money except the fifty cent piece had been in bills. Nothing was disturbed in the bureau drawer,nor was the purse taken. Neither was anything disturbed in the room.

All this happened last Saturday evening. Detectives were called at once and have been at work on the case ever since, but aTe utterly unable to get any clue to the missing money, the disappearance of which is wholly enveloped in mastery.

One Minute Sentence. From Monday's Daily.

This morning action was takeB in the Circuit Court on the grand jury indictment returned at the November term charging Amelia Stange with petit larceny in the taking of stove wood of the value of fiw ccnts, the property of Wm.

A formal entry was made this morning by Judge Scott, which disposes of tbe case. The defendant was fined one cent, with punishment in the county jail for one minute. The entry was purely formal. The informal part of tbe proceeding will come when the husband of the defendant goes to pay some eighteen or twenty dollars worth of costs in a few days.
