LAD CONFESSES TO THREE ROBBERIES
Also Admits Hint He Is n lloretblef
Sn.vs llo Is Only Ten Yritrn of
Arc, but .Seems to lie
Older.
In the pcrton of Arnold Prultt, n 10-year-old
boy arrested yesterday afternoon,
tho pollco discovered tho thief responsible
for several robberies committed at resi
dences In tho daytlmo during the absence
of the occupants. The boy confessed to
three robberies and Intimated that ho could
show whero ho hid part of the plunder.
The money ho secured ho had spent or given
away. Young Prultt also admitted taking
on Friday evening the horso aud buggy
belonging to Mrs. A. I). Annls, which dis
appeared from in front of a Broadway
store whllo Mrs. Annls was shopping. Tho
horso aud buggy wero recovered lato at
night on Kast Plorco street, whore It was
found hitched within a short distance, of
whore young Prultt lives.
Tho youthful self-confessed thief Is not
unknown to tho pollco and only recently
appeared In pollco court and testified against
a companion, who was sent to tho reform
school. Tho boy lives with his grandfather
at Oak ami PIcrco streets. Whllo ho says
ho Is 10 years of ngc. tho pollco believe ho
Is at least 11 ami has cunning enough for
twice tlint ngc.
Asked how ho managed to get Into tho
houses which ho robbed, the hoy said ho
cither raised a roar window or broko It.
Ho said he would go to the front door to
find out If the family wero at homo nnd If
they wero ho would pretend to bo In nticst
of empty bottles and other Junk. If ho
found tho occupants out, ho would at onco
proceed to tho rear nnd get In, If possible.
Ho confessed to breaking Into tho resi
dence of Frank Harlow at D0t Voorhls
street, whero ho secured some articles of
minor vnluo and n small sum of money;
the residence of I.. S. Cnrty. 107 Washing
ton avenue, whero ho secured a pockctbook
containing a small sum of money, nnd three
other places, which ho could not definitely
locnto. With tho money ho secured at tho
Harlow rcsldcnco ho enjoyed a good dinner
at a Broadway restaurant and Kavo part of
It to two newsboys.
elements of partnership rest In this caso
upon undisputed facts and the testimony of
disinterested nnd unlmpcached nnd unques
tioned witnesses. Burns declared Doyle 10
be his partner In tho doing of tho work, In
the protection of tho claims, In tho ncqul- I
sltlon of tho rights at times and under cir
cumstances and In places whero It Is Im
possible to give to the declarations of Burns
any meaning other than that Doyle occu
pied, with reference to him, the position of
partner In Its broad, general, comprehen
sive meaning and with referenco to the very
claims now under discussion. Was there
design on tho part of Burns from the be
ginning to secure Doyle's work and deprive
him of an Interest? Ills conduct with othor
partners, making stakes without their
names, attempting to mako certificates In
like manner, finding pretense for quarrels
to get rid of them, Jumping their property,
nil confessed by hlrasolf, nnd thus estab
lished, but also corroborated by tho evi
dence of others. All this leaves It a fair
Infercnco thnt be was willing and had skill
In the manner of misusing partners.
Everything shows that It was the disposi
tion of Burns to got his name title to prop
erty belonging to others nnd in which oth
ers had Interests."
With this lntiodiicttou Mr. Hughes then
took up n review of the evidence In tho
case.

ARGUE THE MINING CASE
Counsel Benin Sum Up the
I'iiiikiiin I)u le-lurn
Content.
Counsel began tho arguments In the
Doyle-Burns mining suit yesterday morn
ing, C. J. Hugheg opening for tho plaintiff.
Ho had not completed his argument when
court adjourned nt 4 o'clock until Monday
morning. Mr. Hughes will bo followed
by Congressman Walter I. Smith and Sen-
i ntor Patterson for Burns. John N. Baldwin
will mako tho concluding argument for
. Doyle. Tho courtroom was packed to tho
, doors during tho entire time of Mr. Hughes'
I argument, standing room being nt a pre
mium. Thoro wero many women among
! the spectators. Counsel Hughes said:
"Tho Issue between tho parties at bar
I Is whether or not Boylo nnd Burns wero
Interested In tho Uobtnll No. 2. tho Tidal
Wttvo and Devil s Own mining claims, ns
; partners with count shares and rights. All
of tho allegations In tho pleadings, when
reduced to their final analysis, consist of
tho allegation thnt such partnership nnd
I Interests existed; tho denial by Burns that
such partnership was created; tho claim
that It was not In writing nnd therefore
cannot bo enforced; that Doylo Is barred
In his attempt to recover by tho statute
of limitations nnd thnt oven tf ho tins a
i claim ho comes too lato lu Its assertion,
i nnd thoreforo Doyle must permit Burns to
keep his (Doylo's) properly, becauso he
did not sooner compel him to surrender It;
that oven If Doylo was n partner, entitled
to tho Interest, Burns may keep It, becauso
Doylo did not nt all times nnd places and
on every occn3lon nsscrt to others and
renssert to Burns thnt ho had tho interests
which Doylo claims Bunts always knew ho
hnd.
"Of all theso Issues thcro remains for
. tho consideration of tho jury but one
Whether or not tho partnership existed
j and Doylo hnd at ono time or nt nny tlmo
( nn Interest In theso thrco claims. The
I Btatuto of frauds Is not applicable. Tho
statute of limitations litis no application
here. Tho doctrlno of catoppol and delay
Is not Involved.
"Was there n partnership, and did t
J cover nnd apply o the Bobtnlll No 2, tho
i Dovll's Own and Tidal Wavo claims? It it
did, thon by cvory rule of law, fairness,
I right nnd morality Doylo should recover
j this action. Tho partnership, peculiar In
its diameter. Is known fnmlllnrly In tho re
gion whero clnlms nro located upon public
lands as a mining partnership. To avoid
the destruction of vulunblo rights In. the
I hands of thoso who have honestly done
tholr part by tho application nf technical
rules, with referenco to the formalities con
nected with the making of contracts, the
courts havo hold most Justly nnd properly
thnt no formal, specific, definite, from a
lawyer's standpoint unnsBnllnblo contract,
need bo mado. It is enough If the parties
go together, uniting their services, working
together, undergoing Hko hardships nnd pri
vations, nnd although no agreemeut for a
partnership was ever oxprcssed In written
words, tho law. In Its efforts to do Justice,
declared tho partnership to exist nnd pro
tects tho rights of nil couccrned.
"Doyle, always Industrious nnd willing,
worked for nnd under Burns, Whon con
troversies arose ho took risks nnd perils
and endured assaults, insults nnd Injuries
out of his friendship for mid connection
with Burns, Ho contributed his money in
connection with the work and ho labored
olecwhoro nnd brought tho proceeds of his
labor to bo used In the Joint enterprise. Ho
wrought with his owu hnnds by tho sldo of
Burns nnd Burns' hired man upon the prop
erties In controversy. Ho shared In nil that
ho should do to acquire tho property nnd
bow has a right to u division of It. These
