Morris Lanlgan's tearful protests
Hons of innocence touched the heart
of United States Attorney Howell.
Morris was arrested in South
Omaha on a charge of breaking into
box cars and stealing goods being
conveyed In interstate commerce. He
was to have had a hearing before the
United States commissioner, but on
account of witnesses not being pres
ent the hearing was put over until
April 10. Morris couldn't furnish
bond and the prospect of returning to
jail during the interim was not one
of those prospects which pleases.
Thry were in the I'nitrd States attor
ney's office.
"Now, see hrre," paid Mr. Howell, shak
ing a finger at Morris, "If I let you go
will you show up hrre at the time art
for your hearing?"
Morris declared that trn years In the
penitentiary wouldn't keep litm from ap
pearing. 'Well," said Mr. Howell, "I'm going- to
let you out Just on your promise. It's
Just between you and me, and i don't
believe you'll disappoint nie. It was some
what thr government's fault for not hav
ing witnesses here." s
A bond was signed by Morris' wife.
"Judse. 1 tliank you from the bottom
of my heart, and 1 won't never throw
j ou down," Morris declared to Mr.
Howell.
