Plead Guilty.
George Wrend, who was arrested
about a month ago on the charge of
burglarizing a Union Pacific freight
car in the yards in this city, plead
guilty to the charge before Judge
Grimes Bitting in chambers Wed
nesday and waa sentenced to one
year in the penitentiary. Sheriff
Kcllhcr left with his prisoner for
Lincoln yesterday morning..
The goods taken by Reed con
sisted of bologna Hausage and
tobacco. He probably realizes now
that he made a mistake in not
working a half day and buying his
sausage and tobacco instead of
burglarizing the car.

Oov. Savage on the Hartley Parole.
Lincoln, Neb,, Aug, 27, 1901
As more or less controversy has
resulted from my action in grant
ing a limited parole to Joseph S.
Bartley and as I desire that the
public may have an intelligent un
derstanding of the attending cir
cumstances, I will state briefly the
substance of the conditions upon
which such action is based.
I was actuated in granting a pa
role, limited to sixty days, because
I had knowledge that after Mr.
Bartlcys's retirement from oilice he
maintained that if given a year's
time in which to realize on his
arrangements, he would be able to
pay the state every dollar due it.
The fact that in a space of about
forty days after he surrendered the
ofh.ee to hia successor he had paid
in over $1,10,000.00. 520,000 of which
was paid on the day of his arrest,
strengthened both by his state
ments, repeatedly made to me, that
ho would pay back every dollar of
his shortage, and my belief that if
given an opportunity at this time
he would undertake to carry out
his promises, with the object
In view of relieving the taxpayers
and of removing this painful ac
count trom the pages of the records
after four years of expensive littga
tiou from which not one cent has
been recovered from either the
principal or bondsmen, I granted
the parole with the understanding
on my part that he, Bartley, was to
proceed to reimburse the state and
in addition was to render au ac
countinirof the funds lost in banks
from which he was unable to re
cover, which materially reduces the
amount puuiisueu uy tue news
papers as having been misappro
priated. Hundreds of people of
various political affiliations had
petitioned me to grant, not a
parole, but a full and unconditional
