FISHER DEPARTED
UNDER CLOUD
TOOK AIRS. TRUDO'S WATCH : LEAVES
SEVERAL BILLS UNPAID.
SIICRIPP KENNEDY GOT WATCH
County Attorney Gullcrson Could Not
Issue Warrant for His Arrast
And lie was Allowed to Re
main in Grand Island.
Will Fisher , a painter who has
been in the cit } * for six months ,
left Monday night lor Grand Is
land and took with him a gold
watch and fob belonging to Mrs.
Trudo , daughter of Mrs. A. E
Gandy. Ho left several unpaid
bills behind him. Dr. Dodd has
a bill against him for over fifty
dollars , Brueggcman & Stcinway
the popular tailors , are short
twenty-three dollars on a suit of
clothes they made for him and
delivered Monday , and Tom Fin-
len has not been paid a five dollar
lar liver } ' bill.
Fisher had been boarding at
Mrs. Gaudy's and her daughter
had loaned him the watch and
fob , which she values at about
forty dollars. Fisher telephoned
te her Monday evening that he
was going away and would be up
to get his clothes. When he went
up to get his baggage about half
an hour before train time Mrs.
Trudo asked him for the watch ,
and he replied that he would be
back in twenty minutes and give
it to her. . She demanded it on
the spot and he refused to give
it up and did not return. Mrs.
Gaudy then went up to his room
and found that all of his belong
ings had been removed and the
condition of the screen over the
window indicated that he had at
tempted to pry off the screen and
throw his clothes out of the win
dow in order to leave without her
finding it out. She notified Mar
shal Shackleford and asked him
to watch the trains. Fisher ,
however , evaded "Shack" and
made good hiw get away.
Sheriff Kennedy later learned
that Kirk Douglas had purchased
a ticket to Grand Island for Fish
er and had had his suit cases ex
pressed. Kennedy found him in
the Island Tuesday , got the
watch and fob and then turned
him loose on a promise that he
would be back in two weeks and
pay up his bills
Fisher said he had paid up his
board for a few days in advance
and was holding the watch in
order to get his money back.
Mrs. Trudo says that she can
yet witnesses to prove that while
he was in Broken Bow he offered
to put the watch up for ten dollars
lars in a poker game and she is
of the opinion that he was trying-
to get away with the watch with
the intention of keep'ug or dis
posing of it.
County Attorney Gutterson re
fused to furnish Sheriff Kennedy
a warrant for his arrest because
in his opinion the act of taking
the watch with him under the
circumstances did not constitute
a criminal offence.
