Watch Taken From Swede Leads to Arrests in Anaconda
In Anaconda, Willie Johnson, a mulatto, was sentenced to six months in jail and fined for grabbing a watch from Andrew Hill, a Swede, at 2 am on a Mallville street. Hill reported the theft after realizing the loss, aiding officers who traced Johnson to the East End. Judge Kennedy imposed a unit sentence while Hill’s conduct in court drew fines. Local youths face rising drunkenness, with Mike Bracken and Albert La Beau jailed for intoxication after a night of disorder, as residents blame lax minors’ access to beer. Police continue investigations into stolen bridles and harness from Oak Street stables, with Ives Smith admitting involvement and awaiting trial in the county jail.
