Young Lawrence Loughlin Convicted
of Having Stolen a Bag of Rags.
Acquitted of Other Charge.
Young Liwrence LougbUn was yes
terday 00-vloted of huviiiir stolen a
big of rags from Moses Cohen, but
recommended to tue extrems mercy of
the court.
The boy went on the stand and swore
tnnt the rags exhibited in court by
Moses Cohen were not tne ones lie sold
to Harris Cohen. He said that on July
8 liis mother gave hiin a bag of rags to
sell as a reward for picking coal. Thil
was done to enable him to get m iney
for to celebrate July 4 Evidently the
jury did not believe linn.
After the case was given to the j iry
Lougblau was immediately arraigned
on auother charge of Jaroeny and ro-c-iving
before Judge Archbald. It was
alleged that on July 10, last, about '-.' 3d
in the afternoon he entered the store of
Thomas Cavanangb, at Cirbondale,
while Mr. aud Mrs. Cavanaugh were at
their home across the street eating
lunch. It is said that young Lovgblan
forced opeu the door of a small room in
the rear or the store and stole u box con
taining $10.
Mrs. Caviinanirh sw Loughlin leav
ing tho store and cried after him, but
he pretended not to hear her After
the testimony for the prosecution had
been beard Attorney B-amish asked
the judge to return a verdict of not
guilty, for the reason that the com
tnon wealth did not disclose the length
of absence from tho storo of the Cuv
uianghs or that the b y was een en
tering the store; that he was only seiii
leaving it and that some other p?rs n
might have committed the theft, as no
portion of the mo.iey was traced to the
possession of the boy.
Judge Archbald ruled that Mr.
Besmisb's position wns correct and dl
rected a verdict ot not guilty. It is
probable that oti Saturday the court
will direct that the boy be sent to tho
House of Refuge.
He is charged with the larceuy of a
muff aud sum of money from a store
iu Carbondale a short time ago, but
tho case has not yet been presented to
the grand jury nnd it is thought nd
visablo to place him beyond the pale ol'
temptation.
Wl open in our new store this morning.
