Robert Bennett, twenty-four years old and married, got himself into serious trouble Saturday night, when he attempted to dis- pose of the stock of feed in his employers’ place of business. Robert had been in the employ of William James & Son, retail feed dealers, at 941_B street. He had always been a trusted employe, but recently his employers had reason to suspect that he was not doing the proper thing, and Sat- urday night Harry James, the junior mem- ber of the firm, and a friend named John Scrivener agreed to watch the place.
