He said the po- lice were attempting to “railroac Grabowski and it was only the “honest, fair efforts of Mr. Green- atein that the state had any show at all in the case. Reiterating his prisoners are abused, he continued “Even the lawyers are abused.

Mr. Connolly stated this morning | that the reason the girls at the Long | Lane farm have not been returned | to their home is because the 18th month period was not the end of the sentence but the bheginning of the optional parole period and the officials at the home are not satis- fied that they are ready to go home. He says there is no connection be- tween the two girls and the other three children. No Reason For wis 1o reason children should have way, according to Mrs. < of Oak street, who resided near where Romuine family lived the time. Mrs. Collins waxed indig- rant last evening in corroborating statements made by Mrs. Romaine that the children were taken away she was choked, knocked down and otherwise roughly treated by the po- lice and humane agents. “They sur- | rounded my house until the neigh- hors thought there was a murder there” interjected Mr. Romaine.
