He was hal{xl by State Policemen Jackson and Ruad and after a controversy was arrested and brought before Justice of th Peace George Griswold. Then, said Attorney Geary, Samuels was found gulity without any court having held session and without any warrant hav- ing been drawn up agalpst nim and was ordereq to leave 350 for an ap- peal. The receipt given Samuels for the $50, the attorney said, stated that it was for an appeal to the superior court, to which the case could not come on appeal. He said unfortunate- ly he had mislaid the receipt and could not produce it. Mr. Geary said the information on which the case in the common pleas court against Semuels was based set forth that Samuels had been regularly presented in court, which was not o, {and that it purported to be regularly | signed by Grand Juror Joseph C.
