- Young William B. Loy Turned Over to the Government— Taken Back to Fort Wright—Farewell Reception For Supt. and Mrs. Holmes This Evening—Death of Charles A. Greene. ¥ el Lisutenant H. G. Douglass of Fort Hm came to Westerly, Friday, and ved from Chief of Police Brown, William B. Loy, of the Second com- Coast artillery corps, who had been in the police station since last Tuesday morning under arrest on' the charge of stealing a watch valued at $15 from George Pickering. Loy was ed ~before Judge Williams in the Third district court Tuesday, but was not put to plea as he had no coun- sel, and claimed ignorance of having committed the theft. George R. McKenna, counsel for Loy, when the case came up for disposition, asked for continued leniency on the part of the court. He said Loy was only 18 and that the present trouble was due to bad company and exces- sive drink. He said that if theft had been committed. Loy was so much un. der the influence of liquor that he ha no knowledge of the crime. The fed- eral government meted punishment to sohdiers when the offense was only in- toxication. He asked that the court permit all punishment in the case to be_inflicted by the federal government, *Fown Solicitor Harry B. Agard said that in this case the charge was lar- ceny, the value small, and the fact that the stolen property was recovered was for the benefit of the respondent. While the federal government in no way in- terfered with the civil government in criminal cases, the federal government does take cognizance of the commis- sion of crime by soldiers when b vond as well as when upon govern- ment reservation. The officers in (he army knew this man and his record better than did the civil authorities of Westerly and were therefore better fit- ter for inflicting punishment fitting the crime. The government has certain claims against the man and is compe- tent to make him a better soldier and a better citizen, and the better place to reform this soldier is at the army post rather than in the prison at Cran- ston. Mr. Agard said he proposed to noile the cage, as the officers at Fort Wright speak reasonably well of this voung soldier. He was turning him loose, however, as a pos- sible thief, to become a deserter from the army. In view of all the circum stances and with the plain under- standing that Loy would be turned | over to the military authorities, moved to nolle, insisting, however, (hat assurance be given in open court that Loy waive any possible rights he may be nursing concerning his detention. After consuitation with the accused Attorney McKenna stated that he w. fuily authorized to state that all rights if any there are, in regard to any rights or clalms for detention, were absolutely waived. Judge Williams granted the motion to nolle the case and Loy was given over to the cus- tody of Lieutenant Douglass . During the past three years Rhode JEWETT CITY.
