Trevaine was arrested on the charge of Tre vaine had been In Omaha for several months and had done for the Omaha Tinware Manufacturing company, located the corner of Twentieth and Vinton streets. He tried in police court and held by Judge Berka to the district court in the sum of $800, but he nev al and there don't scom to be any good re why he was not prosecuted in the distriet court. It in the preliminary hearing in police court that Trevaine had presented, in payment of a bill at L. W. Sautter's gro- cery store a check purporing to be for $53 drawn on a bank at Little Rock and en- dorsed by Trevaine. The grocer accepted the check and gave change to the amount of $18 in cash. When Mr. Sautter presented the check at the F t National bank the paying teller glanced at the writing and at once pronounced it a forgery. After Tre- vaine had been committed to jail it was dis- covered that several other worthless checks endorsed by him had been passed parts of the city, and these matte reported to the county attorney. The dence appeared to be conclusive, and a hal{ dozen cases were held In reserve to be used in case the man was not convicted on the original complaint filed by Mr. Sautter. But none of the other cases ever called, Mr. Trevaine had a way of getting out of Jail that did not have any ence to the use of witnesses Witnesses in the Sautter case were sub- poenaed for December 19, but when they ap- peared in court they were informed that the case had been continued until the Fe ruary term of court. The witnesses re- ceived no further notice, but on February 27, 1894, the county aftorney nolled the case and the dant was discharged from custod, There are no papers on file in the case in the district court. The papers have been taken away and the lawyer who got them has failed to furnish the customary receipt for the documents. The only records are the entries giving the title the cas “State of Nebraska vs V. J. Travin, forgery and uttering forged paper.” The date of arraignment, December 18, 1893, the date of the nolle prosequi February 27, 1894, and the names of the witnesses complete the record of the case, so far as the district clerk 1s concerned.

Frank N. Clarke, the paying teller at the First National bank, is the man who threw out the check presented by Mr. Saut ter. His name does not appear on the district clerk's do as a witness, but his testimony was given at the preliminary hearing at the police court. Mr. Clarke safd that at first glance the check looked suspicious, as it had been made out on & blank used as a sample by some lithograph g house with the word “sample,” which had been printed on the lower margin, very cleverly cut off, and on examination he was convinced that the writing on the face of the check and the endorsement was the work-of the same man. In response to a gram to Little Rock, Ark., Mr. Clarke % word was received that the check was worthless. This the substance of Mr. Clarke's testimony at the preliminary in vestigation at the police court. After the preliminary investigation while, Trovaine was in the county fail Mr. Clarke was sent for by the prisoner or some one interested in his behalf. He called upon Trevaine, who tried to convince him that there had been no forgery. He was somewhat noncommittal and his services were dispensed with after that, He does not vemember whether he was subpocnaed to appear before the district court, but at any rate he never appearcd and heard no more of the until he met Trevaine on the street after his reles He says he is con vinced that the check was a but apparently no one wanted him state before the court TRIED TO CATCH OTHER VICTIMS Councilman Frank Burkley of the Burk ley Printing company is another man who know cthing about the revaine forgery case Mr. Burkley states that shortly before the arrest Trevaine had been figuring with him for a contract on litho- graphic work and particularly on his ability to lithograph directly on tin. After he had plishied an acquaintance Trevaine made n effort to have Mr. Burkley endorse a check but failed. Domfnick Hart, who runs a saloon at Sixteenth and_Cabitol avenue, became con- vin that Trevaine was a good fellow and cashed one of his checks for $1¢ He discovered the check to be a forgery and threatened to have Trev rrested. The motey was then refunded. Hart was one of the witnesses ready to.testify in court, but was never called. WHAT THE B NOT USED, was POLICE KNOW. The police authorities knew Trevaine very well. His picture adorns the rogues’ gal lery in every large city in the country and the local authorities w keeping track of him while he was in jail with a view of having his record fully looked up before he got out of his trouble with the forg The authorities were very much surprised then & few days ago to find that the man had been dismissed by the county attorney. One of he best detectives in the city ays that evaine is a_counterfeiter, and was at the head of the gang that flooded this city and Council Blufts with counterfeit $10 bills a few years or so ago. When he was in jall be- fore his preliminary trial Trevaine told City Jailer Havey that he had at one time been mixed up with a_gang that had plans laid to defraud the Brazilfan government, but that the plans missed fire and the gang was broken up. He also admitted to Havey his connection with another man in the city, also an expert lithographer, who had a stone prepared for a trial at counterfeiting in Omaha, and Mr. Havey notified the fed- eral authorities of the fact and a well known United States detcetive went to the fail o see Trevaine, but he had been dismissed by the county authorities. Trevaine is at liberty and reports have been received from Sioux City and other points where he has worked his scheme since he left Omaha and before he came here. Judge Tipton, who was also Wool- ington’s attorney, wears the fine gold watch which Trevaine had when arrested, and at least five men in Omaha who lost money are wondering what the laws wre for. e o L Anything new?

Sautter, one of the complaining witnesses, and one of Trevaine's victims, has a grocery store at 1047 South Twentieth street. He was seen by a reporter. Mr. Sautter was not in a good humor about the matter at all. “I don’t understand it," he said. “Trevaine was employed as a litho- grather in the tin works across the way and owed me a bill of $12. One day he came to me with a check on a bank in Little Rock, Ark., endorsed by himself, for $53, and I gave him the change. Shortly after- wards I went over to see Mr. Allen of the tin works and we concluded the check was a forgery. Then it was taken to the First National bank and the cashier threw it out. Trevaine was arrested and the police judge held him to the district court under bhonds of $800. We were all subpoenaed to the district court on December 19, and were told that the case had been' continued to the February term. This was the last of it. “Trevaine’s wife came to my store several times with a pitiful story and asked me to have mercy on her husband, and to make w statement (o the county attorney or the court, or somebody, to the effect that Tre- vaine was innocent of the crime charged Of course 1 refused, for I knew that he was guilty. Her attorney, J. G. Tipton, came to seo me also and got the same answer. I wanted the man to have a fair trial. In February we went to the court again and reiterated our belief that the man was guilty, but there was no trial of any sort. Non of us testified, but Mr. Slabaugh told the judge that he had no good testimony and Trevaine went free. It was the strang- est thing 1 ever heard of." WAS SURE OF TREVAINE'S GUILT. Joseph Allen of the Omaha Tinware Man- ufacturing company was e N more aston- ished at the turn of the case than was Mr. auttor. “Why,” sald he, ‘it was the clearest case of forgery I ever heard of.
