Show THEY HAVE HIM. J. E. Chirpillod Alias Edmonds Ed-monds is Under Arrest AT LOS ANGELES, CAL. He Was Sailing' Under the Names of Tom "Cook and Charlie Boss Requisition Papers Pa-pers Will be Secured and Hebe Brought Back and Tried for Incest. Readers of this paper of course remember re-member the Chirpillod incest case tried before Judge Smith last fall in which the jury disagreed and in which the defendants J. E. Cliirpillod . and his sister Maud Cafson were put under bonds awaiting a trial. The evidence for the prosecution went to show that Cbirpillod and his sister had been living liv-ing together for Eeveral months as man and wife under the name of Mr. and Mrs. Edmonds, whereas the evidence for the defense went io show that Mrs. Carson left her husband and went to her brother and lived under an assumed as-sumed name for protection, she alleging alleg-ing that her husband G. W. Carson of Grand Junction, had treated her cruelly in consequence of which she was afraid of him. Chirpillod is a tall, muscular man, dark complexioned, with nne eye out and bears a reputation anything but enviable, and his face to say the least does not read well. Immediately on being released on bonds he went supposedly sup-posedly into Wyoming, where it was alleged he had large cattle interests When the case came on for trial it was represented that he could not get to court at that time without sustaining a heavy loss that could be avoided if continuance was had in the hearing of the case and a postponement was allowed. Later it tranepired that he had skipped his bonds and Sume week or ten days the officers learned that he was in the vicinity of Los Angeles where he was known as Tom Cook and also as Charlie Ross. Deputy Marsh! Norrell forwarded for-warded a description of tlie man and was rewarded today by receiving the following telegram: Los Angeles, Cul. March 21. To IF. O. Norrell, Deputy U. iS. Marshal, Proro, Utah: Have J. E. Chirpillod in custody. Admits being the man. Answer. J. C. Cum. As soon as arrangements can be made and requisition papi-rs secured, Mr. Norrell Or some one ot the other deputies depu-ties will ?o after Mr. Chirpillod and his case will come on for trial. His recent re-cent escapades will not help his chances for liberty nor mitigate in any way the sentence that is almost sure to be passed upon him at no yery lata date. |
