RECOVER STOLEN CAR.

W. M. Gifford Arrested Near Gilman With Car in Possession.

W. M. Gifford, 612 West Nevada street, was arrested late Wednesday night at a farm house five miles north of Gilman, charged with the theft of an automobile belonging to M. C. Ros-kopf, which Roskopf alleges was taken Sunday night. Gifford was driving the car. in company with two girls and an­other man. He was brought to this city and placed in jail.

Today, before County Attorney Scott and Sheriff EM gar, Gifford signed a written confession stating that he se­cured the car last Sunday, and had given Roskopf a worthless check in payment The statement that he se­cured it Sunday precludes a former statement made by Roskopf that the car was taken from the garage at the Marsballtown Buggy Company place of business early Monday morning.

Gifford was arrested by Sheriff Ed­gar, who. In company with Roskopf, went to the farm house where the girl i with whom Gifford was riding boards. Roskopf had received a telephone mes­sage earlier In the evening from Gil-man, Informing him that a car answer­ing a description given in the T.-R. was standing hi front of a moving pic­ture show In Gilman, and that Gifford

.was in the fhow with two young ladies and another man.

Sheriff Edgar and Roskopf drove at once to the farm house where the young ladies were staying, and waited until Gifford drove up. He was then placed under arrest, and made no at­tempt to conceal the fact that he had taken the automobile.

From residents of Gilman Roskopf says he learned that Gifford had been there with the car for the past three days, representing himself as a partner of Roskopf, and trying to sell the car in Gilman. Having seen the story of the stolen car in the Times-Republican, the suspicions of several people were aroused, and Roskopf was notified.

That Gifford was< not content with having stolen a car was shown this morning when it was found that he had cashed a worthless check for $25 on the Marshalltown State Bank at the First National Bank at Montour on Tuesday. Gifford has no funds at the local bank. Another development in the case was the fact that Gifford h*d negotiated with Rofkopf to buy the car and had given him a cheek for 51,120 on Sunday. The check proved to be worthless. Asked why he had taken the car Gifford said he "didn't know," but his conscience had been vhurting him, and he had planned to re­turn the automobile this morning, ac­cording to Mr. Roskopf.

Gifford tvns jirrpsteri on a warrant issued from Justic? Burritt's curt, and his cas»e was set for 9 o'c'cck Snturd^y morning. His bond was fixed at 51.001*

According to the story told by Ros­kopf Gifford had closed the deal for the car on Sunday, gave Roskopf the check, and wanted to take poss?ssion of the machine. Roskopf told him he could take the car Sunday af'.ernoon, but that he would not give him a bi!! of sale until he had cashed the chjck Monday morning.
