Ii making a wholesale round-up of the alleged agents, several white men were taken into custody and place! under heavy bond.

The other cars are said to belong to residents of Charleston, Columbia, and other South Carolina cities. Authorities declare that the ring el' thieves has been broken and with Uutke, it3 alleged leader, already said to have confessed, it is believed that the wholesale theft of automobiles in this' section has been checked. lJurkc, who is in confinement at the Richmond county jail, has not been admitted to bond, and will probably be required to face charges in botn .state and federal courts. Deputy Sheriff Whittle, Officer Williamson and Agent Carter have been highly commended by Sheriff J. T. IMunkett for a great service rendered the com munity in recovering the stolen cars. Just a.

The judge sa id : "Young man, you do not' know any thing about the value of life. Vou : d?> not seem to appl'eciate the | seriousness of your offense.
