In the Court of General Sessions yesterday afternoon the case of the State against Joseph Heins, Jacob Lindauer, Martin Smith and "Butch" Muller, was called. The indictment charged that these men with Fritz Schneider, who has not yet been captured, had broken into the residence of Martin Hubbe, at Bayonne, on January 11th, and stolen clothing and other articles to the value of $175. The men have been in jail for several months, and all looked careworn. When they appeared in court they were accompanied by their counsel, Messrs. Lippencott, Daly and McGrath. ... In opening the case Mr. McGill said that at the time of the robbery at Mr. Hubbe's there had been many burglarious operations in New Jersey, and the police, in looking for other goods, found a place kept by Lindauer at 141 Mott street, where a large portion of the goods stolen from Hubbe's were found. Some of the good were found on the persons of the prisoners. The case is one of presumptive evidence, it being accepted that a person leaving stolen goods must be the thief. ... Frederick Lindauer, the brother of Jacob, went to the house with us, but did not go in. I had been in front of the house once before, and then accompanied by Fred Lindauer. The case will be continued today. (English)
