About five or six weeks ago the residence of Mel. Cox on North Poplar street, was entered by burglars and a lot of property carried off. A few nights ago Mrs. Drissel's house on East Third street, was also visited and a quantity of articles stolen. Both cases were given to MArshal Schlegel to work on, and he succeeded so well in tracing the burglars and hunting them down, that at five o'clock this morning, armed with a search warrant, and accompanied by Officers Sell and Louzenheiser, he proceeded to the dwelling of Frank Walters, corner of East Second and Slusser streets, and there found Walters and his stepson, Frank Newman, both of whom were arrested. A search was made of the house, which brought to light a lot of canned fruit and baskets, stolen from Mel Cox's residence, and some baskets, a pitcher and other articles, identified as being part of the property taken from Mrs. Drissel's residence. Walters and Newman were takend to the city prison and locked up to await a hearing before the Mayor." [8]

"DECLARED INSANE.
Frank Walter of this city was yesterday adjudged insane by Judge Wise.

Application has been made for his acceptance at the Toledo hospital for the insane. Mr Walter was formerly engaged in the furniture installment business at the corner of Market and Second streets." |

Notes |
- The 1899 "Canton Official City Directory" lists him as a resident with Catherine A (Numan) at 720 Marion St, though she is listed separately as his widow and he is said to have died at the Massillon State Hospital in November of 1898. It is likely that he died as the information to compile the 1899 directory was being gathered, leading to the confusing listings.
