BARNARD, P. J.

The defendants were charged, in two . counts of an information, with conspiracy to commit theft and with grand theft. The defendant John Doe, who was referred to at the trial as a man named Roberts, seems to have been a mysterious stranger whom none of the others knew and who was never apprehended. The defendants Hines and Davis pleaded guilty.
