CAGED FOR AN AWFUL CRIME
Omaha Police Elated at the ( hpturo of Dink
Wilson at Sjracuse ,
CHAPTERS FROM A CHECKERED CAREER
One of the i\Vor t Crnoki on the Con.
tlncnt Mr. unit Mrs. Wtirirll De-
flt\a \ that Martlnco AVn n Mill-
urc Minor I'olloo .Mutter * .
"Dink" Wilson , an old Omaha Crook ,
Is held In Syracuse for the murder of
Detective James Unrvcy In that city on
July 81. The gang of burglars , of which
' Dink1' ' Is tno head , has been working
through Now York state and mooting with
considerable opposition from the vigilant po
lice. One of the burglars was wounded at
Ovlu nnd another was killed In the light lit
Syracuse In which Dotectlvo Harvey lost his
life. "Dink" was captured at the tlmo and
It now being held for murder.
The gang has n local reputation. About
four years ago "Dink" and a pal wore
rvrrcsted atTopoka for having a sot of burg
lar tools In their possession. They hadidono
no Job In the place , but were flned $100 each
Tor having the weapons of their calling In
their possession. The.v sent a telegram to u
ulster of Wilson , who lived nt Twenty-eighth
nnd Cassius streets. Nettle Wilson went to
Topcka and paid the line of the men , and the
authorities of the Kansas capital acquainted
the Omaha police with the facts In the case.
The Information came the morning after a
butcher shop had been burglarized , evidently
by exports , and the safe blown. The police
went to the residence of the Wilson family
nnd arrested ' 'Dink" and a pal in bed. They
could not bo proven guilty of the burglary ,
however , nnd were discharged. Soon after
this the street car barns on Ames avcnuo
were burglarised and u largo amount of
money stolen from the safo. The Wilsons
were suspected of having done the Job and
several othars that wore turned about that
tlmo. but could not bo caught in any of them.
The close espionage of the police was ap
parently distasteful to the gang r.nd the
male members of the party loft Omaha.
This was in the summer of 1801 , and a few
days after the gang loft Omaha a train was
robbed at St. Louis and the express car
touched to the extent of about $150,000.
Two of the men were captured and sent to
the pen for II fn. It was pretty well estab
lished that "Dink" Wilson was the leader of
the robbers , but ho escaped and has evaded
police vigilance until caught In the nflair for
which ho is now In Jail In Syracuse.
Soon after the express car robbery In St.
Ix > uls the authorities hero wore notified tc
looli out for Wilson. Detect ivo Vuughn was
given the case and visited the house dis-
pulsed as a peddler of Jewelry. Ho was get
ting along linely and was in a fair way to
Jocato the gang. Ho had an engagement to
call again , but when ho loft thoiplaco he for
got his note book , which contained accurate
descriptions of the men who were wanted ,
The next time the detective called the house
was deserted. The Wilsons had moved tc
.Denver or Salt Lake or some city In the weal
nnd had not left any address for the Jewelry
peddler.
Chief of Police Seavey was In a position tc
nld the Syracuse otllctals In their search foi
the Wilson outfit. Ho has been working ot
the case for some tlmo nnd hud Just locatc (
the other members of the family upon r
farm near Wllliamsport , Pa. , where Ncttii
Wilson and the mother of the boys are sup
posed to bo. It Is thought that the gant
bought this place from the proceeds ot tin
6t , Louis robbery and have been using tin
farm as n hiding place when not engaged ii
their robjilng expeditions.
It Is liouiiiifottv certain that the cxcellcn
service of "thofOmaha ohlol of police wil
result In the capture of the entire gang.
The local police are elated over the cap
turo. Wilson was a lather , by trade , but dii
not work nt hla calling very steadily. II
found , better profits In the burglary business
_ Reported MI | IIK : .
A relatfvlTbf J. C. Holt , who lives at 130
Ner'rfi Sovpntceuth street , reported to th

morning that ho was missing froi
liomo. Mr. Holt came down tow
early In the evening and his family though
ho had attended trio council mooting. He i
n man of regular and exemplary habits an
his relatives were much worried over his ui ;
explained absence , fearing that ho had me

to do it. Two families visited last wee
wcro found living together with nothing 1

1 have been going to the court house th
many years for help for different person
but never before at this season of the yoi
have I seen ao many people applying f <
help nicely dressed children and rcspcc
nble looking people. Surely help will confer
for them before cold weather ,
C One poor , aged couple who have nnvi
asked help through this long , todtous life
Journey now ask for transportation to

inea support it they can only reach her.

Hank Ilelnc Adjuitod.
Mr. John L. McCaguo was asked yester
day for a statement as to the prooa-
bility of the American National resuming
business in the near future , along the
line outlined in the morning dispatches
from Washington. Ho declined to say
anything for publication at this time ,
but ho was evidently in a very happy frame
of mind , and finally admitted that tha state
ment of Comptroller Eckels gave the situa
tion just as it was , That was the oxtcut of
what ho could bo' Induced to say , beyond
vouchsafing the information that it would
bo a bolter time toitttlk in a few days than
nt the present timo.
From a talk with. National Dank Examiner
Grifllths , who still has charge of the bank ,
the Impression was received that it was
almost a dead openiand shut that the bank
would resume. Ho sr.id that matters
were progressing most favorably , but
when asked snuarely whether or not
the bank would open , ho said that
ho did not want to make a definite
statement until the arrangements were posi
tively made. From other sources it was
learned that the collections hau boon re
markably urood , and that a very larce sum
of money.has already boon turned Into the
bank. The comptroller extended the time
giventhe''bauk to pull itself ctOKOtho.r. from
August 15 to August 20 aud it
is Vorjie certain that affairs are
progressing so encournslngly that.ln case the
additional' 11 vo days is not sufficient oven
more tlmo will bo allowedj It Is very prob
able , howoyor , that' the arrangements will
bo completed within the next three or four
days , as an eastern capitalist' is on t.is way
here , who is expected to make the deciding
move. Dut for illness in his family ,
which caused him to turn back' ' after a pre
vious start , ' the matter would , undoubtedly
have boeti settled before this. . The indica
tions point to ono or two new oflicers under
the new order of affairs , which will bo duo ,
however , to the new capital brought into tliu
bauk , and not to nuv mismanagement or in
judicious actiou on the part of the old of
ficials.

Only by extraordinary efforts did the
Omaha delegation to the last biennial na
tional Schuot7onfest at St. Louis succeed In
getting this year's tournament for the Gate
City.
At that time St. Louis citizens , almosl
without exception , contributed to make the
affair what it was a grand success whicl :
will long bo remembered by the residents ol
that southern city and sharpshooters every
where.
From present indications Omaha will sur
pass all former receptions to the visitors
but much is yet to bo accomplished. Tin
time is very short only five more days Inter
vcning between this and the day of the com
mencumunt of the Schuotzonfest , at whicl :
an attendance of fully 700 crack rillo shots
is expected.
The Omaha Schuetzonvoroin and espo
chilly the members of the several commit
tees have worked indefatigably , meotitif
daily to make thu arrangements as pcrfcci
as possible , so that thu visitors might carri
away as good au impression of this city a :
they did of St. Louis two years ago. To u <
all this some expenses necessarily had to b (
incurred. Ilusinoss men and others wen
asked tor assistance. So far quite a numbei
have responded and furnished means for tin
proper entertainment of the guests , win
will reach Omaha on the 21st and remain fo :
seven days.
The shooting will bo at Schuotzonparl
( Rusor's ) . 1'rizo * aggregating fr..OOU ti
$7,000 will bo awarded to individuals am
teams according to the program as publishci

The monetary question must bo settled at once. "So says
the" Chief Executive in his document to Congress. The
speediest way of settling such a question in our opinion would
be to satisfy every creed. According to silverttcs the white
metal is the pqpr man's money ; if so let him have his share
and retire. The worshiper of goltl who claims a silver dollar
worth but 580 is entitled to a privilege of paying iSoc for every
dollar he spends , if he is honestly inclined. If the treasury of
our prosperous country has too much silver within its vaults ,
according to the ideas of some , let them dump it in the Chesa
peake Bay. If anyone in our vicinity has too much silver
fetch it for "Safe Investment" to Nebraska Clothing Co.
The way we define the silver question , 412 grains of
silver , 9-10 pure , moulded in shape of a dollar , will buy $1.50
worth oi goods this entire week.
At this ratio you can buy anything about the house. 'Tig
an "Odd and End" sale of Spring and Summer stock , and all
goods in every department are "in it. "
Besides a lightweight suit , stacks of cool furnishings
and apparel you need right now , you will find medium weight
clothing , furnishings for the fall and winter , light and heavy
weight shoes , and hats that are "just out. " All included one
dollar buys one and a half dollars worth ;
Quite a sacrifice , ain't it ? Can't help it. To carry goods
to next season , is entirely against our principle. Besides , we
are crowded. Every inch of space on each of our four floors
is crowded already and three car loads of Fall and Winter
ware to hear from.
Speaking of Fall and Winter goods , we can't help mention-
ng. So far we unpacked the loveliest lines that human skill
jroduced. Repeating the language of our buyer , The finest in
he market , cheaper than "Free Trade" prices , low enough fore
: o create a sensation.
Our semi-annual catalogue (1893-4) ( ) now ready. If you
lave failed to receive one send your address. We'll do
he rest.
