Plnkerton detectives extending over eight
een months. The technical charge against
him Is that he obtained money under false
pretenses from the Drumcflond Packing
company of Eau Claire, Wis. This com
pany Is said to be but one of many vic
tims, among them the Cudahy Packing
company of South Omaha.
Wegener's dealings in Omaha were upon
a somewhat different line than that for
which he has been arrested in Chicago.
He was the founder and manager ot the
Western Manufacturing company, maker of
grocers' sundries, and conducted that busi
ness in an apparently successful manner
for a few years. Later Wegener disposed
ot that concern and Incorporated the Santa
Clara Manufacturing company to make
starch, syrups and molastes. He rented the
building at 1211 Howard street and In
cidentally Induced Miss Jcttle Reynolds to
put up $10,000 In cash to place the com
pany upon a solid financial basis. Thurs
day, June 14, lMH). ho disappeared. It Is
charged, without having Invested Miss Rey
nolds' money In the business. She In
structed her attorneys, O'Neill and Gilbert,
to spare no effort to capture Wegener.
They employed the Tlnkerton National De
tective agency to run him down and a
reward of $100 was pffcred for bis arrest
and conviction. Tho Plnkertona aent cir
culars containing his description and pic
ture far and wide, but he eluded the of
ficers ot the law until this week, when he
was captured at his sister's home.
During his stay thero and afterward, It
Is alleged, that Wegener worked a gigantic
swindling scheme upon packing houses and
other business establishments in all parts
of the country- His plan was to secure
orders at greatly reduced prices for borax
and fill, them with n mixture resembling
the real article, but which. It Is alleged, did
not contain enough of It to form even an
adulterant. This mixture was used upon
meats for preservative purposes and its
character was not learned until its de
structlve effect bad become apparent.
Wegener represented himself at different
times as the owner of six different com
panies with high-sounding names, among
which were the Santa Clara Manufacturing
company, the Western Manufacturing com
pany, the Western Specialty company and
the Wegener Brokerage company
The particular offense for which Wegener
was arrested was reorted by the Drum
mond Packing company of Eau. Claire, Wis.
He called on President David Drummond
there, It Is alleged, February IS, 18SS, and
secured an order amounting to $113 for
his alleged borax. The company used the
stuff to preserve two carloads ot hams
which were sent to Liverpool and on a
third car to Bristol, England. The goods
spoiled and It cost the company more than
$10,000 to replace the shipments. Since
then the company searched unrelentingly

Progress. The speaker opened his re-
marks by saying that tbe people ot every
nation were willing to ronccde lhat the
United States had made greater progress
since the time ot Washington than any
other nation on earth. In 1731 all thcro
was of civilized America was a
along the Atlantic seaboard, and this part
of the country was an undiscovered land
Nearly 110 years havt passed since then
and we have grown stronger with age until
we stand the proudest, noblest, strongest
nation on earth. In China, across tbc Pa
clfic ocean, are assembled the soldiers of
all ot the nations ot the earth, and ill
noblest, the brightest of all is the Amer
ican soldier. He has marked this republic
as tbe republic of the world. Thus Is
proved the truth of the saying that the
greatest race will spring from an amalga
matlon ot the greatest of Individuals of
all races. While in politics we may have
our differences and become much exoltoj
and use Intemperate language in tbe heat
of campaigns, we are harmonious as a peo
pie and stand on all really Important ques
tions onx In heart and one In sentiment.

G. M Hitchcock responded to the toast
"Washington's Farewell Address." Th
sreaker announced that In his MuJy ot
hat addrets he had ascertained that Wash
lngton bad secured tbe services ot tbe
leading men of his cabinet In the prepara
tion ot that Important state paper and that
the marks of Jeffernon and of Hamilton
were plainly evident. He said that when
he began to read tbe address he thought
It was devoted to the subject of foreign
relations, but that he found that It was
really Intended to be a warning against
the tendency of people In a republic to let
party politics Influence their Judgment and
action. Taking this as a text he delivered
a masterly address In favor of a weakening
of tbe party spirit and a broader patriot
ism. Tne part or tne farewell address, th
speaker said, which deplored the party
spirit was the work of Washington, a man
who wns net a partisan.

which ascended to his beSroom from the
lower floor. He hastily arose and tip-toed
down tbe stairs. In a room off tbe hall he
plainly saw a man, who was crouching In
tbe shadow and seemed Intent upon doing
some mltcbtef. Mr. Fitch noiselessly re
traced hla steps to his bedroom and armed
himself with a revolver. Then he slipped
downstairs and locked the front and back
doors, retaining possession ot tbe keys.
The burglar was certainly cornered and
Mr. Fitch awaited patiently the time when
he should begin his bombardment. He
thought the man would have, to escape
through a window and then he could wing
him. No further sound camo from the
lower part ot tbe house and the knowledge
that be was alone In the house with a bold,
bad burglar was extremely disquieting, so
Mr. Fitch flung up his window and his cries
of "Thief! Thief! Burglar!" disturbed the
whole neighborhood.
Shadows soon began to Issue from the
front doors of nearby residences and a corn-
garments, martlaled In front ot Mr. Fitch's
window. The lawyer related the circum
stances ot his discovery of a nocturnal vis
itor and every means ot exit wae. guarded
by one or more of the half-dressed house
holders. Then Mr. Fitch boldly marched
downstairs, brandishing his revolver
through the darkness that hid every object
from his sight. Ho fondly caressed the
trigger and was prepared for an explosion
the moment he should lay eyes on the
housebreaker. Ho quietly opened the doors
leading from the hall, but no burglar was
to be found. Every nook and corner in the
house was carefully searched, but the pres
ence ot a stranger was not divulged. Then
Mr. Fitch began to realize tbat he was the.
victim of an overwrought Imagination or
else the burglar had mysteriously vanished,
and his neighbors were Informed of his
finding In the car.e. Shivering with the
cold, they made their way to their homes,
half disappointed because the excitement
ot capturing a real burglar had been denied
pany of men. attired In all torts ot neglige them.
