EVIDENCE AGAINST MEN ACCUMULATES

Coavlrtioa Sir.
With the arrest estrrdav of two murf
suspects the authorities are confident that
they have In custody the four men Impli
cated In the attempt to rob the bank of
Treynor Friday night. The two men ar
rested Brave the name of Fred Colgate and
C. II. Groff at the city Jail, but at the
Kevere house, where they were tak'-n into
custody, Colgate registered as F. II. H1
gate. They are said to be the two men
who were discovered Saturday evening
.hiding In the barn on the farm of Arthur
Raax and were arretted by the police at
10 o'clock yesterday morning on description
sent by Sheriff Canning from Treynor.
Saturday evening, about 5 o'clock, a man
In the employ of Saar went to the barn from
which tho two men. Bernstein and Arthur,
arrested Saturday, had been driven earlier
In the day, and discovered two more men
hidden In the hay. One of the fellows,
as soon as he found they were discovered,
attempted to assault the hired man, but
the latter made his escape and went to
the house to get assistance. In the mean
time the fellows had cleared out and It
was supposed they would make their way
to Council Bluffs and word was telephoned
Into the sheriff a office.
The two men arrested yesterday morning
arrived in the city about t o'clock Satur
day night They represented themselves
to be members of the Fraternal Order of
Eagles and solicited aid from several of the
local members to assist -them In making
their way to Denver, Colo. By one of the
members they were provided with lodging
at the Revere house.
They were still in bed at 10 o'clock yes
terday morning when the police arrested
them, as they answered the description of
the two men found In Soar's barn and who
had been seen in Treynor Friday preceding
the attempted robbery. Colgate had no
overcoat and It Is thought that the over
coat found in the rig which had evidently
been abandoned by the robbers, belongs to
him.
Probably Carefully rianned.
The officers secured evidence yesterday
which leads to the belief that the attempt
to rob the bank had been carefully planned
for several days before. It was learned
yesterday that a stranger had been staying
around Treynor for aJmost a week papt
without any visible reason. He claimed
to be from Dallas, Tex., and stated that
he was enjoying a vacation. After the at
tempted robbery Friday night he was not
een around. It Is now thought that he
was Implicated In the attempt and was sent
ahead by the ang to learn the lay of the
land.
Yesterday Bernstein, the younger of the
two men arrested Saturday, was questioned
for nearly two hours by member of the
sheriff's force, but he would admit nothing,
although when1 he was told that the evi
dence against him was complete and that
by making a confession he might possibly
ihorten his sentence 1n the penitentiary, he
laid: "Well, I will think it over. Maybe
will tell you something and maybe I
won't." It Is thought that Bernstein will
rake a clean breast of the whole affair
today.
When Bernstein was searched after being
arrested the officers found in his possession
a portion of rubber syringe such as safe
blowera use to insert nitroglycerine. The
Kissing portion of the syringe was found
n the floor of the bank near the wrecked
ranlt. This and the fact that Bernstein
had a fresh cut on his hand, which had
bled freely and that there were blood
narks on the safe doors, are taken as
conclusive evidence that Bernstein was one
of the men who committed the attempted
robbery.
The men arrested In this city yester
Jay Insist that they will be able to show
that they spent Friday night at the Metro
politan hotel on Douglas street In Omaha.
Kt the Revere house they registered from
Boone, la., where they both claimed to
have worked as stationery engineers.
. When questioned, however, they were un
able to give the name of any firm or per
son :hey had worked for.
Sheriff Canning spent yesterday at Trey
nor, securing witnesses who will be called
before the grand Jury, probably today, to
testify against the men now under arrest
for the bank safe blowing. Several per
lons In and near Treynor, It Is said, saw
the men now under arrest In that vicinity
Friday.
If the suspects under arrest demand a
preliminary hearing at once they probably
will have It today. If not, the case will
go at once before the grand Jury, which
la now In session.

The announcement thaf the annual meet

ford explains that he was sick and unable

to appoint his successor. It was Im
pressed on Mr. Tedford that It wai a very

accepted.
