HAVE NUMBER ON
ONE OF THE YEGGS
One of Three Bandits Who Attempt-
ea u) aod -Denver viussi-ag
Bank is Known,
From Saturday's Dally.
One of three bank bandits who
made an unsuccessful raid on the
Beaver Crossing state bank Thursday
afternoon, is known. There is no
guess work about it. The statement
is official and positive. Officers are
not ready to tell what they know or
why they know it. State Sheriff Tom
Carroll announced at. .noon Friday
that there is nothing new. This an
nouncement, however, does not fit in
the unusual activities on the part of
state officials and local officials in
several "hot" communities.
Deputy state sheriffs in company
with Officers Heller and Fracl of the
Omaha police department, made a
hurried trip from Lincoln at noon.
Their destination was Greenwood. A
Ford car was deserted near there
Wednesday night and an Essex tour
ing car, believed to have been used
by the bandits, stolen from the ga
rage of H. B. Schroeder. farmer liv
ing 3 miles southeast of Green
wood. A man appeared on the scene
Friday morning to claim the Ford.
He was detained at the request of the
states sheriff until the official party
arrived.
The coming to Lincoln of Omaha
officers, the apparent disinclination
to give weight to rumors from vari
ous sections and the general attitude
about headquarters indicates that
some important lead is being fol
lowed. The several posses that were
out of Lincoln late Thursday had re
turned. This gave further indication
that a dragnet may be landed soon
and that possibly it will not be
empty. There was, however, some
parties out from other points Friday.
These were headed by Sheriff Jerry
Dailey of Wahoo, Sheriff Condt of
Fremont and Sheriff Quinton of Cass.
A farmer living near McCool Junc
tion reported to headquarters that at
2:45 p. m. Thursday, about 45 min
utes after the attempted robbery,
three men in an Essex were seen rac
ing south toward Fairmont. Shortly
after 3 o'clock men answering the
description were seen racing east
from Dorchester. Members of a posse
southeast of Crete believe they miss
ed the bandits by a narrow margin
They saw fresh tracks indicating
that a car going at a terrific clip had
made a turn and in so doing had
skidded dangerously. They followed
the tracks toward Syhacuse and
reached tho conclusion that the ban
dits were attempting to strike the
highway that would take them to
Omaha over a route not entering
Lincoln.
It is believed probable that the
bandits were out of Omaha and that
they were attempting to reach cover
in the city. It is considered likely
that they have succeeded In finding
a temporary cover.
VISITING IN THE CITY
Miss Edith Mays of Wahoo is in
the city a guest at the home of Rev.
and Mrs. F. E. Pfoutz. Mis3 Mays
is a

talented musician both in voice
