O'Connor Conviction Leaves Three
Alleged Bobbers Yet to Be
Taken Before Court.
With the verdict of guilty pro
nounced by a Jury in the case of
Thomas Patrick O'Connor Friday, at
Lincoln. County Attorney Tdwle of
Lancaster "county .will turn his at
tention to Howard "Pop" Lee, who
is to be tried on October 19 on
charges of being one of the Lincoln
National bank robbers. Lee, Britt
and Winkler are now held at the
penitentiary.
Lee was one of the quartet arrest
ed in East St. Louis last May at the
same time that O'Connor and Britt
were taken by Sgt. Roy Steffens of
Chicago. Hal Roberts of the Illinois
state police and a number of other
officers. Winkler was arrested at St.
Joseph, Mich.
All of the men held on charges
of robbing the bank on Sept. 17,
1930, have maintained they were
not in Lincoln on the day of the
robbery. Lee, it i3 expected, will
claim an alibi in defense as did
O'Connor. All four pleaded not
guilty when arraigned in district
court some time ago. Their bonds
were fixed at $100,000 each. So far
none has been able to furnish bond.
It had been rumored that Winkler
might furnish bond but he failed to
do so. .
The alleged bank robbers will be
tried singly. Some time ago Towle

announced that he hoped to try them
all before the first of the year. Wink
ler was the last of the quartet
brough to Lincoln a few weeks ago,
It is expected that Attorney Galla
gher will file a motion for a new
trfal in the O'Connor case within the
next day or so. It is probable that
if this motion is overrulled, O'Con
nor will be brought in immediately
to be sentenced.
It was maintained by the state
during the O'Connor trial-that the
man described by a number of wit
neeses called by the defense, as be
ing a larger man than O'Connor was
"Pop" Lee. Lee was brought back
to Lincoln from Chicago after wIT
n esses had been taken there to view
him.

the cases were charged against the
young men by the chairmen of the

the three men appeared, heard the
plea of guilty and deferred the sen
