Two Suspects
With “Blue Car”
Now in Custody
tit. Joseph Authorities Arrest
Pair Alleged to Have Par
ticipated in Dundee
Holdup. 's
Pete Nelson, former proprietor of
Raddle Creek Tavern, and Arthur
Stout, sought by police for more than
a week in connection with the
"blue car” bandit raids, were
9
raptured yesterday morning in a St.
Joseph,_ Mo., rooming house, accord
ing to telegraphic advice to Omaha
police.
The capture was effected on infor
mation furnished St. Joseph police by
Police Capt. Jack Pszanowski.
Pszanowski gleaned his information
from Roy Smith, held in default ef
$20,000 bond, and dovetailed it with
data obtained from a post card found
in the Nelson home.
Arthur Stout formerly was a teach
er at the American Business follege,
1912 Farnam street. He is married
and has a child in high school. Em
ployes at the college identified a
piece of cloth torn from the pocket of
one of the bandits in the scuffle with
Nels Anderson at Seventy-second an l
Hodge streets following the holdup as
being part of a suit worn by Stout.
Motorcycle Officer pieghorn was
suspended for five days for losing t$*e
cloth and a piece of jewelry which
was attached to it. Later he found
the piece of cloth.
"I would rather have lost two
months’ pay than lose that piece of
cloth,” said Cleghorn.
St. Joseph police stated that the
two men when arrested had in their
possession an automobile stolen froth
Joe Wagner of Kansas City. It was
identified as *the car used In the
Omaha holdup.
Stout was in Omaha police court
'.n 1919, when he was brought back
from Springfield, 111., on a charge of
auto theft.
Detectives Trapp and Munch re
cently went on Stout's bond in order
to enable him to get a job. They said
at that time they believed him to be
honest.
