A NERVY THIEF.
He Snatched a Gentleman's
Pocket-Book ,
And Disappeared , But waa
Finally Arrested.
A daring robbery was committed in
a passenger coach of the express from
the west , while at the Union
Pacific depot yesterday after
noon. In ono of the Bleeping cars
was Mr. Finch Hattman , a wealthy
cattle dealer , who resides nt North
Platto. Mr. Hattman recently nr-
rived in this country from Europe and
having invested largely in cattle was
on his way back to that country for a
visit during the remainder of the season -
son , Between this city and
North Platte ho fell into conversation
with n fellow passenger , who gnvo his
name as DtifTy and represented him
self to bo an extensive fur dealer.
During the conversation another rjen-
tloman approached whom the pre
tended fur dealer recognized as an old
friend and Introduced to Mr. Halt-
man as nn agent of the American Un
ion express company. Among other
documents which the stranger dis
played conspicuously was a letter of
endorsement stating that ho had pre
viously boon in the employ of
the Union Pacific railroad
company. and.Bignod "C. 0. Nichols ,
division superintendent1 ' nnd en
dorsed by "J. T. Clark , .general
superintendent. " As , the , .initials of
Mr. Nichols are P. J. , instead of 0.
C. , anU as both names are signed in
the same hand writing , it is thought
that the letter is n forgery , but of this
Mr. Hiittman had no suspicions at the
time. While the train Was standing in
the depot in this city , the stranger
who had bcon out upon the platform ,
entered the car in haste and asked
Mr. Hattman to cash a check for him
as ho wanted to use some money and
had no cash with him. Mr. Hattman
Hays ho told him he had not a sufli-
ciont amount of money to cash the
chock , but as the fellow looked rather
incredulous ho took from his pocket
his purse for the purpose of showing
him that ho had only $100 in cash. As
ho did so the follow snatched the
purse , made a rush for the door
and started to escape. Mr. Hattman
shouted "Stop thief , " and the crowd
on the platform took up the cry and
started in largo numbers in pursuit of
the follow , who ran like a deer out of
the depot to Tenth street , across the
tracks , turning past down a side track
among some freight cars to the plat
form of the freight depot , and then
diagonally across to Ninth street and
down an alloy toward the river.
Marshal | | Angoll , oflicer Donahue ,
and Jailer McOluro wcro nt the time
passing up Tenth street in u car and
seeing the chase , jumped out and
joined in the pursuit. 1'ho follow was
overtaken on Eighth between. Eleven-
worth and Jones streets. Jailor Me-
Cluro put his nippers on him and led
him to the jail. Upon examination
it was found that the fellow had in his
pantaloon's pocket n dollar and sixty
cents , and , tucked down 'the back
of his neck under his shirt , a
five dollar bill. It is stated that a
lady passenger in the car ol.iims that
aho saw him throw the purse out of
tlio car window as ho ran through in
making his escape , ami _ it is thought
his accomplice was outside to receive
it when thrown to him.
Later in tl\o \ evening Oflicor Khif-
lin , who was nt the depot in citizens'
dross looking for the accomplice , saw
a man who was evidently looking and
waiting for some ono , walking
about the depot , and as ho
aniwered the description given by
Mr. Huttman of the fellow introduced
to .him . as the express agent , the
otllcer arrested him nnd took him to
jail also. Both ot them are well
dressed , slick appearing fellows , but
have the tronenu1 niipoaranco of being
hard cases. Their trial will take
place in the police court this forenoon ,
Mr. Huttman having stopped in thu
city for the purpose of appearing
against them ,
