8 1HE ? OMAHA DAILY BEE : FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 25. 1887. CONFESSIONS OF A CROOK A Oonlrito Member of the "Profcsli" Bqneals on his Pals , SAFE BLOWING AND BURGLARY. lie Wanted to Die Stole An Overcoat Surrey or Smith and the Squatters OtUls nml 1C ml a Other Local. For ft long tlmo past it has been known to the police of this city that an organ ized ( rung of burglars , cracksmen and confidence men was at work in this city. The arrival of these crooks dates back from about the time of the opening of the exposition and fair last fall. The police have done their best to combat the invaders and in several cases have suc ceeded admirably. Hut through the shrewdness of the crooks and want of criminating evi dence , which it lias been impossible to obtain , the authorities have been unable to thoroughly break up the gang. That tills is true may readily bo seen by any one who rends the daily newspaper ac counts ol burglaries , safe-blowing jobs and other pieces of deviltry practiced. Duo of the gang has turned evidence ntralnst the others , and the Hii : : is pro- paved to give A cojtri.r.TE r.xi'osn of this band of crooks , thuir names ca reers and what they have aucoinpliHliud in Omaha and nclgiiboring cities , their haunts , dailv ' life , etc. , etc. The namc'of the man who has given up this important information will not bo disclosed hero , for fear of the consequences quences which would inevitably place his life in danger at the hands of his as- soeia'ea. It is only necessary to say that he is well known to the police and has repeatedly been arrested. A few weeks ago ho was arrested with two other men on a charge of highway rob- bory. Ho with ono of the mon was re leased a day or HO ago , on a technicality , while the third man was convicted and sent to the penitentiary for a term of years. The man who has made this im portant confession expresses himself as heartily sick of the treatment which he lias , since his stav in Omaha , received from liis associates , and expresses his in tention of reforming. Whether these intentions arc honest and will bo carried nut matters little here. It is the intention of this article to give space toTill Till : STAUTUNG HKVKLATIONS made bv this man , and which have never before teen made public. Ho was closeted v/ith a reporter for the Urn : for several hours yesterday , and the details of his exposure wore accurately transcribed to paper. In making tins confession his only stipulation was that his niimesoould not bo published. " 1'or , " he said , "if you do you give me away , 1 shall be jiUKonuF.n nv THESE ME.V. "They would have no mercy for mo. " "In the lirst place , " he continued , "I'll give you Hie names of the gang of crooks who have worked Omaha for six months past. The loaders of the gang are Johnny Murray , 1'atsov Kelly , better known"as 'Curly the Tough' and John Carroll , known as Torky. ' These men arc thorough all-round crooks , and a harder trio of men it would be dillicult to find in the country- They understand the art of burglary and 'cracking-cribs' thoroughly. They are known nil over the United States as expert 'box-men , ' or safe-blowers. Murray , the head man of the outlit , is about CO years of age. He was brought upas a pupil of 'Molhc' Matches , the NOTOItlOUS CHICAfiO IH'KOI.AIt , now doing time at Jolict , Ills. lie has also been an associate of such noted safe- blowers as 'Red' Lciry and Jemmy llogun , of whom you have doubtless hoard. He has done time in dill'crent prisons through the states. His last term was served , 1 think , at Canon City , Col orado. Torky' Carroll. Murray's fellow loader , is just : is bad a nharaclor. Last summer ho was released from the Canon City , Col. , penitentiary where ho was sent up for a 'live spot,1 ( n term of five yearn ) for blowing a safe. IJy good be haviorho was 'let down1 to three years. A few weeks ago ho was arrested' with another man tor 'pinching' ( robbing ) a hoosier near the depot. The other fel low was convicted ami scrtit to the peni tentiary. Yorky was 'turned up' ( set free ) through the intercession of ono of the wonum in that \V. \ C. T. U. place on Twelfth street , whom the mon know as the 'Uuokinghiun Kid. ' The 'Buck ingham Kid' had seen 'Yorky1 in the county juil and though ho was anything but prepossessing , she took a fancy to him and interested herself in his behalf until ho was sot free. Carroll and his immediate pals have to my certain know ledge III.OWN TWELVE IIOXES ( safes ) , in Iowa within the Just two years. Ho recently served six months in the Canon City 'pen1 anil has also 'done' tlmo for a safe-cracking job at Kingston , Ontario. He is only twenty-eight years of ago , but has received a thorough edu cation from NOrOKIOUH KASTHUNCUOOKS. "Patsy Kelly , the third man of the trio , who is at the head of the gang , is also a thorough 'box-man' ( safe-blower ) nml all-around crook. "Theso arc tiio leaders. Now I will civoyon the names of the other mon. They are : Johnny Mills , who received his education In bt. Louis , whore ho is known as the 'Kerry Patch Lad , ' hav ing often boon brought before the 'four Courts' for various otTonsosjMoycr , nick- rious sneak thief ; Kd. MoUonnld , who at OIIB time was a boll boy nt the MillardjTom Koaton , who was sent to Lincoln for u throo-suot ( term of three years ) for rob bing a man on Tenth street. Selh Kcurna and Tom Desnritt , who will do time at Lincoln for highway robbery , wore also in the gang. They all train in the sumo crowd and a bettor posted sot of mon , in their business , it would bo mighty hard to find , Most of them are under thirty years of ago. Pat Cluncy is the grandfather of the gang , Ho is sixty- live voars of ago , white-boarded and YOU- orable in appearance. He is n conli- donco man , and a mighty good ono , too , for his looks enable him to 'gull' a man where younger fellows would fail. Ho 1ms boon a crook for six ty years in fact , since ho was Hvo years of ago. Ho has loft Omaha temporarily , and ! hoar ho is doinga little 'side work' in St. Joo. Patsy Kelly , alias 'Curloy , the 'lough,1 is almost as slock a 'con- man' as Clancy , though ho is very much Younger. Ho and Clancy are responsible for most of the confidence games that have boon worked about here lately , " HOWTUKY CAM P. TO OMAHA. "How did you happen to como to Oiiwlmy" "Tho 'gang' decided to make Omaha their headquarters in September last. A man was sent here to look over the around , and after 'nosing around' ho re ported that this city and surround ing territory atlbrdod a splendid liold of operations. Murray and Carroll , thn men who wuroat that time working in Kansas City , came on at once , arriving hero on the Saturday that the exposition closed. The other men in the gang dropped in about the same time , by ones nml twos , bo as not to attract the atten tion of the police authorities , If you tuko the trouble to look oVer the lacs' of the daily papers , you will find that from that time on until the present , high way robberies , burglaries and safe blow ing jobs , conlidcnco games , have been of daily and nightly appearance. The papers blamed Marshal Cummings as re sponsible for the 1'KIU'KTHATIOX OF THIS DnVlLTKY. "That's ridiculous , I tell you. lo ) you suppose that Cummings and his thirty men could break up n gang like tins , with such mon as Murray , Carroll and Kelly at the head of it men whom the keenest detectives and the experienced police of larger cities have failed to sift down ? " "How do tlinso crooks regard Omaha as a ficlu for operations ? " "Well , to toll you the truth , this city is rcgardeil the best ono of its size In Amer ica , for crooks. Wo are all 'onto' that fact. The boys all have the police system of Omaha spotted as 'n. g. ' Thoj haven't nearly enough policemen on the force , not nearly enough detectives. Of course there are some good men on the force , but many of them arc regular 'hams. ' " "Do you know of any jobs done lately by the pang ? " "Yes. The City Steam Laundry safe was blown open by the Murray gang and about $150 in money obtained , Heal & Hebron's safe was also blown and sev eral hundred dollars taken. The Omaha mills' safe blown ( on .Ninth and Fantam ) was one of the last jobs. Wo got only a few odd dollars out of that because the proprietor had taken out most of the casli the Saturday night previous to the Sunday on which we did the job. Storz t& Her s safe blowing was also ono of the jobs of the gang. About $200 was real ized out of that. Some papers wore alro obtained which wore valueless to any of the gang. Some time ago the boys took a run ( town to Hastings and blew the safe of W. L. Edwards , a coal dealer down there. For three weeks his place was carefully watched and it was found that on the night of the 'job' it had 12,200 in it. The boys used powder ami by some mistake put in more than they ought to hayo done. The consequence was that the whole door of the sate was blown oil' and smashed through the front window , making a terrific noise. This alarmed the boys and they searched the safe has tily , getting only ? 150 where they ought to hayo had over $3,009. And those bur- lanes in David City , which caused such a sensation a few weeks ago they wore the work of the gang. The postolhuo was robbed of $000 in cash and about $500 in stamps. 1 think , altogether the boys made about ! f2 , 00 out of their work there. The stamps wore afterwards sold for about half their value. " "Where are the headquarters of the gang in this city ? " "At W. Hertz's restaurant and hotel at 210 South Tenth strcoet. Nearly all the ganc are located right at that place. " "Docs HorU know this ? " "I ilon't think that he docs. As long as the men pay their bills ho doesn't care who or what they aro. " "How long does the gang expect to work in Omaha ? " "Just as long as the men can find any thing to do. From present appearances they will stay here just as long as they please. " now TIM ; WOHK is DONE. "Tho specialty of the gang , " continued the man , in replying to a question of the reporter , "is safe blowing. Of course that is a dillicult and dangerous branch of burglary , but it is the most profitable. When the men make up their mind to blow the safe in n store , they watch the place for days and sometimes weeks , before the job'comes oil' . ' They cot a perfect diagram of the place , find out about the habits of the cashier , whether lie is in the habit of 'banking' every day , how much money he generally loaves in tiio safe at night , and whether there is a 'kipper1 about the place at night. By 'kipper' I mean a man who sleeps around a place at night , to guard it. When all these details are known then the job is ready to 'come off. ' Three men are generally detailed to do the work. Ono watches outside and the other two work inside. There are two wnysof blowing a safe by using powder or by using the drill , chisels and ham mer. The best workmen generally use the last method. \ \ hen powder is used a hole is drilled into the safe near the lock by means of a. powerful Morse drill , which will cut almost anything. W hen the hole is drilled deep enough , a little powder is put in with a blowpipe , and then it is touched off. This cither blows the safe door oil' the hinges , or better still , COMPLETELY 1IUINS THE LOOK. "Tho door is then easily opened. When a drill , punch , chisel and hammer aroused used , tiio hole is cut into the lock by means ot drills and then by means of the proper tools , the lock is cracked to pieces and drops down. This method is more ditlieult , but is not so noisy or bungling as the powder plan. " "How do these men spend their money ? " "Thoy make money easy enough , and they spend it jus > t as rapidly. It all goes for FAST WOMEN AND GAMBU.VG , "to say nothing of drinking. Every night these fellows hold carousals in the dif ferent houses of ill-llunio on Ninth , Tenth streets and Capitol avenue , occa sionally spending hundreds of dollars in ono night. Some of them are 'dead anxious' to spend their evening in gam bling houses , bucking faro. Then they drink expensive wines land whiskies , and that costs money. The consequence a that they never save anything , and while they may have hundreds of dollars one week , they are liable to have nothing the next. Johnny Murray , the prince of the gang , generally cots the lion's bhiiro , and yet the moat money I over sftw him have at ono time was $700 , " Hero the interview closed. The fellow repeated his earnest desire that his name bo withheld until ho was far away from Omaha and safe from the vengeance of his fellow-crooks. Ho reiterated his be lief that his former pals , after tlto dis closures lie had made , would not hesitate to SHOOT HIM POV/.V IK COI.T1 IU.OOD. Ho intends to leave Omaha at once , witli the determination of.reforming. "Tho police have been watching mo " since I was released , " ho declared , ' . I am liable to bo arrested any minute for a suspicioua character. I've had enough of your jail hero and so 1 slinll bid Omaha and Nebraska good-byo. " Krrp it Borneo t lie People.

" Without paying any attention to this question the stranger took a piece of paper and scribbled a few words on it. u "Send mv body to this place as soon as yo hear of my death , " ho said to the clerk , solemnly. . So far as the writing could bo de ciphered , the inscription on ono sldo was as follows : "My right name is Hob Hack- ctt.

"That item about the clerk at the post- oflico delivery window giving Eek , the bicycle rider , the letter th.it bore the simple inscription , 'To the Greatest Man on earth'was a pretty good one , " said a sporting man to a reporter yester day , "but there is a funny incident back of it. The day that Eck and his hand some trainer and backer , Steve Carlisle , arrived in town , they went to the post- otlico. Eck , in his humorously pompous way , approached the young lady at the general delivery window , ami asked if there was any mail there for the greatest man in the world. The young lauy at the window cast an eye to a box near at hand and sweetly replied , 'No , Mr. Prince lias just been after his mail. ' Thu shock was too much for Eck , and ho would have fainted had not Carlisle como to the res cue. That Eck is a great man.

To the Editor of the DEE : It occurs to mo that something should bo said to a few deluded people who are building "squatter" houses along and in the old abandoned river bed north of the recent cut-ofl' . If they are seeking to gain possession of lands for which they hold questionable title , or tax liens , it is all right , but if they are making a settlement with a view to preempt or otherwise to secure land from the government , they are sadly off their base. The title to this abandoned river bed is vested in the owners of the fractional lots bordering upon it. The purchaser of each ono of these lots from the govern ment secured in addition thereto the un questionable right to the thread or center of the stream and no more , no less , f A large stream llko the Missouri river is surveyed or "meandered" for two very important purposes First , to se cure a true record of its location m the world , and second , to determine the area of the available land in the fractional lots that border on its margin. These meander lines are run by the government surveyors when sectionizlnic the townships through which the etrcam runs'or which border on its clian del , and a careful record of the survey is preserved. These meander lines mark the borders of the legal pr ofllclal fiver and determine the location or boundary lirics of. states or counties' when declared ' ' . . < "Vv such , as "thcnco txlonjc the channel of said stream , old , , otc. " The river may , and often docs , by wash ing awaj its bnnk traverse across these lines and beyond , opening an entirely now channel a long way inland. If it was a navigable stream oofore it left its official bed , it Ji a navigable stream in the now ono. THe abandoned river bed is certainly not navigable. It has carried with it the right df navigation over pri vate property , but not its re corded location , nor the state or county boundary , nor the lines defining the property of individuals. Those are fixed in the world by a base line and a meridian and do not change , and may bo readily rcdellncdif lost sight of. Like a public highway or road , when this stream abandons its surveyed location the adjacent property meets in its center , or midway between the right and left bank meander lines. This abandoned river bed is nart of the adjacent fractional lots and is owned in the same title. Uuelo Sum has no land In this vicinity that ho can dispose of the second tlmo. Guo. SMITH. A Ilnro Cliunco , During the latter part of January and the first part of February wo sold 50 aero lots in Solomon's addition. This cleans them all up and Mr. Solomon now wishes to sell his home , consisting of 00 acres of land , the very lincst part of the whole tract , for $00,000 , including his two-story brick resilience and barns. The improve ments cost over $30,000. , This is n bar gain. A man can easily get $75,000 to $100,000 out of the land by platting into lots anil have all the improvements and a beautiful plat of ground loft.

Purchasers should bear this in mind and not buy lots far away from the center of business , just because tlioy are cheap.

Omaha will soon bo up to Wichita and some other towns one-third its size in re gard to real estate prices. Yesterday the lot nearly opposite the Merchants hotel on Faruam was sold for $7o,000. This is about the last lot available for building purposes between Thirtcecnth and Six teenth streets that will likely bo for sale for the next few years as nearly all others have buildings upon them too valuable to destroy. Two different parties claim to bo the buyers. Hush \ : Solby , the agents , gave u Kansas City party the re fusal of the property until Tuesday even ing , and were also negotiating with a Mr. Cary , of Omaha , wiiom they hud told could have the property after 5 o'clock if no word was received from the Kansas City man. Promptly at 5 p. m. Mr. Cury handed Hush & JSolby a check for $1,000 to bind the bargain and in loss than ten minutes a Western Union boy handed them a message also accepting the oiler. The question will likely have to be set tled as to whether "Tuesday evening" ended at 5 o'clock. Absolutel Thispowiier nevervarici.
