"81oppy" Smith la atlll standing pat at
tha city Jail and refund - to . Incriminate
himself In any1 of the Crimea already de
tailed In the confessions of Trattner, Case,
Madison and Dor an, the youthful outlaws
who planned the robbery of the car barn
and were bound over to the district court
Thursday morning. Smith was to have
had his preliminary trial In police court
this morning, but owing to pressing busi
ness of Assistant County Attorney Mag
uey in the district court, Smith will have
a trial In police court Saturday morning.
Smith Is believed by the authorities to
have been In the holdup of, Mike Cssple
wskt's saloon at Twenty-fourth and Ban
croft streets, and William F. HufTsky's
drug store In South Omaha, both places
being held up on the evening of October
12. Smith says he returned to Omaha from
the Iowa state penitentiary September !,
having been released' on the day before.
As yet Smith has no counsel.. He says he
Is entirely without funds. Roy Case is
the only one of the five who has a lawyer.
The attorney was secured by his wife,
who Is sticking by her hUBband.
Talking ot his pust life Smith said:
"I have lived in 'Omaha twenty years
with the exception of the five years I have
Just served at the Iowa penitentiary.' My
father was a well digger .here years ago
and died out In Colorado, -My mother and
the other merabera of the family have left
the city. I do not know where they are. . I
was married here. ears sgo and my wife se
cured a divorce while I was la the peniten
tiary. She remarried and Uvea In Omaha.
Mer name now Is, Van Buren. I bad callel
to see her seversl times since I came
back." .
Five years sgo Smith wss sentenced ten
years In the Iowa penitentiary for shooting
a Northwestern brakeman who was trying
to put Smith off a freight train between
Des Moines and Ames. While working
on a circular saw in the penitentiary some
time ago Smith's right arm was badly In
jured by the saw and his sentence was re
duced to five years. His arm Is yet par
tially lame.
Smith Agala Saepeeted. ' ,
It Is now thought by the authorities that
Smith was Implicated with Doran in (he
robbery of Alfred Keller's saloon at 8S03
North Sixteenth street at 10 : p. m. of the
6th Instant Keller was locked in a room
and (27 and a gold watch taken.
Mike Csaplewskl of Twenty-fourth and
Bancroft, whose saloon ' was robbed, has
called at tha station and partially Identified
Smith, Trattner and Poran as ths three
men who entered his place on the evening
of October 12. so Chief of Police Donahue
saya " " ' i
Joe Trattner, the smallest of ths Ave
young men, apparently takes an abnormal
pleasure In relating some of the escapades
of himself snd pals. As one of the city
Jail attaches put it, "He likes it better than
he does to eat his meals."
One of Trattner's stories Is In connection
with the picnic holdup in Rlvervlew park
on the evening of July 1. On the day fol
lowing detectives policed the park with the
hope of gaining some clue.
Trattner says he and Doran saw the
detectives during the day, and In the even
ing the boys laid In ambush for three
hours, waiting for the detectives to return,
when they intended to fire several shots
over the heads of the "plain cjothes men,"
Just to see whether they were game or
easily frightened. This is one of the
remlnlsoenoes Trsttner tells with a smile
as he thinks of the fun they expected to
have with the officers.. ,.
The police department yesterday wss busy
measuring and photographing Trattner.

William Toung, colored, arrested yester
day by Sergeant Dempsey and Officer
Shepherd on the charge of daylight bieak
Ing and entering, tried to spring something
new on the Omaha po'Jce when he made
an effort to sink his identity In a pile of
coal In the yard of C. B. Havens at Fif
teenth and California streets. After an
exciting chase of half a mile Young scaled
the coal yard fence at one bound and
sought refuge in a pilsOof Talack diamonds,
thinking his color would mingle effectively
with the fuel and cause his pursuers to
continue on through the yard and give him
a chance to escape. But Toung reckoned
without his host
When C. P. Boyer, a co:ored laborer liv
ing at 1412 Davenport street, returned home
for his dinner, he says he found Young In
the house with a large basket packed with
Boyer's effects and ready to take his leave
with the plunder. Entrance was gained
by forcing a door, It is said,
In response to a hurry call from the
Windsor stables the patrol wagon with
Sergeant Dempsey and Officer Shepherd
responded, arriving on the scene In time
to take up tha rha that nv hoH
started. The sergeant saw a man with j
m nam coai running Ilka a deer toward
the coal yard and he followed. The man
with the light hat was Boyer. Officer
Shepherd pressed a grocery wsgon Into
commission and took another tack, while
Driver Wilson on the Datrol made a flanlr
movement Toung, Boyer and the ser
geant reached the coal yard almost as
one man, Young Jumping the fence Just In
time to hide In the cost.
The plunder, which hsd been packed in
a large basket, consisted of two suit
clothea and numerous articles of smaller
-ven sucn trivial a thing as a boa
of matches was packed.
Speaking of the affair at the station.
Boyer said:
"Ah was wuklng at ds tims on Eigh

LITTLE IS COMING HOME
Man with Moaey in the Court Will
Remaia la Closer Tonch
with It.
The offk'ers and rettnus of ths county
court are getting ready to receive George
Little. He is expected to return fresh from
his trip to San Francisco. The money wss
forwarded Thursday and George Is ex
pected as a return on the investment.
Mr. Little bears somewhat the same rela
tion to the county court as did Iolanthe
to the lord chancellor. That la, he Is de
pendant on the court because the court
has charg of his estate.
Mr- Little lives In McArdle. but his
people on the other side of the Atlsntto
did not hold that against him and some
one left him a small fortune. Louis Nesss
wss appointed a guardian to help receive
the funda Up to the present 11,600 has
been placed by George and he has a special
chair In tho county , court offices where he
sits and' waits for other remittances. On
or about October 7 he decided he would
go to San Francisco to see how the
wealthy of that metropolis conducted them
selves. ' The court finally consented and
fitted him out with a ticket and J100. The
second day sfter his arrival his local head
quarters received a telegram fitted out with
special delivery stamps and other intensi
fies. Mr. Little wanted more money in
order to make a proper r.ppearance among
the western "toffs." ' A day or two later
came the Information from a bank he had
negotiated another $100 there. Thursday
came a letter saying the psce was too
swift and Mr. Little wanted to come back
where he could watch the Installments on
his estate mature. .

ance wss recorded on the seismograph In

POLITICS STOPS THE COURTS
Election Matters Consume Tim oi
Many Attorneys and Judges
Get Lay Off. '
The distrlot and county courts have been
running very light since the beginning ol
the October term. The Ak-8ar-Ben festivl-
ties caused a lack of Interest during ths
first week, and lnce that time the attorneys
largely have been too much oocupled witn
politics to wish their cases to come to trial.
For this iMion whenever possible bearings
have been set forward and the Jury has had
an easy time. In the scavenger Jaw cases
the defendunts have been slow to appear.
