FIVE MIKES FILE PETITIONS
Alleged Victim of Maybray Gang1
Want Money Back.
FORTY-THREE THOUSAND ASKED
Money Lost on Horse and! foot Races
nd Wrestling Matches Member
of Seasatlonal Allegations
Made.
The petitions In five of the twenty-three
suits started by alleged victims of the
J. C. Maybray gang or "big store"
swindlers were filed yesterday In the dis
trict court by Wadsworth & Crawford, at
torneys for the "Mikes." As had been
anticipated the petitions contain allegations
decidedly sensational In character against
some of the persons made defendants In
these actlona. The original notices of suit
in these cases were filed several weeks ago.
The "Mikes" who appear as plaintiffs in
the petitions filed yesterday with the
amounts which they seek to recover are aa
follows;
Oeorge S. Bedford of Oreeley, Colo., lost
I12.2M on a horse race, October 1. 10S, near
Manawa. Alleged steerer, Herbert Coon.
W. H. Bedford of Bolckow, Mo., lost
$,000 on a home race, August 21, 1908, near
Iowa School for the Deaf. Alleged steerer,
W. J. Connors.
J. C. Bowman of Sllverton, Colo., 112,700
on a horse race, June , 1908, near Manawa.
Alleged steerer, B. B. Jacobs.
John Hermelbrecht of Bancroft, Neb.,
lost 26,000 on a horse race, April 26, 1908,
near Manawa. Alleged steerer, Ed Ellis
and Frank Scott.
Thomas Cale of Fond du Lac, Wis., lost
28,000 on a wrestling match, July 23, K08.
Just outside the city limits. Alleged steerer,
Jack Carkeek.
Except for the alleged "steerer" the de
fendants named In each of the fire petitions
are the aame and are as follows: Benjamin
Marks, alias "No. 76." First National bank
of Council Bluffs: Ernest E. Hart (Incor
porated), John J. Bplndler, Jamm C. May
bray, alias J. C. Oordon, alias "No. 8,
alias "B." alias J. T. Barnes, alias B. S.
Ansel; Frank O. Scott, alias Frank Max
well, alias Oeorge Wilson.
During the course of the lengthy peti
tion In each case It Is alleged that the
Millionaire club or the Club of Pittsburg
Millionaires, which had Its headquarters at
Council Bluffs during the greater part of
1908 was a successor to the once famous
or more correctly speaking notorious
Athletic club of Webb City, Mo.
Benjamin Marks of Council Bluffs, James
C. Maybray, Monte McCall, Ed Ellis, Isailor
J. Warner, F. M. Johnson, R. B. Herri
man. Frank O. Scott and A. B. Craft are
alleged to Yave been the "leading con
spirators and managers of said club or
organisation of conspirators."
Allegations In Complaint.
The main allegations In each of the fivo
petitions are the same, the only variation
being when the details of the alleged con
spiracy by which the plaintiff was buncoed
out of his money are given. The general
scheme by which the victim was "Miked"
was substantially the same, although
there were some slight variations to suit
the particular case. The result In each cane
was, however, the same, the victim and
his money were separated.
Besides alleging that E. E. Hart rented
a strong box or safety deposit box In his
private bank to J. C. Maybray, R. B.
Herrlman and Monte McCall. his cashier
is alleged to have rented a building to the
defendants and consptrators In which the
boxing and wrestling matches were held.
Regarding tha alleged connection of vhe
First National bank and Its officers with
the "conspirators" It Is alleged that whan
the "Mike" went to the bank to deposit
the money given him by the secretary of
the Millionaires club or to draw his own
money on drafts or checks that one or
more of the defendanta always went with
him "or were hanging close around In said
bank and In sight of the cashier keeplm?
watch whether or not this plaintiff was
drawing the money from the bank In ac
cordance with Instructions of the defend
ants." n .
Benjamin Marks Is alleged to have been
"particularly fitted to discharge the duties
of 'fixer' by reason of his long continued
political Influence In the community." It
is alleged that "he used this Influence to
keep the oflcers of the law from arresting
or Interfering with these conspirators or
exposing their nefarious and unlawful business."

THIEVES
BUSY
REASON
FOR
Residence, Two Clunr Stores and
Barn Robbed.
Timely warning by neighbors caused the
arrest of a robber yesterday morning at the
realdence of Emll Leffert, the Broadway
Jeweler, 618 Ninth avenue. The robber, who
gave the name of Silas Dillon and claimed
to be from Cheyenne, Wyo., waa captured
In the cellar while attempting to escape
through a window underneath the perch.
He Is a young man and a stranger to the
police.
Dillon and two other men were notice 1
about 10 o'clock by the neighbors loitering
In the vicinity of the Leffert residence.
After a brief consultation the three men
separated, one going to the corner of Sixth
street and the other to the corner of
Seventh street, apparently to keep watch
while the third man, who was later ar
rested, went towards the house.
The third man was seen to break the
glass In a side door and reaching Inside
draw back the bolt and enter. The neigh
bors who witnessed this telephoned Mr,
Leffert at his place of business and he
In turn notified the police. Mr. Leffert,
wtth one of his clerks, at once started for
his home, which he reached about the same
time that Detective T. B. Richardson did.
Calling some men working at the Great
Western freight depot, they surrounded the
house. The burglar tried several windows
seeking to escape, but seeing that the house
was surrounded, fled to the cellar, where
he was corralled by Officer Richardson In
the act of trying to climb out through a
window under the porch.
When searched at police headquarters
the young man had nothing on him, but
Mr. Leffert found trinkets and silverware
scattered about the house where he had
dropped them after he saw the house was
surrounded. The other two men who were
keeping guard made their escape.
One of the employes at the cigar and
candy store conducted by Greeks at 636
West Broadway left the key In the front
door after locking up at a late hour Fri
day night and a thief took advantage of
It. When the place was opened up yes
terday to left over night In the cash regis
ter was missing, as were fifteen boxes of
cigars valued at $00.
Burglars broke Into the saloon of John
Brennan at 803 South Main street Friday
nlrfht and stole eight boxes of cigars and
11 In small change from the cash register.
They effected an entrance by cutting out a
Council Bluffs
panel In the rear door which opens Into
the pool room.
Frank. Kessier. living at Twelfth street
and Ninth avenue, reported to the police
yesterday that his barn had been broken
Into during the night nnd a set of harness
valued at $10 stolen.
Allraed Boot I easier Honnd Over.
John Booten. a former resident of Coun
cil Bluffs, who was arrested recently at
Henderson. Ia.. by government officers
on a charge of bootlegging, had a prelimin
ary hearing yesterday afternoon before
United States Commissioner N. A. Craw
ford, as a result of which he was bound
over to await the action of the federal
grand Jury, which will meet here In Sep
tember. His bond was placed at $200 which
he furnished.
Ilooten's defenso was that he did not
retail any liquor, but that he had pur
chased It from a firm In Council Bluffs for
a "social club" of which he was a member,
each member chipping In his share.
J. L. Fugato. II. W. Howard and James
Douglas, witnesses for the defendant, testi
fied to having chipped In for their share
of the liquor. Commissioner Crawford said
that from their evidence the three wit
nesses had undoubtedly violated the law
and suggested to E. E. Fltzslmmons, the
deputy collector of Internal revenue, that
he file charges against them. W. W.
Dunne, special guoger from Peoria, 111.,
who Is looking after the Booten case,
stated that he would probably file these
Informations later. J. F. Reed, revenue
agent from Omaha, was also present at the
hearing on behalf of the department.

county court house and an aggregation
gathered together from the police depart
ment and other city departments resulted
in a victory for County Recorder Barg
hausen's braves by a score of 8 to 6.
The game up to the end of the seventh
inning was a close one, each side having
scored four runs. After the seventh In
ning Street Commissioner Tim Flood and
City Physician Tubhs went to sleep on
bases and are charged with losing the
game for their side. George S. Wright,
the "Adonis" of the Pottawattamie county
bar, was umpire and his decisions went
without protest, although at one time
County Attorney Hess threatened to file
an injunction against him.
There was a very fair attendance and
It is expected that the Associated Chari

The First Fall Shipments of Dress Goods and Silks are here, and bow exquisite they are. Beau
tiful as Bilks always are, these seem more lovely than any we ever had and It Is only natural, for why
should not the weavers Improve each year and turn out more beautiful goods.
And Such Values The orders tor silks and dress goods were placed right when the makers did
not know whether the tariff would go up or down, and we certainly struck the most remarkable val
ues It has been our good fortune to produce.
49 for & inch Batistes, usually selling at 65c and 7 Bo.
49 for 36 inch all wool Panama, regular 65c and 76c values.

IlKNOALIXE SILKS The wide wale Bengallne Willi be the great popular silk idol of the coming
fall and winter, especially for Coats and Suits. The Popular shades $1.0O tr $1-25 Bengallnes.
TAFFETA SILKS We ask the ladles of Council Bluffs and vicinity to call and see with their
own eyes our values in Black Taffeta Silks, 36 Inches wide at $1.00 yard. Let no one mis

We've a host of other special values to show you In new fall Dress Goods and Silks and earnestly

No store in America offers better values than Hunter's Bounds bombastic, perhaps, but we
back the assertion with the goods and ask only an opportunity of proving to you by your own In
