THIS HOLDUP MAN WENT FREE
Judge Manger, Who Will Sentence
Quintet. Tells of Another Case.
STOPPED TRAIN JUST FOR RIDE
YoBth Meclnn from Wyoming Prison
rrly Arqejlrrit Another T"em
Thla Time la Penitentiary
nt Leavenworth.
In contrast to the fate of the five train
bandits to be returned Tuesday Is the case
of another hold-up man. Judge W. H.
Munger, who will sentence the convicted
quintet, himself tells of the time he ex
ercised clemency,
"It will do no good to mention the
young man's name," sajd Judge Munger,
"but there were some Interesting features
about the case. The young man had been
Indicted in the Wyoming courts for cattle
ruxtllng and Was sentenced to five years
In the penitentiary. He said that he would
never go to the penitentiary, and did suc
teed In making his escape from Jail. He
t ame direct to Nebraska, and being some
what In a hurry and having no funds, he
conceived the idea of holding up a train
out somewhere between Cheyenne and
Holdrege, not for robbery, but for a ride.
He stopped the train and getting aboard
rode for about fifteen miles and then com
manded the engineer to stop the train
again so that he might get off. The en
gineer did so, and the young fellow dis
appeared. Train Carried Mntla.
"It so happened that the train was carry
ing the United States malls and so the
young fellow was Indicted here In Omaha
by the federal grand"jury for obstructing
the mail.. There was no attempt at rob
bery of the malls nor Interference with
them, and so he was merely indicted for
obstructing or interfering with the mails,
which meant a sentence of five years as
the minimum. But before the United States
authorities could catch him he was recap
tured by the Wyoming authorities and sent
io the Wyoming penitentiary to serve his
five years.
"He was a model prisoner and gained
the usual good time, and when he was re
leased there was a federal warrant waiting
for him. A deputy brought him to Omaha
to answer to the federal Indictment found
against him.
"The spirit was all out of hlra from his
prison life Wyoming, and he wished to
enter a plea of guilty. I did not know
that ? desired to accept the plea and I
sent fur ?. S. Hall, not to defend him, but
to have a talk with the young man.
"Mr. Hall had a long talk with the
young fellow In the district attorney's
office, together with the district attorney,
who was Mr. Summers. He told his story
and showed a letter from the Wyoming
district attorney who prosecuted him com
mending him to the mercy of the federal
court, and also very good letters from the
prison officials of Wyoming giving him
the character ot a model prisoner. He
had another letter from a prominent ranch
or cattleman of Wyoming who offered th
boy a good Job when he got out of prison,
and the offer still held good.
Another Term A Life of Crime.
"I could see no good in sending that boy
to prison again. His offense was not a
serious one against the United States. He
was not seeking to rob the train, In fact, I
question whether he knew that there was
mail on the train. In any event ha had
suffered enough. Here was a chance to
save a boy. He was offered a good Job.
But If he was again sent to prison, Vfter
serving his time he would probably never
have another chance to get respectable
work, and he would have to continue In
crime for a livelihood.
"Well, the upshot of it was that I de
cided to let the boy go on his own recog
nizance. "He was without money, and Mr. Hall
loaned him S25 to return to Wyoming.
In a few months he returned the loan to
Mr. Hall. We heard from him occasionally
and ho was making good right along.
"About three years afterwards the
United States Marshal of Wyoming was In
Omaha with a friend from that state, and
incidentally the two visited the federal
building and called upon Marshall Mat
thews. I happened into the marshal's
office and met the Wyoming men and we
go: to talking about this boy. I wondered
what had become ot him.
Made Good f Gnraa, Yral
"The stranger said: '1 can tell you all
about hlni. I am the man that gave him
the job. Made good? He certainly has.
1 have so much faith and confidence In
him that 1- have Just put him In business
in partnership with my son.' "
"Well, that settled the case. 1 was fx
ti finely lnJ of it and 1 do not think that
anyone was more pleased than Dick Hall.
"Oh, yes, the case has been dismissed
against him long ago."
Surrendered.
Mr. Sei angles looked at the bill as a
mere matter of form, for he had seen It
many times before.
"I'm sorry," he said, "but It Isn't con
venient for me Just now to say, you are
not the young man that usually comes, are
you?"
"No,-I'm a new one."
"What's your name?"
"My name," said the caller, stepping In
side, sitting down In a rocking chair and
eyeing him sharply, "is Staylong."
There was a momant'a pause.
Then Mr. Scraggles put 'his hand in his
poi ket. slowly drew forth his purse.
opened It and reluctantly counted out
$7.ii0.
You may cnange your name now, youu;

Aldrich Says
Credit is as
Good as Cash
Senator Discusses Financing of Ex
port Trade in His Minneapolis
Speech.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 13 Senator Aid
rich Friday was the principal guest at a
noonday luncheon and at an evening dinner.
both given under the auspices ot the bank
ers' organisation and both taking place at
the Minneapolis club.
At the midday meal the subject of con
sideration was the necessity for Increased
turns of money with which to handle the
grain crops of the northwest. Senator Aid
rich vai told that from $30,000,000 to $40,000,-'
000 was sent west annually from Mlnno
apolls and St. Paul drrlng the crop moving
period and that ordinarily this money did
not return until next yr er.
The fact was brought out that after the
paric of 1907 thro was especial difficulty
In getting the money returned. Dr. Decker,
who presided, stated that It was withheld
until the bankers of Minneapolis and St.
Paul made an appeal to tnelr brethren of
Chicago to'stand bHnd them in securing
a return the next year of the money to
the various localities.
This assurance received, the cash came
poijrlng In In the usual volume.
"Another evidence," remarked Mr. Aid
rich, "that credit Is as good as cash."
It. was brought out that one of the Ereal
difficulties the bankers of the northwest
have is In handling foreign exchange, In
which many of the mills deal. One ot the
speakers declared that after the panics of
1893 and 1W7 business had come to almost
a standstill becasue of the difficulty In
handling the foreign paper. This, he said,
was true, notwithstanding wheat had
dropped to a point where It could have
been milled and the product utilized to
bring back to the United States the moiv;y
which was needed bo badly.
Both In the day and the evening meetings
the senator discussed meetings ot Inter
national exchanges. In connection with the
credit systems of other countries. He de
clared that of the two thousand million
dollars worth of goods which we send out
of this country every year 90 per cent Is
financed by foreign banks.
'"Now," he added, "we are becoming such
a creditor nation and the men who come
here are growing to be so prosperous that
in another generation I do not know where
you are going to find your borrowers. 1
think at any rate that we can have a much
more satisfactory credit organization with
reference to our foreign business than no'V
exists.
"The time will come when the bunks ot
the United States, I trust, will do this
business and make the profit, Instead ot
permitting foreign institutions to do so."

National Live Stock Exchange Will

CHICAGO, Nov. 13. The executive com
mittee of the National Live Stock exchange
at a meeting here today launched a cam
paign for the removal of the tax on oleo
margarine. "Live stock people throughout the coun
try," said W. A. Moody of East St. Louis,

the tax on oleomargarine is unjust and
unfair and our meeting her today was

to be waged among the people and legis
lators throughout the country to have the
tax removed."
AERO MEET AT LAT0NIA
Dirigibles Carry Off Honors of Open.
Ina Day Cnrllaa' Aeroplane
Damaged.
CINCINNATI, O., wov. 13.-The dirigi
bles easily carried off first honor at the
opening of the Cincinnati Aero club meet
at the Latonia race track today. An ac
cident happened to Glen H. CurtlRs" aero
plane after he had made two short flights
Charles F. Wlllard, the only other aero-
planist competing, made aeveral flights of
several hundred yards in a straight line.
All the pilots displayed perfect control
over their machines. In the dirigibles Roy
Knabenschue, Lincoln Beaohey and Crom
well Dixon swept around the track. Inter
sected it, swept over and above each other
and finally came back to earth, each time
within a few feet of the upot from which
they had started. Young Dixon, who Is
only 17 years old, won applause by rising
to a height of over 2,000 feet and perform
ing a nurnb-r ot Intricate evolutions at
that altitude.
On account of Curtlss' accident, which
occurred through a collision with a team,
he burden of supporting tne good name
of the aeroplane fell upon Wlllard. While
he attempted no long flights, he brought
the spectators to their feet, cheering again
and again as he swept past the grand
stand, rising and alighting as gently as a
bird and maintaining a speed of about
