CARL HAGENBEGK
COMBINED SHOWS
TO BE HERE SOON
Famous Circus This Year Car
ries More, Than 1,000 Peo
ple and Uses Three
Larfje Trains.
The billboards and dead walls
about the city are proclaiming in
all the eloquence of pictorial art that
the Carl Hagenbeck and Great Wal
lace shows combined is, visit
Omaha Monday, June 30, at Twenty
first and Paul streets. Great inter
est attaches to the event because
amusement lovers will have a chance
of viewing the combined perform
ance of the two greatest circus or
ganganisrations on the road.
-The Carl Hagenbeck trained wild
animals are famed in every nation
on the globe. At the European head
quarters of the show, London, Eng
land, the animals are, transported
after their capture and taught to
perform remarkable feats. There are
lions that ride upon the backs of
galloping horses; tigers that ride"
bicycles; polar bears that play roller
coaster and in fact there may be
seen during the performance almost
every wild animal, broken and sub
dued to execute tricks. Almost a
score, of noted wild animal trainers
headed by Capt. Emil Schwyer, have
charge of the performing wild ani
mals. They all perform in a mas
sive steel arena.
The history of the Great Wallace
circus is a part of the history of
Atrferica. With -B. E. Wallace as
the originator, the show grew from
a single wagon to one of the most
colossal institutions of its kind.
Starting as a poor Indiana farmer
boy, Mr. Wallace by perseverance
and honesty in the course of 30
years, saw his show reach the pin
nacle of America's circuses. He
was puce so poor that he was glad
to work for 50 cents per week.
Today he is rated as America's
richest circusman. The assertion
has- never been questioned. Yet,
with his many and varied interests,
he devotes his personal attention to
to the interests of the Hagenbeck
Wallade shows. There are in the
neighborhood of 1,000 people con
nected with the big show. FTe per
sonally engages every attache. The
combined shows are transported
from city to city upon three of the
longest circus trains in America.
The 22 tents that house the great
circus cover a small size farm, form-'
intr in fact a complete city within it
self. ,

Conspiracy Against Mrs. Thoma&firown.
Bootlegger, Who Boasts Police vAre Afraid to Arrest Him Because He "Knows Too
Much," In Signed Statement Tells How, at Instance of Detectives Armstrong

Escape When Raid Was Pulled Off Admits He Is Not "Married to Woman
- He Claimed As His Wife Says Ofjfiaers Were Drunk. '

Conscience stung, Roy Kelly at
at the 11th hour has made a clean
breast of the cowardly and criminal"
conspiracy between himself and De
tectives Herdzina and Armstrong to
brand the Mrs. Thomas Brown- flats
at Twenty-first and Cass streets as
a disorderly house.
Kelly who is an acknowledged
bootlegger and who has boasted of
selling whisky in Omaha under po-
lice protection, is only 18 years old.
In a signed statement pleading
that his conscience would not allow
him to remain silent longer, the boy
tells the details of the sordid story
of the conspiracy instigated by the
two detectives, whom Commissioner
Ringer is defending for having en
tered the Brown flats, after having
framed up to show that the house
owtTed and rented by Mrs. Brown
at 2106 Cass street is a place of pros
titution. Mrs. Brown was insulted,
subjected to cruel humiliation,
thrown in jail without bond and
threatened by the police.
Admits He Did Wrong
Kelly says his motive for telling
the truth is that he knows he has
done wrong to the parties living in
the two houses. He declares he
was allowed to escape by the police
after he had carried out his part of
the agreement.
It is his opinion Detectives Herd
zina and Armstrong were actuated
by a desire to incur the favor of
their superior officers in the police
department.
Kelly asserts that he has been in
Omaha ever since he was allowed
to make his escape early on the
morning of June 6. He has talked
to scores of policemen, who read

being held at the city jail. The
policemen also knew Judge Foster
ordered Kelly arrested on sight.
He does not believe that any at
tempt was made by a single police
man to apprehend him.
Riding Around City
Kelly has been riding around the
city every day in his automobile
without fear of arrest. He was told
he would not be Tailed on to tes
tify at the Brown- trial. He was led
to believe he was not wanted to ap
pear at the council hearing of the
case against Herdzina and Arm
strong. Kelly declared he is gong to leave
Omaha to start life over again.
He tells of how Detectives Herd
zina and Armstrong approached him
late on the night of June 5. They
asked him to take them for a ride
in his car'.
Kelly says he drove the two de
tectives around the city for a while
when they suggested getting some
whisky. The officers procured sev
eral bottles of liquor and drank with
the boy untill three of them were
drunk, he declared.
Thenr he says, they made him
their proposition to frarne up on
the house at 2106 Cass street, which
two other detectives had been
watching for a week, and in regard
to which they, reported to Chief of
Detectives Dunn they were unable
to find anything wrong.
Kelly says that he objected, be
cause the girl whom he had repre
sented to be his wife, was staying
in the house. The officers told him
to call up and have the girl to get
out of the house.
According to the statements of
the occupants of the Cass street
house, the girl left a few minutes
before the officers arrived.
Kelly declares that Detectives
the bottle of liquor to place in the
room occupied by Mrs. Esther Ap
plegate and Mrs. Helen Baldwin,
who were taken to jail with Miss
Elsie Kubat and Miss Wilma Reed,
with Mrs. Thomas Brown and her
son Thomas Brown, jr. The girls
were held for examination by Dr.
Palmer Findley on orders of Com
missioner Ringer and Chief of Po
lice Eberstein, who have issued in
structions to the captains at the po
lice station that no women who are
arrested shall be aljpwed to furnish
bond until it is determinedvwhether
or not they should be treated in the
Women's Detention home.
These orders were issued by the
heads of the police department de
spite the provision set forth in Com
missioner Ringer's new Detention
home ordinance that no woman shall
be committed to prison in the De
tention home until they have been
convicted in open court.
Miss Reed is still being held, in
the Detention home, though Dr.
Findley announced the day follow
ing her arrest that she was not dis
eased. Miss Reed's father was told by
one of the detectives at the police
station his daughter was being held
because the heads of the department
were afraid she would talk too
much about the Brown case. He
was told his daugter was not dis
eased and that she would be re
leased after the city council had
heard the case against Detectives
Herdzina and Armstrong.
Miss Reed was forced to sign a
statement exonerating the members
of the police department after she
had been given a gruelling third de
gree. This statement she has re
pudiated. His statement in full follows:

met Detectives Hardzina and Arm
strong in , -the vicinity of 2106 Cass
street. I 'am unable to say what the
exact time was, but would judge
that it was about an hour before the
officers made the raid on the house.
"The detectives told me that they
wanted me to take them for a ride.
I had nothing particularly to do.
and invited them into my car. Later
they obtained several bottles of
whisky. VI do not know where they
got the liquor. They insisted on my
drinking until I was intoxicated.
Both of the officers wer intoxicated.
Took Joy Ride
We had been riding around for
some time when Herdzina and Arm
strong proposed to me to help them
to frame up on the house at 2106
Cass street. I told them I had my
girl staying there. They told me tp
go to a telephone and call her, and
tell her to get away that the place
was going to be raided. We waited
long enough for my girl to get away
and drove back to the Cass street
address. I went in ahead of the de
tectives and placed a brandy bottle
in the room occupied by Mrs. Apple
gate and Mrs. Baldwin just a few
minutes before the officers, entered
the house and made the arrests.
Allowed To Escape.
"I was allowed to escape accord
ing to my previous arrangement
with Herdzina and Armstrong.
''I would never have agreed to
tin's arrangement if the officers had
not gotten me drunk. I am only 18
years of age, and knew T could not
do some ot tne tnings i wanted tc
do if I did not remain oit friendly
terms with the members of the po
lice force.
"My motive for making the above
statement is that I do not want to
see innocent persons victimized by
these two detectives, whose pur
pose, in my opinion, was to incur
favor with their superiors at the ex
pense of those living in the Brown
flats. ;
"I feel I have done these parties
a grave injustice and am taking this
means to right the wrong." I am
leaving this part of the country to
start life over again."
Cosgrove Says He Was
Not In Car With Kelly
Jimmy Cosgrove, who was de
clared to have been riding in an au
tomobile with Roy Kelly Friday
night through the downtown streets
of Omaha, declares that he has not
seen Kelly for a week.
Cosgrove asserts he knows Kelly
has been in the city ever since
Police Commissioner Ringer an
nounced he was making every pos
sible effort to apprehend the fugi
tive, who is charged with framing up
the raid on the flat building at 2106
Cass street with Detectives Herd
zina and Armstcong. It was some
one else in the car with Kelly, he
said.
"The person who said he saw me
in the machine with Kelly is mis
taken," said Cosgrove. "I was rid
ing on a 'motorcycle until midnight
Friday night. I was not in my car."
Bankers In Omaha Last Week
Represented Huge Amount
Nebraska bankers who were in
Omaha last week for their annual
convention represented a total cap-
ital of $900,000,000. Tnese are the
figures compiled by the publicity
department of the Chamber of Com
merce. An effort was made to ascertain
the total of the deposits in the
banks represenfed by the 1,000 bank
ers, but so far the figures have not
been obtained. The total, it is said.
will exceed $1, 000,000,000.
AS TRESPASS ON
OWNER'S RIGHTS
Court Rules Testimony Fails
to Show Any Evidence of
Wrongdoing at 2106
Cass Street.
(Continued From Fag One.)
fer in my court," declared Judge
Holmes. "Have you never heard
the story of Mary Magdelene?" he
court asked the two insistant prose
cutors. It was a bad day all around 'or
the prosecution. Judge Holmes at
the outset insisted that the prose :u
ticn speed up, and stop sparring for
time. When the state had con
cluded its testimony, Attorney Mag
ney and the judge asked for the
report referred to last week bv
Captain John T. Dunn, and in which
Captain Vanous stated ' that the
Brown flats were patched six nights
and nothing wrong observed.
"I move for a dismissal of this
case on the grounds that the prose
cution has not made a cae," said
Attorney Magney.
"Where is that report that was
referred to ?" asked the judge. "Is
there anything to conceal in this re
port? Does the witness refuse to
bring the report in. I recall that
witness testified that the Brown
place was observed six nights be
fore the raid and that the officers
did not see anything wrong."
"We thought that Jhe opposing
counsel were men of integrity and
that they would bring the report in
as they had promised," replied At
torney Magney.
Failed to Prove Case.
In support of his motion for dis
missal Mr. Magney said: "It ismy
firm conviction that the state has
not proved its case."
During a discussion on the mo
tion for dismissal the followinging
dialogue ensued:
Judge Holmes: "Mrs. Brown is
charged with a serious offense and
she is entitled to the benefit of any
doubt. Isn't it incumbent upon the
state t prove beyond a reasonable
doubt that she had knowledge of
the things charged in the com
plaint?" Attorney Magney: "Detectives
Armstrong and Herdzina did not
testify to the same facts, although
they were together at the time of
the raid. I can't reconcile their
testimony. Is this the best the city
can do, to go to Iowa for witnesses
to appear in a misdemeanor case?
The state's case is flimsy and weak.
I am within my rights when I in
sist that Mrs. Brown be dismissed
here, and now." j
Prosecutor Mossman: "It is wrong
to infer that either-Armstrong or
Herdzina lied, because they hap
pened to differ in their evidence as i
to whether a woman wore slippers
or whether she was barefooted. It
may be that these men are not used
to seeing women in dishabille.
Judge Holmes': "There hasn't been
any evidence of prostitution; there
may have been some indiscretions.
There is something about this cse
I don't understand. The officers
who made the first investigation
were there a week and fohnd noth
ing wrong, according to the report.
Then two other men wece sent and
they used theirpwn construction on
what they believed constituted an
illgoverned house Nothing has
been shown in the "festimcmy that
Mrs. Brown had any knowledge of
the character of tha tenants, and
it seems strange that these officers
took the word of the so-called in
mates, as to who was" the keeper
of the place. It was said many
years ago that every man's home is
his castle. What was the cause of
the officers going to this woman's
home and taking her out of Ded?
It seems to me that these officers
unlawfully trespassed on the rights
of this defendant, when they arrest
ed her and took her to the police
station. Whether or not it was a
disorderly house, seems to have
been left entirely to the discretion
of the arresting officers."
Prosecutor Mossman: Why does
the court ignore the presence of men
and women in a room together at
1:30 a. m.?"
Judge Holmes: "It is not a legal
(presumption that they were neces
sarily there for immoral purposes."
The court held that the prosecu
tion . had not shown that Mrs.
Brown knowingly permitted ary
wrongdoing in her flats.
When the prosecution introduced
Policeman Fred Palmtag, Judge
Holmes was moved again to express
himself in forceful language. Palm
tag was sworn as a witness to testify
to the reputation of a young woman
who was arrested at the time of the
raid, at 2106 Cass street. Palmtag
admitted that his testimony dated
back nearly two years.
''If this line of testimony would
be admitted, it would tend to
blacken the character of a young
woman who may have reformed.
Did you ever hear of the Mary Mag"
delene?" the judge asked of the
prosecutor. Palmtag was excused.
Pearl Tisher, another witness for
the state, testified that she lived one
year in the Brown flats. On one
evening she overheard three men
arguing in an automobile outside of
the Brown place.
"Never heard anything wrong in
side," she testified.
"What is the use of taking up the
time of this court with this kind of
witnesses?" asked the court. Miss
Tisher was excused.
Witness Excused.
Miss Delta Tillman, resident of
the Young Woman's Christian asso
ciation home at 2016 Cass street,
started to testify, but when she ad
mitted that all she had ever heard
of the reputation of the Brown flats
was gossip inside of her own place of
residence, the court ordered her ex
cused and her testimony stricken
from the records.
Alice M. Mason, house secretary
of the association home, 2016 Cass
street, testified that shS heard taxi
cabs stop at 2106 Cass street'
"What do you know of 2106 Cass
street as a place frequented by im
moral woman?" was asked of the
witness.
"Only what was told to me."
'"Did you ever make any com
plaint to the officials."
"I aever made a complaint."
"Do you think that all of the taxi
cabs you heard stopped at 2106?"
"No, not all of them."
The judge asked the witness if
she ... knew anything of her own
knowledge, and &he admitted that
she did not, whereupon Attorney
Magney entered strenuous objec
tions tp the prosecution introduc
ing witnesses whose information was
based on hearsay and gossip.
