one of these gave the name of cooper
who disappeared the night OF the robbery and has
not since been heard FROM 1t stated that he had
prepared barrel for the reception OF the body and
had hooped it up and filled it with spirits after the
robbery. The HERALD investigated many such
clews" this: but, they led to nothing nothing
was written about them. In tho referred to it
found that the cooper. heretofore steady
father of family, had indeed run away with a
twenty y-seven who is still alive and kicking Tho
is fifty two and leaves wife and two children.
Another letter gave expressions said to have dropped
the lips of the jantor of large tenement down
town. and connecting him with the crime. The man
proved to be honest in every respect and the letter
was probably wri ten by some tenant who had been
dunned for his rent.
