ARSON, ROBBERIES AsD PROBABLE
MURDER PLASSED.I
The Gang Broken Up. and the Leaders
ID Jaii---A Ledger Reporter Sits
p the Matter 10 Che Bettom.

iiieFc iiaFt tSan several houses
robbed in Mexico lately. The editor
of this paper remembers one occur
renee of this kind, for he has been
ifrlng ON dried apples and warm water
ever since. Several men have also
been waylaid and robberies attempted.
In fact, a good deal of devilmeat has
been done in Mexico lately. We think
at last the police are On the right
track, and some of the worst leaders
are now in custody.
1t appears that there has been an
organized band of colored troops in
Mexico this winter who have done
much crooked business and planned a
good deal more. The parties arrested
by Marshal Murray for being in the
Snyder house robbery. appear to he
among the leaders. Frank Norton,
John NARROW, Mollie Thompson and
Jane Richards, now In jail. were all
concerned, as was Green Thornton.
Frank Norton is doing the talking,
ami we know that a good deal at least
of what he says is true. He says
there is a band OF fifteen colored
people in Mexico who had a series Of
rohberies and b~urnings planned, and
but for the arrests lately made, would
have been carried out. They hat
their headquarters down by the ole
round house and were well organized.
Several women belonged to them who
were to keep the goods stolen hid
(Wonder where they buried oul
watch?) They had arrangement,
made to lay for and sand bag Marsha
Murray and night policemen Buntol
and Surber, and ex-night policeman
Stasey. This wasfor revenge. The,
were also going to fay for H. Hall an,
c. Brandriff as they went home a
night and rob them. In fact, the,
did lay for Brandriff but did not ge
him. Norton says they were prepar
ing to rob Clacher & Ruloff's stor
and Pease' store at night, and, durin;
the robbery, the old Kellogg house 0,
Promenade street was to be fred t
draw the Gro wd. We find, on exam
nation, that the Stats in Pease's stor
were cut in two places, and that
hole had been partially bored in tn
rear door of Clacher& Ruloff's store
So it is evident that work had bee
commenced on their robberles.
The gang evidently intended to 70
and burn and kill, if necessary, by tn
wholesale. The most of those con
cerned are either known or suspi
cioned and had best make tracks. I
they do not, they may find that Mex
leo is a hard place for crooks of a
kinds.
Through the courtesy of Sherii
Woodward, we interviewed Fran
Norton yesterday, and he tells tn
following story:

Miss Mamie Matthews, who lives
west of Mexico, had a narrow escape
from death last Monday evening. She
was going home in her buggy, aud
when crossing the railroad, her horse
stopped suddenly on the track, and
refused to go further. A freight
train backed up and mashed the bug
gy into fragments. fortunately, Miss
Matthews leaped from the buggy an(
was saved. 1t vas, indeed, a clos'

WORDS.

A robbery was planned by Green
Thornton and Frank Roberts in the
store of Thos. Board. Frank Roberts
stole the key from the door of the
store in the daytime. a plot was
then connected by the above named
party with the addition of John Mar
low, Jane Richards, Mollie Thomp-
son, alias Mollie Ham, alias Mollie
Brown, alias Moliie Carter, to enter
and plumber Pease's grocery store by
effecting ar entrance through the back
window, but it failed through mach
nations of Frank Norton. A plot
was put up by Green Thornton to
rob Collins saloon by hfmself and
parties unknown. He, that ID, Green,
was to go in there while the saloon
was open and hide hehindnthe old
counter in the back room until they
locked up the saloon for the night,
and locked him in there, and then
have the saloon at his mercy, but he
was foiled by Norton. - ="
The store of Clacher & Ruioff was
the next place of operation, but the
robbers were scared away by night
| policeman, Jas. Bunton, before they
had got any further than to merely
start a hole ID the door. The parties
accessory to this plot were John Mar
low and Green Thornton, he having
worked at the store and knew where
everything was kept, but the scare
was put up by Norton he told them
that some one was coming but no
one was really coming. A clever plot
was laid to knock down and rob the
following named persons: Messrs.
Hamilton Hall, Charley Brandriff,
Charles Hedge, Gene Tomlinson,
frank Price and one other person
name unknown, supposed to have
been a rich drover. The robberies
I were proposed to me by the following
different parties and at as many df'
ferent times: John NARROW and Jans
Richards at one time; John NARROW
and Jack Cunningham twice, anf
Mollie Ham proposed toJohn MARROW
in nv presence to rob Frank Price
