HE ROBBED A CHURCH.
A prominent citizen and business
man of Shawnee, whose name can be
given if necessary, says:
"Having been requested by the
Rev. Hanan, pastor of the Catholic
church here to investigate the robbery
of said church last fall, / visited the
place about noon of the day following
the said robbery, and found that an
entrance had been effected to the
church by removing a pane of glass
which had been cut out of the sash.
On a vestry and some other articles /
discovered several spots of blood,
which indicated plainl that the per-
son had cut himself in getting in"
The witness stated further that in
his investigation he took hold of key
in the lock of side door, drawing it
from the lock, and right
where the outside of the
ball of his thumb grasped
the key was a blood spot. He then
took hold of the door knob naturally
and holding on to the knob looked
under his thumb and exactly where a
cut on the same would have made the
blood spot on the KEY was a blood
spot on the white door knob. He and
the priest resolved to say nothing but
look for
THE CUT THUMB.
Rev. j. S. Hannah, pastor of St.
Mary's Catholic church, states:
On the night of September 10Th, i
was watching from my window, be-
cause the dynamite fiends were abroad
and caused general CONSERVATION, and
our town had so little protection.
Shells had lately been thrown into
Kenney's house. and although a large
reward was offered Marshal Bailey
never even called to examine the
premises, or to inquire as
to the possible perpetrato-.
81 saw Bailey and Carter come
near the church and stop to talk.
Bailey did most of the talking, saying
'even this church may be robbed and
no one can find who did it. He said
that Catholic church in Philadel-
phia had been robbed and a piano
successfully stolen.
Sin the morning at mass / found
that the church had been entered and
a silver chalice stolen, but many
other valuable things were left un-
touched"
Bailey made no effort to discover
the perpetrators of the deed, although
he told the priest, after he had spent
the greater portion of the day in a
saloon, that certain suspicious parties
from an adjoining village had been in
town.
whoever" says the priest, "got
into the church cut himself at the
window, because
THERE WAS BLOOD
ON the white vestments and on a kew
and door knob. which had evidently
been opened by left hand. / that |
day saw fresh cnt on the thumb of
Marshal Bailey, although he kept it
in the palm of his left hand and closed
most of the time. Why man of his
moral character should control in the |
labor organizations / cannot see. He
does the order great harm,
but the people do not wish to say
much here for fear of personal injury |
DR. damage to their property.
BURNING A TUNNEL.
A detective engaged in working up
this case says that ON January LIST or
End, 1885, the British tun-
nell was burned by men
fiom Shawnee or Straightsville. !
Neil McEachen, Bailey's deputy,
was seen riding through town on
horseback. in rather a mysterious
the day of the fire, and it
was asserted that he was the man who
fired the tunnel. He did not deny it
when accused by the detective, only
saying, II was afraid you would give
me away" He then characterized
Bailey as dirty dog, possessed of
such low cunning that it was hard to
