Louis as was given out, but all re-
manned here, and in addition thereto
a detective arrived from st. Louis to-
day bringing Oscar Cook. Witrock,
accompanied by his mother and Cook
were taken to the Adams Express
Office, where a consultation was held.
As the result OF their days work
! the detectives have secured probably
about / 10000. A lot of bank notes
were found concealed in beer bottles
under the house of John Cox, in
East Bottoms, where Cook boarded
and Witrock STAYED while here. An
other portion was found under a house
opposite that OF Cooks father, and
Jack Cook, Oscars brother, gave up
a thousand dollars that they had.
The detectives think that a dozen ac-
quaintances of Cook and Witrock re-
ceived sums of money, some knowing
and others ignorant OF the source OF
the wealth. 1t is said that e a
dozen of Pinkerton's men are here
working up the matter, and there IRE
rumors OF some further arrests to be
made. There has been already re-
covered about $45 900 out OF the 10000
stolen.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-Responses
to the invitations sent out by telegraph
by Capt. George E. Lemon, asking sub

Mrs. Logan, are coming in rapidly,
and at 10 o'clock tonight the total
amounted to $26, 900. Nothing has
been heard from the committee in

and similar committees are engaged in
other cities who have not reported re-
suits. Mrs. Logan's property is en-

and the purpose is to raise sufficient
funds to clear it of encumbraRce, and
leave her sufficient to enable her to
live in a ann to which she has
been accustomed.

by a pistol shot. Just before the

anda of his hotel in company with a
lady acquaintance, and seemed I'M
