A MILLIONAIRE MURDERED.
Buiiets sent Through his Heart and
brain BY burglars. Who succeed
bn Escaping.

Amos Smell. the millionaire real estate
owner and acknowledged wealthiest landed
proprietor in Chicago, was shot dead In the
hallway OF his residence early "Wednesday
morning. Two bullets entered his body, one
In the brain and the other In the heart.
Either wound would have produced instant
death. He was found wh,rc hc fell, FIVE
hours later, at the head OF the front hall
stairway, stretched nc ftll length near the
top step lying In a pool OF blood. Ills pistol
within few feet Of his right hand showed
that one shot had recently been fred. The
wounds In the head and heart were produced
with "A 3S-calIber revolver, aud the shots were
evidently fired M short range and while the
dead man was facing south, thus exposing
the left side TO the murderer or murdcrer
nnsacking his parlors.
The crime Is one OF the most desperate and
sensational which has been recorded for
years In Chicago criminal annals. IL was the
direct outgrowth OF an attempt successful
90 loot the residence Ola wealthy eth
zen who IN his foolhardy bravery ran uncon-
sciously into the very arms and rcVolyers OF
his desperate visitors. Contrary 10 the usual
sensational and mysterious murder, there Is
but one theory connected with the crime,
and that Is that In robbing the house the
thieves were surprised Dy Mr. Snell, ana 10
escape committed murder. Who they are
Tor Il Is generally believed that az least two
were concerned In the crime--ls not known,
and thus far there Is not even the slightest
clue 20 their identity. The perpetrators OF
the crime are the only living witnesses OF the
tragedy, and thus necessarily the work ofthc
police will be slow aud In all probability

thieves ms 1I>tlcis," as they are called In
the Southwest for the purpose of robbing eN.
press and mail trains Ian Texas. The flint cN-
p!olt occurred on the Southern Pacific Road
AZ Flatonia, Tex, In the spring OF 1897, IN
which they spared neither express, mail, nor
passengers. They realized about $4,000
IN cash and other property, one
item being $4,000 worth OF dia-
monds and jcwelry belonging to
an Eastern firm which was on the train.
Their next robbery took place about two
weeks later, when they captured train at
Mcneil. on the International Great
Northern Road. and secured about Sls,OW
from the express, the mail, and the passcn-
gers. After this robbery large rewards were
offered for the arrest Of the gang by the
Wells Fargo and Pacific Express Compa-
MES and the Southern Pacific and lntcrna-
tional x Great Northern Railroads, and also
by the state OF Texas. Gov. Ross, of Texas,
took a very active interest In the matter.
The gang next struck train on the Texas 4
Pacific west of Fort WORTH and secured some
valuable booty from the express car. The
dcspcmdocs then split up for while, but
soon after rcorganized and commenced opcr-
ations again under their old leader, Capt.
Dick, and pounced down on a Southern Pa
ciilc train a second time. The first move was
made OH capt. Dick" with the above re-
suit.
