THE STATE.
STAGE RoBeER CAPTURED.
Considerable Pmnder Found in His
Possession.


Possession.
Reimund Holiday, the highwayman train
robber who has operated in Northern Wis
consin and the upper peninsula Ct Michi-
gan for the last eight months, is behind the
iron bars Of the Marquette county -. He
was captured at Republic, minins town
twenty miles west of lshpeming, early on
the morning of Aug. 81, by Marshal Glade
of that village assisted by +. r.. WelSer' a
justice of the peace.
Examination of his pockets brought out
in addition to the A caliber and IS CALDER
revolvers captured by the marshal, three
gold watches and three pocketbooks, one
of which bore on the flop the name OF a.
&. kleischbein. This book, containing $40,
and one of the watches found on him, were
what he obtained by the cold blooded muir
der Of Banker F'leischbein near Lake Co
gebic.
Another pocketbool1 contained promis-
sorry notes and other valuable papers.
There was no name on IL, but IL was evi-
IDENTIFY the property of j. j. Law OF st.
Paul.
The man was questioned and admitted
that he was the robber OF the GogebiC
coach and that he murdered tleischbein.
Holskay is about % years Of age and
speaks with decided French accent. His
operations were begun in Shiawassee
county last winter, when he held up The
stage coach several times, merely riting
the mail pouches Of registered mail. When
the government inspectors made it too hot
for him he was hid by friends and next APP
peared as IA train robber at Ellis junction.
From there he was again unheard OF until
Aug. Z, when he robbed the Wisconsin Cen
trail sleeper, but was interrupted by the re-
porter who fired at him. He leaped from
the car into the darkness and was again un-
he I'd of until the stage robbery Of "A few
days ago. On that occasion he killed
Banker k'leichbein and wounded a Mime
apolis man named MLkerecher. The latter
fired four shots at him at i've feet range,
but did not touch him. Holshay then
struck into the forest and it is supposed he
was heading for the Macknac division OF
the South Shore line, where there would
have oeen an excellent field for plying his
work.
There can be no question that he is the
robber Of the railroads as well as the stage.
He practically admitted as much and the
description of the train robber fits him ex-
actly, even to his clothing.
