Ii is SAID that 10000 persons took
part in the demonstration OF the dock

BEHIND THE EARS,
The Northern Wisconsin Train Robber
Captured.

Captured.
Reimund Hoizhay, the lone highway
man who has terrorized Northern Wis
consin for five months past, robbing
trains, waylaying stage coaches, and
holding up pedestrians, ID in GUS
tody. He was captured st Re-
public, Mich, on the 3lst by City
Marshal Glode and Justice of the Peace
j.. +. Weiser, and taken to Bessemer TO
answer for the killing of Fleisch oein at
Gogebic, on Monday of the same week.
Holzhay coniesses to all the stage and
train rohberies.
Holzhay is undoubtedly the most
desperate criminal that has made the
woods of Wisconsin and Michigan his
home since the days of the notorious
Maxwell or Williams brothers. The
lest named were experienced woods
men, as is Holzhay, and like him were
cool-headed crackshots, and Of muir
derous disposition, as was shown by
their killing of ihe Coleman brothers.
deputy sheriffs OF st. Croix County.
The rewards offered for the capture
of the noted train and stage robbar ag-
gregate about SO. 800. The Wisconsin
Centra! Railway Company has offered a
reward of 81 900 for the capture of the
man who robbed one of its trains near
Chippewa Falls; the United States gov
ernmen. has a standing reward for
the arrest of the Shawano
mail robber; theIMilwaukee,L Lake Shore
y Western Railway Company has Of
fered reward of 81 900 for the arrest of
the Gogebic stage robber, and there
are several other rewards which
amount to $500. The Milwaukee &
Northern Railroad at the time one of
its trains was robbed near Ellis juno
ton, offered a reward of $500, but with
drew It some time afterWard.
The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1889-09-07

A Bessemer (Mich.) dispatch of the
Sd says: Everybody who had the re-
motest connection with the capture of
the lone highwayman, Reimund Holz-
hay, is scrambling after a slice of the
big reward, and in consequence there is
the tiercest kind of a quarrel between
the numerous claimants. The result
will probably be that il will be lost
as IN the case of Prentiss III
Ter, the express robber caught
in Milwaukee. The several rewards Of
fered for the capture OF Wisconsin, s
Jesse James aggregate $500, but all oil
them are surrounded with a barb wire
fence. The Milwaukee & Northern
Company, whose train was robbed at
Ellis Junction, offered S500 but with
drew &c only week previous
to Holzhay's capture. The town
of Belleville, H.. where the
murdered tourist FIeischbein lived,
offered SIO0, and this sum will
probably be paid without question. Then
there are three 81 600 rewards, over the
payment of which there promises to be
a dog and parrot time. One thousand
was offered by the Post-ofice Depart
ment of the government. Post-oftice
Inspector Pulsifer ssid this forenoon,
as ne took a train south, that he did not
believe the government would disgorge
a cent of it, because the local authorities
have positively declined to give up the
prisoner to Uncle Sam for trial as mail
robber.
The reward offered by the Post-office
Department" says Mr.. Pulslier, "reads
for the arrest and conviction of the
perpetratOr of other robberies Of the
mail pouches carried on the Western
stage coaches, and If Holzhay is convict
ed of murder, the conditions of the re-
ward will net have been complied
with"
Another reward of 81 600 was offered
by the Milwaukee, Lake Shore < West
ern claim agent, Mckinlay, who was
here to-day, and said that the company
wouldn't quibble about the payment,
but was ready to pay. However" he
added, 1.-The claimants must first settle
their quarrel among themselves. The
company Will keep the money until they
come to an agreement" Then there is
the 81 600 reward offered blythe Wiscon-
sin Central Company, concerning which
nothing is known here beyond the fact
that it has been offered.
Up to date there are i've principal
claimants, with a prospect that two or
three others will bob up when distribu-
ton day comes around. The quintet
consists of the two O'Briens, father and
son, who are the landlords of the hotel
at Republic where Ho'zbay s;onped,
Marshal Glode and Justice OF the Peace
Weiser, who seized Holzhay when he
emerged from the hotel upon the street,
and the policeman who knocked him
nearly senseless with club as they
struggled on the sidewalk.
