Dunn, alias, ]. Stewart Crockett, ar
rived last Thursday morning from
Atlanta, Ga, in charge of Detective

county jail, ON the charge of having
obtained from Wood Bros, live

AT THE TRAIN.
There was large crowd at the $50
M. K. & T. train from south yesterday
morning to catch glimpse of the
man who has piled the vocation of
forger so long and with such success
full results. Many of the same crowd
gathered last night with the same OBJ
ject but were disappointed. This
morning they were rewarded. They
followed the detective and his man to
the Jail and then hung around for
several minutes after he had been
locked in his cell. The route from
the depot. up Ohio street, east on
Second and south on Lamine to the
jail, was lined with expectant faces all
anxious to get look at him. At the
Jail the doors were barred and he was
at once locked In the &c with Will
Hanson and other criminals. VIII
hanson was reading a Sunday school
tract and took his attention from it
long enough to survey the new arri-
val. He then returned to his forced
devotions and had very little to say.
He came out of his shell, however,
when a newspaper man was an
nounced, long enough to remark in
bitter tone to Sibley: "Don't say any
thing to those newspaper men if you
don't want to get done up"
MR.. sIBLEY TALKS.
sis this Mr.. Sibley ?" asked a
BAzoo representative addressing the
prisoner.
"No sir. This is Mr.. Dunn, please,
I don't know Sibley,' and a merry
twinkle shot from his excited eyes.
81 suppose you are newspaper man.
/ used to be a newspaper man myself
and can generally tell them when !
see them. / don't like them very
much as general rule, they cause a
man lots of trouble. I have some
good friends in the profession, how
ever, and / am the owner of part
interest in one of the best papers in
Texas. Where, did you say? Oh
that's all right, L own it and don't
care to say anything about it.
''Am I guilty? Well should say
not. Never was in Sedalia before in
my life. Been in St. Louis,
though. Nice town you have
here [ should judge by what little I
have seen of it. Had a delightful
trip up here. Came through Biz
mingham, Memphis and by way of
Lamar and Nevada. Nice gentle
men, Mr.. Kinney and Mr.. Meri-
wether had royal trip and they
treated me very kindly"
81 can't talk any more however un-
til see my lawyer. Haven't en-
gagged him yet, but think I will GIT
Mr.. jackson. As soon as the matter
is arranged will let him do the talk
ing for me or talk by his advice.
1t is bad thing to talk before yon
see your lawyer you are liable to
say something you will regret. ]
havn't any idea when / am to be ar
raigned, but | am ready when the
time comes to meet any charge they
have against me"
