act of cooking it, when he was jostied
by confederate. He then ran to the
Merchants National bank and told OF
lh9 loss to the assistant cashier, and
then returned to the clearing house to
find and notify Cashier Seymour.
Charles E, Gall. the assistant recelv-
ing teller of the First National bank for
the past thirteen years, testified that he
was at his desk and saw q man move
towards his window, whom he recog-
niZcd as Fleury. This was about the
moment of the robbery. He did not
see the messenger or the porter, but
there were five or six men in the bank,
one of whom was merchant of the
city. The man recognized as Fleury
moved towards his window, and Gall
looked up to wait on him. He hesi-
tated and then walked toward the
pillar. The appearance of the man was
then given.
Mr.. Johns crOSS-eXamined Gall about
having seen the photograph in the
GLOBE and about seeing the men in the
Office of Chief McGinn, but did not
weaken his testimony. He lad the

other cases, for cross-eXamination IN
case the matter goes to jury.
Shortly after 4 o'clock an adjourn
ment was taken until 1880 Monday
morning, when the state Will proceed
with its testimony. There are still a
number of witnesses to be examined.
One of the points remaining to be
brought out is as to whether the bag
stolen contained s. pieces or was one of
the others.
If the cases OF the other three under
arrest are to be examined separately
and they are strung out as long as the
case of FIeury, it will take all week to
get through with the examinations.
M'GINN AND MILLER ARRIVE.
Chief of Detectives McGinn, Detect
I've McFetridge and the prisoner Beu-
jamin Miller arrived safely in st. Paul
yesterday morning. A dray was secured,
and the ten pieces of baggage which
Miller and Morris had expressed to New
York were loaded on and brought to
police headquarters. The detectives re-
fuse to say whether the luggage contains
anything that could be used in the
prosecution of the case against the gang,
but it is rumored some of the articles of
wearing apparel worn by Fleury and
Meiggs at the time of the robbery were
found in the trunk.
Chief Of Detectives McGinI speaks
very highly OF the courtesies extended
to him while in New York. both by the
Pinkertons aud the city police officials.
The Pinkerton agency having been
hired by the officials of the Merchants
bank as soon as the robbery occurred,
and having captured three of the four
men now under arrest for the crime,
the local police and detective de-
partment have had practically moth
lug to do but subpoena witnesses
and see that the prisoners were not res
cued from the municipal court room
when arraigned. There was some de-
lay i'll New York owing to McGinn
identifying only Miller of the three
arrested as the one wanted here. Miller
secured lawyer and fought the extra
dition, but the Pinkerton agency took
charge of the case, and finally secured
the turning over of Miller to the st.
Paul officers.
Miller has greatly changed his ap-
pearance since he left St. Paul, and it is
hard TO believe that he is the same per-
son whose Photograph was taken in
Minneapolis less than month ago.
When taken into the bull pen in the
court yesterday morning Miller seemed
much pleased to see his three compan-
ions, and during the wait before the
case was called the Quartette held a
whispered conversation.
