ROBBED A SLEEPER.

Pacific Robbers.

Special to the Globe
FERGUS FALLS. Mimi. June d.
Two Plnkerton men arrived in the city
from Frazer this morning, bringing
with them a man they are certain
robbed the Northern Pacific sleeper last
week between Wadena and Luce. 1t
will be remembered that last Monday
robber entered Northern Pacific
sleeper, dubbed the porter Tito uncOn-
seriousness and robbed the passengers
of their gold watches and some cur
rency. The robbers then pulled the bell
cord, stopped the train at Luce and got
off. From that time the Northern Pa
cific officials have been making deter
mined effort to capture the men who
committed this crime. Pinkerton de-
tectives have been in and around Frazer
and Luce, and have finally got
one of the men. The prisoner
gives his name as George Lyons, and
says he was born at Pictor, Prince Ed
ward county, Ont. He Is about twenty
seven years of age, and has been l0iter-
ing around Frazer and Luce since the
robbery. He has frequently visited the
farm of Mr.. Murphy, and made in
quiries about the description of the sup
posed robbers. He came to Peterson
hotel. at Frazer, for his meals. but al
ways disappeared at night. 1t was
afterwards found out that he slept in a
barn some distance from the track, al
though he had $50 in cash in his pockets.
One time he had two revolvers on his
person, but at the time he was arrested
he did not have them. He does not
give any account OF his whereabouts
before he was put in the jail here. The
porter recognized him by his voice be-
fore seeing him. and, on seeing. posi-
lively identified him. There is sufficient
evidence without doubt to convict him.
His hearing will occur next Saturday.
He had lot of skeleton keys, which
he passed to fellow prisoner in jail be-
fore he was searched. He has evidently
been in Jail before.
