Tnkerton, the famous Chicago detective,
had narrow escape from assassination.
Pnkerton arrived here few days ago,
on pleasure trip, and his arrival was
chronicicl In the newspapers. Last night
about II o'clock he was sitting In the
billiard room of the Palace hotel talking
20 Detectives BOhcn and Seymour Of the
local police force, when n messenger en-
tered and handed him a note, The pur-
port Of the communication was that the
writer wished Plnkerton 60 meet him In
font OF the Croker building, opposite
the hotel as he had something OF great
Importance to tell him.
Suspectng the trap Plnkerton arranged
with Hohen and Seymour TO follow him
and come to his assistance at a given
signal. When Pmkerton reached the
Croclicr building. the man stepped out
from tho shadow and asked You are
Bill Pinkerton, amt your as the man
spoke, tho light shone on his face, and
PinkertOn recognized him as Jack Hen
messy, the notorious train robber, whom
he had captured years ago, and who had
sworn to Xiii Pinkerton. Pinkerton real
tied his peril, but did not lose his pres
ence of mind. MY name is Pinkerton,"
said he, touching his coat. as signal
to he two detectives, who by this time
had approached and shouted Grab him"
and threw his arms about the man.
a desperate struggle ensued before
Hcnnessy was overpowered. He was hand
cuffed and taken 10 the city prison. While
talking TO Pnkerton Hennessy kept his
right hand in his overcoat pocket and in
that pocket was found loaded 4i-caiiber
pistol
Speaking Of the affair afterward Plnker-
ton sail
y am convinced Bohen and Seymour
saved my life. Hennessy is MS desperate
fellow as there Is IN the country. He is
train robber and has operated all over
the Northern and Southern States HIS
last Job was IN Mississippi some years
ago ana he Yves captured after a long
chase lie was sentenced to serve a long
term ~ the Mississippi peui-enuary and
after his conviction he swore to have my
life.
Gle escaped from the pcnitentiary and
there is standing reward OF $500 for
his recapture'
Plnkertgn says he win not claim the
reward, but will leave that to Bohen and
Seymour. Who came TO his assistance.
iJennessy has many aliases, and the po-
lice refuse to give his real name, lie
will be held here until communication can
be had with the authorities in Mississippi
