IS MCMANN THE MURDERER
The Supposed Slayer of B. r. Wilson, at
st. Mays. Arreated Here.

>
A mysterious murder was committed
last October near St. Marys. The body
of b. i. Wilson was found in the tall
weeds by the roadside, with a crushed
skull, ten days after the killing. Last
night Thomas McMann was arrested in
North Topeka charged with the crime,
and he is locked up at the city prison
awaiting Identification. McMann GER
tainly tallies exactly with the description
of the murderer.
The arrest was made near the north
side fire station last evening by Officer
Gordon, who had McMann pointed out to
him by F. W. Jacobs of indianapolis,
one of the Rock Islands detective force,
who has Swallowed McMann several days.
A'r. Jacobs was seen by a reporter to-
day and he said: I am satisfied that
this man il the murderer Of Wilson. Not
only does he tally exactly with the de-
scriptlons of him, but his conduct IS such
as to make him open to suspicion l
have followed him quietly for several
days. He has been begging around in
North Topeka. 1 have talked to him
four times and each time he gave me
different name, and said his home was at
a different place, but once he gave me
the real home of the murderer"
One man who saw the supposed muir
derer at St Marys was taken to the police
headquarters this morning to try to
identity the man. After gazing ct him
the man but I can't swear to it. He
looks like him, but I only caught a pass
ing glimpse of the murderer last fall,
and If this is he I couldn't be positive
Of it,
B. F. Wilson was among those who
went to the opening Of the Cherokee
strip last Septem Der. He was disAp-
pointed in securing a desirable claim,
and after staying in the strip several
weeks started TO return home, almost
without money. He still possessed MS
wagon and team Of good horses. On his
return he picked up another man who
was hoofng it back to .'the states"
He was also broke and Wilson
volunteered to take him along. They
went together a. far as St harys in
PottawatO ME county when Wilson was
murdered by the man he had befriend :
ed His skull was fractured with an axe
and he was thrown into the tall weeds by
the side Of the road The murderer then
drove 10 town aud sold the horse and
team to a Iiverymau. with the blood stain
still fresh on the wagon The murder
was not discovered until the murderer
had had plenty Of time ia which TO make
his escape. The conviction of the MUIR
derer rests almost wholly on the identih-
cation Of the liveryman and his employ :
es, who were almost the only ones who
saw the murderer. They are expected
to arrive from St Aarys this evening.

Sheriff Burdge arrested Blackie in

the court room he was arrested by q
United States deputy marshal and com
mitted to Jail on the supposition that he
was one of the men who burglarized the
ST. Marys postoffice.
Then an effort was made to secure
enough evidence to hold him. and a half
dozen men from St Marys were sub
