SEELY Is CAUGHT.
THE MAN ARRESTED IN CHICAGO
MAKES FULL CONFESSION.
President Crane Of tho shoe and Leather
Bank on the Way West 10
Identify HIN.

CHICAGO. ILL, December n.-After
sharp lnqulsition. lasting from 1920 to II
o'clock this morning. Samuel c. Seely.
who was arrested last. night. broke down
and confessed to- the police that he was
the defaulting book-keeper who robbed
the National Shoe and Leather Bank, OF
New York. Of s3i5,0co. All the morning he
had persistently denied that he was See
ly. though the detectives who arrested him
last night were confident from the first
that he was the defaulter.
Seely did not sleep much last night lie
refused to talk to reporters this morning
as perslstently as he did last night. but
to Inspector Shea he reiterated his asser-
ton that he was not the man. Al 10
O'Clock he ate hearty breakfast In the
Inspectors office. There he was seen by
several reporters, but did not open his
mouth. even to acknowledge that he had
heard their queries. IL was not until he
was put in sweat-box that he nnaily
broke down and confessed.
Mcfarland, who betrayed Seeiy 10 the
police. says he first saw Seely or Dear
born street about November 2ith, ana
knew him as soon as he laid his eyes on
him. After that he never allowed him
out OF his sight for fear he would lose the
reward. Sometimes he slept at his board
ing-house and sometimes he took him to
bed with him at the Lansing Hotel. often
so drunk that he did not know what he
was doing. He never saw him gamble In
any way except on races. He was an old
hand at that, and was familiar with the
form OF a horse. He did not think he lost
more than SIS altogether while he was
with him. He always seemed to have
enough money, and spent It freely.
IDENTIFICATION.

had business dealings with the prisoner.
