 ST. LcUIs, Sept. 5-J. s. Dsckiey, one of ths best known liquor drummers ID the United States, is the man who out stripped the best detective talent ip the country i'd turning up" the b!S lie in surancs swindler. Dr. George ". Frak- CT. Hackley arrived m St. Louis today and registered at the Planters. He said:
 "One of the most important witness es is dead He was drowned iu Kansas August 18th, the day after the insur- ance companies paid the money over to J. E.. Lin coin for the FrRker estate by order of the court. The other one is now in jail at Springer, New Mexico. awaiting trial for burglary. The first man WAS drowned under the mama of Phillips. 1 have excellent reasons for believing, however, this was an alias and his real name was Jim Iriplett. Triplett, George Horrie, who Is now in tie New Mexico jail charged with burglary, and an old negro wEo since died, were with Fraker when be was supposed to have been drowned. I knew both Fraker and Horrie nearly twenty years and when l read of the story of Fraker's drowning while on a fishing excursion with such a crook as horrie, l was at once struck with the idea that the strauceness of his con- DanioGship was evidence of rascality. l have been quietly at work on the case since. From the first was convIrced F'raker was alive.
 ''I came to the conclusion that George Horria was the only one with kuoxl- edge of affairs from whom I could force definite and conclusive infoT nation. Sc 1 began to track him. After locating him, dscoyed him to Moberly and withcut letting him know I had any thing to do with il l had the marshal of the town, friend of mlne, arcs, him for carrying concealed weapous. After he had been in the lookup 6 day with out knowing definitely what charge would eventually bs lodged ageine: him. 1 called on him. He recognized ne at ouce and after hours of persuasion and threats l got from him not only all the details of the conspiracy of Fraker so swindle the insurance companies, but also the exact location of the doctors hiding place in Miuueeota. Then I hur- ried to Topeka, Kansas, ard told the officers of the Kansas Mutual Life h. 5ursnce company all 1 knew. Fraker's arrest soon followed ard that is all I wi'l say about this matter at present."
 Hadn't the insurance companies been after Horrie and Trlplett?" he was ask ed.
 "Oi course they had, but they could get nothing from them. I knew posi- lively Mir. Herrick, attorney for the Kansas Mutual, not so long ago offered 70 lay SIS, GOO in Horrie's lap and guar sutee him immunity if he would tell him Frszsr's whereabouts.
 Further than this Hackley would say nothing. That feature of the story which Hackley refuses to discuss Is pro- noance by others who have given the case close attention from the start end who have iuklinGs os what 1t is, Gs the most sensational Of all the elements which comprise the conspiracy. It IS hipted that in it were involved the names of two or three prominent ci;izsns of Missouri which, if mentioned, would shock the stete. It Is probable, it is said, the insurance companies them selves have made such terms with these men that for obyIous reasons there will be no sort of action against them which would reveal their identity and the im- portant psrt they took in the conspiracy.
