of Crime.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20. = Frank II.
Truesdell, who is said to have been ar
rested in Kansas, was number of years
ago Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore american. He left this city
under cloud. He comes Of New Jer-
sey family and was born in GAINESVILLE,
Wis, where his father lived for few
years. Frank has not lived in Wisconsin
since he was an infant, but he has several
times imposed on Wisconsin people, who
thought him q son of John NJ. TruesdelI,
lawyer and politician of that State.
Truesdell first made himself known
while reporter on the New York
Tribune by stealing from Thorndyke
Rice the proof sheets Of an article which
General Grant had written for the North
american ReUjedU. This article he sold
before its appearance in the ReUielC. In
1856 Truesdell forged Senator Van
Wycke's name on paper, which realized
him $500, and swindled several men in
Washington.
Three years later he returned and was
arrested for stealing horse in Elmira,
\. \. He had then secured a lucrative
position and promised to reform. Since
mis- release from jail, after that affair, his
whereabouts were unknown until a dis
patch came to tell of his ruin, due 10
gambling and women. He was at one
time fairly well Off, owned good house
in the fashionable part of | street and had
good income.

the citizens most fear is that with the
troops removed, the Indians will have
their principal source Of revenue OK

to desperation by starvation and INSULT

murder and pillage settlers and their

Huston pushed the gun aside. The rob-

his tree hand took about 1910 in gold,
which he put IN his pocket. He did not
take all the gold and five or six hundred
dollars in silver was not touched.
Those playing at the game did not
move while the robbery was being COM

an adjoining room, heard uhe noise made
by several tWeutIes which the robber
dropped. He thought at tirst there was
row, but minute later learned the
trouble, and, seizing a shotgun loaded
with DuckshOt, started for the faro room.
The side door had just closed after til 9

the robber turned the corner of the
