be hotel clerk. He has confessed his part
In the transactions of the gang to Acting

The combination which was formed by
these accomplished crooks about two years
ago was composed of Charles Fisher, Rob
ert wallace, Barney Kelly, alias John A .
Gray; William Morgan, alias Billy Ham
1Iton alias Eugene Torbet, and Frank
Griffin, alias Denny Cairns. They all met
In prison, and were discharged about the
same time In 1898. Wheeler, the last one
TO remain out of prison, was a compare
lively new member of the organization.
Their plan was to rob street mail boxes
and use the checks they might find in the
letters thus secured, In every instance,
when necessary, unless the check was
made payable to bearer, forging the in
dorsement thereon. Wheelcr's duty was
TO dispose OF the forged checks, as his ap
pearance ives highly respectable, and he
was wholly unknown to the police.
1t was long time before the detectives
got track of Wherler, but they finally To-
Gated him in house in Brooklyn. He con.
fessed to acting Captain O'Brien his part
IN the scheme. He said that Kelly and
Grfflin stole the checks, that Morgan
forged the Endorsements and that he passed
