New York, Sept. 1.-THE Herald this

Wednesday noon. The man in custody
is believed to be his son.

so much confidence in him"
But Bill Dalton is said to be dead"
I know that. He's been reported
dead half a dozen times, but know
that he is alive. I am positive that he
is the man we are after"
The prisoner known as James Dalton,
when arraigned in court took the pro-
ceedings as matter of course, entered
a plea of not guilty, and waived exam
inatiOn. He did not deny that he was
Bill DaltOn's son.

The robbery for which Dalton was ar
rested was committed in the hallway
of a tenement where Hildebrandt, a
young clerk for a brewing firm lived.
HildebTandt while en- route to the bank
with about $4,000 in cash and checks,
stopped at home for his noon meal. In
the hallway two men sprang upon him.
He fought to the street where he was
knocked almost senseless just as po-
Hceman arrived. Dalton was seized
but his confederate escaped with the
satchel, containing the funds.
