WILL NOT BE BROUGHT TO OMAHA.
Oid-Time Crook in the Tolls in the
south,

South.
An old Omaha crook is under arrest at
Chattanooga, but owing to the fact that the
case against him is not a strong one, the
authorities of that city have written to Chief
Sigwart to inform him that Omaha may
have the prisoner. The man is Harry Mar
tin, alias j. L. Briscque, alias Morris Nor
gan, but best known as Spanish Dick
AS a burglar he is well known in many sec
lions of the country.
The man is wanted in this city for a bur
glary near Seventeenth and Cass streets,
The job was committed some time last win
ter. At that time Spanish Dick had been
just released from the Nebraska peniten-
tiary, where he had served a term for a
burglary committed in Nebraska City. No
effort will be made to bring him to the city
for this job, however, as it was not big
enough to warrant the expense. The pris-
oner is also wanted in Newport, Ark, for
a burglary of considerable size. He will
probably be turned over to the authorities OF
that town.
