BELONGED TO A GANG OF THIEVES
Career Of Frank Wolf, killed by the
Agent at Fairfax, Iowa.

Some facts have just come to light in
connection with the tragedy at Fairfax,
Iowa, the other day, that sheds lig4ft on
past transactions and which are likely to
result in starving revelations and have
the effect of breaking up one of the most
dangerous gangs of criminals that has
ever infested Iowa. Frank Wolf, whose
real name is Frank Loescher, is none
other than Iowa BILL" the leader Of an
organized gang that has been operating
near there for the past six months. The
authorities have long suspected him, but
nothing could be proved. Members of the
crowd have been arrested several times
but could not be convicted. Wolf was ar
rested here last summer and held to the
grand jury for resisting an officer. He
broke jail and several others escaped with
him. He was a desperate character and
was always ready with his revolver The
home of his stepfather near East Amana,
has always been the rendezvous. The
people were afraid of Wolf and the gang
that made his home headquarters, and
made no effort to bring them to Justice
Tl.Cre are several caves near VOLTS home
and many more five miles west of Amana,
which were frequented by the crowd. 1t
is believed that this gang had a fence
in this city and another in Ottumwa, and
efforts are now being made to locate them
Schultz, the robber captured and now in
jail at Marion, is believed to have fur
nished the brains for the gang, as he is
well educated. 1t is now known that
Schultz did not tell everything when he
made his confession, and it is believed
that he and Wolf were the "Reddy" and
'Blackey'' he told of who had planned to
hold up the bank at Walford.

MANY CREDITORS
LEFT UNCONSOhED
A Sudden Exit Made by Polish
Butcher.
THE LIABILITIES CONSIDERABLE
About Four Hundred Dollars was Borrowed
and a Large Meat Bill is Left Unpaid.
The Missing Man Made a Bill Of
Sale TO His Brother.

Charles Kudarczyk, who conducted a
butcher shop at lO3 South Main street has
left the town under cloud. There are
several creditors who would like to inter
view him. It is said his obligations amount
to about nine hundred dollars of which
amount four hundred dollars is money bor-
rowed from friends and a large proportion Of
the balance is due for meat
Kudarczyk's disappearance was reported
yesterday, but when % newspaper man called
at the shop to verify the report a woman in
charge of the place declared that the story
was false. Developments before Justice
Shoemaker last night, however, showed that
the woman was either poorly posted or was
inclined to conceal the truth. Andrew
Kudarczyk, of Trenton, was complainant in a
suit before the Justice last night to recover
possession of a wagon, horse and set of
harness from Frank Hromick, who was
employed as clerk by the missing man.
From the testimony in the case il appears
that before the butcher disappeared he made
bill of sale of the fixtures i'm the shop and
the horse, wagon and harness to his brother,
the man from Trenton. When the butcher
skipped the clerk took possession of the horse,
wagon and harness to secure himself for
wages. When the case came up before the
Justice the clerk surrendered the property.
Immediately after the suit was settled
Bradigan Bros. came in with claim for
rent and Constable Phillips levied ON the
property the clerks had surrendered. After
considerable dickering the man from Trenton
paid the amount due for rent and again cot
possession Of the property The where
abouts of the butcher are unknown.

Victim of the F1nmes.

A narrowing and cruel death was the fate
of Margaret, the three-year-old daughter of
JOHN O'Neill, of Little Mine Run, after
suffering intense agony for twenty-four
hours. A neighbor ignited a small fire to de-
stroy pile of rubbish, and the little girl
while playing nearby, was soon enveloped in
flames, her clothing having caught by a spark
from the fire. She screamed aloud as she
saw her little apron in flames, and turning
began to run rapidly toward hor home, the
breeze gradually tanning the flames into
