The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-02-05
SET A FAST PACE.
Nephews of a Chicago Alderman Ar
rested i'm the Mill City.

Three youngsters from Chicago were
arrested yesterday and are held at the
central police station for the Chicago
police. They are Harry and Robert
Maypole, nephews Of Winday City
alderman, and Walter A. Davis, who
took advantage of the adventuresome
opportunity of helping the two brothers
get rid of $500 in high old time spent
among the gay girls Of the tenderloin
district of Minneapolis.
Superintendent Of Police Smith re-
ceived telegram Wednesday from
Chief Inspector Fitzpatrick, Of Chicago,
which stated that three young men
giving their description) were headed
toward Minneapolis with $1,000 stolen
money in their possession.
The local inspectors watched all in
coming Chicago trains Wednesday
night and this morning, but none
brought such passengers. Inspector
James Doyle and Officer Gus Volk re
ceived information though, that the
trio was quartered at the ST. James.
The young men retired in a maudlin
condition, but had completed their
toilette ait 10 O'Clock and were look
ing spick and span when taken into
custody.
AT the station they appeared as
clipper as three young chipmunks and
talked freely Of their two days spree in
Minneapolis.
Upon being searched at the station
something over $500 unspent money was
recovered. A receipt for 500, signed by
a local tailor, was also found in their
possession.
They went through the interview or
deal in true Chicago style. Now, don't
go back to the office and dash off some
thing about us being inexperienced
kids" they said to a reporter. "Give

range for a treat, provided the jailer
is susceptible to BRIDE" Saying which
they winked slyly to him Of the bunch
of keys, who stood by smiling.
What places OF amusement did you visit
last nght?" asked Inspector Doyle.
20, ask US something easy" and the three
laughed heartily. The younger OF the May
poles then stated that they had taken in every
place eys could find. i, The show at the
Metropolitan held their attention until about
Ii O'Clock, after which they engaged the old
est and best-posted hackman they could find,
and Davis interposed that he guessed they
didn't overlook many bets.
1--WE had a joyous time, and threw a few
rusty dollars around, didn't we?' he said,
slapping one Of his companions Familiarity on
the back. Harry Maypole smiled family, and
tell you that the condition of my head is not
encouraging. expect. though. that one
must expect little rot gut whisky in pro-
miscuous jaunt like we took, eh?"
Capt. Coskran, who was present during the
humorous interview, interjected a remark
now and then. What pity 1t would have
been had one Of you been separated from the
Others" he said once. ut certainly would
have been impossible to replace you without
an Importation"
Yes the fraternity is pretty slow in this
burgh,' replied one Of them, jocuarly. I'VE
like the town, though. 1t is quiet, and we
seemed to be appreciated as a good thing
wherever we found ourselves"
Walter Davis stated that he Joined the two
Maypoles on the train. He Is purely a Chi
cago product, however. and appears to have
known his two companions for years.
The Chicago officers have been notified of
the roundup, and will send representatives at
once.
