CAPTURE Of FANOTED CROOK
Bud Warner Brought Up in the
Police Court.
HAS "DONE" NINETEEN YEARS
Some Romance i'm His Life of Crime.
Sent Down for Six Months-The
ored Tramps Surprises Judge
'Kimball-The Daily Grind.

In their efforts to rid the District Of the
criminals who flock here in the days pre-
ceding the Inauguration, the police today
had Bud Warner, notorious crook,
before Judge Kimball on charge Of va
grancy. Warner, whose birthplace and
trainin g-schooI has the honor OF being
Washington, is a light, intelligent look
ing mulatto, and was neatly dressed in a
blue suit and q checked oyercoat, as he
appeared in the court room to answer the
charge.
Warmers history as unfoIded by the tes-
timOny, is most interesting one. He is
known as one of the cIeverest thieves in
the country, and will turn his hand TO any
crooked work He has served nineteen years
in the pen for three mousse breaking
Offenses aud has served a number of terms
in jail for variety of crooked jobs.
His last mix-up with the law had a
most romantic turn He was sentenced in
1890 to u five years term for robbery
and was Just about to start for the
.'pen,'' when he was married TO Mamie
Norbeck, a pretty young white woman,
who had become infatuated with him.
From that day TO this, however, ne has
captured by Sergt. DAILY yesterday, ne
was living with a coIOred woman named
Mamie Gllroy in Willow Tree alley.
Detective Rhodes, OF the local office,
testified on the stand that Warner is
probably the slickest crook that the police
of this city have ever handled.
'.The first time we had him for stealing
a gold watch"
But he got off on that occasion, didn't
he. Mr.. Rhodes interrupted Lawyer Moss,
for the defendant.
Yes was the quick retort; "he got
a 81 20 gold watch
Has he done anything else wrong?''
asked the court
Yes, sir: all kinds He's handy man"
Warner in his own henalf testified that
he had come to this city week ago; had
no knowledge OF the bad character Of the
hcuss. n which he lived and had no inten-
ton to commit a crime.
The attorney for the defense made an
earnest speech for his clients liberty.
"If vour honor sends him down in
Washington. which Is his home. how can
lie hope to live in any other city of this
country Here is a man trying To live
a changed life How can he hope 10 sue
ceed under such circumstances?''
Excuse me. MI Moss" said the court.
IF this man were a bona fide citizen
of the District l should rot attempt 20
bold him. But here he has lived since his
discharge from prison, six months ago in
Baltimore. and now. lust before iBaug1I-
ration, when all the thieves of the eoun-
try are coming to Washington to see what
they can lift, he is found in the crowd.
viii have to hold him in 5000 bond,
or in default OF that he will serve six
months in the wOrkhOuse-T

REPORT ON ALASKA TERRITORY.
Report of Governor Brady Contains
SuSSesti0Hs.

Washington, Oct. %. = The report OF
John G. Brady, governor of Alaska. for
the past fiscal year, has been submitted
mates the present population at 5000 ma
tives and 10000 whites, predicts that with
reindeer transportation mails can be sent
all over Alaska during the winters, and
recommends that 100000 be appropriate
ed for government buildings and $4,000
for schools. 1t says nothing has so retard
ed Alaskas substantial growth as the
helplessness of settlers to obtain titles to
their homes on account of failure of con-
gress to extend the general land laws, and
urges to create a commission of tive-one
senator, one representative, and three
bona fide Alaska residents-to codifv laws
for Alaska.
The secretary of the treasury is urged
to confne the hunting of the sea offers
to the natives. for ''if the white man is
not shut off at once the Aleuts will have
to be cared for by the government
Gold Operations Reviewed.
Reviewing gold operations, Gov. Brady
says:
''Shipload after shipload of gold seek
ers and their freight has been rushed to
the extreme limit of salt water navigation
lynn canal), and there dumped upon the
beach, some above high water and many
below, as they learned to their SORROW
when the water covered them as they
slept. The gold seekers have had Il ter
rible time, but they are brave and start
ed out to endure hardships. As a class
they rank far above the average man of
this country.
Lumber is in demand and lots are sell
ing as high as $500. Americans are anx-
lous to secure a route to the Yukon which
shall be entirely upon United States terri
tory. Different parties are now out and
are carefully examining the mountains
between Yakutat and Cooks Inlet This
is the third season of work in Cooks In
let. The excitement over the Klondike
has drawn many away from that district
the output of gold this year
will be no mean sum. The possibilities of
the whole region bordering upon this in
let and upon Prince William sound will
draw crowds of adventures in the near
future"

COUNTERFEIT LIQUOR.
Big Plant Unearthed by Officers In
Chicago Cellar.

Chicago, Oct. 22.-In musty and dark
ened cellar at l3l North Sangamon street:
lawyers, detectives and constabIes have
nnearthed what they claim is one of the
largest liquor counterfeiting schemes ever
operated in this country. The liquor deal
ers of the world have been working to
learn the location of the plant for over
year.
After four hours work, $4,000 in la
bells, representing all the leading brands
Of liquor, bottled and cased, were found.
The loss to the liquor dealers and manu-
facturers through the counterfeit has
been nearly $500,O0O, and it may reach a
higher figure. Five big express wagons
were backed up to the door of the build
ing and they were filled with confscated
goods and taken in charge by Constable
Eckert of Justice Whites court.
In the basement a wonderful array of
secret passages were found leading in all
directions. Each one was separated by
a brick wall and arranged in such puz-
zling manner that a person unacquaint-
ed with the byways could easily be lost.
The raiding party comprised II men, in
Guiding attorneys for number of lead
ing liquor importers and distillers.

from the building he was ordered to throw
up his hands, which he did. and was re-
