POLICE TRY OUT TWO CLUES
FIRST THEY CATCH A MAN WITH A
GOLD-TIPPED TOOTH.
He Was Not the WelIs-FargO Express
RObber, So He Was Let Co
Then They Arrested n Man
With u DiscOIOred Eye.

Jim Mcintyre, an odtime railroad
switchman, spent several hours last even
ing in the custody of the police at Central
station. because he had blackened eye.
Before his case had been investigated a
rumor ran about the station that Mcintyre
was suspected of being implicated in the
late Pittsburg & Gulf holdup. He was ar
rested at the Second street depot while
waiting for a chance to steal box car
ride to Port Arthur.
Harry Mays. who was released from the
Kansas penitentiary at Lansing yesterday
morning, was the cause of Mclntyres ar.
rest. He had just finished a five years
sentence imposed at independence. kaS..
for burglary and grand larceny and came
direct to Kansas CITY o after ter being dis dis
Intyre near the Second street depot. The
latter was very drunk. In some way he
had sustained bruise on his right cheek
bone. which left the eye discolored. Mays
claims Mcintyre wanted him to go to Shelf
field and rob ii bank. He had never heard
of Sheffield and noticing Mclntyre's black
thieves of Tuesday night and notified two
Pttsburg & Gulf detectives. The latter
called upon officers Greely and McCos-
old. wears Il heavy mustache and bears no
resemblance whatever to the Fargo rob
bers,, as pictured by Hyden's description.
But he was 'toted'' off to Central station.
where in drunken whisper he explained
himself. He was not held.
Mays followed the officers to the station.
When he was questioned and stated that
he had been out of the Kansas peniten-
tiary only. a few hours. he was locked up
in the holdovcr. He will be given hours
to leave the city to-day.
No suspects with gold filled teeth We're
gathered in by the police dragnet for the
Pittsburg & Gulf hodup last night. Not
a rifle disturbed the quietude of the affairs
about police headquarters after the Nc
1ntyre farce.
Messenger Hyden who was around the
station last night. had a look at Mcintyre
but laughed and said he was not one of
the robbers.
