How the Terre Haute Wire Tappers
Were Caught by Farmers.

Special to the indianapolis Journal. 2
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, May st is now
known that the two wire tappers caught
tapping a wire east Of the city beat a local
poolroom out of 1854, but hat the game here
was only a 'feeler'' for the big job they had
planned for Evansville, in the rooms of
Stubblefeld, the rich Tennessee bookmaker.
Last Friday the poolroom people were con-
fdent they were being %swindled, but did not
know how. The Western Union manager
was appealed to, but he laughed at the
warning. Yesterday some farmers found the
men with the wire at a place on the Big
Four. They had a complete tel~egraphing
outfit, which they had carried from the city
in a buggy hired at a livery stable. They
tapped the through New York race wire
and held up the report of the races. Then
they sent along a code word, which was
licked in the. poolroom ONCE. In TINS once
sat a man, formerly a railroad ~onductor
but who is a. t~elegrapher. He caught the
code word and a confederate, who IS a we'll
known gambler, bought pools on the race:
through. Two of the conspirators went to
Evansville, and it was planned to catch
Stubblefield, the big bookmaker, for several
thousand dollars, and they would have done
so had not the tappers been seen in the
bushes. They gave the names of Frank
Williams, who says he he is a broker With Of
and Frederick Francis, who says his home
/. in Chicago. With them was a colored
man. who drove them from the city and
on q charge Of conspiracy, and the Western
Union Company will prosecute them. The
farmers thought the wire tappers were
to come at once, as they had caught two
spies" Williams's right nam is Q. J.
Stone. and that Of Francis Is g: J. Ham
graphs that they are experts and have been
in similar trouble, but never were convicted.

MARION, Ind, May 3.-Noah Wilhelm,
who returned to his home at Upland about
two years ago with an incredible story of
having been robbed Of the money he had
received for a shipment of stock, and who
forwards seized a draft Of 5000 in the
hands Of the cashier of the Upland Bank
and ran off with it, now appears as de-
PENDANT in a case which recalls the financial
transactions of John w. Crum and ]. G.
Evans, who are now serving a term in the
penitentiary for %swindling Alfred Haines
out of 1000. Wilhelm was arrested at the
instance of Amos Overman, who alleges
that he was a victim Of ar experience SINH
lar to that which Crum and Evans gave
Haines. Two years ago, he states, Will
helm came to him and proposed that they
invest in goods" which the former would
buy on one of his trips East. Overman was
to invest $500, which he paid to Wilhelm.
Crum at the same time giving Wilhelm a
check for 81, 0O0. Soon afterward came a
box addressed to Overman which Wilhelm
instructed him to conceal until the three
could meet and examine the contents. 1t
contained a railroad coupling pin, and
nothing else of any value whatsoever. On
the discovery of this Crum played furious,
and accused Wilhelm of having stolen the
money which it was supposed to contain.
Overman saw the situation and realized
that he had been buncoed, but said nothing.
When the Haines affair developed he went
to Wilhelm and compelled him to give his
note for the $500. Wilhelm failed to pay and
the arrest followed. 1t is understood also
that investigation Of the alleged robbery in
which Wilhelm claims to have lost the
money for his sale of stock has resulted in
developments which will be brought into
the courts. Wilhelm's bond was fixed at
$5OO. which he gave.
