ARRESTED IN ST. LOUIS
HERBERT SIKINGER, WHO ELOPED
WITH BERTHA sCHAFHAUsER.
They Were NeighbOrs at Mount Jack
son, and Came to Market
Together.

Herbert Sikingers gardener, who, until
three weeks ago, lived near Mount Jackson,
was arrested yesterday in st. Louis on a
charge of kidnapping. Three weeks ago, il
is charged, he eloped with Bertha SHAFT
hauser. the daughter of a neighbor, and un-
til yesterday he eluded the police. The girl
is only fourteen years DID, but it appears
that Sikinger has taken her to many of the
larger cities of the middle West, stopping
at cheap hotels.
On the Saturday night of the elopement
Sikinger, who is Married man, and on i'm
innate terms with the family of Bertha
Shafhauser, accompanied the girl and a
hired man to the city, where they were to
sell produce at the market. After the days
work had been accomplished and the trio
were apparently about to return to their
homes, Sikinger, 1T is claimed detained the
girl and finally induced her to leave the
city with him. 1t is charged that he threat
cred to take her life if she refused to ac-
company him and insisted on returning to
her father The pair went from here to
st. Louis and from there to Kansas City,
where the girl says they were to have been
married. They had been gone from this city
but short time when the occurrence was
reported to Superintendent Quigley and
cards were sent to the police departments
in many of the large cities. Before many
days had passed the police had traced the
pair to Kansas City, but by some means
Silninger became aware of the actions of the
police and they left for Denver. From
Denver they went to Burlington and Chi
cago, stopping at each place a few days.
At times they would double on their course
and thus puzzle the authorities who were
keeping close after them. They finally re-
turned to st. Louis still unmarried and for
a few days had been hiding there. Sikinger
on last Tuesday sent the girl home. She
told her story TO her family and then re-
peated it to Superintendent Quigley. From
her the police learned the address, of Six
niger and the st. Louis police were notified.
Their efforts were successful and yesterday
they notified the superintendent that they
had the man in custody awaiting instruc-
tions. Detective Morgan was sent to st.
Louis after him last night and will return to
this city to-day with the prisoner
A dispatch from st, Louis states that
Sikinger acknowledges that he eloped with
the girl, but denies that he enticed her
away He says he left the city on July in
company with the girl and went directly to
burlington, Ia. They reached ST. Louis July
IL. Sikinger is forty years of age.
