TRACING THE ROBBERS
Pinkertons, investigating North
western HoIdup, Visit
Rock Island.
SUSPECT A FORMER RESIDENT.

Man Who Worked for c. X. L. 4 p. Rail-
way Company Believed to Have Been a
Leading Member of the Daring Gang
SIeuths Close on to His Trail Consult
Local Authorities.
Pinkerton detectives investigating
the Northwestern train robbery at
Maple Grove. Ill, were in Rock Island
the present week. looking up man
who formerly lived here and worked
for the c., r. 1. & p. railway company,
and who is under suspicion as one of
the leading members of the gang that
committed the daring Job.
The detectives consulted the local
authorities, and expressed the wish
that nothing be said of their visit
here, slipping away as quietly rs they
came. They are pretty well convinced
that the holdup was planned by an eN-
perienced railroader and claim to be
in possession of information that JUS
titles the arrest of the former Rock
Islander. Who the suspect is cannot
be ascertained, but the sleuths believe
they will have him in the tolls before
many days.
Another CIew.
The robbery ut Maple Grove was
one of the boldest in the history of
the west. Thousands of dollars were
secured, just how much will probably
never be known. The country has
been secured in search of the perpe-
traitors of the crime. One of the
latest clews led the detectives to
Woodstock, ILL.,. on the trail of a
farmer named Riley, copy of the
Woodstock Plaindealer addressed to
him having been found ut a lunch
counter near the scene of the robbery.
He was absent from his home on the
night of the holdup. He afterward
returned, but was away when the de-
tectives called ut his home.

To the coffee drinker. Coffee drink

1t is almost like coffee, but the effects
are just the opposite. Coffee upsets
the stomach, ruins the digestion, af-
fects the heart and disturbs the whole

the stomach, aids digestion and
strengthens the nerves. There is
nothing but nourishment in Grain-O.
