Olinger became violently insane on a
Chicago & Alton train coming from
Kansas City and was taken in charge
at Mason City, ILL.,. by the sheriff and
brought here. He was In the same
seat With Fay when the latter was
killed BY the robber and the scene runs
in his memory.
0linger is rational at times. but
when his mind reSerts to the robbery
he loses all control of himself and is
apparently overcome by fear. He
says the robbers sfiot at him several
times and there Is big bullet hole in

Mrs Mary j. Gibson, has him under
her care, taking him from the CRY au-
