ANNOUNCEMENT OF. ARREST
SENDS MEN TO COVER.
HAD ONE OF GANG LOCATED
Great Northern Officials Believe Train
Robbers Will Ultimately Be
Caught.

st. Paul, Oct. 16.-The capture Of
the bandits who held up the Great
Northern overland express at Wagner,
Mont, July 8, and securing $3.50
in bank notes, the officials of the
Great Northern Express company say
has been seriously delayed by the an
nouncement of the capture, at Nash
vile, of Annie Rogers, Alias Maude
Williams, supposed to be connected
with the gang. Before her arrest the
Pinkerton agency and police officers
had laid plans which seemed to as
sure the speedy capture of the rob-
bers.
Vice President and General Manag-
er Elliot Of the express company said
today that n further news had been
received at headquarters and that he
did not look for the immediate arrest
of the gang.
s'This woman according to my ad-
vices,' Mr. Elliot said, was in com
munication with one Of the robbers at
New Orleans. When that man read
the account of her capture in this
mornings papers, he probably disap-
peared at once If her arrest had not
been made public we would probably
have secured him and perhaps the
rest of the men. Their capture will
probably come sooner or later, but it
has been delayed.
The published account of the ar
rest of the Rogers oma is correct.
She walked into the bank and asked
to exchange part of the stolen notes
for others Of larger denominations.
She was of course arrested at once
Mr.. Elliot says that the express
company does not know how the ban
dts escaped from the mountains south
of Wagner while pursued, nor what
their movements since have been.
Identification made at the time, he
says, has been substantiated. Train
men on the overland have identified
photographs of the suspected men as
pictures of the robbers.
