CROOKS ROUNDED UP
Gang of Supposed Professionals
Captured While Attempting a
Burglary This Morning.

/ A gang of we'll known crooks was
/ kept under the surveillance of the off,
GERS last night and about o'clock this
morning was caught in an attempt to
! enter the / y. L. furniture store on
! Second South street.
/ The gang had aroused the suspicious
/ Of the officers by their actions. Last
night several Of the crowd were cor
rallied by various officers throughout the
city and led the officers to a room which
| they claimed as their own on Third
South street The room, according to
the officers, is filed with burglars tools
and other implements Of crimes. Two
of the officers kept a close watch upon
the men and following them along Sec
Ord South street observed them dodge
in @ an alley. Following them to the
rear of the l. Y. L. store they found a
board raised to a window above the
ground and the men in the act Of gain
ing entrance to the establishment. They
had already succeeded in filing away
the screens which are used as a pro-
lection on the outside of the window
anu NCAC dbDuA ~ sam emu ante when
the officers arrived and placed them I'M
der arrest and marched them to head
quarters. The charge Of vagrancy was
placed against them and the act of
trying to commit robbery will be
brought out in the trial this afternoon.
The majority of the gang are ex-
convicts and the officers are confident
that they have secured a bunch of the
crooks that have been making the city
lively for the past few weeks with
petty thefts and robberies. One of the
crowd, Lee Sherman who gave the
name Of John Wilson to the officers. is
a 1S-year-Old boy who has been en-
ployed as a bootblack at the Leadville
house and is said to have been an un-
willing participant in the evenings
events.
The others gave the names of Roy
Gresham. Gus Kenny. John Lynn
and Mike Lyons. The officers
put the boy through severe
course of cross-questiouing in the
hope that he would divulge some Of the
other crimes that the men have been
implicated in. He refused to give anv
information whatever and discIaimed
that he knew the men at all.
