HASTINGS, Neb., April 27.-(Special Tel

here today to see and hear President Roose-
welt a gang OF pickpockets infested the
city. Among the victims relieved Of cash
were William Walters Of %Saronville, who
had $35 stolen with his pocketbook and
some valuable papers. George Stanton of
Hastings was also touched for So. A short
time after the presidents address, William
Kerr, president of the Adams County bank,
discovered that he was minus his diamond
shirt stud. which was valued at 5000. The
largest haul that was made by the thieves
was taken from Father Mcdonald Of st.
Cecilia's church Of this city and amounted
to $500 or more. Father Mcdonald had in
his possession $500 in checks belonging to
the estate of the late James Stack, whose
funeral sermon Father Mcdonald preached
this afternoon. These checks had all been
endorsed and turned over to the priest,
who was to keep them until after the flu
neral and then divide the money among
the immediate relatives. The priest put
the checks, with some OF his own, in a
large pocketbook which he carried in his
hip pocket and remembers distinctly OF
feeling the purse on his person shortly
before entering the big crowd gathered
about the court house, where President
Roosevelt spoke. That is the last trace he
has of it. All local banks have been noti-
fed to stop payment Of the checks.
