BANK ROBBERY SUSPECTS
The Two Men Arrested at Toulon
 Ill.,, For the Peoria Job.
They Were Armed and Had the Proceeds of the Robbery in
 Their Possession.

Peoria, H., Dec. 13.-The arrest of two men at Toulon as suspects of the robbery of the Peoria national bank, Saturday noon, reveals to the public. that the booty was much greater than was announced at the bank after the bold raid.
 The men, now partially identified as Edward Otgon and Reddie Lutze, both of whom have criminal records, aeording to the Chicago police. had S1 .9S0 in their possession. Although no new statement has been made by the bank since Saturday that $560 was taken, Sheriff Potter of this city re- earded the finding of the money as strong elew to the identity of the men.
 Suspicion was first attached to the men arrested when they hired buggy at Russells livery state in Wyoming early Sunday morning. They asked to be taken to Toulon, saying they would go to Robert Greens livery stable there.
 Russell telephoned to Green, who notified Sheriff Thomas Malone of the suspicious character of his expected customers.
 Malone and two deputies were wait ing when the men appeared. They an- swered the descriptions so we'll that they were arrested. Neither of the men were at all suspicious until the command hands up was given, and they faced three revolvers in the hands of the officers.
 They quietly submitted to a search. and three revolvers and the cash was brought to Peoria for positive identi- fication. The money in itself will be a strong clew, as the bank cashier has the numbers of many of the bills. |

THEIR SENTENCES
 ARE ALL AFFIRMED
United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals AffifmS Judgement for
 Naturalization Frauds.
PETITION FOR 4 NEW HEARING
 DENIED BY COURT AT ST. PAUL.
Expected That the Defendants. Thomas F.. Barrett, John F. DOian and Frank F.. Garrett, of St. Louis. Will Carry the Case to the United states Supreme Court.

St. Louis, Dec 13.-The United States circuit court of appeals, sitting at St Paul. Minn., announced. Mon day, it's refusal of a new hearing to Thomas E. Barrett, John P. Dolan and Frank E. Garrett. convicted in the United States district court in St. Louis of naturalization frauds.
 The announcement of the refusal. which was not accompanied by a written opinion of the court, was re- eeived by United States court officials in St. Louis Monday.
 It is expected that the defendants will carry the ease to the United States supreme court by habeas corpus pre- ceedings or writ of certiorari, al though no announcement to that effect has been made.
 Dolan and Garrett were convicted November l, 1903, and Barrett was convicted December following. Each was sentenced to pay a fine of 1000 and to imprisonment in the Missouri penitentiary for five years.
 The petition for a rehearing alleged errors in the trial, The decision of the court of appeals sustains the dis tIict court.
 Barrett is former marshal of the St. Louis court of appeals. Dolan is for mer chairman of the Democratic city central committee and Garrett was a patrolman, walking a beat in Dolan' s ward, the Twenty-fourth.
 The evidence was to the effect that bogus naturalization papers, secured through Barrett, were sent by Dolan, with Garrett as intermediary, to John Barbaglia for distribution among resi- dents of 'Dago Hill.'
 Barbaglia, who had previously been convicted, and who furnished some of the most important evidence, was par doned by President Roosevelt on the showing that he was simply the tool of those higher up in the work of bogus naturalization.

Cotton Slump Caused Losses.

The recent dump of SIP a bale in the price of cotton is estimated to have cost Arkansas operators more than S2000,000 The farmers were not seriously hurt, as about three fourths of the entire crop had been eold. but the country bankers and merchants were the ones who caught the full force of the blow The coun- try banks have been loaning money on cotton on a basis of cents, when the price was 10 cents. The bottom dropped out of the market and the price went 10 seven and half cents, which squeezed the banks unless they had l.aen wise enough to call for ad. ditional margins before the drop.

Hooker Is Physical Wreck.

Houston Hooker, the slayer of Con duetor Atwood, is again safely behind the bars of the Garland county jail. He is a wreck and horrible death is seeking him out regardless of any delays of law He covers in his soli- tary cell, quaking at every noise and trembling with personal fear if not with remorse for his awful crime. It Is very doubtful whether his awful existence would continue much longer than the time of his trial. which will take place here in January. but his crime is meting out a punishment as terrible as was ever devised in the inquisition. Some mighty power of retributive justice has marked him for it's merciless victim and lashes his brain with burning scourges every moment.
