SEN to him by Officer Burns, one OF
the men who arrested him, had told
everything Hammond told him to the
officers, the officers thus learning
much more than they would have 9th
erwise. Hammond said that he and
his partner had cached papers worth
over $50, 900 to the Northern Pacific
and that they would receive them az
ter Hammond had received his sen
tence. and if he got the limit they
would never get them.
w. ]. McFetridge, special agent OF
the Northern Pacific, was told OF the
denial of Hammond that the man
Cristie was the mar who helped him
hold up the train at Bearmouth on
the night of June 16. In contradiction
of the denial of Hammond, Mr.. Nc
Fetridge said:
"After Hammond was arrested in
Spokane he made a full confession to
the officers and acknowledged that
Cristie was the man who helped him
hold up the train. The day after
Hammond was arrested we knew the
right name of Hammond's partner and
where his home was. When Cristie
left Spokane he went to Hope, N. D.
He stayed long enough to get his wife
and then they went to Minneapolis.
| He started to go to Canada from Min
neapolis, but instead went to Hope,
where he was arrested. AS soon as
Cristie arrives he will go out with the
officers and show them whatever plum
der he and Hammond have hidden.
| However, the parers which it is re-
ported are still in the hands of Ham
mond and which have been said to be
valuable are not worth so cents to
the company, being for the most part
cancelled money orders. The North
ern Pacific railroad has never promis'
ed Hammond a thing. The officers
will arrive in Philipsburg Sunday
morning with Cristie. .

Helena, Mont, Aug. 4.-The cap
ture of Cristie, Hammond's partner,
was made entirely by secret service
department of the Northern Pacific,
and a special agent.
When George Hammond, who rob-

that it was reported that Cristie had

mond said that they might have got
the Cristie who associated with Ham
mond before his arrest in Spokane,
but he was positive that they did not
get the man who was his partner in
the Bearmouth robbery.
Asked as to what had become of the
nan who held up the train, Hammond
said he had gone to Canada, and he
knew this to be a fact.
This was all the information that
Hammond would divulge about his
partner, saying that he had never
played the traitor yet and would moi
squeal on his partner now. He Their
went on to say that Mr.. McFetridgs
of the Northern Pacific had brough'
identification papers for him to sigr
as to the description of his partner
but he had refused to do so. Whel
told that some diamonds had beef
found on Cristie, Hammond said tina
he did not believe a word of it, an.
further that he did not believe tina
he had been captured at all.
