The operations of the secret service
related up to this point had covered
months. | was determined to do the
work so thoroughly there would be no
chance of its coming to naught in the
courts, as so many efforts to settle Old
Fred Biebush' had done. Thielen. Sui
livan. Hargate. Evans, Mrs. Welch and
the others were shadowed or ''piped !" in
the yernacular of the department. with
some good results. A continued watch
was kept on Bosses place. This sur
veillance, for one thing, resulted in our
catching Evans and the Welch woman
passing counterfeit money in small
amounts. | was thoroughly satisfied
this money came from dies made by
Hargate, and. for the purpose of PROV
ing it, caused the arrest of Evans and
Mrs. Welch and tried hard to get them
to tell where they got their supply of
money. Although they were the small
est ducks in the Biebush puddle. they
stubbornly refused to give any informa-
ton whatever as to where their sup
plies came from. The system of pip
ing" also revealed the fact that Hargate
was handling 25 and 5O-cent pieces only.
So far as the minor members of the
ring were concerned. the net was being
drawn around them in a satisfactory
way, but Biebush was still well outside
of it, The solution of this great diff
Guilty at last came through Whalen,
who, after being enlisted on our side,
one day met in Bosses saloon a stranger
from southeast Missouri. The two be-
came well acquainted, the stranger con-
fiding his criminal history and desire to
handle 'ccncy." 1t is unnecessary here
to relate the details of the deal which
was consummated between Whaen and
the stranger. whereby the latter was
to rope" Biebush. Suffice it to say that
this deal was carried to a successful
close. the wary Biebush at last being
drawn into the net he had seduously
avoided for so long

Mitchell had formed the acquaintance
of a fellow convict named Thomas.
who was doing time for the theft Of
harness. Thomas had told Mitchell that
he combined preaching with larceny
and mixed the duties of singing reyiv-
alist with those of "koniacker." Sub
sequently Mitchell had carried written
communications from Biebush to
Thomas, and the latter, Mi tchell said
was then in ST. Louis following his in
congruous occupations of saving souls
and passing bad money.
But little time was required to To-
cate Thomas. A man answering our
description of him was found to be
preaching at the Methodist church at
Morgan and Twenty-fourth streets. To
an appearances Rev. Andrew Jackson
Thomas sometimes known as Austin
j. IhOmaD was q sincere preacher and
was doing good work I'm the vineyard.
