Milwaukee, Wis.,, Oct. "A bold
attempt to extort $40, 900 from the
family of Richard T. Robinson, a
millionaire of Racine, Wis, and part
owner of the j. 1. Case Threshing
Machine company of that city, was
frustrated when Frederick G. Stock
ing, salesman, "a years of age, and
H. D. Miller, an assistant cashier,
were arrested here. The plot to ex-
tort the money from the Robinson
family was conceived by Stocking,
the police say, Miller was drawn into
the game by promises of a share in
the money.
On September 10 Mrs. Jennette
Bull Robinson, daughter of S. J.
Bull, received an unsigned letter de-
handing that the sum of $40, 200 be
placed in the First National bank,
Chicago, before the following Friday
which was September 81.
Violence was threatened to Mrs.
Robinson in case the demand was not
met. The bank officials we're to be
instructed to deliver the money when
Luther Roman" presented a slip
bearing the same name.
The First National bank of Chica.
go received communication ordering
it to transfer the $40, 600 left with
it by Mrs. Robinson to a Milwaukee
bank. These letters were given to
the police, and upon comparison it
was found that the writing was iden-
teal. Careful investigation revealed
the connection of Stocking with the
affair, and the arrests followed.
