An Important Capture of CROOKS.

Toledo, O.-An important arrest
was made here Tuesday night
when Marion Kelley, of national noto-
riety and two men thought to be
members of the gang which for two
years has kept the banks of Ohio in a
state of fear, were gathered in by de.
tectives. Kelley is wanted for a big
robbery at Bainbridge last January.
James Donohue and John Griffin, the
other men, were taken because they
showed thmselves accomplices by try
ing to murder Detectives Delehanty
and Welsh while they were taking
Kelley out of a saloon.
