TWO GIRLS
CHARGED WITH
R0bB|NC HOUSE
Mere Tots Arrested in Phoenix
in Connection With Case
That Has Been Pulling the
Police.

PHOENIX, Sept. district Attor-
ney Bullard and Justice tombstone
have begun searching preliminary
examination into the robbery of the
home of Mr. and Mrs. j. w. Cover
dale. which was discovered to have
been entered during the absence of
the family. While many are suspect
ed of having been implicated, two lit
tie daughtrs Of Mr.. and Mrs. Wiley
Coleman and a youth named George
Williams are all who have been ar
rested
The home Of the Coverdales is stu
ated northwest of the city. on the
north side of the town ditch ID. G..
Coyerdale, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Cow
erdale, made an investigation, having
been told that some girls had been
seen around the house. He saw that
everything inside had been torn up
and after summoning Deputy Sheriff
Jeff Adams, a closer examination
was made 1t was found that about
81, 900 worth of goods had been stolen.
The deputy worked upon the case.
and finally came to the conclusion that
the two little Coleman girls, who live
at 1922 East Washington street, knew
something of the matter. A search
warrant was issued by Justice John
stone, and about $500 worth of the
goods were found In the Coleman
home and taken away in an express
wagon They consisted of every
kind of household goods. clothihs and
bric-a-brac. There was some jewelry.
consisting Of two stick pins, four
rings. six brooches and three hatpins
The Coleman girls were taken to
the sheriff's Office, but they stuck UNI
compromisingiy to one story. They
said that another little girl. named
Delight DuBess. had given them the
stuff. They said she had taken them
to the Coverdale house and shown
them some big boxes. telling them
that everything in them was theirs.
They declared that the DuBess girl
had told them the things belonged to
her dead sister. and that her parents
did not care to keep them or sell
them
The little DuBess. girl was located
at the camp meeting grounds with her
parents. She denied the story abso-
lutely She said that she was scarce
~ on speaking terms with the Cole
man girls She had no dead sister and
most certainly had told no one TO car
Try anything away from the Coverdale
house 1t was impossible to credit
ner denial. though another little girl,
said to be a constant companion of
the Colemans, corroborated their sto-
~. Mr.. and Mrs. Coleman said that
they had asked no questions when 50
many household goods were brought
TO their home. They had accepted
the story of the DuBess girls gift
without question. But Deputy Adams
was puzzled to explain how two frail
little girls had carried so much stun
from one house to the other.
Later youth named George VII
liams was arrested, charged with be,
ing implicated in the robbery. Eyi
dence has been obtained to show that
be spent a great deal of time with
the Coleman children.

GUARDING OUR MONEY,
WATCHERS DAY AND NIGHT
How the Treasury Vaults at
Washington Are Protected.

Not a dollar has ever been taken
from the United Sites treasury by
force.
Perhaps the nearest approach to
looting the vaults of the treasury was
the time Martin Broadfoot had his
plans about perfected. This was back
in the eighties, and the plan was to
get into the building by means of the
great sewer which runs under and
near the treasury and is known as the
Fifteenth street sewer and which
grows larger as it enters the Potomac
about three quarters OF a mile from
the White House.
Brcadfoots plan, as developed after
his arrest, was 20 get into the build
ing crack the safes and place the mon
ey IN large rubber bags and float them
down the sewer TO the Potomac, where
his pals would be in waiting. These
bags we're found in his room when ae
was arrested, and secret service men
had often seen him walking along the
shores OF tn Potomac near where the
big sewer empties. This sewer "
about nine feet in diameter where it
passes the treasury. A man could
through a stream Of water which I'M
der normal conditions is only about
twelve inches deep. By entering the
sewer tunnel at the river the jour
ney to tn treasury could be made by
keeping a sharp lookout When the
man or men in the sewer reached tat.
Fifteenth street sewer nothing would
separate them from the gold coin and
bullion except about eighteen feet Of
earth and a not too secure stone wall
II was Broadfoot's scheme to dig his
way through this obstruction and to
let the earth float or wash down the
sewer. Il would not have taken one
man more than two weeks, working
only at night, ito have made an open
| ing large enough for a man to crawl
through. OF course Broadfoot knew
the exact location OF the vaults, and
when he once reached them he would
have had no trouble in getting he gold
coin and bullion. It was evidently his
purpose to al the rubber bags with
tie precious stuff and float them down
the sewer TO the river, where they
would be looked after by his confed-
crates. This was the only really well
! laid plot ever made to loot the treas
ury. aad Just why Broadfoot was
never given trial has never been
known TO the public. He was an intel
fgeut man. and suspicion was first
aroused against aim by his frequent
visits to the money rooms and vaults
and by questions he asked watch
men and messengers as to the hours

JESSE POMEROY, BOY H|END, HAS
BEEN IN JAIL TH|RTY-ONE YEARS

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 7.-Jessie
Pomeroy, one of the most notorious
life prisoners in the United States, to-
morrow will enter upon the thirty-sec-
ond year of his confinement behind
the gray walls of the famous state
prison in Charlestown All of these
years have been passed in solitary
confinement.
When he was fourteen years old
Pomeroy was sentenced to prison for
life for torturing and numbering little
children. He is now forty-eight years
old and looks to be much older. De-
spite his long Incarceration, he appar-
emily still has hopes of a pardon, al
though he has never been given the
slightest encouragement.
In the early '70's Jesse Pomeroy
and his crimes were discussed from
one end of the country TO the other
Boston and vicinity were In a state of
terror, when one small child after an
other was discovered horribly beaten
and no clew TO the perpetrator of the
monstrous cruelties could be found.
On the day after Christmas, 1871,
child named Paine, living in Chel-
sea, was found unconscious, tied to a
beam On Powder Horn hill His en-
tireiy nude body was covered with
great welts. When he recovered his
irate father and the police learned
that he had met an older boy. who
had LED him away from the public
street, aud had then, in spite of his
weak protests, taken of his clothes
and struck him again and again with
a rope.
Before the general excitement over
this mysterious assault had died
away, another little boy, named Tracy
Hayden, was found IN an out-of-the-
way lot. stripped, and tied by ropes to
a board His front teeth were miss
ing. the bridge of his nose was broken,
and on other parts of his body were
score OF bruises. The child told a
tale similar 10 that related by the first
lad who had been assaulted.
This second dastardly assault in
famed the whole community Il was
argued that 10 person OF ordinary or
yiscious instincts could have commit
ted such wanton cruelties. The as
saults we're clearly the work of a de-
generate Fathers throughout Chel-
sea and South Boston wished to burn
him at the stake. Mothers. when their
children were long absent from home,
became hysterical.
For three months thereafter no
further assaults of this nature were
reported, and families began to
breathe easier But one day in early
July, 1872. Johnny Balch, boy Of i've
years, returned to his home IN South
Boston on the verge Of delirium and
commissions. Two hours before he
said he had met an older boy who Of
fered him candy and then took him to
a secluded spot where he stripped him,
Bisbee daily review. [volume] (Bisbee, Ariz.) 1901-1971, 1908-09-08

such questions. That he could have
successfully carried out his plans so
far as getting into the building and
the vaults are concerned there is no
question. for men have been in the
sewer and conduits who say that 1t
would have been easy work. The
most difficult part of the job would
have been in getting away with the
money and bullion. for 1t would have
required hard work to secure II and
get away About the only chance
would have been to bury 1t somewhere
in Virginia, for II it had been placed
OF boats 1t would have been easy to
recover 1t.
1t is the opinion OF the secret ser
vice men that many celebrated cracks
men have from time to time conten-
plated the conversion of a few mill
ion treasury notes to their own use,
but after careful study they have de-
cided that the undertaking was too
colossal In character Secretary Fol-
ger when he assumed his duties was
not slow in deciding that the treasury
was not properly and safely guarded.
There was not an electric alarm in
olated and had no facilities for call
ing help, and the safes were OF the
cid time lock and key sort, scattered
almost all over the big building. The
secretary went to work TO bring about
a proper condition OF affairs. He had
the watch system completely changed
and reorganized, putting them under
the strictest discipline Elaborate
and extensive alarm systems were in
stalled The old safes were replaced
by modern steel affairs with time
locks and intricate combinations. The
| gold and silver vaults were fitted with
steel castings and time locks, differ
/ ent parts of the combinations being
distributed among various officials,
so that the vault could be opened
only with the concerted action of all
Of them. and then only at the stroke
of the hour for which the time locks
had been set. But without a perfect
system of watchmen to guard the
safes the treasury could be easily
robbed, for the most perfect safe ever
made is not proof against the profes-
SIGNALS.
The watch force OF the treasury is
perfectly organized and the least in.
fraction Of rules means Iayof OF dis
charge. The men seem to realize the
heavy responsibilities resting upon
them. and they are careful almost to q
fault The watch is divided into three
reliefs. the tour OF duty lasting for
eight hours. However. the watch does
not anticipate an attack by robbers
but they are prepared for any emer
gency. and they win not be caught
mapping should one ever be made
either at night or by day. Each watch
man is a regular walking arsenal, and
the instructions are to shoot. and
shoot TO kill.--I4os Angeles Times.
