Description of Criminal Shot In
Biloxi TaIIies With That
of Man Wanted
HAD BULLET HOLE
THROUGH HIS HAT
Carried Two Pistols, an Electric Ian.
tern and Package of Cayenne
Pepper-Officers Are Still
Working On Case.

A white man, the supposed assassin
CT officer w. A. Smith, who was sh Of
on Avenue E, between Fifteenth and
Sixteenth streets about four weeks
last Thursday night by the police there.
For several weeks Chief Bodeker has
been trying to locate a man whom ne
believed to have been the one who shot
md almost instantly killed Officer Smith.
This man was traced to various parts
of the city but was not apprehe ended
The officers being unable to spot him
exactly. Several days ago he disap
peared altogether, and Saturday night
Chief Bodeker received word from the
Biloxi authorities stating that a burg
lar had been killed by the officers There
and sent an incomplete description of
the deceased man to the authorities
here.
Chief Bodeker became interested and
wired for a more complete description.
He received a letter from Chief of
Police Stacking of Biloxi yesterday.
and the description of the man is den
teal to that of the man whom the Of
ficers here have been trying to appre-
bend. The man was shot in Biloxi
while he was attempting to burglarize
house. His personal effects would
indicate that he was thoroughbred
criminal. Among the articles taken
from his pockets were an electric Ian
tern, two Smith & Wesson revolvers
and a package of cayenne pepper,
which. it is supposed, he carried to
scatter behind him in case dogs were
put on his trail.
The man whom the Birmingham Of
ficers have been trying to catch is
known to have carried two Smith 4
Wesson revolvers and the clothes which
the man Killed in Biloxi is described
as having worn were like those worn
by the man wanted here An interest
ing detail is the fact that the dead
mans hat had bullet hole in it, whict.
It is thought, might have been ma de
by bullet from Officer Byers' pistol.
Officer Byers was with Smith at tho
time he was killed and states that he
shot several times at the man who
killed Smith. Chief Bodeker will in
vestigate facts further in order to as
;ertain whether or not the man shot
in Biloxi is the man wanted here.
The shooting of officer Smith is still
mixed up affair. Officer ]. ]. Byer.s,
who was with Smith at the time ha
was killed, is in JAIL charged with the
murder of his fellow officer. while the
police are, or have been, out after a
man who is supposed to have done the

ANOTHER TURN
IN TRAUB CASE
Trustee of Bankrupt Estate Sues To
Recover On Cash Surrender Value
of Life Insurance.

Whether mans life insurance policy
can be forcibly turned over to his bank
rupt estate for the benefit of his cred
itors will be tested in the Jacob Traub
bankruptcy case. A suit was filed in the
city court yesterday by E. G. Chandler,
trustee of the estate, against Jacob
Traub, his wife, Minnie Traub; New York
Life Insurance company, Mutual Life In
surance company, Equitable Life Assur-
ance company and the Home Life Insur-
ance company for policies carried by ia
cob Traub on his life
Jacob Traub operated a store on Third
avenue and went into bankruptcy on Oc-
tober 81, 1907, and the suit filed by Chan
dler is based on section 70, subdivision g.,
of the bankrupt statutes. It is alleged
that Traub carried a policy for $4,000 in
the New York Life Insurance company;
another in the Mutual Life Insurance
company, with cash surrender value of
$780, and also large policies in the other
two companies.
The plaintiff AYERS that the defendant
did few months before going into bank
ruptcy and with a knowledge that he was
to become bankrupt, transfer these poll
cies so that Minnie Traub became the
beneficiary, and prays that Traub be
either required to turn over to Chandler,
as trustee, a sum equal to the cash sur
render value of the policies or that the
policies be turned over to him so that
he can cash them for the benefit of the
creditors.
The Jacob Traub bankruptcy case has
attracted any amount of attention since
the petition in bankruptcy was filed last
October, owing to the number of unusual
legal points that have come up in it.

order to save the head of prime minis
