Thief Steals $4,000 from
Sioux Cityan, but is Caught

c, F. Morris, a real estate man OF Sioux
City, saved himself from a 5000 theft in
Omaha at the hands Of pair of smooth
piekpockets.
The thieves took his pocketbook, but he
missed It before they could get away, gave
the alarm by rushing after the thief who
had his money, and starting q chase that
attracted the attention OF 500 persons on
FarnAn street, resulted In the capture OF
one OF the pickpOckets and the finding OF
the pocketbOok in an old shoe at the fruit
store OF c. Gonella at $40 South Thirteenth
street. The second thief made his escape.
Mr.. Morris left the Paxton hotel shortly
before noon TO take a street car for South
Omaha Just ahead OF him as he was
getting on the car he noticed a large man
who purposely blocked the way. This
mans actions aroused the Sioux City visi-
tors suspicion and he glanced behind, TO
see another man very close 70 him in the
act OF putting something IN his pocket
Mr.. Norris, as II by instinct. at once felt
for his pocketboOk and found it was miss
ing.
Then he leaped from the car after the
man on the pavement and chased him
across the street to the corner in front OF
the Rock Island railroad offices. Here he

neck. The thief ran on without striking
back and dodged down the alley between
Farnam and Harney and ran east to Thir-
teenth street
BY this time a large crowd was following
down the alley In pursuit and the thief
ran into the fruit store Of c. Gonella, slO
South Thirteenth street The proprietor
was not in and the fellow picked up an
old shoe into which he placed the wallet
he had taken from Mr.. Morris.
After this he ran out OF the store and
started north. A crowd Of fifty men and
boys he held at bay there by making a
pretense AZ drawing a gun. Just as he
started TO move away some boy in the
crowd hurled large stone at him and
brought him to the ground. A big negro
ran up and caught hold OF the thief and
held him until the police arrived
The pocketbook IN the fruit store was
found by Detective AalOney a few min
utes after the thief was captured. Il con-
tained a check on Sioux City bank for
$500 and about 500 IN currency
AT the police station the thief Kays his
name OF Thomas Aaher of St Joseph, No.
He refused to say anything regarding his
pal. The detectives are now hunting the
second man. II is supposed he escaped by
going west on Farnam while Maher was
being chased.

CUNSHOT EXPERT ON STAND
DR.. Schaeffer Says Lieutenant Sutton
Could Not Have Shot Himself.
SKULLS PART OF THE EXHIBIT
Sergeant Todd Testifies as 20 Seeing
Man Running and Hearing Call
to Halt, After which Four
shots Were Fired.

ANNAPOLIS. Nd. . II fl-,A gFlssome
feature was this afternoon introduced in
the proceeding in the court OF inquiry
into the death of Lieutenant James N.
Sutton, jr., of the United States Marine
corps, when the legal repre- sentative of
Mrs. Sutton, the mother Of the dead lieu
tenant. brought to the witness stand DR..
Edward NJ. Schaeffer of Washington, an
expert on gunshot wounds.
The people in the room, spectators and
interested parties alike. crowded around
the table and gazed with the keenest in
terest upon the doctor while he placed
upon the table glistening skulls TO the ex-
terror OF one which he affixed, in little
Inns of wax, steel rods intended to indi-
cate to the members of the court the
course of the bullet in the skull Of Lieu
tenant Sutton Lieutenant Adams had
given a dramatic illustration OF the po-
siton Of Lieutenant Sutton when the fatal
shot was fired. The doctor was equally
dramatic as he stretched himself upon the
table and showed by pantomime how, in
his opinion as an expert, 1t was quite i'm
possible that Lieutenant Sutton could ever
have fired into his own head the shot that
put an end to bis life.
One OF the points which the witness
dwelt upon with considerable stress was
the impossibility of Lieutenant Sutton
being able, under the circumstance de-
scribed in the testimony, TO exert suf-
ficient pull on the trigger of the revolver
to bring down the hammer OF the weapon
upon the cartridge. CHASTITY skulls and
a flow OF technical terms that kept the
official stenograpbers busy asking for
repetition were much in evidence during
the afternoon and up TO the time when
court adjourned. DR.. Schaeffer was still
