OF B OIL D
ROBBERS
BROUGHT TO SUDDEN END BY
COUNCILMAN WILSON.
Merry Fight of the Wilson Brothers
Ends in the Subduing Of
One Of the Bandits.

Saturday night, at about . o'clock,
two men, with their faces masked
with handkerchiefs. entered the store
of Wilson Brothers at $50 West Twen-
tv-eighth street and ordered those In
the store to throw up their hands.
City Councilman George Wilson. and
his brother Thomas, proprietor5 OF the
place. a clerk. Clarence Titc. and two
customers were in the store at the
time the order Throw up your hands
was given. The customers. man and Il
woman. soon made their exit, leaving
The boys behind the counter TO fight
the battle that soon followed.
The fight commenced when one OF
the robbers fired a shot over the
head OF Tom Wilson who. in return
for the salutation. hurled four-pou1d
counter.woight at the fellow. striking
him fairly in the jaw and telling him
TO the floor. George Wilson. seeing
tho advantage gained by the daring
stroke OF his brother rushed from
his desk and grappled with the man.
Tom soon took part in the scuffle

few inches OF Wilson head and bury
ing itself In the wall At this mo.
ment George Wilson rushed up from
behind and knocked Watterson TO the
floor.
Fight for Revolver.
The two men scuffled for the pos
session of the revolver for few sec
onds. George Wilson finally got pos
session OF it and rained a number Of
blows on Watterson' head which SO
stunned him that he was easily over
powered By the other Wilson and Tite,
who came to the rescue. Seeing that
his pal had been captured. the other
highwayman dashed through the front
door and made his escape.
IA call was sent TO the police sta
tion and Captain Brown and Detect
i've Pcnder of the police department,
with Deputy Sheriff Murphy. drove TO
the store in the patrol wagon. Wat
terson. who had been beaten into sub
misSiveness, was turned over TO the
officers and locked In the city Jail.
At the police station he was search
ed and a return ticket to Salt Lake
over the Salt Lake & Ogden railroad
was found In his possession, showing
the date of issuance TO be Novem-
er 10.
Prisoner Badly Beaten.
Watterson wasso badly injured when
he reached the station that II was Inn
possible to otain n coherent statement
from him He told the police. how
ever. that his home Is In Butte. but
that he came to Utah several weeks
ago from New Mexico.
Local officers are inclined TO believe
the two men who attempted the dar-
Ing hold-up are responsible for num-
erous burglaries and hold-ups In Salt
Lake during the past two weeks. An
effort will be made TO identity the two
men by descriptions obtained from
the Salt Lake police.
When asked about the affair last
night. Councilman George Wilson said
that he believes that Watterson was
the only one OF tho would-5e robbers
who was armed. Luckily his weapon
contained but one cartridge which was

companion OF the robber who got the
blow in the jaw, made his getaway
by the front door-he was In the act
of taking the money from the till

man gave the name of Egbert Wat

The other desperate has not been
captured. The officers are of the
opinion that the fellow took a train
out of the city Immediately after the
attempted robbery.
Watterson today is feeling little
sore" at the Wilson's for giving him
such a sold reception but is inclined
to take the affair in "matter-ot-fact
