SATURDAY NIGHT
HOLO-UPS CAUGHT

The highwaymen whose activities
Saturday evening started a small
sized panic among mauy who had
yet TO return to their outlying homes.
have been captured and have cor
iessed To their crimes.
One OF the men is a Cherokee In
dian by the name OF Bill Rio and his
companion is Frank Bell. negro.
he arrests were made by PatrolmaL
Derrick
Bell was the first man arrested and
he was then under the influence OF
tquor. having FASTENED 10 the near
est saloon as soon as a division OF
the loot from their first victim had
been made.
The Cherokee evidently started out
on a lone hunt Tor more plumber aft
CT separating from Bell, and within
few minutes encountered a young man
/ ear Twenty-fOurth street, who pluck
lily snatched away his revolver anl
le gan swapping It at his retreatinc
form. II was not loag before the In
dian was gathered In and within an
hour he had made a confession. He
was also anxious to make arrange
ments for returning the money to his
victims with Il view OF being released
as soon as restitution had been
made.
The gun which the young man Sc
cured from the highwayman was eX-
hIbited at the police station and
proved to be about the poorest eN-
cuse for deadly weapon that has
turned up In Ogden Tor MANY day,
It - al cir
and go rusted that It could not only
bC loaded, but would battle the most
expert gun man TO discharge II. why
the fellow ran away from the harm
less weapon can only be explained on
the suppositlon that his would-be vic
tim might throw II at him.
Bell and Rio claimed TO be broth
ers Immediately after their arrest, but
after the police had gotten them thor
oughly anSered at each other the truth
was soon forthcoming The Cherokee
was told that his partner. Bell. had
said that he was a common blanket
Indian from the reservation and could
hardly speak English. This so en-
ragged the fellow that he immediate
lv denied that they were brothers an!
admitted number OF things when
the police were anxious TO learn.
Bell was then told that the Chero-
kee had informed them that he was
nothing but a nO-'count niger and
that he had tried to cop the entire
amount OF money taken from the VIC
tins. The colored highwaymen i'm
medlately became incensed at his
former pal and declared that he had
given the Indian 81 out Of the 81
which they had secured from Lough-
gren. the insurance man, whom they
robbed at the Utah National bank
corner.
The men will be kept apart until
their arralgnment ON the charge ol
highway robbery.
Much credit is due Patrolman Her
rick Tor his lucky capture of both
men. They we're apprehended In
Electric alley about an hour apart
each evidently having made for q sa-
loon as soon as they nad obtained a
few dollars for drink. The police
state that they saw both men in a
Twenty-ffth street saloon about an
hour before the first hold-up and that
ore OF them was slightly Intoxicated
a. the time. They advised the fellow
to 20 home and requested his pal TO
see that he followed the advice. They
left the saloon and We're not seen
again until the first hod-up.
