is CREDITED WITH
NUMBER OF GRIMES
Believed to Have knowledge
of Three Milton Robberies,
and Centerville and Cam
bridge Crimes.

Earl Dubois who left Milton follow
ing the robberies at the F. M. Jones
and Co., and the Lantz stores, last De-
cember, was captured at Detroit Sat
urday night, just after he had crossed
from Canada, where he had been in
hiding, to meet a Connersville woman,
who is known as his wife. He will be
returned Tuesday to Wayne county in
custody of Marshal Dan Drischel of
Cambridge City, who located the man.
and will be placed in the county Jail to
answer the charge of burglary.
Mis- accomplice, Guy Gunsaulia, is
now serving ten to twenty year SEN
tence in Michigan City penitentiary,
and the officials expect to send Du-
confession duplicating Dubois was
wrung from Gunsaulia and the lat
ter's sister May, who in fact was re-
sponsible for the first direct evidence
the authorities had as to who had
committed the robberies at Milton
last winter.
Skipped to Canada.
When Dubois left this community
he went to Lansing, Mich, and was
known to have been working there un
til two or three months ago. Before
the authorities could secure him there
he evidently got word that he was
wanted, and skipped to Canada. AL
though he was known to be in that
country, international complications
regarding requisition papers were
such that he was practically safe
from arrest SO long as he remained
across the line.
Late last week Drischel got word
that the woman, who is known as Mrs
Dubois, was preparing to go to De
troit. He telegraphed the police there
gave them a good description of both
the woman and Dubois and told
them to arrest Dubois in case he came
across the line. A small reward was
offered for his arrest and as soon al
the woman landed in Detroit she wa:
spotted by one of the police and shad
owed.
She boarded a car directly for tn,
wharf and was about to board thu
boat crossing the river, when she wal
accosted by Dubois, so the police in
formed Drischel. While the two wer.
clasped in each others arms, two. De
troit officers placed the two under ar
rest, it is understood, but later the wo
man was released. 1t is said Dubois
admitted identity but expressed sur
prise at his arrest. No doubt he will
fight being extradited from Mich
igan. In case he does his return her
will be delayed perhaps several days
Milton 10 Relieved.
Dubois is a suspect in the Center
vile post office robbery of last win
ter and the authorities would not b.
surprised il he knew something abou
the bank robbery at Milton and tn
burglary of the Johnson drug stor
at Cambridge City and the firing o
the building to destroy evidence.
Milton residents sighed in deep re
lief when they learned Dubois was ur
der arrest. They were afraid to pei
sonally swear out affidavits agains
him, fearing open threats to the effec
that in case they did inform the al
lthorities their homes would be burr
ed. Dubois knows the Jail like boo
Having been incarcerated before o.
lequally serious charges which wer
never proven.
