Brown Finger Print Finally
Discovered, Which Leads
to His Arrest.

Jersey city. ~ j., June THE
finger print trap to-day caught an
alleged burglar, who. the police say,
had many times foiled them by wear
Ing gloves.
ihirty-fvc recent burglarIes in the
wealthiest part OF the city had caused
the police TO place n Gordon about the
district. Apparently the guard was
useless, Tor the thefts continued and
the unknown burglar wrote taunting
letters 10 the police IN which he boast
ed that they would look In vain for
finger prints on the scene of his opera
tions.
When the police arrested Frank
KILLER on general suspicion early to-
day they produced from house
robbed a few days ago a bit OF win
dow glass bearing a small brown
stain. 1t was tho only finger print
discovered on the scene of all the
recent burglares but It agreed exact
ly with the prisoners and also with
the record at New York headquar-
ters of g. man who had done several
terms for burglary.
The police believe that the burglar
cut his hand while entering house
and neglected to put on his gloves
until after he had touched the glass
with one bloody finger.
