AFTER DESPERATE DUEL WITH
JERRY MCCARTHY, AN Es;.
CAPPED CONVICT.
KILLS HIS MAN BEFORE He DIES
Two Arrests of Well Known Sporting
Men Reveal Details of Whole
sale Burglary and Safe
Cracking Plot.

MINNEAPOLIS. One police officer
and one desperate dead. and two well
known sporting men in Jail are the
developments in the latest Mill City
police sensation.
Jerry Mccarthy, bank robber, high.
wayman and escaped convict, was
shot and killed by Patrolman Joseph
J. Olinger, who died one hour later
with six of the outlaws bullets in his
body. At arms length from one an
other, the officer of the law and the
fugitive of the law emptied their re-
yolvers into one another in the doubly
fatal pistol duel which took place on
the sidewalk on main business
street.
An offer by Mccarthy to blow and
rob the bank at Twenty-fourth and
Central avenues, and allow Patrolman
Olinger to share in the proceeds if he
would keep off his beat on the night
selected, was made known personally
to Superintendent of Police Mealey by
Patrolman Olinger himself, who said
that he had not resented the bride of
fer because he wanted to lead on the
criminals so that he could capture
them with evidence enough to convict.
Following a full confession made by
A. H. benson, a poolroom proprietor
before County Attorney Robertson,
Chief Mealey and other members Of
the police department regarding his
connection with Mccarthy. Fred A.
Briggs was ARRESTED as being impli-
Gated with the outlaw and is now held
in Central station. He acknowledged
being on intimate terms with Nc
Carthy, but denied being mixed UP in
any of the latter's shady deals.
The confession obtained from Den
son was or a sensational nature and
outlined a system of robbery of which
he practically accused Briggs Of be-
ing the brains while Mccarthy did
the actual work.
