John Egan Faces Trial for
Robbery in 1907.

Accompanied by a United States Mar
shall, John Egan, alias w. ]. Greene,
alias John Martin, whom the police say
is wanted in a score of cities for rob-
berries and other crimes, was brought to
this city last night and turned over to
the local police. Egan spent the night
in a cell at the First precinct station.
He is wanted here fov the burglary of
the apartments of Mrs. Lena G. Foster,
whose suite was broken into and robbed
of several hundred dollars worth OF dia-
monds and jewelry on September 26, 1907.
Shortly after the robbery of Mrs. Fos-
ter's apartment, in the Madrid, Egan
was arrested in New York. He was later
sent to Dannemora prison, where he re-
Gently finished a term of four years for
robbery.
Egan, whose term at the New York
prison expired about a month ago, was
dumfounded on the day set for his liber-
alton when he was informed that the
Washington police wanted him. Instead
of being set free, he was taken before
the United States commissioner near the
prison and given a hearing. The COM
missioner decided that the local authori-
ties had sufficient evidence to warrant
the detention of the man, and ordered
him sent to this city.

OBJECTS TO DUTY
ON BATTLE SHIP
Editor of Bluejacket Finds
His Occupation Gone.

Chief YeOman Fred J. Buenzle, L. S.
N, was recently assigned to sea duty
on board the new battle ship Florida.
Most enlisted men of the navy would
regard It as a high honor to be assigned
to the new DrcadnOught, but Buenzle
does not like it. For the last ten years
he has been on shore duty at Newport.
r. l., where he has been editor and
publisher OF The BlucjaCket, a publica-
ton for the enlisted men of the Navy.
AS the periodical will probably suspend
because of Buenzle's transfer, he is not
pleased with the action of the officers
OF the Navy Department who assigned
him to the battle ship Florida, and It is
said that he charges that the Navy
Department has Disseminated against
him. 1t was said at the Navy Depart
ment yesterday, however, that Buenzle
had been given a years time in which
to wind up his affairs and prepare him
self for sea duty. BuenzIe, it is said,
has appealed to the Secretary of the
Navy, who will review the papers IN the
case upon his return to Washington.
