DETECTIVES
WORKING ON
MURDER Case
Pinkeftoo Men Now Working
10 Case Where Fargo
Police Failed
Six Days Elapsed and No
CleW Found IN Murder Of
julius Hanson
Theory That I Gill Figured
in the Case Has Been
Abandoned

Special TO The Tribune.
FARGO, Aug. Although SIX days
have elapsed since the murder OF
Julius Hanson, the police of this city
nave been unable to run down the
murders, and at the present time are
at a loss what to do. Every clew,
connected with the tragedy has been
run down without any results, and
the police are as far away from solv-
ing the mystery as they were on the
night of the shooting.
Pinkerton Man Arrives.
A representative of the Pinkerton
detective agency, who is said to be
the best man of the long string OF
Pinkerton detectives, has arrived on
the scene and is working on the case.
The police officials refused to admit
that the man was working in the
city, but it is known fact that he
is here working on clue, either for
the city or private parties.
The theory that Hanson was shot
for jealousy has been abandoned by
the police and they now think that
robbery was the motive for the hold
up. 1t was proven thSt the quarrel
Hanson had at the fair did not
amount to anything that would con-
meet the other party with the tragedy.
The securing of the Pinkerton de-
tective is the last ray of hope of run
ming down the murderers. Although
it is rumored that he is working on a
strong clue this cannot be affirmed.
Reign Of Crime.
A number OF hOld-ups and rObberies
have been committed in this city dur
ing the past week and the police have
been unable to check the reign Of
crime. Perhaps what is the most
brazen hold-up of the Vice. occurred
Wednesday noon when an intoxicated
man was acid up by two men just a
few blocks from the police station.
The men were successful in carrying
out the ROBBERY and made their get
away before the police could arrive.
Another bold hold-up occurred Tues
day night when farmer was re-
lieved of his cash. He was driving
to the city and was passing the lair
grounds when the men held him up.
The case was Immediately reported
to the police but they were unable 2
locate the highwaymen.
That the same men who are COM
uniting the crimes are the persons
who murdered julius Hanson is the
general belief. They have been sue.
cessful in eluding the officers and
their bold hold-ups will not be check
ed until force of detectives are put
on the job.
During the past twenty-four hours
the police refuse to give out any in.
formation concerning their work, only
that no arrests have yet been made.
Not being able to check the reign of
crime has not boosted the Fargo
force to any extent and the officers
are not feeling any too good over the
matter.
