STRANGE Man AT
BISMARCK WANTED;
TWO ROBBERIES

Bismarck N. D., Aug. 22.-Thieves
entered the Gamble Robinson whole
sale Fruit house and the Nortz Lum-
Der Co., Offices. Chief OF Police Nc
Donald was notified and began to work
on the case at once, Bloodhounds
were secured from the state peniten-
tiary but they could not find the trail.
The suspicion centers around one man
and every effort possible is being made
to locate him.
The man that is sought by the Of
hcers Is @. Parmeter, who gives Chi
Ecago as his home. He has been I'M
der suspicion for the past several
days, and his disappearance from the
city last night leads the officers to
believe that he can give some VAL
liable information concerning the rob
berries. Parmeter came to the city
about two weeks ago and registered
at h Mckenzie hotel. He has been
under suspicion at the hotel and just
yesterday Mr.. Patterson directed the
clerk to collect his board, fearing that
he might suddenly disappear. He be-
came acquainted with several during
his brief stay in the city. He was
also under suspicion by the officers
and q few days ago he vas arrested
by Chief Mcdonald and was given a
sweating but it did not reveal any
thing of a startling character. He
has told numerous stories to different
residents of the city about his occupa-
ton and the reason for him staying
here. He had told he was a druggist
from Chicago, a travelling salesman,
and also told some that he was here
hunting recreation. His stories were
SO complicated that many suspected
him. He was last seen at about 8
O'Clock last night and he did mot re-
turn to the hotel for all of his be-
longings. He jumped a board bill of
several dollars. Police and sheriffs in
the state have been notified to keep
a close watchout for him and his ar
rest is expected hourly.
There is not a question but what
both of the jobs were done by the
same party or parties. The thief or
thieves entered the Nortz Lumber Co,
offices through one of the windows on
the side of the building, but were not
very successful, only securing about
$3.50 in stamps. The Gamble Robin
son Wholesale Fruit house was also
entered through the side window. The
safe was unlocked and about $26 In
cash was secured. Three boxes were
taken out of the safe. Two were found
at the rea of the shipping room, while
the box containing the money was
found near the Northern Pacific stock
yards. All of the drawers in both of
the Offices were rihed.
