GeorS0 HopSrIS ana Clem f1anney.
ST. Joseph, Mo-, Oct 15.-By the
prints of their fingers left in half i
dozen places on various post office
safes in little inland towns of II
linois and Iowa the federal authori-
ties hope to convict George Roberts
ard Glenn Hanney of some of the
most puzzling robberies which have
occurred recently in the middle west.
Roberts and Hanney were arrested
here after Hanney recognized two de-
tectives and tried to dodge them by
going out of the side door of a sa-
loon. Roberts was arrested soon af-
forwards. Post office inspectors say
that the two men are desperate yegg-
men and extra precautions are being
taken pending their preliminary hear
ing in the federal court on October
81.
The men were under surveillance at
Peoria, H.. when they suddenly dis
appeared. Then the post office safe
at Bluff Springs, H., was robbed. A
posse of three which captured the
two robbers had the tables suddenly
turned on 1t when one of the prison
ers drew revolver and got the drop
on the officers. Soon afterwards
postoffices at Macksburg, Ia, Rosen-
dale, Mo-, and number of little in
land towns were robbed In three Of
these instances the post office inspec-
tors found finger prints left by the
robbers. They were carefully photo :
grapAed and saved. And they were
found to coincide with those of Rob-
erts and Hanney when they were ar
rested here. In addition to this the
authorities claim to have enough evil
dence to convict the men of a num-
Der of these safe blowings. They are
held now on warrants charging them
with the Bluff Springs and Macks-
burg robberies. Both have previous
records for the same offenses.

FEELING OF RELIEF IN
OFFICIAL WASHINGTON

Washington, Oct. 15.--Deep feelings
of relief were expressed in official
and unofficial circles here when it
was learned that Colonel Roosevelt's
wound was not serious.
Probably the most serious accident
in which he figured was in 1909 when
his carriage was struck by a trolley
car near Pittsfield. Mass. and a Sc
cfet service man was killed.
On that occasion Mr.. Roosevelt was
thrown heavily TO the ground, but
escaped with numerous contusions.
Three years later, in October, 1905,
the colonel was journeying down the
Mississippi river on the light house
tender Magnolia. when the vessel was
run down by a steamer. The Mag
noIia was beaehed before IT could
sink and Mr.. Roosevelt was taken
off
Only last summer the train on
which Mr.. Roosevelt was going to
Chicago, ran onto a boulder which
had run on the tracks. The engine
and cars. running at high speed
swayed and jolted. but surmounted
the obstruction and did not leave the
track.

Colonel Roosevelt has reproved him
for being too rough" IN Saginaw,
Mich, when Martin threw himself
against man who was pushing for
ward and showed him into a gutter.
he was rebuked by Colonel Roosevelt
Martin declares that the man at
Saginaw and Schrank are the same.
Last night in Milwaukee Martin
was at the coloners elbow. Henry
+. Cochems was on the other side.
You get into the car first said
Cochems to Martin, as it was GUS
tomary for the colonel to take the
middle seat.
Mo, you go first" replied Martin.
The politeness gave him the oppor-
tunity TO engrave his name on the
roll of fame, for Cochems was out
of reach when the shot was first
fired and Martin was right at hand.
Schrank was within seven feet Of
the colonel when he raised his hand
with the gun in 1t leveled at Roose-
velt's breast. He fired In an in
slant Martin leaped on him, hurting
him to the ground. One of Martins
arms was twisted around Schrank's
neck.
Il saw Martin leap on the man like
wild animal" said Cochems, who
himself seized the assassin second
later. Martin dashed him to the
ground, twisting the mans head back.
Martins free hand was grasping the
revolver around the hammer so that
the weapon could not be fired"
Martin is former foot ball player
and schrank was no match for him.
He tried desperately to pull the trig-
ger Of his weapon but Martin held
the barrel pointed harmlessly toward
the sky. Cochems and a special
policeman wrenched the gun away
from Schrank and then the angry
crowd surged forward.
Martin and Cochems Joined in drag
ging Schrank to safety, under Colonel
Roosevelt's protection.
Don't hurt the man; don't let any
one hurt him." insisted the colonel,
and his orders were respected.
Martin Is 20 years old and a native
OF Manchester. VT He now lives in
New York city. He Joined the Roose
Welt staff August 1s by the simple
process OF walking into Progressive
headquarters and asking for a lob.
He was given 1t and soon after was
made the coloneFs personal stenog-
Fapher.
Colonel Roosevelt likes aggressive
man around him. THAT young man
looks as if he had the punch,'' he
said of Martin and how the stenog-
rapher made good was shown last
night. Martin was married this sum
mer. He not only is an expert
stenographer, but a lawyer, having
graduated in the class of 1912 from
Detroit college. He was admitted tc
