He left her. she said, after she had
refused to follow his suggestion and
return to Honolulu on a business
deal that McMurray told her should
net them at least $1,000. When she

January 28. He said that he was a
merchant from Kansas City and that
he had plenty of means with which to
pay his bills.
LOOT WORTH $50 ZOO FOUND
From the hotel he sailed forth and
stole from homes, almost too numerous
to mention. $4,000 worth of loot, of
which $4,000 worth, according to Chief
of Detectives Mooney, already has been
recovered.
Captain Mooney says that as much
moTr is in pawnshops and hidden in
places that for the present Dale re-
fuses to divulge.
The Identification of Dale, or owen.
as his correct name appears to be, was
effected through card that was found,
partly torn, In a pocket of his clothing
when he was removed after the excit-
ing gun fight of Saturday afternoon
in which Mrs. Sherman and two plain
clothes men played a conspicuously
courageous part
The card was soiled and barely legi-
BILE In the matter of the writing upon
1t, but the telephone number of an
automobile stand was evident, and
Captain Mooney detailed Detectives
Proll. Black and RiehI to look into the
matter.
GAVE CARD TO "CoNN"
The phone number was called up and
it proved to be that of a taxi man at
the st. Francis hotel. This witness
told the detectives that he did not know
Dale, but he believed that he had given
card to a man named Conn or owen,
who resided at the hotel. The locating
of the room followed.
In the gentleman burglars apart
ments were many evidences of his fam
lily relations-and many substantial
proofs of his extensive crimes. In a tin
case. concealed under the bed, was
found diamonds, watches, bracelets.
necklaces and all kinds of jewelry to
the value of thousands of dollars.
Pawn tickets, letters, kilograms and
memorandums that are not now alto
gether understood were among the
articles discovered.
Among the letters were several
from a sister in Chicago. showing that
the burglar had lived in that city and
that he had told his family, apparently
respectable persons, that he was in
the moving picture business and that
this kept him moving about the state.
This his family seemed to have aa-
cepted as the truth, judging from their
letters in return to the thief.
The story told at police headquarters
last night was that after finding the
taxi mans card and locating the room
of the thief in the ST. Francis hotel the
detectives went to the city and county
hospital and confronted the wounded
man with the evidence
At first he refused to acknowledge
