FORMER L. S. MARSHAL AGAIN
IN TROUBLE.
'Bill" Richards, Well known in
Southern Iowa Again Accused
of Crime in DeS MOineS.

After having had but little more
than a years freedom from the state
penitentiary at FIT. Madison, Bill
Richards, former deputy U. S. Mar
shall for the southern district of Iowa
robbery in Des Moines Monday night
of last week. In view of the fact
that Richards is we'll known in this
part of Iowa the following account of
the attempted crime with which he
is charged is taken from Tuesdays
Register and Leader, will be of inter-
est to our readers:
William Richards, aged SO, former
United States deputy marshal on pa
role from the state penitentiary, was
arrested at s o'clock Monday night
and identified by Mrs. NJ. B. LAHORE
as one of the three men who entered
her apartments over Alb Grand av-
enue and at the point OF gun COM
manded her to be silent while his ac
completes searched the house.
After a struggle Mrs. LAHORE made
her escape and ran to the police
station A squad of officers was sent
to the house. Richards was arrest
ed at Third street and Grand avenue
and taken to the station where he
was identified by Mrs. LAHORE. The
other two men made their escape.
Mrs. S. A. Marks, one of the occu-
pants of the apartments, said last
night that there was nothing of value
in the house at the time. Robbery
is the motive the police assign as the
cause of the visit.
Richards, with man named
Baird, was convincted and sentenced
to serve eighteen years in the peni-
Tertiary as the result of an attempt
several years ago to rob man nam
ed Sullivan living near Knoxville. In
this case Sullivan refused to disclose
the hiding place of $4,000 which he
had in his house His shoes and
stockings were removed and he was
tortured by placing lighted lamp
under his feet. He refused to make
known the hiding place and as the
men were leaving the house shot
Baird intiicting serious injury
Richards was apprehended while at
tempting to gain some knowledge of
the condition Of Baird, who had been
taken to Hamilton, Iowa.
Baird turned states evidence and
was soon parOled. Efforts on the
part of his friends gained a parole
for Richards after he had served but
six years of his term.
Although the three men were
masked last night good description
has been furnished the police and
arrests are expected soon. When
searched at the station two caps and
hat we're found in the pockets of
the coat which Richards wore. A
revolver was also found in his pos
session. The police believe that the
caps were to be used by the men in
an effort to change their appearance
and avoid suspicion.

The board should be represented

In such case 100 per cent reduc-

The little child of Mr.. and Mrs.
ThOrstOn Syverson. of near
Dwight. was struck on the head by
a partly spent 22-calibre bullet on
the Fair grounds last Thursday.
but was able to be back on the
grounds Friday. The bullet seems
to have come from the shooting
gallery on the grounds and which
in some mysterious way, found
its way outside. The Fair Asso-
citation will pay the doctor bill.
The wound bled freely but did not
go deep enough to injure very
seriously. The accident will make
the management very careful
about the location of a shooting
gallery netx time.

Times knows or has been able to
