hundred dollars. The prisoner claims
to be John Jones, a carpenter, and
says that he has positively no knowl-
edge of the holp-up. The police be-
lieve that he is James Nolan, of Des-
Moines, the bandit who last night
wounded a county policeman in a pis-
tol duel before making his escape
from the train. Jones is detained as
