PRINTS LEFT ON CUT GLASS
No Trace Is Found Of the Mysterious
"H. Morgan or His Fashionably
Dressed Wife But Detectives Hope
Rogues' Gallery Will Aid Search


was In the IL. d. Dal6 SJOT6 on ldSI k0dG-
urday afternoon acting as a decoy to
aid probable pal to get away with
$4,000 worth of diamonds from the
store he left trace behind him. 1t
was one of those FPuddin Head Will
SON. traces, but at that the thumb
print which the man left on the hand
some cut glass vase in the Dale store
may prove the one thing that will
bring his undoing and the arrest of the
people connected with the daring rob-
berry. Both Morgan and the woman
with him handled the cut glass vase
in the Dale store. This morning the
vase, carefully wrapped in cotton, was
taken to Chicago and it will be photo
graphed with view Of bringing out
the prints on the surface of it. Then
the detectives will begin process of
elimination. Prints of the thumbs of
Mr.. Dale and his employees will be
taken and these compared with the
picture prints on the vase.
1t is thought certain that thumb
prints will be found which will not in
any way compare with those made by
the Kenosha men employed in the
store. Then the detectives will begin
a search through the rogue galleries of
the country to find the finger prints of
q man and woman which will cor
respond to the prints found on the
vase. The detectives are hopeful that
in this manner they will be able to Sc
cure the arrest Of "Morgan' and the
woman with him and that their arrest
will bring about the arrest of the man
who actually committed the robbery.
1t may take months to work out the
plan Of the detectives, but it is declar-
ed that the job in Kenosha was the
work of experts and it is thought prob
bic that the men and the woman con-
nected with it have at some time serv-
ed time in some Of the penal institu-
tions Of the United States
This is the first time that the finger
print method has been adopted in a
search for thieves working in Kenosha.
The most expert detectives of the
Pinkerton bureau in Chicago have been
put to work on the Dale robbery.
There have been several similar crimes
committed in the past few weeks Out
In DeMonies, Iowa, thieves with SINH
lar plan, made haul of three thousand
dollars worth of diamonds less than a
week ago and it is possible that the
same thieves were responsible for the
robbery of the Dale store here on
Saturday.
Locally nothing has been found to
aid the detectives in their search The
local police officers are doing every
thing possible to aid in the search for
the stolen jewels but they have not
been able to get the slightest clew to
the identity of the man who got the
tray of diamonds or the man and the
woman who were supposed to have
been his confederates Cards were sent
far and wide throughout the country
today asking police officers to search
pawn shops for the jewelry stolen in
Kenosha. A reward of one hundred
dollars is offered for the return of the
jewelry. Here is list of the rings
