WRIGHT TRIAL
st. Louis Gang Suspect to
Face Court Today on
Gun Charge.
CONVICTED IN 2 CASES
Third Guilty Verdict Will
Give HabituaI Criminal
Act Penalty.
CONVICTED IN 2 CASES

Homer Wright, 81. dapper alleged
bandit and gangster, fought to save
himself from prison stripes the rest
OF his life, in criminal court to-
day.
A jury was expected to be sworn
in this afternoon. Defense Attorney
Ira M. Holmes said he was satisfied
with the jurors and passed them to
Prosecutor William H. Remy for
questioning.
Wright, former friend of Edward
Traugott, merchant, sentenced Sat-
urday in the interstate automobile
theft ring case, was being tried on
a charge of being a felon in pos
session of firearm. If Prosecutor
William H. Remy wins conviction
in this case, he will press habitual
criminal charges against Wright.
Wright has been convicted for
two felonies. A third conviction
lays him liable to life Imprisonment
as an habitual criminal
ATTeStCu III apartment
Wright was arrested Aug. 21 by
police, who were rounding UP per-
sons for questioning about the ma
chine gun murder of Edward Ewald
Of st. Louis, near Clinton, Ind, a
few days before. Detectives trapped
him in his apartment, 1929 North
Alabama street. They found ma
chine gun and a revolver in the
apartment, they declare.
Detectives also found Traugott in
the apartment. He was not arrest
cd at that time. He told officers he
had gone there to get some liquor,
but they found none in the place.
Police and the prosecutors office
questioned Wright a number Of
times about the 100000 Broadmoor
Country Club dinner dance holdup
of May 30, without success. Wright
also has been grilled about ac-
tivities of Egan's Rats, a ST. Louis
gang plying between st. Louis and
Terre Haute, and having connec-
tions in indianapolis.
FrieEI Is Convicted
Last week the prosecutors office
convicted James Walker, friend of
Wright, before a criminal court jury
on a charge of possessing a revolver
without a permit. Walker is 'serv-
ing year on the state penal farm.
Selection of the jury to try
Wright is the first step by county
authorities to bring to trial any al
legged member Of the gang that held
up the country club.
Guests were lined against walls
of the dance room of the club and
robbed of jewels and money
amounting at least to 100000.
Wins Much Attention
Wright's debonair style of dress
and personal poise has made him a
figure at the county Jail. His tactics
of not answering questions put to
him by the prosecutors mas led
authorities to believe that ne knows
many of the inner workings of the
alleged interstate booze-running
gang.
Charles Player, also alleged to
have participated in the holdup, was
arrested in st. Louis soon after
Wright was apprehended here.
Phayer was partly identified by per-
sons at the country club as being
one of the bandits.
