WOMAN.TRAP
IS FATAL TO
HUNTED Man
Benny Dickson, Two
Gun kidnaper and
Bank Robber, Slain
by Federal Agents

ST. LOUIS - Gloria Cam
bron, 10. a waitress, said to-
day that Benny Dickson.
Kansas badman who was kill
ed last night by Omen, had
been put on the spot by a
woman in black who sat with
him at a hamburger stand
while he ate his last meal.
Omen denied the story. rs they
did when Anna Sage. known AZ
the woman in red" betrayed
Desperate John Dillinger at Chi
eago in 1888 and led him to a spot
where he fell before G-men's guns.
Dickson. ~. was a two-gun bank
robber and kidnaper He and his
gun-toting wife, Estelle, is, an eN-
ceptionally attractive blonde. had
terrorized mid-western states for
more than year. Last night four
agents of the federal bureau of in
vestigation. acting on an in
formers tip. surrounded him at
West Side hamburger stand.
He reached for one of two
guns he carried In his belt.
Each Oman fired once and he
fell with two bullets In his
chest. He died without saying
word.
Miss Cambron examined a photo
graph of Dickson's wife and said
it was not the likeness of the
woman she said she had seen in
the hamburger shop with Dickson.
Mrs. Dickson's whereabouts were
not known.
Miss Cambron said she was work.
ing behind the counter when the
man who turned out to be Dickson
came in and sat down.
"A few minutes later" Miss
Csmbron said. "a woman. about 35.
came in and sat down alongside
of him. She wore an expensive
black coat and hat and had curly
black hair. They started to talk
to each other, and. when they had
finished eating. Dickson paid both
checks and they walked out to-
gether. =
when the agents grabbed
him and the firing started. the
woman backed into the shop.
She was crying. After the
shooting. one OF the agents
came In and asked her. Is
that the man.
THE woman went outside
and looked down Mt Dickson's
body and said. That IL your
man."
Miss Cambron said the woman
then stepped over to an automobile
and drove away and that none OF
the agents attempted 10 follow
her.
Gerald Norris. chief of the St
Louis bureau of the FBI. tersely
discounted Miss Cambron's story.
The federal government had
posted a 1000 reward for infor-
nation leading to Dickson's cap
ture. which may have prompted
one OF his associates or friends TO
betray him.
