|'BAD MANI BENNY DICKSON KILLED.
Shot to Death as G-Men Surrounded Him at Hot
 Dog Stand
By GEORGE D. CRIssEY

By GEORGE D. CRISSEY United Press Staff COrrespondent)
 St. Louis, April 7-(UP)-Gloria Cambron, 19, a waitress, said today that Benny Dickson, Kansas bad man killed last night by G-men had been put on the spot" by a woman in black who sat with him while he ate his last meal. G-men denied the story, as they did when Anna Sage, "the woman in red" betrayed desperado John Dil- finger at Chicago in 1885.
 Dickson, 27, was a two-gun bank robber and kidnaper. He and his gun toting wife, Estelle, 16, had ter rorized midwestern states for more than year. Last night four agents of the Federal Bureau of Identif1- cation, acting on an informer's tip, surrounded him at west side ham, burger stand and called on him to surrender. Instead, he reached for one of two guns in his belt. Each G-man fired once and he fell with two bullets in his chest.
 Not Same Woman
 Miss Cambron examined photo graph of Dickson's wife and said it was not that of the woman she saw in the hamburger stand with Dick son. Mrs. Dicksons whereabouts were not known. G-men reportedly were searching here for her.
 Miss Cambron works in the ham, burger stand.
 "When the agents grabbed him and the firing started, the woman backed into the shop" she said "She was crying. After the shoot ing, one of the agents came in and asked her, Is that the man?'
 "The woman went outside and looked down at Dickson's body and said, That is your man.
 Miss Cambron said the woman entered an automobile and drove away and that none of the agents attempted to follow her.
 Gerald Norris, chief of the St. Louis bureau of the FBI, said:
 T don't know anything about any woman in black"
 Dies as He Resisted
 "When Dickson came out of the shop, we seized him. He broke away ran ten feet, and reached for a gun in his belt. We fired and two bullets struck Dickson. He died-without talking-while being taken to hos pital."
 The federal government had post ed 8 $4,000 reward for information leading to his capture.
 His wife is the daughter of Lester Redenbaugh, respected Topeka Kan., citizen. Dickson was the son of a Topeka high school professor and had served robbery terms at Jefferson City, Mo, state prison and at the Hutchinson, Kan, reforma- tory before he and his wife started their forays.
 Mrs. Redenbaugh described Dick son as a model son-in-law who neiher smoked nor used profanity.
 My daughter" she said, twas just 8 fun-loving girl"
