'1 the Interior Department. 3 . l the residence of Mr. Bru dage on Vang The burglars have been captured. To officers Bartram and Hunt” falls the honor of their capture. _ Both are now safe behind the bars. They prove to be John Tanner and Ward Phillips. The latter was a. member of Company L, Third Connecticut,during the Span- ish war. ’ ' It was somewhere between 2 and 3 o’clockgThursday morning,when Officer Bartram while patrolling his beat. on North avenue in the fog saw the dim outline of two figures walking past the Dr. MacLean place. The officer also saw in the dim ‘ light that each young men carried a big bag on his back. He quickly started across the street to intercept them when one of the two started on a run. The of- deer pulled his pistol and grabbing hold of the other man called to his fleeing companion to halt. .His order was not complied with and he fired a a shot at the departing form, but ow- ing to the darkness and fog his aim was not true and the man escaped. The Officer brought his prisoner to police headquarters and he proved to be young John Tanner, and he was locked up in a. cell. Officer Kenney then went to Look wood’s hall after Officer Hunt, who was on duty there watching the valuable collection of pictures that are being exhibited. Securing Hunt the two returned to headquarters, and the latter put young Tanner through the third degree and learned from him that his companion was Ward Phillips. Officer Hunt next went to Dean & Banks’ livery stable and 3 obtained a. horse and carriage. He «returned with the turnout to headquarters and tak- ing young Tanner from the cell he handcuffed him to the rear seat of the carriage and with Officer Bartram drove to John Gorman’s house on the West Rocks road. Here they searched the barn and Officer Bartram was rewarded by find- ing the bag carried by the escaped prisoner hid away under the hay. The man wanted, however, could not be found. The officers next visited‘ the house and woke up Mr. German, but were told that no one had been to his house. They searched the cellar but. without result. ' There were two outbuildings on the premises and the officers separated to search them. As officer Hunt reached a sort of corn bin he saw a head sticking out from under a pile of cornstalks. The missing thief saw Hunt at about the same time and jumping to his feet his right hand went down to his coat pocket for his revolver. “None of that,” said Hunt, “or I’ll blow the top of your head oflf,” and he covered his man With his revolver, at the same time grabbing the fellows ; hand before he could remove it from his pocket. The handcuffs were on his prisoner in a twinkling and then the officer re- moved a 32 calibre Smith do Wesson five shot revolver from the rascal’s pocket. . Taking him out to the carriage he was secured beside his companion Tanner, and the Officers returned to police headquarters and .lo cked the burglars in a cell. i ' V The bags” carried by the captured men were examined by the officers. One was found-to contain a miscellan< eous collection of new shoes, which the prisoners confessed had been stol- en from the store of Hiram S. Brown at 205 Washington street, East . Norwalk, where they had effected an Water,gas and sewer on the avenue entrance during the night and ran- ' socked the place. Toe other bag contained about every- thing that. is usually found in a gene:- ai store. In it were a box of cigars, a package of shoestrings, leg of veal, bottles of cologne, boxes of sardines, candy and ' a. collection of other‘article’s too numer- ous to mention. . . The collection of articles the barg- lars 8le had been stolen from the store of Jesse Brundage at. 234 East avenue, East- Norwalk. Officer Hunt after inspecting the articles and obtainin; the information as to where they werZ‘tolen, drove to Zandt avenue and molds! ‘hiumip visiL-' 'ooooioos BAPTUHEI] l l -Y fession of the burglars was true, and that they had effected an entrance through a. side window. When shown the revolver taken from Phillips, Mr. Brundage claimed it as his and said it had been stolen from the store. ‘ A visit was next made to South N or- walk where it was ascertained that Brown’s shoe store had been robbed as told by the prisoners. .. The South Norwalk police have been looking for Tanner and Phillips for some time, they having robbed‘ Jose- lovsky’s grocery in East Norwalk only a few nights ago, Chief Vollmer also wanted Tanner for the theft of 3. Syracuse bicycle which he stole from J. J. Flynn of Der- by while working there. The Chief almost caught Tanner on Tolles’ dock about two weeks ago but he escaped leaving the wheel behind and it was shipped to the owner in Derby. > A watch has been kept for the pair for a long time, Constable Goodwin last night scouting in East N orwalk for them until 1 o’clock when he left for home. Prosecuting Attorney Lockwood ex- amined both boys this morning and took down their statements. They told Mr. Lockwood that they had been sleeping in the German barn and camp- ing out in the woods on the pr oceed of their robberies at night. Both prisoners are graduates of the Meriden reform school, which further demonstrates the fact that instead of reforming, this institution graduates criminals. They will be given a hearing in the town court. as soon as all preliminaries are arranged by the officials. . _. A-‘ ll Ulilllllli BHIIJE.
