WWW? Minna Sept. B.~Living in the
wilds of northern xinnesota, iii) miles
from a postcnice, with oniyoboyfor a
companion, Dr. George W. Fairer, who
planned one of the most gigantic and suc-
cessful insurance swindles or modern
times, was captured by unicorn who have
been on his truck for the past two years.
Up to Aug. 18 last there was a standing
reward of $20,000 for his arrest offered by
the insurance companies.
In the latter part of 1898 Dr. George W.
Ili'rakcr was attached to the St. Elmo bo-
tei. the leading hotel in Excelsior Springs,
a famous health resort near Kansas City.
Together with seven or eight companions,
the doctor Went fishing on the Missouri
river one day, and after dark. while in
the company of George Harry, James
Triplet and Jake Crowley, a negro, he
disappeared. Those three parties after-
ward were positively that they witnessed
his drowning ‘whilc rowing in a leak
boat. .'
Some three or four months previous to
this he began loading up with life insnr»
once. taking 810,000111 the Kansas Mu-
tual Life of Topeka, 815, 000 in tho Hart-
ford Life and Annuity. $15,000 in the
Providence Savings Life of New York and
$8,800 in the benevolent societies of that
place, a total of $58,000. .
Insurance Companies Had to Pay.
Forty thousand dollars of the insurance
money was payable to his brother~in-law
in trust for the children. Dr. Fraker,
Who practiced for eight years, was an
active leader in Sunday school work, but
held rather peculiar views on religious
subjects.
Afters thorough investigation all the
companies except the Equitable refused
to pay the claims, whereupon James E.
Lincoln, the executor of the will, brought
suit in the district court at Liberty, Mm,
which was afterward transferred to the
United States circuit court of Kansas
City. Robert '1‘. Herrick was appointed
jointly to conduct the case for the com-
panies and was assisted by eminent legal
talent.
In the latter pdrt of lh‘iil. after an in-
tensely sensational trial, lusting two
weeks, the jury, acting under orders from
the court, declared for thcdefeuso. A
new trial was granted on technical points,
and in February judgment was given for
the full amount and a stay of execution
granted for six months until Aug. 12. (in
that date the full amount was paid to the
executor, and the companies withdrew
their offer of $20,000Toward.
Herrick obtained a clew in the latter
lowed ever since, until about a Week ago
he learned the who-cahoots and assumed
name of the doctor.
Thursday night he arrived in Tower,
Minn, together with John Wilkinson,
chief of police of Topeka. to assist in tak-
_ ing Ember back. Herrick and Wilkinson
learned that Dr. li‘rakor went by the name
of Schnell and lived with a young man in
avvoodmnn'sbut hi) miles from Tower,
on the Itasca county road. ' "
Owned lip When Arrested.
About 12 miles from Tovvcr, Deputy
Philip, who was acquainted with h‘rakcr
under his alias as Sohnell, saw Fraker’i
companion in a shanty near the wood. He
was handcuffed and guarded. and about
two miles further on Dr. Frakcr, with a
gun on his shoulder, was found. Sudden—
ly Philip seized his arms, and Wilkinson
put on the handcuffs.
