Three Deadly Battles with

, ilesperadoes
(Continued From First Page).

 

they stopped, and, according to some
men and boys, who watched them,
loaded four automatic revolvers with
rolls of cartridges. Through Williams
street, the men entered Franklin Park,
Itmd thence into Forest Hills Ceme-
ery.

Herbert E. Knox the watchman,
had been on the lookout for the men.
and elieved he saw one answering the
desc iption. He secured a revolver.
and returned to look for the man. He
came upon him unexpectedly, and be-
fore he was able to use his weapon
he was shot down with a bullet
through the abdomen. Knox was hur-
ried to the Emerson Hospital, near-
by, where he died three hours later.
From this time on to daybreak little
effort was made by the officers to seek
the desperadoes. as the cemetery was
so carefully guarded that it was be-
lieved impossible for, the men to get
outside, and orders Were given to all
patrolman to advance toward the com
ter of the cemetery at 4 o’clock.

Scarceiy a quarter of an hour after
the forces began the advance, the fig-
ure of a wild, unkempt man sprang up
in front of the officers at the south
side of the cemetery, and started off
on the run. The man was barefooted.
a broken derby covered his head, a
torn and ragged coat was on his book,
and in one hand he carried a heavy
revolver while the other dangled a
reel of cartridges.

For mote than a mile across the
cemetery, the man raced madly over
graves, around shrubbery and through
gullies, and an ever~increasing mob of
policemen foIIOWed slowly, but stead
iiy in his wake. Al at once he disall-
peared in a ravine somewhat deeper
than the others, not two hundred yards
from the Main Morton street entrance
to the cemetery grounds. But one bit
of shrubbery marked the lowol level
of the ravine. and into this the man
sprang for the final stand. There was
but a second before the sides of the
ravine were lined many de p with the
bluecoats. Revolvers whic they had
curred in their hands through the long
night were brought to bear upon the
lone bush in the gully, and shot after
shot was poured Into the bush.

When the rain of shots was over,
inspectors carefully approached the
bush, and parting the leaves found
the victim of a hundred otncers' bui-
lets dead upon the ground.

Almost at the same time another

‘ commotion was created on the oppo-

site side of the main gate within t
confines of the main cemetery, and a
man who had refused to throw up his
hand had been seized, disarmed and
hurriedly rushed to the main gate in
the charge of an escort of officers.
Both the dead body and the captive
were taken to the Jamaica Plain sta-
ton.

Some doubt arising, however, as to
the identity of the captured man, the
hundred officers remaining were again
marched back into the cemetery to
continue the search.

At 8 a. m. the police were tracing
up large splashes of blood in the come-
tery, in the hope of locating the
third bandit.

BURGL‘ARS RAIDING IN AUTO.

A Real Scare On In marten and New
Canaan.

DARIEN, Conn, July 23.-The coun-
try hereabouts has been looted right
and left for the last ten days or so by
a gang of burglars operating in an au-
tomobile, and so earnest have been
their efforts that the honest farmers
are sitting up 0' nights with shotguns
across their knees, while the city busi‘
ness man is banking all his money
now before leaving the city.

The two latest attempts came the
other night. The tool short of William
W..Crane. a carpenter. 80 years old,
was entered and robbed of the only
stock in trade that lies between the
old man and starvation. A little later
the third attempt In four days to en-
ter the house of Stephen '1‘. Mather
was frustrated by the wakefulness of
Mother‘s hired man. John Seileok.

The biggest night's work the thieves
ever did was last Saturday. They first
entered the house of Frank Glover, a
lawyer and robbed it of 88, for which
Mr. Glovers dough Irene, who in
treasurer of the Us on Chapel Chris-
tian Endeavor fund. i! no alibie.

as much of a cleanup as they could,
they went, Into the kitchen and ate
the family's Sunday dinner.

Tbsp they went on a little ways, to
the house of the costable, David N.
Mather, and turned his place upside
down, but did not get anything. They
stopped across the street to the home
of David's cousin, Stephen T. Mother.
and were shinning up a lattice when
the hired men heard them andoblook-
ed the play.

Selleck took a good look at the men
as they put for their automobile. Ac-
cording to Selleck there are three of
them, one who stays by the machine.
one who acts as a. lookout, and am
other who enters the house. They do
their work in a. red touring oar.

After they had been driven from
Stephen Matherfis they went to'r the
next house, where David’ Mother's son
Clarence lives. Clarence is a 10005
lad who'was married only a short
time ago. The thieves robbed him it
his wedding presents.

So for Stephen Mother's hours was
the only one they had tried nnsuccel
fully They flute back to that againon
Monday night, and for the third time
last night. Both times they were
scared off. ‘

0n Gracie street. which leads from
here toward New Canaan, there lived
a man who runs a Bowery lodgiul’s.
house. He advertises the fact that its

odd change, in his place on the Bow- '

cry.

Next door to him lives a farmer who
stores his hams in the parlors because
they are not safe in his smoke house.
He tried to sell his place a while ago.
and the real estate agent, when he
heard how the hams chine there, ex-
claimed as he threw up both hands
in despair “I couldn't get a New
Yorker by younr front door, not if they
were the pearly gates. A New York 1
family does not mind being raided
once in a while, but they only want
the thief to take his Show. It's this ,
clean sweep thing that they object to. "

O11 their first visit to this neighbor-
hood, the thieves went through the‘
summer place of Edgar A. Aucincloss.
who is developing a country estate out
of three or four farms. This time the '
thieves did a. second story job. vWIthf
a honseful of servants Inside, and the
lodges of the coachman and the head
gardener within a. stone’s throw, they
hoisted a painter‘s ladder to the kit-‘
chen window on the second story. and
went right in. They held back the
swinging doors of the butler's pa try.
between the kitchen and the di ng
room, with a poker and a stove lifter.
so as to have a quick get-away. Then
they made a clean sweep of the plate
At the house it was said today that
the thieves didn't get much, as the
plate was all pewter. . Nevertheless. ,
Mr. Auchincloss has offered a reward
of $100. -

The gang has a chloroform job to its
credit, according to Constable Mather, ,
who is keeping tab on them. Then en- .
tered the home of Thomas Rae, a New
York lumber‘man, who lives at New ‘
Canaan, the town adjoining this. n
week ago yesterday. Besides Mamie
is two sons were in the house. The
burglars are said to have chloroform-
ed the father and gene through his
room, taking their own time. They
got nothing.

Besides these actual breaks, they»
have been frightened away from MW”
erai other places All. these burglar-
ies have occurred within the town of
Darion or its neighbor, New Canaan. .
There are 3 .500 persons living in the
seven square miles of Dorian. many
of whom are wealthy New Yorkers.
but the police protection consists of
only a few constables. »

“Why don’t you get annexed to one
of the Norwalks?" an inhabitant m: ‘
asked yesterday, “and get their detec-
tives to work?"

The inhabitant spat disgustedly. .

he asked. “Why, the whole bunch of.
