10 THE ADAMS EXPRESS ROBBERY. a ONE OF THE GANG CONFESSES—THE TRUE STORY OF THE CRIME—ARREST OF THE RECEIVER. The story of the Adams Express robbery has At last been told, and the mystery with which it | was Invested by the detectives has been dispelled by the contession of Jonn Sweeney, one of the suspected men. Sweepey, in company with Dan Haury, an em- ployé of the company, was arrested on Thursday Bight on suspicion, and stuce then has been locked up at the headquarters, Alter the arrest, Mr. John Hoey, the superintendent of the express company, visited the men several times, with a view to have them tell what they knew of the affair or make some acknowledgment which would lead to the recovery of the property. From the first Sweeney was steadfast in his denial of any knowledge of the robbery; but on Satur- day Haury intimated that he coula do something for Mr. Hoey if Mr. Hoey would assist him in re- | turn, Mr. Hoey says he did not pay any attention to this offer of Haury’s; but the fact that Sweeney | turned informer looks as taough it had been used | to influence him (Sweeney). Mr. Hoey, nowever, | Bays he ouly appealed to Sweeney on behalf of his | mother and sister, and that that was sufictent to | induce him to make a “CLEAN BREAST OF If.” Betore giving tue confession it may be well to give Mr. Hoey’s version of the loss of the sale, | which, by the way, is now published for the first | time. That gentieman says that at balf-past seven | On the morning of Sunday, the 19th day of Janu- | ary, thirty-two sates and trunks were brought to | the *principai office of the company, at No. 59 | Broadway,an, instead o/ being immediately locked | up in the vault as they should have been, Sullivan, | the watchman, allowed them to stand in (he yard. | Sullivan went to church and left a watchman | named Clark in charge of the packages until he | should returo. While Sullivan was away Dan Haury entered, the yard for the purpose of taking out his team to oring in | the freigut of tue Eastern cars. He complained of | being ili, anu requested to be relieved o1 the work, | @ request Which seems to have been granted, as it | @ppears that he immediately began to load up an | empt. rt woick stoud in the yard. It was | Haury’s duty to drive this wagou to Communipaw | at jour A, M. the next morning (Monday) so as to | catch the early train, While the watchman’s back | was turned and his attention engaged in anotner | part of the yard Haury lifted one of tne | iron boxes and pat it in the lore ward part of tse wagon he was loading. In a few minutes !t was lost to signt beneath a mass of ireight, which was quicely thrown in. Aiter the wagon had been loaded and made ready jor the morrow Huury departed, and shortly there- | g@iter Sullivan returned irom church and locked Up the treasure boxes and trunks Without missing Bny of them. Next morning the money cierk tailed for tne boxes and one was found to be missing. In the meantime Haury had gone to Communipaw and returned. All the employés were eXamined, but when it came to} Haury’s turn he reused to be eXamined, And became so mdignant at the sus | picion waich he supposed attached to him | that he talked of resigning. Nothing could be learned of the jost sale, so private detectives | were called in to work up the case. A “shadow” Was set on Haury, who knew he was watched, and dD twWo Occasions assaulted hisshadower. As he Knew he was watched he was too wary to be | taught in any overt act, and the detectives made | Qv headway. intoe meantime the company fad | teceived a description of the property lost and | Advertised it, On Wednesaay morpmg a German jad named Koope, who lives in Seventy-fourth Street, {ound a package on the corner of Second | avenue and Filty-first street, which contained $20,000 wortn of North Carolina State ponds, which he brought to heaGquarters and handed over to Superintendent Wailing. Here was the first satisfactory clew. It proved tbat the robbery bau been dove in New York and tuat the perpe- trators were not projessionals. The Superintend- ent sent ior Mr. Hoey, who immediateiy ideottea the bonds as part oi the property lost. At this Stage of the case the Superintendent decided | upon arresting Haury and bis companion | inthe middle of t New Jerse: nd President Sweeney. ‘be men were iound in Wasningtoo | were iniormed that on the previous Sund: Bank, pred Bates ud mete os satteed | street on Thursday night aud brought to | he was in reality beginning bis retrea' i ay e Beet Readquarters, The next day a man of | ham, he was mative of Sussex county, which he represented in plain appearance called at headquarters and Se okie SACRISTY the State Legislature in 1845-6-7, He went to ou! pr requested to lave an audience with tbe Superin- | tendent, The request was compiled with, aud at | the conference tue stranger said bis daugnter | worked in tae same shop with two girls named | respectively Lena Wilson aud her maiden sister Ella Lunz, Unti the day previous they had been | \n very poor circumstances, but by some means | unknown to the narrator’s daughter they nad | suddenly become rich.

The Superintendent immediately | sept lor the girls in question aud examined them, Ella aid not wish to conceal anything and told a she knew.

But for >Weeney’s coulession it is very doubtiul wuether pither would be found. At tnis jancture Sweeney | turned State’s evidence, and by his confession ail | the clews are struug into a consecutive story. | * THE CONFESSION. | In his confession to Mr. Hoey Sweeney stated | that he was iniormed by Haury that the safe was Onthe truck anu everything was “right.” The next morning Sweeney went over on the same | boat with «he wagon which contained the sae | and waited outside the freight depot until the Wagon had teen uuloaded. When Haury re- | turned he jumped into the wagon and in aoout | three minutes bad the safe open and the contents | put into one bag, On the y back to New York | they threw the sate overboard.
