_ CONFESSIONS OF A CROOK Member of the ‘Profesh’ Sqneals on his Pals, A Oontrite SAFE BLOWING AND BURGLARY. He Wanted to Die—Stole An Overcoat ~Surveyor Smith and the Squatters—0Odds and Ends =Other Local Rurglars Exposed. For a long time past it has been known to the police of this city that an organ- ized gang of burglars, cracksmen and confidence men was at work in this city. The arrival of these crooks dates baek from about the time of the opening of the exposition and fair last fall. The police have done their best to combat the invaders and in several cases have sue- ceeded admirably. But through the shrewdness of the crooks and want of criminating evi- dence, which it has been impossible to obtain, the anthorities have been unable to thoroughly break up the gang. That this is true may readily be seen by any one who reads the daily newspaper ae counte of burglaries, safe-blowing jobs and other picces of deviltry practiced. One of the gang has turned evidence against the others, and the Bee is pre- pared to give A COMPLETE EXTOSE of this band of crooks. their ns reers ana what the have acc in Omaha and neignboring cities, haunts, daily life, cte., ete. \ The name of the man_who has_given up this important_information will not be disclosed here, for fear of the conse- juences which would inevitably place nis life in xl‘u”,‘( at the hands of s as socia‘es. only necessary to say that he \vvll known to the Yu ice m||| Im-( rey lly been arrested A few he was arrested with two other men on a charge of highway rob- bery. He with one of the men was re- leased a day or so ago, on a technicality, while the third man~ was_convicted and sent to the penitentiary for a term of years. The man who has made this im- portant confession expresses himself s heartily sick of the treatment which he has, since his stay in Omaha, received from his associates, and expresses his in- tention of reforming. Whether these intentions are honest and will be earried out matters little here, It is the intention of this article to give space to THE ST, made by this 1 before been m rluw(ml sral hours yesterd sof his exposure were " teansoribed! to papor. la. muking thiy 100 his only stipulation pame soould not be published. *For, d, *af you do you give me away, 1 nes, ca- mplished their RTLINC ATION! an, and which haye never reporter for the y,and the » no merey for me."

The papers blamed \(;’\rvh'\l( ummings as re- sponsible for the PERPETRATION OF THIS DEVILTRY. ““That's ridiculous, I tell you.
