[ TRAMPS TURY BANK ROBBERS Many Peouliar Facts Are Revealod by In- vestigation of Towa Company. HOBOES ARE CARRYING NITRO-GLYCERINE Use of 8o Men Aoquire Knowledge o plosive in Working and Go on Row afe Crackers, an investigation of the causes of K0 mauy bank robberies in the last few months. At the present rato bank robberies of this year will make the loases of the casually companies five times as heavy as in any previous year. The resuits of the investl- ) | gation by the Bankers' Casualty company here reveal some peculiar facts. Most of the robberies are made not by experts, but by common hoboes. Banks in small towas are invariably the victims and safes are blown open by nitro-glycerine. It appears from the investigation conducted by Pink- erton detectives that a large percentage of the tramps are carrying niiro-g cerine. Those who have been taken in custody in many cltles of the middle west, among them Minneapolls, St. Paul, Kansas City and other towns of less size, are ulmost in- arlably found to have nitro-glycerine on thelr persons in considerable quantities. It has been found that most of these worked on the Chicago drainage canal, where large quantities of nitro-glycerine were used Practically all of the employes became fa- mililar with its use and since that work is completéd many of them have taken to the road and used the knowledge they have acquired in cracking safes in small villages, where old-fashioned safes were used. Ad- ditlonal proof is estublished by the fact | that of ninetcen convictions for bank rob- bery secured by the Bankers' Casualty company seventcen have been ordinary bums, | In the case of the estate of Frank § Law against Frank Starzinger the supreme court afirmed the declsion, dismissing the actlon, which was for $5,000 damages, It was alleged by A. F. Bissell, administrator of the estate, that Law drank himself to death. The action was brought on the theory that the liquor seller was responsi- ble for the death. It was proved that death did not result from liquor, but the courts hold that Law must bave consented to taking the liquor. Supreme Court Opinio Today's opinions were: Cornelius Ryan, jr., against City of Du- buque, Dubuque diatrict; reversed, Htato against Charles Bishop, Mitchell district; affirmed. Charles McGlassen against John T, Scott, Judge, Mahaska district; rev State against Mrs. H. alstrict; affirmed. A. F.
