BROTHER WAT HOLD-UP —o¢2———_— uNOIT' 00 Mystery of Robber Who Stole $1,271 from Factory in Newark and Shot Himself Twice When Capture Was Certain, Cleared in Hospital. ———$ | | + One of the two men in the ottice of Joseph S, Mundy, of Newark, yesterday, when a lone bandit entered and stole $1,200 at the point or a revolver, was a brother of the bandit. This was established to-day in St. | James's Hospital, where the would-be robber is dying from the two bul- let wounds he inflicted on his own head when ine saw tit escape from the prompt pursuit organized after he had grabbed tie money was im- possitle. The name of the man who attempted to steal the money is Martin Oleson, His brother, William Lawrence Oleson, was stenographer in Mr. Mundy’s office, He asserts that he did not know Martin was in Newark, although he admits that he wrote to him after going to work! for Mr. Mundy three weeks ago. After he had recognized his wounded | brother in the hospital and been recognized in return, Police Capt, Cor-| bett ordered that he be placed in custody Not until to-day would the wounded desperado reveal his right name. | He was told by the sisters in the hospital that he was on the point of | death, Then he confessed that his name was Martin Oleson, and sald that his home was at No, 185 Island Brook avenue, North Bridgeport, Conn, He begged that his wife and two children be sent for. BROTHER OF HIS STENOGRAPHER, When Mr. Mundy learned that the name of the man in the hospital was Oleson it occurred to him that this was also the name of his sten- ographer, a young fellow of refined appearance who has been In his em- ploy but a short time. Young Oleson had letters of recommendation from Harrison & Co., coal dealers, of Broad street, Newark, aud had given eat-| isfaction from the first Mr, Mundy went to the young man and asked him If he had a brother} named Martin. After some hesitation he replied that he had. Then he was asked if he knew that Martin Oleson had entered the Mundy offices yesterady and stolen the greater part of the payrool at the point of a pistol. He replied that he did not, It was suggested to him that it might be well If he would go to the hos pital and see the wounded man, He agreed willingly and walked trom the factory at No. 22 Prospect street with Mr. Mundy, J. N. Wright. a member of the firm, and an Evening World reporter. Capt, Corbett was standing on the corner, Under his direction the po- lice have been trying to prove that the would-be robber was an escaped convict from Snake Hill Penitentiary, He sald he was working along his own lines and refused to go to the hospital with the young stenographer, but when the party arrived Capt. Corbett was there, | IDENTIFICATION IN HOSPITAL, | Young Oleson was taken to the room in which his brother {s confined. There were several doctors and nurses present and a policeman in plain clothes name! Paul, The young man walked to the bedeide of the wounded desperado, glancec at him and said: “Yes, that is my brother’ He started to move away, but Mr. Mundy stiggested that he had best have a talk with his brother and try to clear up the mystery of how Mar- tin Oleson came to kuow that there would be a roll of money in the office, at a certain time on Friday afternoon, “Do you know me, Martins’ asked the younger man, approaching the | id, “Yes,” replied the wounded prisoner, without openitfg his eyes, that you, Will?” “Why did you do this thing yesterday?” queried the stenographer. ‘Why did you put me in this awful light?” “I don’t know what you are talking about,” was the answer, done anything.” “Martin,” pleaded the young man, “‘please tell them how you came to do what you did, Don't you realize how important it is for me to have you clear this up?” leson appeared to be only half-conscious, He repeated that he had done nothing and that he didn't know what all the talk was about, Mr. Mundy questioned him, but could get nothing definite. } “Did you see your brother when you entered my office yesterday with a pistol?” asked Mr, Mundy. “I don't know what you are talking about,” was the reply, QUESTIONING HAD TO CEASE, | The doctors refused to atiow further questioning. William Oleson was! about to leave the hospital when Capt, Corbett decided to hold him. Be-| tore going to the station-house the young man answered a number of ques-| tions and finally made a statement. | He said that he last saw his brother a month ago, At that time Martin was living in this city at No, 392 Manhattan avenue, After going to New- ark, William sald, he wrote several letters to his brother at that address “Did you ever,” he was asked, “mention to your brother that Mr. Mundy paid off his men on Friday afternoon and explain that his bookkeeper, Mr. Ten Eyck, always drew the money, amounting to Mv+at $1,600, from the bank and placed it in the pay envelopes in the officey Friday, you know, fs an unusual day for payday.” Oleson eaid that he had never written of payday to his brother. ov he admitted that he might have mentioned it. “L didn't know he was in Newark,” protested the young man, “I didn't recognize him when he entered the office yesterday, He had his face down in his coat collar, and his hat was pulled over his eyes, I was so frightened by the sight of the revolver that I didn’t look at him. He spoke in a very low tone, so I did not recognize his voice.” This part of the story of the young man is corroborated by Mr. Ten| Eyck Young Oleson says that his father lives at No, 606 Main street, Bridge- | port, while his mother lives at No. 2192 Eighth avenue, in this city, Mar- tin, he says, has been away from home for several years and was not on/ good terms with his family. He intimated that Martin had had trouble with his wife “T haven't later THOUGHT HIM A TRAVELLING SALESMAN, it “How did you come to be so friendly with him?" the young man was asked. | “He owed me money,” replied the brother, “and I was trying to get it! from him. I believed he had a job as a traveling salesman and was mak- ing good money. I can’t see why he should attempt to steal,” An Evening World reporter learned to-day that for more than an hour previous to the robbery Oleson stoon in the front window of a saloon at Prospect and Ferry streets, Newark, from which he had a view of the front door of the factory. He saw Mr, Ten Eyck go to the bank and saw him re- turn carrying the money. As soon as Mr. Ten Eyck entered the factory building Oleson left the saloon, walking rapidly. He got to the office while Mr. Ten Eyck was tak- {ng off his goat. The money was lying In a heap on a desk—$1,600 In small , bills. “Is Mr. Mundy in?” asked Oleson of Mr, Ten Eyck } ““e je out of the city to-day,” replied the bookkeeper. “Well, | want that money,” was the startling information that came! next, “Up with your hands.” With this he displayed a revolver, which he flourished recklessly. Mr. | soo Ten Eyck and young Oleson were alone in the offices and also on the floor. | The robber made a dive with his left hand and gathered most of the roll, which he stuffed in his inside pocket. “If you attempt to follow me downstairs I will shoot you dead,” he de- clared. Mr. Ten Eyck did not attempt to follow, Instead he jumped to a speak- ing tube connecting with the office of Supt. B. Judson Jennings on the ground floor, ‘ “Catch that man going out!” he called. “He has just stolen our pay- roll.” Jennings ran out of his office just as the thief was disappearing | through the docr.
