SOUTHERN PACIFIC BILKED
Pay Check Robber Knew Methods of
Railroad Company
Portland. Southern Pacific officials
believe that the strangers who got
away with $1600 worth of pay checks
on an order to which had been forged
the name of an assistant general man
ager, will be found a person closely In
touch with the company and Its af
fairs. No person, It Is held, not thor
oughly familiar with the methods em
ployed in paying off the men, would
have figured out how to work the
scheme so cleverly without detection.
A stranger presented to the pay
agent at the Southern Pacific car
shops in Southeast Portland an order
for the pay checks of 12 engine and
train men, signed by one of the assist
ant general managers. It has been
customary to honor orders In the past
and so the pay agent did not suspect
anything wrong when the stranger
handed out the checks.
Virgil Catching. 19 years old, a
young man who has served one term
in jail, and Dan Riley, alias Sailor
Burke, have been arrested In Vancou

coast closely guarded by armed offi
cers, Sheriff Quine maintains that Dia
mond will be captured when he
emerges from the heavily timbered
districts through which he is travel
