ARREST JOHNSON
AS SAFE CRACKER
Sheriff's Deputies and Private
Detectives Suspect Him
of Vancouver Burglary. ,
PRISONER IS EX-CONVICT
Burglar's Tools Found In Posses
sion of Yeggman, Who Desper- .
ately Resists Cap1lrs Accom
plices I'nder Surveillance.
In the person of a habitus of North
Knd resorts who gave the name of Harry
Smith, but who was identified as Charles
Johnson, alias "Slim," a notorious yegg
man and ex-convict, the Sheriffs office
1b convinced that the perpetrator of many
recent burglaries that have baffled the
authorities of this city and surrounding
towns, is now safely behind the fcars.
Johnson was arrested at 8:20 o'clock last
night at Third and Ankeny streets by
Deputy Sheriffs Beatty and Leonard, as
sisted by O. H. Kulpcr, superintendent of
Pinkerton's Detective Agency, and J. J.
Fitzgerald, local detective for the O. R.
& N. When Johnson was searched at the
county Jail, a skeleton key, a pair of key
nippers, two short pieces of candle and
other articles usually included in a bur
glar's kit, were found In his possession,
besides JS4.50 in cash.
Two other suspects, who gave their
names as Tommy Smith and Tommy
Featherstone, were also taken Into cus
tody by the officers, but were later re
leased, as it is believed they had had no
dealings with Johnson. Johnson offered
considerable resistance at first, and It
was found necessary to place him in irons
before he would submit, stoutly maintain
ing his innocence to the last.
When questioned at the county jail,
Johnson showed himself an adept in re
turning evasive answers, and boldly de
fled the officers to prove that he. tiad
been implicated in the recent robberies,
or In any other crimes of like nature. He
was locked up for the night, and a charge
of burglary will be preferred against him
this morning, as Deputy Sheriffs Beatty
and Leomtrd are positive that they have
sufficient evidence. They also believe It
Is only a question of a few hours when
Johnson's supposed .accomplices will be
apprehended, as they have been located
and are now under surveillance'
StiU T"p From Lane County.
The prison records of the State Peni
tentiary at Salem show that Johnson
was sent up from Lane County. Oregon
June 24, 1904, for three years for bur
glary, and that he was discharged
August 14 of last year. At the time
of his commitment to the State Prison
his age was given as 25 years, height
6 leet 1,1 H Inches, and weight 158
pounds, j It was represented at that
time that he was a cook by occupa
tion, and a native of Litchfield, 111.
where he has relatives.
The description 1n the prison records
tames exactly with that of the man
under arrest, and what makes the Hen
tlfication more positive Is the strik
Ing resemblance between the photo
graph of Charles Johnson, the ex-convict,
and the man arrested last night.
Johnson was also Identified by Inmates
of the County Jail, when brougt In, as
a former Inmate of the State Penlten
tlary. and the fact that he had bur
friar's tools In his possession at the
time of arrest is also taken as evi
dence that he Is at least one of a gang
responsible for a number of recei
daring robberies.
Credit Is due Deputy Sheriffs Beatty
and Leonard for their part In running
the crook down. When the Sheriffs of
fice received a tip last Wednesday
niglit tnat Johnson was In this citv.
and that he was mainly responsible for
the Vancouver and Llnnton robberies
as well as the exploit at Gresham. the
two officers lost no time In trailing
mm down. Beatty assumed the dis
guise of a professional hobo, and in this
way succeeded in performing some
ciever detective work among habitues
of the North Knd. Leonard was equal
ly effective through his faculty for
Identifying suspects from photographs
in tne snerm s rogues gallery.
Cached Powder and Fuse.
According to lonard. immediately
after his release from the State nrlson
last Summer. Johnson Is known to have
lcrt a quantity of fuse and powder with
a Iorth Knd saloonkeeper for safekeen
lng, and It Is believed this evidence will
be used against him when he is placed
on trial, as It Is alleged that he Intended
to commit a robbery of some sort with
this material.'
Leonard recognized Johnson at Wil
lows. Cal.. last May, while bringing a
prisoner up from Los Angeles, and also
saw him on the East Side July 11. When
the Northern Pacific safe at the Van
couver depot was robbed last Tuesday
night and $"iio in coin and a number of
checks taken. Leonard at once suspected
that Johnson had a hand In tho affair,
and the revelations that were subse
quently made through the efforts of
Jailer Beatty and Petectlves Fitzgerald
and Kulpcr satisfied Sheriff Stevens
that he was Justified In causing the
arrest

pointed by the physicians Tuesday

protests that had been raised against
" The work of the physicians will be
largely educational and no regular in
spection of the pupils collectively will
be made. Printed Instructions to the
teachers will be Issued by. the Health
Board, outlining the symptoms of com
mon diseases, so that the instructors
may detect them. When a child Is
suspected of being 111. the physician as
signed to that school will make an ex
amination of the case.
Under no circumstances will the In
specting physician take charge of the
cases that come under their notice.
When contagious diseases are found
the child will be sent home, the Health
Board notified and the dwelling quaran
tined. In less serious cases the child
ren will merely be sent home and It
will be left for the parents to summon
a physician.
The inspectors wiH also report to
the Health Board unsanitary condi
tions that are found in the schools.
There will be special investigations
of the opportunities for recreation that
are given the pupils. In some schools.
It Is said, the only place the children
have lor recreation la the basement.
