" Confess and T,ell Where
'Third Conspirator Is to
Be Found. :

By ths, capturt and confession of two
youths, who are now behind th bar
In the county Jail, Sheriff Stevens and
Deputy Sheriff Bulger have cleared up
the facta surrounding the robbery of
the postofflce and store at Hillsdale last
Monday night The confessions of the
ypung men Implicate a third youth, who
wUl probably be arrested in Woodbun
by the United- States authorities before
the dav la over, and show that the trio
arranged a clever scheme In which one
of tholr number pretended that he bad
been held up by the others.
Last Monday night a young nan who
later proved to be Earl Hanke entered
the store and asked Postmaster Mercer,
who Is also the storekeeper, to sell him
some tobacco. While Mercer's back was
tiirnit tvn nttiA nun antttreil ths store
r and one covered the postmaster and the
supposed customer wun a revolver,
while the other went through the money
drawer and through the pockets of the
postmaster.' - The man who made the
search went Into the nostofftce deDart
ment, but failed to find the cash till.
He asked the man with the gun about
taking the stsmps. and the latter told
him to leave them alone, as they were
"only looking for Uncle Sam's money."
Bobbers Do o Disturb.
Although Hanke held up his hands
and pretended to be frightened. Mercer
noticed that the robbers did not search
Mm. Hanke lives at lurelwood, and
when he returned home that night he
told his brother that he had been held
up about one mile from the store snd
t and his hat taken from him. The
next morning he went out and found his
bat.
The sheriff and Peputy Bulger ar
rested Hanke at his home yesterday and
held htm on suspicion. Last evening be
confessed that he, "Del" Haywood and
Merl West had planned the robbery, he
playing the part of pretended customer.
He said that West was the man who
handled the gun. He stated that they
obtained about $90. and when they di
vided the spoils he received $10. He
spent IB snd the other $11 was found at
his home, where he had concealed It
West Also Confesses.
West wss arrested early this morning
at First and Madison streets, and after
learning of the confession of his part
ner hs acknowledged his part In the
affair. He said that he obtained $29 and
that Haywood, who has not yet been
arrested, got the remainder, except ths
120 given to Hanke. He had spent prac
tically all of the money, having cele
brated the affair around ths saloons.
West and Haywood are said to have
been in the reform school in their
younger days, but Hanke has never been
In trouble before. West's home Is In
