J The Richardson woman was arrested ltn suspicion of having knowledge of the plot. Subjected to a severe sweat fng by the detectives, she finally made J a. partial confession to the effect that the plan to wreck the train was con cocted in her house during a drunken orgy, in which a number of woodsmen "! participated. i Suspicion of the dtectives was. aroused tby he sudden and mysterious disap- jarance of the woman Immediately after the attempted wreck. It was learned that she went to San Francisco nd had later started back to Watson- vlil. She was taken into custody on her return here When confronted with the damaging evidence in possession of ' th sheriff the woman broke down and ?toM of tha Dlot.

Tuesday they again appeared at the amusement resort, and It Is known that they Invested at least 13 In the various amusements. When they appeared again yesterday and started once more to "blow themselves," buying $1 worth of merry-go-round tickets t$ start and offering a double eagle In payment, of ficer Oelsner decided that it w.is time to interfere. After the fun had been stopped the girls were taken before Chief Probation Officer Hadley. Mary proved to be the financier, and she stoutly maintained that her father cave her the double eagle. She said she teised him last Sunday until he gave It to her. As the father a laboring man. working for $2.50 per day, the story of the little girl did not sound probable, ami an In vestigation of the source of Mary's wealth will be made. many years.
