French Government Wants AmericanCrook who Makes Uet-Away
From Penal Settlement
London, June i6.—The. prisoner dead body, .supposed- to bt thatA, of of his revolver.
s-jgtainst whom extradition proceeding.*'
arc being taken hy the French government' and who appeared at Hew
street police court , last week is
watched ..day and night. If he is really thefanions Edward Guerriu, there
is no doubt that he is one of the
most dangerous criminals' alive. . So
far he has not admitted he is Human, although■ the . police are (juinj
confident of liis identity.
Giierrlnls 'life"story is" remarkable.
After serving several'sentences of •imprisonment,he was.convicted of blowing up with dynamite the strong
room of the American express company , in .Paris, and was sent ■ to
serve a life sentence to Devil's island1
tbe desolate and pestilent place near'
Cayenne where; Dreyfus was confined.
The story of his escape as told to
an old confederate reads, like '- the
adventures of a hero of a boy's ,bpok
of adventure.-Already, if we are to
believe his own story,-'. he' was planning to escape when*on the outward
voyage to Cayenne. His yrst move tt>
wards . regaining his- liberty was , to
get .on friendly* terms with -a warders'1
wife, a matter which ht complacent-
■ ly observes was not very difficult, the
fact being that he is a remarkably
handsome man. Through her he obtained money from friends in Chicago, wh'erisA'he had spent a good
many years of his life, arid presentr
lv Ue contrived by means of the
same, friendly agency to 1>e ordered'
.with two other prisoners, from his
cell near the.military headquarters to
a spot at the-extreme end of the island. Soon, after-arrival here the
the prisoner, was found on the island and was identified by the author
ities as that of Guerrin.. The funeral
took place,' a wooden board -with
Guerrin's- namt on it 'was "put oyer
the grave and the name of Guerrin
was expunged from the records ' of
the convict settlement.
Ilut first of all he had to effect his
escape to the mainland, ia task of ex
ti-aoi-dinury" ;*i.-ril and dilliculty. The
Hi rec uieii had food, water aad supplies'- and money, while Guerriu had'
a revolvtr. With some rough tools,
which' they hud also brought''with
lliem, the confederates, workiyig nighti
and day, made a sort of boat by
scooping out the trunk of a fallen
tree,as well > as paddles. "
When their dugout 'was ready they
eiiVlrarked oil*: night nnd "set out 'in
tlie direction of. Dutch Guiana. Dutch
Guiana was a long way off, but the
men did not dare laud at any place
'within. 200 miles of the. place of
captivity. They took it in turns,, to
do the' paddling and to sleep..
Their Giiertvn noticed'that his two
coiiipp-nions would whisper toj^'tlner'i
when they thought he was asleep,
and he also noticed that they were
quite willing to paddle ' while *. he
rested. He kept his,cars open and
heard thorn planning to=inurder. him
and rob him of his money. Guerrin
lay still in the bottom of tlu* vessel
gripping his revolver, and when hifj
companions crept toward liim, with
knives'in tlu-ir hands he pointed the
muzzle.at them. The men were alarm
ed and were ready, to promise anything if he; would uot shoot: He
simply 'ordered them to go on pad
three men escaped into a swamp, not dlinpr while lie sat in the stern of the
For three,days and nights this con
tinjiJtU, if' the convicts own statement cau be credited, until at .last
they 'landed, half 'dead from fatigue
and loss of rest and sleep, Gne'rr.n
immediately left the two others, tak
ing with him all he could -lay his
hands on, and leaving them exhausted in the bottom of the boat. "
At length free, Guerrin started to
.tramping northward, but how long
the journey lasted he had no idea,
for in the course of- it he lost all
conntof time. He was captured by n
tribe of Indians but at the md o(
four days ' he"succeedcd in making his
escape.' Another day and night of
wandering follpwcd, ,and then he at
last found himself in. Parniaiibo,
Dutch Guiana, iu such a dreadful
state that'he describes vhimself as
having been a bag of Jicines, rotten,
with fever. There he managed, to -V-uli
sist fbr a^time and taking a ship at
Georgetown, to New York, arrived in
tlie latter city without a penny in
his pocket.; ' „ , ,
Afterwards in : Chicago -he talked
freely with,his old associates on tlie
subject of the extraordinary adven-
tires and he ridiculed tlte notion that
the French -government would ever at
tempt'to secure his extradition.
"When you're dead on their.books"
he said, "yon arc dead all over, and
they are too polite, to think of extraditing dead men." Recent developments have shown that' Giierrin was
mistaken, although it should prove
after all that that the English police
have been at fault'in identiviiij-- him
with the man in custody here. Douibl
less the mystery "of the man's identity, will speedily be cleared up with
the aid ol the French svsleinAot an-
United -Mineworkers of America closed
a two-weeks mefctiUg today. A per
capita .assessment of 50 cents '. per
week oh the working tUettiher.ship ot
the -organization fwasf ordered. It is
estimated that this will bring in a
revenue' of from $125,000 to 5150,000,

wasn't lon-j before I K*jcan' to notice
a spirit of rivalry between them, ,,as
i't were,' just as if Ihey were a couple
of cooks after the jjlteudancc' of the
cop on the beat.
"An" they did llieir work line, too.
If Hill Sykes made a particularly fine
run,with llie i.*",-*", then I'd conu* alonjr
an' >jo hiin a little better with my
eii'-jine. ',""..*,: ', ' ■ "!
"I not. to know the i,tfi just like a
book an' was onto lu*r every whim
and curve.One dav lliere came orders
lor Uill .Sykes' cnj-ine .to, go into the
shop for extensive repairs. It seemed
to atlect the 136 and she'd go over
the road as if she missed 'airiend,
lml alter a week or two"-she was
just as »ood as ever and dorn' great
work, " -
"One day the 135 came out ol the
repair shops resplendent "in a new
coat ol. paint an' looking 'me and -.
dandy.. She'd 1k*cii completely *, over
hauled an' Hie master .mechanic had;
determined to experiment in the new*
style of straight stack an' extension
front lxiiler \\hich were just becoming , fasliioiiali.e on the roads them
days. So he had equipped the .135
with* the new makeup, lo see how it
would ■ go. She cerll.iuly did h»ok
like" available cash when she came
down-the-pike her first trip -from- the
shop.
The new fa)i-gk-d apparatus seemed to put a haughty spirit inlo her, ,
too, an' as she llirlcd past-'lier. sister
II1U136, she. shot the steam .'out of
her cylinder cocks as if to say,-"Well
I guess I got you backed off ' the
boards now, sure pop," I just'-mused"
. and1 said to myself, 'pride gocth lie- ■
lore a fall."
"I'd had experience riiough willii engines, lo know that tliey were a good'
deal like women an' the equipping of
the 136 with the up-to-date- finery,
would make niy .engii.e as sulky as a"
woman whose' neighhor has a princess '
dress an' she hasn't. An' it sure enough did raise old Xi.-l with the 13(1.
"She'd work till right when we first
,1 * -
. started on *a Iriv wiih her, but* if
we chanced,to meet and pass the 135
onihe wny, it was all oil with my
old girl for the rci.t. of thai nin. Tho
engine ilespalchcr came hack on me
about the l3(*i ijoiii' off her feed an"
not doing her usual good work.
"Now,' I says to him', 'you needn't jump all over me about it. that'
engine,is just eating her flues >oiit
, with-jealousy. I;bok how''the 135 is"'
decked out in a straight'-front anl
the 136 still wearin' the - old 7 style'
diamond stack basque.1 - "■ q
, '"Iiul he just gave me the cold stare
and told mc.to beat it with my sentiment and 'deliver the" merchandise
»witli 136 or niebbe I'd like to go
back firing and complete guy primary ■
education on a locomotive. -*
"On top of this, foolish rumors »
were 1>fiiug' circulated among, the men
* saying I was jealous an' was laying
down' on-nie job,-being sore because
-.they would not fix up my, engine.
However'that 1'may be there wasn't
much improvement in lite cuttin' up
of thc-136;,, It- was getting so that
when the 135 would pass-the-136 the
my engine would slide and slip her
wheels an' the very steam in her pipes
would hiss.- - . * "
"One slippery morning I was just
leaving the rotiiidhoti.se with my ,
sulky engine,,an' makijig for*the turn,
table, when I saw the swell appearing'
ing" 135 gliding oil the tabic .to come
into the ,,house. I reached for the
throttle to shut off my engine and
.give llie-m the right .of way when
bango! kahusli! went something on
top of the'boiler and in an instant
»ny side of the cab was filled with
- steam.'. ■
I was so startled by the sudden ex-
■ plosion,.-which, on investigation, prow
cd lo he caused hy the breakin' of
the waler glass on the injector, that
. 1 pulled the llirottlc the wrong
way and under a full head of steam*
like soine-.wild animal lcapin'-on its
■■ prey, we jumped towards our spick
and span rival. Smash! 'we came
together headoh, an1 Whenf-the wreck- -.
ers pulled the engines apart tlie'sty 1*-"
. tsh headpiece of the 135 was. all '..
smashed to smithereens an'- the ,boil:

i-When/both engines (amc'.out of-
- : thc shop they had each been equipped

' Ittrther trouble with, 136. Some,, evil
minded persons declared that I broke
" -.he water glass at .llie critical moment just on ..purpose so-s I could
'.ram the 135 without suspicion reMin'A
on me,, but the future'good performance of the 136 after the" alterations
wore made only goes- lo hear out my
theory that in the' heat of her passion against her livnl'thc ' watei
