Show From all over America fresh evidence jxhits in! cgcD i t if- - r 4 f 3 "" f rr I rr Thevehot questioned the guard and, from his description of the men who had bound him, suspected one of the culprits was a man the police had been secretly watching for weeks. They'd seen the man who was registered at a hotel as James Samuel calling at various and even changing banks, some money at the American Express office! Debisschop and Thevenot hurried to Samuel's hotel on Rue Rivoli, but his room was empty. Then they received a mysterious tip that the men who had robbed the American Express office that morning planned to sail for the United States from Liverpool. In the absence of any other leads, the police left immediately for Liverpool and went to the railway station. Luckily, they got in line at the right ticket window, for ahead of them they spotted a man, carrying a leather bag, who bought passage to London. They recognized him as Samuel, whose real name was George Miller. In his bag, the police found conclusive evidence of his part in the robbery a few travelers cheques, 6,000 francs, and some dynamite cartridges. Miller identified his accomplices as Kid McManus, a American safe artist,, and Edward Guerin, a notorious English criminal. After jailing Miller and picking up some information on his accomplices, Debisschop and Thevenot decided to continue their chase to England. With the train on its way to the channel, they left their car for a smoke. well-dress- ed well-kno- wn n.rK Do Nevertheless,, the explosion was so violent it not only blew the door of the safe to its shreds, but scattered contents all over the office. Quickly, the men gathered up the 80,000 francs about in cash and travelers $15,000 cheques, and went out the front door into a street as light as day. Minutes later, a porter arrived to clean up and summoned the police. Inspector Debisschop and Detective Lady Luck continued to smile on the Frenchmen, for in the smoking compartment they found an aristocratic-lookin- g traveler wearing a frock coat and top hat and smoking a big cigar. With another glance at the photo he carried, Thevenot whispered: "It's Guerin!" "Absurd!" said the traveler when the officers confronted him with an arrest warrant. "I'm Thomas Edwards; you're making a grave mistake!" But the train was halted at Amiens and the cigar smoker was taken off. As the police marched him down the platform, they noticed that a woman in a rear compartment rose as if to speak to him, then decided to say nothing. Debisschop and Thevenot deduced that the woman was traveling with Guerin and probably was involved in the ?! robbery; but they had no warrant for her arrest so she was allowed to continue on to England. Some weeks later, when the woman visited Guerin in prison, she too was arrested as an accessory. She proved to be Chicago May, a daring female criminal, who had gone on to London with the bulk of the loot, mostly American Express travelers cheques. She drew five years' imprisonment for her part in the plot Guerin and Miller were sentenced to life imprisonment on Devil's Island, but Guerin's only reaction was to ask for a cigar. The third culprit, Kid McManus, managed to reach Canada, where he soon was captured while another safe. h. cracking Four years later, Guerin fled to England after escaping from Devil's Island. England refused to return him to French authorities, and eventually he settled down and wrote his memoirs. "Crime does not pay, wrote Guerin, perhaps with American Express in mind, for he had made a serious mistake on that job. Even the womanly wiles of Chicago, May couldn't get cash for all those thousands of dollars' worth of travelers cheques. Too late, Guerin discovered that the only person who can use a travelers cheque is the one to whom it is issued. Most of the cheques stolen from Rue Scribe were found unsigned and abandoned in London's Waterloo Station. M I ( 7 ' Family Weekly, Mar. 3, 137 IT f.
