STANDARD OIL ROBBER TELLS STORY
Bandit Who Got Fifth of $234,000 Loot In Mail Robbery Yams About Experience
CHICAGO, October 10. Carl Stteler. who spent his $43,000 share of the $234,000 Standard Oil company mall robbery, at Whiting, in 1919 in a two year orgy of a'rplaine and automobile buying and travel, wasr taketi to Indianapolis yesterday for arrignment in the federal court there tomorrow. The wife who was with him while he spent the money and who, when it was gon", took in washings and scrubbed floors to help him. will go to Indianapolis with him. "If Carl is sent to prison, I want to go there too." she uaid last night. "If I hadn't given myself up the police would never have got me,1" Stlcler, who is 23 years old. told interviewers at tho door of his cell. EASY TO ELIDE POLICE "After we switched the mall pack full of paper for the one full of money we left Whiting la a flivver," he said. Half way between Whiting and Chicago we had a blowout. It took the other fellows (Leo and Walter Filipwoknkl, 2136 Haddon avenue) too long to fix it. so I took my ahare ia A bay and climbed on a car. "I put the bag with the J43.00O In It on the (back end of, the car and went inside and jat down. Nobody disturbed
it. i iransierrea at me rirst cross-" line and left the bag a the platform ! again.
I called liessle Jasiak (now Ma wife) and we went to Milwaukee. There I learned that the Filipkowskl boys had been arrested and their share of the loot recovered. Bessie and I came ibaok to Chicago and started to Los Angeles. IHF-FETIKXT "WIIRX BROKE "The police knew that I was mixed up with the robbery, but they never saw me in Chicago. It was the same way when we got to Los Angeles. Even when Bessie and I were married under our own names thry didn't get wise. Wherever we went it was &Iays under our right names. "Why I was pinched for speeding once in Los Angeles and in the courtroom where they fined me my picture, with a reward offer under it, was hanging on the wail. And they nnver recognized me. "After the money gave out and we were broke in Louisville It was different, though. There tho police seemed to be more observing.
It has been the policy of the Parthenon management to give the best possible show that money could buy for the price of admission charged and in accord with that policy it announces that beginning Monday they will feature only one good rlrst class act of vaudeville and will show hi addition some one of the many nuperb specialties that people have desired to eeo, but which have not been shown in this locality.
