Burglar Miss Milbrant Captured In Chicago Burglary Case
The seven day police case centers on Minnie Milbrant a youth from 40 Melrose street housed at Sheffield avenue police station. She admitted breaking into Louis Fuller's 1306 Dunning street residence at four in the morning taking $47 dresses a $200 musical instrument and papers worth $2000. Detec tives Lang and Sheehan recovered most items though the $47 was missing. Milbrant confessed saying she acted alone driven by revenge and hunger. She described crawling through a rear window with scissors and retreating with the loot to Southport avenue then riding a trolley to Clybourn avenue before dressing in a Mrs Waller gown bought a hat and shoes with stolen funds. Police noted a woman’s shoe imprint under the window and traced her to prior thefts at Belmont and Perry. Milbrant dismissed by Mrs Taner had not stayed at home since last October and boasted of burglaries to a Chicago Tribune reporter.
