Waterloo gang of holdups linked by arrest of Tom Hall
Police and sheriff say arrest of Tom Hall ties a group of Waterloo stickup men to a string of check forgeries and holdups. Hall named Ansel Conners and E H Maxfield as gang members, with Maxfield previously under suspicion and Conners captured in Davenport and brought to Waterloo for examination. The trio may explain a Highland Street car holdup and other incidents, as renewed evidence is said to exist to fix responsibility.
