This was the. nnmo Inscribed upon mo

about 9 o'clock by a stranger who pro-

, , the' business, ho considers tho cx
Plenco cheap at the price.
After registering tho stranger, whoso
appearance Indicated nothing to arouse sus
picion In the mind of tho night clerk, throw
on tho counter,
sample trunks
"These nro for my two
and I wont tho largest samplo room you
have In the house."
Night Slcrk Snyder assured him (hey
had Just tho Bample room ho wanted and,
calling tho porter, turned over tho baggage
checks to him. He then assigned th
stranger to a room on tho second Hoor and
offered him tho key to It. II. L. Cummlngs,
however, was not prepared to retire uo

Hetween the p Mrs or smoKo irom tno
fragrant Havana ho aBkcd tho clork where
tilu telegraph ofllce was. "The fact of tho
mttcr s he said, "on starting out on
ohlleed to leave my wife,
this trip was " ''Ke t ny wiip,
who wns sick, In New ork and I murfl send
her n telegram tonight without fall." Ho
wn8 loi,i tnc telegraph ofllco was but a few

, on kfl ?
tho clerk a check for $35 on a bank In Lo-
Kansport, Ind., which ho said was from
thc noU8c Do represented.
....
Cautious, ltiit Advances Money,
..j wouj be much obliged if you would
glvo mo about $10 on this. I supposo my
two sample trunks are ample security for
such amount.'
Now, it happened that tho hotel had
,)c(,n touchc,i oniy a fow wcckj, aK0 oy tuo
enterprising Mr. Dennett, alias Mr.
Spraguo, and tho clerk was doubtful about
the1 propriety of cashing any stranger's
cllecki Thu nianager happened to bo out,
but tho clerk knew whero he could reach
him by tolcphono nnd ho referred tho mat
ter to him. The answer camo back to ad
vanco Mr. Cummlngs $5 or $0 on tho check.
Tho clerk bud nothing less than a $20
bill In tho drawer and, thinking that a
man with two largo sample trunks ought
to be good for that amount, handed him tbo
$20.
Carefully folding tho bill In his pocket'
book, ' Mr. Cumuilngs slowly sauntered
toward tho bar, whero ho purchased a
drink. Clerk Snyder, thinking tho matter
over, camo to the conclusion that perhaps
ho had douo wrong In giving the stranger
tho entire $20. Ho Bent tho porter after
Mr. Cummlngs with a request to seo hlra.
"Certainly," said the plaustbln stranger,
I shall be delighted to seo Mr. Snyder,
Tell him I will bo thero just as soon as 1
finish this glass of beer." Tho porter car.
cled back tho message, but that was t'nn
last Been of "Mr. Cummlngs." As soou ris
tho porter's back wob turned ho left th
bar by tho street entrance.
When tho porter went to tho depot for
tho trunks ho learned they existed only
In tho Imagination of tho fertile Mr. Cum
mlngs. From the railroad peoplo ho
learned, however, that tho checks formed
part of n number that had been stolen a
few days beforo nt Albla, la.
Work Nmiic Cnme In Omulin.
Yesterday morning tho pollco were noti
fied and A. J. Anuls, chief clork of tho
hotel, went to Omaha to confer with tho
pollen authorities there. Investigation on
the othur sldo ot tho rlvor disclosed tho
fact that Mr. Cummlngs had victimized two
hotels thero In a similar way.
Shortly after f o'clock Friday evening,
accompanied by a woman, ho appeared at
the I'll x ton hotel, whero ho registered as
J. W. Williams and wife, nnd asked for a
room with a bath nnd an additional room
tor samples. Hero ho left two baggage
checks calling for ramplo trunks from
Albla, la., to Omaha. With flic saruo plnus
Iblllty that ho .evidenced in Council Uluffs
he succeeded In securing $20 on a check
for $40 on tho same bank In Logansport,
Ind.
After being assigned a room ho nnd his
wlfo sauntered out for a breuth of fresh
air. I3ut they never camo back.
Shortly beforo 8 o'clock he registered at
tho Millard hotel as II. L. Cummlngs, the
same namo ho used on this sldo of the
river, and hero ho lost no tlmo In getting
a check for $35 on tho samo bank lu Lo
gansport cashed In full. Adopting the
samo tactics as ..t the 1'axton hotel, ho
snuntered out to get a breath of fresh air.
Tho search for fresh nlr took him in tho
direction of a Council Uluffs car, which
ho promptly boarded.
Tho Ilnrllngton railroad authorities have
taken tho matter up and they expect to
havo Mr. J. W. Williams, alias Mr. H. L.
Cummlngs, soon In tho tolls. He Is be
lieved to bo working his wny south.
