BIQ MULTITUDE OF VISITORS Close to Ob Ilaadred Tnoasand People Landed la Denver O. A. R. Wnt For the benefit of many Inquirers within and without the organization of veterans, the passenger department of the Denver A Rio Grande railway baa compiled the following figures of the attendance at the recent Grand Army of the Republlo en campment held In Denver: Tickets from territory east of Colorado validated at Colorado, common points, all lines 70,177 Tickets from Colorado state points, all lines 13,610 Tickets from all territory north and west of Ogden 224 Tickets from V'tah points 126 Tickets from Wyoming J70 Tickets from Texas and other points south of Colorado line, estimated.... ISO Tickets from other territory not named, estimated 600 Total 86.236 In addition to the above no less than T.600 passengers to and from the Pacifies coast passed through Denver encampment week, nearly all of whom stopped off. These tickets are not Included In the above figures. They would bring the aggregate attendance to 92.728. Gerrlt Fort, assistant general passenger agent of the Union Pacific, has returned from Denver and reports the people of Den ven have all kinds of money since the re cent Grand Army of the Republic encamp ment. They are pleased with the result of the encampment and figure at least $2,000,000 I was left there as a result of the Influx of ! people. This Is figuring on a basis of 130 per person who visited Denver during that time. He said: "Denver la beginning to realize the Im mense benefits from reunions of this kind. All of the merchants as well as the hotel proprietors made money In chunks. They will all work together In the future for this class of business." CROWE'S FIRST PLOT FOILED 'William A. IMnkerton Stands for Kerr Story of Aliened Kid naper. CHICAGO, Oct. 14. William A. Pinkerton declared today that Pat Crowe, the al leged kidnaper of Edward Cudahy, Jr., was suspected of complicity In a well organized plot to kidnap and hold for 150,000 ransom, the child of a prominent New York railroad magnate. The name of the magnate was refused by Mr. Pinkerton, but ho con sidered the plot of such Importance to notify the railroad man. The Cudahy kid naping at Omaha, occurred several weeks after the New York plot was discovered, and as the plan followed there was along exactly similar lines, Crowe's name was never entirely removed from the Investi gation. According to Pinkerton investigation went to show that Crowe had threatened to assassinate General Counsel Spencer of the Chicago, Burlington & Qulncy Rail road company, at Hannibal or St. Joseph, Mo., and then kidnap a member of Mr. Spencer's family. When shown the Chicago dispatch In his cell at the county jail Fat Crowe had this to say: - - "The whole thing is laughable and with out one grain of truth. Pinkerton has been knocking me right along and' if I ever tell what I know about him he had better watch out. I am In Omaha now and any thing Pinkerton wants to say about me will not hurt. I may have taken a little gold from a few rich men, but, thank God, I never shot a worklngman In the back and allowed widows and orphans to suffer." It was not difficult to perceive that Plnkfrton's reputed statement did not have a soothing effect upon Crowe. Crowe took occasion to enihelliHh Mr. Pinkerton in a word picture of the rarest English, a little too rare to print. But It was plainly mani fest that betwixt one Pat Crowe and W. A. Pinkerton there Is no chord of love that could not be broken with a crowbar. "When they were after me here five years ago Pinkerton wrote to me and said If I would let him have the honor of ar resting me he would give me every cent of the reward offered. "Pinkerton is not allowed in the state of Nebraska and you may put It down that I will be leading an honest life right here In Omaha when this so-called great de tective will not be allowed to operate here." DEATH RELIEVES SUFFERING Huirh Brown, Fonnd Unconscious Few Days Aa-o, Passes Away at t'larkaon Hospital. Hugh Brown of Council Bluffs, the old man found early last Tuesday morning at Twenty-fifth and Howard streets by Harry Walsh and John Kosters in a semi-conscious condition, crawling on his hands and knees, died Saturday morning at Clarkson hospital after having lingered between life aad death since located In Omaha. The body was taken to the home of Brown's sou-ln-law, E. Hicks, at Council Bluffs. Burial will be at Kansas City. Just what happened to Brown may never be known. He left his home last Monday evening without any money and was next heard of In Omaha. He was subject to fits of absent-mindedness and the belief is ho Just wandered away and fell down and Injured the back of bis head. His relatives searched In Council Bluffs all last Monday night for him and notified the Omaha po lice. Brown was 6S years of age. Locomotor Ataxia Cared!

REASON FOR ISSUING ORDER Explanation of Action In Numbering; Rnral Mall Boxes Instead of Islna- Names. Congressman Kennedy and Senator Mil lard received from the fourth assistant postmaster-general, a letter giving the reasons which actuated the Postofflce de partment In making the order providing for the numbering of mail boxes on rural free delivery routes, and authorizing the de livery of mall by numbers instead of by names. The letter says the department has found It difficult to make prompt de liveries of mall on rural routes, where there are several families of the same name residing on the routes, and in order to overcome the difficulty and enable the post masters to furnish the carriers with com plete rosters of patrons on their routes. It was thought best to number the boxes and show opposite the number of each box the names of all persons entitled to receive mall at that box. The department suggests that the order made, simply extended to the holders of rural boxes the privilege given holders of boxes In postoffices, under the postal laws and regulations which provide mail addressed merely to the number of the box may be delivered to the holder, so long as no Improper or- unlawful business Is conducted In that manner. The execution of that part of the order extending the provisions of the postal laws and regulations, applicable to postofflce boxes to rural free delivery boxes, has been deferred Indefinitely, pending the re sult of an official Investigation, which Is now in progress, and when that lnvestl- gatlon is completed, atial action will be taken, by the department John Hussie Hardware Co.

Fead Bays , m LI'ttle Farm. The trend of city hall denizens toward the simple life has received a fresh Impetus from the announcement of John W. Fead, bond clerk In the office of the city treas urer and one of the best paid appointees at the hall, that he is building a house and stable and sinking a well on a modest little farm at Forty-eighth and Martha streets. Borne time ago Mr. Fead bought five acres of land. He has set out fruit trees and vines on part of It. The remainder will be devoted to vegetable, garden truck and chicken raising. In addition to the com fort, exercise and health he expects to de rive from his rural holdings Mr. Fead Is hopeful of material results which will go a long way toward paying taxes and re plenishing the coal bin. The house and sta ble are now In course of construction and the well Is making rapid pace toward water, so that high or low rates will have no effect on the pocketbook of the owner. Mr. Fead plans to move onto his new place before the wintry winds begin to howl. MAN PAYS ONLY HIS OWN FINE Remits to Police Court and Leaves Wife to Languish In Jail. When Mr. and Mrs. McCready were ar raigned In police court Saturday morning on charges of disturbing the peace by fight ing both were fined $1 and costs by the police judge. The husband paid his own fine and left his wife to languish In Jail. At the time of the arrest a few evenings ago McCready furnished a cash bond for his own release until the trial, while the woman remained In jail all night. The next morning she offered her gold watch for security and was then released. The trouble Is said to have been caused by a little domestic difference. MAV'L 1'ndertttklng Co., est. lWt.
