Lowe, was knocked down on Front Street
and robbed of fifty dollars. 1t appears that
Lowe, who is a man of about forty years of
age, had brought to town load of barley
After getting the cash for it, he went into a
saloon to take "a drop for the stomach sake"
He met number of fellows in the saloon
whom he invited to join him in ''sfnile. "
In paying for the same he exposed his we'll
filed pocket book. His new friends then
entertained him, and few more drinks soon
had the countryman very jolly. Starting to
20 to his hotel he was followed, knocked over
and robbed. Special officer Rohm met him
soon afterwards, and getting description of
the men started in search of them. Meet
ing a couple of men between one and two
o'clock whom the countrymen identified as
some of the party he had treated, the officer
arrested them, and with the assistance of
policeman Delaney placed them in jail
The men arrested acknowledged being in
the saloon. Upon searching them no mon
ey was found. They claim to belong to the
steamer Cheever, now at the landing. The
man robbed was shown to Els hotel. The
case viii be investigated this morning
