The Ex-senator Has a Hostile Meet
ing With James Bush, and Asks for
Police Protection.
DENVER, Col July 20.-There was hos
tile meeting at the Windsor hotel between
ex-senator FL. A. W Tabor and Mr.. James
Bush, the brother of William Bush, TabOr's
former friend and partner While the diff
entity seemed to be of a personal nature he
tween the two gentlemen, the real anirnus,
it is generally believed, comes from the hi
cation pending between Tabor and William
H. Bush. The suit of Tabor against Bush
for embezzlement In which Bush was ac-
quilted, was the. origin of the bad
feeling. This suit for the recovery OF
81 900 is still pending, while William
Bush has a suit against Tabor for 500, 600.
The Immediate cause of the difficulty was a
little squabble about hack-stand in front of
the Tabor opera house. BY Tabor's direction
Chief-of-Pol Smith had instructed his of
fcers to allow certain space in front to be
occupied by the haclCmen. James Bush, who
is proprietor of a livery stable, obtained per-
mission from the saloon proprietor to
stand one of his hacks in this reserved
place Mr. Tabor objected. James Bush

against him, when Tabor refused TO talk
with him Bush thea defed him and
all his relations, and heaped upon him
all manner of abuse and epithets.
Tabor, believing his life to be in
danger, quickly stepped into the elevator and
returned TO his room. Subsequently he
called upon the, authorities of the city A
special officer was detailed to guard him, and
by instruction OF the chief the entire police
force was placed at Tabor's command in the
event he should need any of them. Mr..
Tabor was interviewed by press CORE
spondent during the afternoon while he was
under guard of an officer, and he stated pos
itively that the quarrel which Jim Bush tried
to force upon him was only a pretext for a
chance to kill him. He said be felt that his
life was constantly in danger He did not
fear any personal harm from Bill Bush, but
he believed that Jim Bush would kill him on
the slightest provocation
