~ between trains at Chicago, where he
was joined by detective Then the
two journeyed east. At Buffalo, Mr..
Mahan followed instructions and tele-
graphed ahead that he was coming. and
the detective disguised himself, it being
understood that they should keep apart
from that time until the final wind-up
came. At NeWburg he got off the tfain
and walked along the platform when he
was suddenly jostled against and looking
around, he saw man who said: ''Ex-
cuse me, I thought knew you, and in
his hand was the telegram with the
s'green ink'' characters. The two
walked along and entered the hotel to-
gether, and the fellow said to him: 81 m
sorry, but the old man could not get
away and you will have to go down to
New York and see him if you have the
money and are prepared to do business.
They ate breakfast and the capper paid
for it, and also paid for tickets to New
York, to which place they iourneyed
together, but without speaking, the in
struction being for Mahan to keep
hundred feet behind on their way from
the car to the business place. In the
meantime the detective was keeping a
reasonable distance behind the two.
The capper wound around the buildings
in the vicinity of the river and finally
started down a narrow alley, and here
the detective hailed two policemen who
were given the tip. Mahan followed
his man down the alley and when he
saw him walk up plank and unlock
the door of a warehouse which rested
on piling over the river his healt failed
him, but, as he saw the detective in the
vicinity, he went in and the door was
shut behind him, and he found himself
in a large, unlighted room. His situa-
ton was not an enviab]e one, but with
gun in each pocket he thought he
would be able to hold his own for q
short time, just as the capper called
to his confederate in another room the
policemen broke open the door and the
two men tried to escape but were cap
tured. There was nothing in the build.

the men had " good sized slungshot
which was the only weapon they pos
sessed. The men were tried and sen
fenced to five years in the penitentiary
on the charge Of using the mails for

Mr.. Mahan fully thinks that their
game was to get him into the building
and there he was to be knocked down

been accepted by Republican platforms,
and does not desire to be classed as q,
free trader. The charge that he was
disciple of the latter doctrine probably
grew out of the fact, that, as an instruc-
tor, he deemed it his duty to give both
sides of the question and left it to his
pupils to make up their own minds as
to the merits of either. This is the ex
tent of his ofense, he says, and we are
glad that it ends there. 1t has hal its
effect, but perhaps Mr.. McCleary will
be forgiven by Republicans for not
having brought it about Intentionally.
Regarding Mr.. Bucks intentions the
St.Peter Herald reports an interview as
follows: While coming UP fromSt. Paul
onMonday aHerald reporter enjoyed for
time the society of Daniel Buck, of
Mankato who was just returning from
Florida. When confronted with the
statement that the alliance and demo-
Gratis proposed to run him for congress
he said that he would not accept GER
titcate of election to the office. Further
that his business was assuming sucn
proportions as to remove him entirely
from the field of politics. He also said
that he was perfectly disguised with
politics and the dirty methods employed
IN politics in these degenerate days.
