Crawford left Seattle last Thursday Ia
visit his former homo in Wisconsin. II
was suspected by his friends that his real
mission was TO find Prof. T. III. Din.
ming. who absconded . few days
ago with the funds of Mystic
Jewel lodge, /. o. o. r., Of which
Crawford IN Noble Grand. Just befors
leaving Crawford jokingly remarked to a
number Of friends In the Washington Club
that he was going to hnd Krug. He
spoke 90 soberly thai one or tive
Of his hearers believed him. 0ns
reason Tor ths belief that he was coins
2Itef mug was tnet Nc Wa supposed &c
have inside sources OF information. Craw.
ford's wife Is . sister Of Mira Rad
lof, of Radlo6 mystery notoriety. Radlon
was former partner OF Krug's, and IL IL
said that Krug Was advised OF Radlof's
method OF escape and his present
Whereabouts. Crawford was also supposed
to have the same information through
his connection with Mrs. Radloh's sister
1t transpires. however, that Crawford did
not catch Krug by reasoning that he would
follow the path taken by Radlor, bus
rather that his capture was by the meresi
chance.
Gov. McGraw will today be asked for
extradition papers, 10 guard against this
contingency of Krus changing his mind
about returning without objection.
The fear expressed by Mr. Ronald In his
telegram that an attempt would be made
by Krug to escape by habeas corpus pro.
ceedings had the effect OF extra precau.
tions being taken In Sc. Paul, a. will be
seen by the following special 20 the Posr.
IsrELidsEscER, received at lats hour
this morning:
ST. PAUL, Sept Ia-fspecisLl-At 2 o'eiocs
this morning IL was learned that desperate
effort would be made 20 secure the release Of
Krug on writ OF habeas corpus, so he was 70
