THE MESSENGER BOY AN EMsszzLER

Passport Bureau of the State Depart
Incnt Discovers a Youthful Financier-
Washington, June 2S-For some time
the head of the passport bureau of the
state department has been mystified by
receiving demands from persons in va
rious towns and cities for a prompt reply
to their applications for passports or re-
turn of money sent to the department.
In each case the investigation failed to
show that any such applications had been
received. 1t was apparent that stealing
was going on somewhere. and after close
watching Kirk McMurtrie, a messenger
boy, whose duty ii was to get the mail
and carry 1t to the passport bureau, was
suspected. 1t was found that he had been
INDUCING in lavish expenditures and gen.
orally had money to spend. The amount
lost is not yet known, but it is certain to
be well up in the hundreds of dollars,
from the number of complaints received.
1t is said that on last Saturday eighteen
letters, each containing a dollar, were
distracted. McMurtrie has been dis
charged.

COLORADO SPRINGS sUNKo GAME
Police in That City UntangIing Strange
Story.

Denver, June pa special to the News
from Colorado Springs says:
The police are untangling a strange
story. They were called to the Graham
residence to arrest two men who had
attempted to abduct Mrs. Graham, stating
that they wanted to use her at Cripple
Creek in locating gold mines. 1t seems
that Graham has been in the habit of
hypnotizing her and is said to have made
some valuable discoveries by following
directions given by her while in a trance
state. The attempted kidnapers made
their escape before the police arrived,
leaving Mrs. Graham bruised and ex-
hausted from her struggle with them.
The police tonight locked up Graham on
a charge of unlawful cohabitation. They
claim the pair are attempting to fleece
a wealthy Cripple Creek mining man
whom they have in their power.

Angry Constituents Talk of Inflicting
Bodily Harm on Them.

Bodily Harm on Them.
Denver, June 2S.-Almost the entire po-
lice force was occupied last night guard
ing the houses of eight aldermen who
feared violence from their constituents.
An ordinance granting a reduction of Is
per cent. on the schedule of water rates
now in force passed the aldermen by a
vote of to 6. and this aroused the anger
of the people, who attended the council
meeting in force. The measure has a
clause which makes the rates a fixed bur
den on the people for 10 years. Besides.
it is claimed, the reduction is not half
what the public is entitled to under the
company's contract, which calls for
reduction this year to the average rates
charged in Chicago, st. Louis and Gin
cinnati. Although much harsh talk is
heard no overt acts against the alder
men have been committed.

and claim to have been slandered by ar
ticles published regarding their course
in connection with the attempt now being
made to secure a reduction of rates charg-
ed by the Denver Union Water Company.
