MONTREAL, Dec. PA yer in

Of campaign against the Liberal
candidate, using undue influence
amounting virtually to intimi-

livered sermons from the pulpits de-
claring that the Liberal party was
composed of impious, revolutionary
men and of atheists protesting doc
trines condemned by the church, and
threatening the faithful with spirit
ual penalties If they voted for the
Liberal candidates. The case is eX-
citing much interest in political and

originated on the Northwestern system
in the spring Of 1887.
The story is called the Mystery of
Check No. 17,201, or What Became of
Emil Raepke?" The facts We're recent
~ revived by the finding of the miss
ing check in q desk in the Northwest
err offices. but the mystery Of the miss
ing man has not yet been solved. The
story has improved with age, and after
the railroad system of forwarding
communications from one official to an
other to connecting lines, the investi
cation is still going the rounds of the
offices in the West. Each week the
batch of communications increases, as
some official attaches thereto his opin-
ion as to the disappearance of the
missing man.
Early in 1887 Emil Raepke turned up
missing. Soon after the general bag
gage department of the Northwestern
received from San Francisco an ordi-
nary brass baggage check, which read
