H0Zem am, Dec. 30.-The Helena lnde-
pendent of the 9th copies a notice of
w. A Caldwell of Bohemian heing rob-
bed in a hotel at San Francisco. taking
the notice from the San Francisco Call.
The facts of the robbery are probably
correct as copied, but THE Independent
pref1ces the copied report by stating
that white Caldwell. Gallatin county's
well known sheriff, who Is now in
Southern California. had an experience
in San Francisco a few days ago that
does not often fail ito officers of the law.
The sheriff was robbed. but was for
tunate enough TO secure his money,
etc."
Sheriff Caldwell has not been out of
the state of Montana for years, and Is
not at all pleased with the report that
he has been robbed.
w. A. Caldwell. the man referred to
as robbed, Us a brother of Sheriff Cald-
well, who dives on a ranch near, Bel
grade in iuniS county. He is in Caltor-
mia this winter taking a well-earned
vacation, and 1t seems that, having left
his room at the hotel in San Francisco
where he was stopping for a few mo-
ments, a sneak entered his room and
went Through his effects, getting some
thing more than $780, Mr.. Caldwell
missed his money imm ediately upon re-
turning to his room and, by promptly
reporting the irhe1t, was enabled TO cap
ture the thief and regain his money.
Mr.. Caldwell lis one of the represent
ative ranchmen of Galga,tin valley, and
Ii is hard to understand how he could
have been so careless as to have been
the victim of a sneak thiefs light
fingeredness, but Those knowing White
Caldwell would find 1T still harder 90
believe THAT any man could get the
best of Gaffatin county's sheriff, a more
vigtlant man never having filled the
sherff's shoes for Gallatin county.
