HELD MONEY CHEAP.
How Thieves Were Diverted From
RCbbfng IL Man of Thousands.


Rcbbing Man of Thousands.
From the Chicago Chronicle.
THE recent series of hold-ups makes me
think of the time we came near losing quite
a sum of money! says a prominent bust
ness man. 1T was while we were building
the town of Pullman, and often the pay roll
called for $4,000. We paid the men every
two weeks, and as there was no express Of
fee there then the money had to be carried
In cash to Pullman from this city. One day
it would be taken out there, and that night
It would be put in envelopes for each man
and in the morning given to them.
ION this particular day the detectives had
discovered a plot to waylay the man who was
to take out the money and get it. But they
did not get the information quick enough,
for as they reached the station they saw the
train just pulling out. The young man, not
knowing that he was being followed, was en-
tirey at his ease and threw the valise he car
ried down on the floor and went across the
car to talk to a cousin, who was on the train.
OF course the valise was where he could see
it, but he took no further notice OF 1t than
to see that it was there. The men who had
planned to get the money were completely
staggered and kept close watch on him. At
Sixteenth street the young man stepped TO
the door to assist his cousin to the platform
and went back to the car and sat down and
put his feet on the valise for rest. The
act of going to the door and leaving the vaiise
had completely finished the doubt that the
thieves had entertained, and they came TO
the conclusion that this was not the man. or
left the train at the next stop. And the
money reached the men all right. My friend
has since said that II he had known that
someone intended to rob him 1t would have
rendered him nervous and he would have lost
his nerve and betrayed himself and lost the
money

Northern Pacific earnings continue
to increase at a surprising rate. The

An official of the road yesterday, said
that this month was phenomenal from
a business standpoint. At no period
Of its history has the road earned so
much money during the first half Of
October.
Regarding the report that the North
ern Pacific would declare a dividend
on common stock next month, the Off
cial said it was highly probable that
such action would be taken, as it was
the policy of the company to pay a
dividend on that stock whenever con-
ditiOns warranted it.
The earnings for the first week in
October were $655, 44S, an increase Of
1887 over the corresponding week last
year, or 81 per cent. The earnings from
July 1 to Oct. were 1882, DOG, an in

CHANCE AT THE PORTE.
Way Open for Appointment O.
American Ambassadors.

american
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE refer
ence by the sultan recently in an audi
ence granted to Minister Stratus to the
proposition to increase the rank of the
mission to an embassy has been noted
here with satisfaction. For a year past
our government has been willing to be
represented by an ambassador at Con-
stantinople and has intimated as muth
to the Porte.
The law does not permit the state
department to take the initiative in
such a case, as the president may ap-
point an ambassador only when the
country to which he is accredited first
sends an ambassador to the United
States. When the intimatiOn was con-
veyed to the Porte it IS understood
there were reasons of an economical ma
tUre for not acting upon it faVOrably,
but, N view of what has passed be-
tween Mr. Straus and the sultan, it
is now believed that the former will
soon be made an ambassador, with the
result that his usefulness will be in
creased.

SAW THE SHOOTING.
THE STAR WITNESS TO DATE IN
THE CASE AGAINST GOODBAR.

MINNEAPOLIS-F witnesses We're
examined yesterday in the Goodbar
murder case, and all gave versions Of
the shooting Of Lyle in support of the
theory of the state. Ne1s O'Herrin, a
gambler and prize fighter, was the star
witness to date. He saw both men
before they fired He was just coming
in at the door, upon an invitation from
GCOdbar to take drink, and saw them
plainly. GoOdbar was standing near
the office at the end Of the show case
with his hands down.
GOOdbar cried: Nov [ guess you're
ready and at the same instant he
shot, shot again, and then jumped be-
hind the screen. Lyle then drew his
revolver from his pocket, and as Good
bar reached around the screen to shoot
again, Lyle shot him in the arm. Both
shots went off as one report.
The cross eXamina ton was in an at
tempt to test the witness memory, and
did not shake him much. 1t was Pc
Culiar that as the attorneys had each
man who testified, mark with a cross
the position they saw the two men in,
all varied, but only few inches in
many cases, and at most not more than
a few feet. The case will be in trial
again this morning.
NelS p. Nelson, of Nelson & MattsOn,
the man from whom GOOdbar is said
to have purchased his cartridges, and
who was unable to be called as wit
ness Saturday on account of his alb
sence at the seat of the Indian troubles
with Battery B, has been wired and
will be placed on the stand tomorrow
morning. He is one of the most i'm
portant witnesses for the state and but

further trouble with the Indians would
probably not be present to testify, be-

MINNEAPOLIS - Slowly but sure
~ the chain of evidence against
the murderer of DR.. Ormond
is being forged by the police, ard
at present on'y che nix is missing. Ever
since the Identification of the body, eff
forts have been made TO find some one
who saw the doctor in this city in the
company Of the man who finally took
his lifo. and it is this alone that keeps
the police from making an arrest. 1t
is prOba BILE however that many hours
viii not pass before the man who COM
nlitted the dastardly crime will he
proclaimed to the people.
The discovery that a mysterious
wagon was driven out over the Calhoun
road on the night Of Sept. %, is regard
ed as a very important clue. There
were two men in the rig, and it is be-
lieVed that the doctors body was III
the vehicle at the time it went out.
A good description of the vehicle and
the horses, one of which was white, has
been obtained and a partial description
of the men. All goes 10 confirm the
suspicious of the detectives who have
been working up the case. 1t is prob
able that OrmOnd had been "doped"
and died the night before and had been
kept twenty-four hours in a house in
this city. During this time his hand
and WRIT had been removed and every
letter or paper which he had in his
pockets was removed.
One of the peculiar cOinc,dents is that
the murderer of Ormond al d his accom-
plices shoIgld have taken the body over
the same road that Claus Blixt took
katherine Cling, when she rode to her
death.
