his son the river approaches the road,
and it is supposed that the men were
on tn ewatch for the millionaire and
saw his red light from a boat. AS SOon
as he had driven away and they had
satisfied themselves that no others
we're lurking near they probably clam
bered up. the bank, obtained the sack
of gold that had been left for them,
made their way to the boat again and
escaped without leaving any telltale
footprints.
The most important light thrown
upon the identity of the kidnapers was
when w. s. Glynn, who runs a livery
stable, stated that man had come to
his barn Wednesday forenoon and
asked to use the telephone. Frank
Glynn, a son Of the proprietor. was in
the office at the time and readily gave
his consent The stranger, without
taking the trouble to look up the num-
Der in the book, called for Edward
Cudahy's house. The Cudahy telephone
was busy at this time and he hung up
the ear trumpet and stepped outside
the door and looked up and down the
street, as if watching for someone. In
a moment or two he returned and again
called up Cudahy's house, This time
he was successful, and he said, in d
surly tone of voice.
Have you looked in the front yard
for a letter?''
The answer evidently was NO" for
he added:
DO SO at once and you viii find one"
He then hung up the phone and
stepped outside, mounted a pony he
had come on and rode rapidly west in
LeavenwoTth street.
AS soon as the man had finished talk
ing officer Dempsey called up Glynn
and asked that the man at the stable
keep watch of the direction the stran-
ger had taken. In five minutes Demp-
sey and Officer JOrgensen arrived at the
barn, but the man who telephOned had
disappeared They were in the Cudahy
house when the man telephoned about
the letter.
