eand dollars in gold was the price paid
by Edward A. Cudahy. the millionaire
packer, for the return of his son, Ed.
ward Cudahy, Jr.. who was abducted
by q gang of kidnappers last Tuesday
night
Following instructions contained in
an anonymous letter received by him,
MIR. Cudahy procured $4,000 in gold
and proceeded alone in a buggy to the
place designated, about five miles west
of the city. He carried red lantern
as signal to the abductors of his boy
who indicated the place where he was
to leave the money by hanging white
lantern on short stick by the side of
the road.
Alighting from his buggy, Mr.. Cud.
ahy deposited the sack close to the
stick bearing the white light Then,
without seeing anyone, he returned to
his home. Meantime the captors of
the boy had seen the red light coming

The cunning Of the gang aud their

they laid. Close by the place where
Mr.. Cudahy was directed to leave the
ransom for his son the river approached
the road and it is supposed the men
were on the watch 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 person
was lurking near, they probably clam
