G. C. Crone Voices a Protest.
c. c. Crone. the well-knOwn real estate
agent. Is strongly opposed to the idea Of
locating the Worlds Fair in Forest Park,
believing that the location Of the Fair
would destroy the park for future use as a
public pleasure ground. He favors locating
the Fair in the northern or northwestern
part OF the city. and concerning the Forest
Park idea has the following to say:
THE principal attractions that our city
affords to visitors are our beautiful Forest
and Tower Grove parks. In selecting
Forest Park for the Worlds Fair there
would be virtually nothing left for us to
show them. The entire park would be alb
sorbed, more or less. during the construc-
tion and building OF the Fair, and the citi-
zens thereby deprived of the pleasure they
now enjoy in visiting the park.
"An streets and driveways leading to that
section Of the city, would more or less be
marred and cut up by the constant heavy
hauling. Experience has proven that IN.
ferior buildings will necessarily be erected
adjacent to a Worlds Fair. to accom-
modate spectators and investors; which
will remain for years after the Fair Is
over. as an eyesore. and our beautiful resi-
dence section of the city would therefore
be less attractive"

For woman's happiness in the married

health. The woman who enters upon

Tool of Forpers

The police of Minneapolis believe that
William M. Vincent arrested Tuesday
afternoon by Patrolman A. A. Bacon. is
but the tool of others who are RESPONSE
BILE for the uttering of the forged checks
with which the Twin Cities have been
flooded for the past six months. From
information cleaned from a talk with the
prisoner, it seems that the base of op-
erations of the gang is at ST. Paul. Two
of the men are residents of Minneapolis.
Both have been arrested before during
the last administration The mother of
one of them SQUARED the accounts with
the various Minneapolis merchants who
were duped by the worthless paper and
nothing ever came of the case the police
had against him. The other young man
was a former member of. the Thirteenth
Minnesota regiment. He was also i'm
plicated in the passing of the bad checks,
but the settlement of the trouble by the
family of the other young man probably
saved him term of imprisonment
Detective Norm King knows the man
under arrest. He says his name Is not
Vincent but Vine and that he is a hard
working man, living at one of the down
town lodging houses. The detectives of
this city and st. Paul are working in
conjunction on the matter and expect
some results very soon.

graphed Chief Bull in most urgent terms
that the evidence or requisition papers
must be forthcoming by Friday morn
ing or there will be no hope of keeping
the anarchists longer in confinement
My private information said Chief
O'Neill tonight, (which comes from the
same source that gave me any clue as
to the whereabouts of Miss Goldman, is
that her statement of her itinerary dur
ing July and August are perfectly true
and that she was not in Chicago after
July II until last Sunday morning
AS matter of fact, I must admit
that we have no proof of any kind
against Miss Goldman or any of the
other prisoners. We are dependent en-
t1rely on Buffalo for the evidence or the
papers that will enable us to hold the
suspects in custody
Capt. CoLeran made the same adrnis-
sion, and Mayor Harrison said: ut is
pretty plain now that there was no plot
formed in Chicago. If there was a CON
spiracy anywhere it was made in the
East
The police made public what they said
was complete set of the kilograms
which have passed between Chief Bull Of
Buffalo and Capt. Colleran. They show
at almost every point the same lack of
proof, and make it clear that the arrests
were made here solely to have the per-
sons of the anarchists in case evidence
OF any kind might later develop.
