Sioux City, Ia, January IA special to
the Journal from Chadron, Neb., says:
Pat Grove, the supposed abductor OF
Young Edward Cudahy, has been captured
near the State line between Nebraska and
South Dakota.
Three detectives following Groves trail,
came upon him on the Pine Ridge reserva'
ton, near Olerichs, South Dakota and
captured hun after a wild chase. Grove
was driving a team and blackboard. lie
whipped the horses and tried to outrun
the horsemen, who soon brought him to a
halt with their six.shOoters. John Del
fielder, a cattleman, has just reached town
with the news, and says the posse had

for lunch and to feed their horses.
Omaha, Neb., January 1.-The first ar
rest in the Cudahy kidnapping case has
been made. J.J. Grove, brother OF Pat
Grove, whom the police believe to be the
princl ,Jal in the abduction, was taken into
custody in Council Bluffs this afternoon by
Omaha detectives, and brought to this
CITY. The warrant charged Grove with
the abduction of young Edward Cudahy
on December Is. Grove consented to &C.
company the officers across the river with
out the formality of requsition papers.
Early this afternoon posse OF detec-
tiyes with search warrants and complaints
charging abduction, ransacked the prem
ises adjacent to j. j. Groves saloon, in
the hope of discovering Pat Grove in his
place of concealment. They had the nec'
essary papers for the arrest of both Pat
and his brother. Early in the day the
police had been given information that
either Pat Grove was making bis hiding
place in his brothers. saloon, or the broth
or knew more than ne would divulge about
the kidnapping and the letter that has
been recently written to MIR. Cudahy
threatening the death of his son If the re-
ward for the arrest of the kidnapers was
not withdrawn.
A diligent search disclosed no trace OF
Pat Grove, but the officers came upon the
brother asleep in a rear ROOM Ihey
hastily awakened him and took away two
huge bull. dog pistols which he carried In
his nocket. The man was first taken to
the Council Bluffs station by Detective
Weir, of the Iowa department, and then
he was conducted across the river for an
examination by Chief Donahue.
When the information that Pat Grove
might be found in the saloon vas gwen TO
Chief Donahue he detailed five detectives
TO make the arrests. The detectives sepa-
rated before reaching Groves place, and
eoncealing their faces in the high collars Of
their overcoats, stroiled one at time over
the sidewalk in front Of the saloon. Ihe
building was quickly surrounded. When
the detectives opened the doors of the sa-
loon and the adjoining roOm, the inmates
were taken by surprise, but there was nc
show of resistance. A woman of the house
hold attempted to run to the room where
Grove lay asleep, but the officers blocked
the way and entered first. So quiet had
been the entry of the officers that Grove
had not been awakened. He was aroused
and disarmed at the same time. In his
rear pockets two huge revolvers were
found. one in each hip pocket. Grove
rubbed his eyes as if he were dazed.
sWhat do you WANT" he demanded.
"We are looking fol you and Pat, wa
the RESPONSE. "We want Pat most, but /
We can't end him, We want to ask you
few questions"
Grove took the situation complacently
am do anything l can for you, gentle
men," he said, "but tell you right now
/ can't do or tell much"
While two of the detectives stood guar(
oyer Grove until he put On heavy clothing
for out.of. doors, the rest carefully ex
auined the premises.

isolated cluster of buildings on the out
skirts of the city.
