KIDNAPPING CASE IN ALABAMA.
Boy Named Bass Frazer Held for Ran.
 som-$500 Already Paid in Vain.

Montgomery. Ala. Feb. 25-There is reason to believe that Bass Frazer kidnapers have been in Montgomery within twenty-four hours. Yesterday afternoon Hix Frazer, his brother, who recently gave $500 in Atlanta for the promised delivery of the Kidnapped boy. reported to the police here that he had received another letter from the kidnapers in which they said that Bass Frazer was III, intimated that they would be glad to get rid of him, and that for $500 they would deliver him alive. The anonymous letter proposed that if the $500 was left in a sack at the corner of Alabama and Decatur streets, Bass would be sent home The letter gave explicit instructions as to how and where to Rave the money. The police filled a sack with corn and had Frazer deposit it as directed. Meantime they concealed themselves in houses near tine corner. The kidnap- CTS, however. did not come, and the sack was unmolested.
 A despatch from Prattville, Ala, says that Hlx Frazier was there today ex- pecting to find his brother. that the kidnapers had agreed to deliver Bass Frazer at that rlace. but that nothing came of the promise.
