CUDAHY |D-hAPP|NG CASE
ASKED TO WITHDRAW REWARD
hidnnpers Have Sent MIR. Cudnhy n
Note of Warning-He Says He VIII
Pay No Attention to It-Re.vard
Still stands.

Omaha, Dec. 30.-E A. Cudahy, the
millionaire packer, as received second
communication from the men who kid
mapped his son. This time, as formerly, the
letter contains threat and says in sub
stance that unless he would withdraw his
offer of $4,000 reward for the arrest and
conviction of each of the three bandits
they will kidnap another of his children
The letter refers to the failure of the police
to get anything like a tangible clue as to
the Identity of the kidnapers, SCOTS at the
idea of Pat Grove being one of them, men
lions the ease with which the 'first Job
was pulled orr and concludes with say
ing that if Mr. Cudahy is as wise as he
showed himself in the first instance he will
comply with the request and will withdraw
the rewards at once. This letter is writ
ten with pen and ink on the same kind of
yellow paper as the first, and evidently by
the same person.
1t was found by servant of the Cuda-
hys early on the morning of Thursday
December 27. Some one called up the
house by telephone and asked if Mr.. Cuda-
by was i'll. The servant answered that
he was not.
"Well," came the voice over the tele
phone, ''you can 90 out in the front yard
and you'll find letter there near the gate
It's addressed to Mr.. Cudahy. See that
it's delivered to him personally and to NJ
one else
The servant went out at once and founC

and was addressed: 'E. A. Cudahy, ST.

MIR. Cudahy, who was then at his pack
inghouse in South Omaha, was summone,

see the letter at first except Mr.. and Mrs
Cudahy. Mr.. Cudahy's intention at tn
time was to keep its contents to himself
as the bandits had requested, but later h

which lasted nearly three hours. Th

ENGLAND IN CHINA.
The Large Hold That the British Have
Gained at Important Points in the
Celestial Empire.

Great Britain is father in China al
ready than any other power. The facts
are sensational when taken together
The British have most of the trade in
strong ports where they have put up
handsome buildings. and they have
most of the concessions. 1t is the ex-
pectation that British capital will play
the largest part in the moderniZation
of China. Frank G. Carpenter, who
has been in that part of the world for
some time, contributes to this week
issue of the Saturday Evening Post
an article giving the most recent facts
of the situation. He says:
THE English are doing the most of
the foreign banking for China. They
get percentage on the greater part of
the quarter of a billion dollars used
in it's foreign trade. They have made
the Chinese government loans up to
the last four or five years; the first
two loans at the close of the Chinese
Japanese war, each amounting to $780,
100000. having been placed with the
English and Germans. There is one
English bank in China which has de-
posits of SO,00O,OOO. 1t pays six per
cent on deposits. and, Notwithstanding
this, declares big dividends. In a re-
cent transaction it made a clear profit
of $4,000 900, and it's stock is now two
hundred per cent above par.
There are, in round numbers, about
13,421 foreigners in China. l do not
include the soldiers called in by the
present war. OF these foreigners more
than 5000 are English, 1000 Americans.
1000 Germans, 900 French, 16O Danes,
400 Spanish, $50 Italians, 1000 Portu-
guese and 100 Japanese. More than
two-thirds of the Americans are mis-
sionaries.
"a look at what the English are do
ing at the different ports will show
whether they are profitable or unprof-
liable servants. They surely have not
wrapped their talent in a napkin and
buried it in the sand. They have made
the open ports modern European cities.
They are everywhere the leaders In So
ciety, education and business"

The Buffalo Pan American exhibit
ton buildings will be a great credit to
American architecture. The Worlds
Fair taught the country a tremendous
lesson in architecture, the benefits of
which are to be seen every day in the
increased dignity and beauty of public
and corporation buildings. Private
houses. except for the very rich, do
not show SO much progress towards
better things, but the American is
emerging from the days when his ideas
of architecture were the standing joke
of nations.

Bishop Potter's suggestion that the
chief of police ought to be a military
man, and a man of high social standing
is good but not new. In New York
and in Washington at least, and prob
ably in other cities, military men have
served as chiefs of police. General
Fitzjohn Porter and General Andrews
have headed New York's police depart
ment in the years gone by. Police duty
is really a branch of military duty and
the police should be educated. equipped,
trained, drilled, disciplined, promoted,
and Differed as well and as strictly as
so many soldiers.

The one city in the United States
that neither has q vice crusade nor
stands in immediate need of one is
Washington. the national capital; and
it is the only city in the land that does
not govern itself, whose inhabitants
have not one word to say in how it
shall be taxed, improved, or regulated.
That it is the most beautiful, the
cleanest, the happiest city in the land
is not deniable. 1t is governed by
three commissioners, appointed by the
president, two from civil life, one
from the army. 1t is the only city
where there is absolutely no local suff-
rage. and it prospers greatly under it's
arbitrary and un-American govern
ment But then it is pet child of
congress and congress watches the
parks, the streets, the spelling books
in the schools, the aqueducts, the rail-
way crossings, the bridges and every
thipg else that is to the city's benefit
with the fatherliest kind of protection
and care.

The Philadelphia Record prints
spirited description of Texas and her
oil geysers: The state of Texas, which
came bounding into the union across
frontier lines, with the reserved right
to split itself up into four more states
of the size of Pennsylvania or New
York, has ever since been a portentious
hood. Measurably escaping the raw
age of the civil war, since that dis
astrous time the people of Texas seem
to have become newly impressed with
the imperial extent of their area and
opportunities. They are pushing to
the front especially in the development
of their agricultural possibilities. The
recent astonishing upheava1 of subter-
ranean wealth in the state wonderfully
rounds out and amplifies its natural
resources. The new petroleum wells
in Texas are rightly called ''geysers."
They exceed in output the great wells
which were found in Pennsylvania for
ty years ago. If the oil shall turn out
to be of as fine quality for illuminat-
ing purposes as is the Pennsylvania
product it will command top prices in
the market. In any event the Texans
now have their own fuel supply, which
will enable them to cheaply convert
their Astounding raw material into fin
ished products and to carry and fetch
on land and water at low cost. If
there be anything more the Texans
need in the way of natural resources
to make them prosperous and happy it
will probably be added to them. Milk
and honey and corn and cotton and
wine and oil they do not lack.-Which
is all very true and Ell Paso's earth
wealth is still undeveloped. When the
Great Southwest really begins to show
the world what is has and can do. Tex
as will be the hub of the universe.

Now some temperance reformers in
Russia have set about the right way.
They believe that inasmuch as the
temptations to drink are so strong,
the only thing to do is to set up equal
ly strong temptations not to drink.
They plan to open places Of amuse-
ment where guests may see a play and
have food and refreshments but not
intoxicants. If churches or other
agencies would open up a few amuse-
ment halls where men could go of
nights, and get a good hot drink for a
fair price and have a biograph show
thrown in, the saloons would get a
vital thrust.
