of manhood and integrity as that White

He listened to them all. Then he tried
to reason with them, but that failed. At
last he rose up and said: We have known
each other for ears. I have befriended
every man present in politics, some Of

rice was more successful. Accounts differ
as to it's introduction. The most interest

he distributed among his friends The

Mr. Griggs, who was born In Paterson,

CUDAHY'S LATEST OFFER.


CUDAHY'S LATEST OFFER.
An unknown person, purporting to be
an agent Of the kdnapers, has made a
proposition to Edward A. Cudahy to re-
turn $2l 900 of the money paid for the
ransom Of mis- son, who was abducted
December IS last.
1t demanded in return withdrawal
OF the $250G0 reward and a cessation Of
the search that is being prosecuted, to-
gether with an abandonment Of the de-
termination to punish the criminals.
This proposition came in letter from
I1lgin, H.. and Mr.. Cudahy is convinced
of its authenticity. He went to Chicago
recently because of it, being summoned
there by his brother in response to over
lures that had been made. Mr.. Cudahy
refused to consider the proposition and
declares his unchanged resolve to prose-
cute TO the end the search for the men
who stole his boy.
Il received a letter about ten days
ago said Mr.. Cudahy. at was dated
April 10, at Elgin and bore the Elgin
postmark. / turned it over to the de-
tectives and did not make a copy. 1t
was very brief and recited that the chief
kdnaper had communicated with the
writer and was getting uneasy. 1t st
forth that the chase by the detectives
was getting uncomfortably close, and
asked if l would withdraw the offer Of
reward now a tstanding and let up on
the effort to ind the criminals and have
81 900 of the $4,000 of the ransom Ie-
turned to me.
1t seems that the writer got somewhat
in hurry, for as soon as he mailed the
letter he must have slipped right over
to Chicago, where he called on my broth
er Michael the same day, which was
two weeks ago today. He asked my
brother whether I would consider a prop
him that he did not know anything about
it. but would ask me to come over to
Chicago and talk the matter over, al
though he did not believe l would con-
slider it.
THAT afternoon I received a telegram
from my brother asking me if l could
come over and replied that I would be
over there in the morning. ! left there
on the afternoon train, and On reaching
Chicago learned what had transpired
there. l arrived home on Thursday and
the letter from Elgin was waiting for
me- The letter was signed and gave di-
rections as to how reply should be adj
dressed to reach the writer in Elgin.
So far as the offer is concerned, it has
been rejected. l refused absolutely and
unqualGedly to consider it, and am de-
termined to prosecute this search as
vigorously as l know how. That is what

cision of Judge slabaugh, of Omaha
that it Is not only a tenants privilege
but his right, if the house is out of re-
pair, to get it fixed al once and charge
tho cost to the owner. This decision OF
mich interest TO tenants, was made in a
suit of the lessee of q hotel to recover
damages because the furnace fiues were
out Of repair, the gas pipes leaked and
the wallpaper was hung crooked, all of
which, it was claimed, repealed the
guests. Instructing the jury that the
tenant was only entitled to nominal dam
ages, If any the Judge sald:,
IF man suffers an injury that he
could have avoided by the exercise of
prudence he cannot recover damages for
that injury. If you rent a house and find
that the furnace is out Of repair it is
your duty to get it fixed, and if it's 80
bad that it can't be repaired, throw it
out and put in new one, charging up
the cost to the owner who has contracted
to keep the house In proper shape Don't
