CLEVER AS SLEU1HS
Hicks and Smith Had Decidedly
Slim Clues for Following
a Forger.
He Had Worked an Elaborate
Scheme and Had Covered
His Tracks.

A purchase check for a trunk and a
description of the man wanted was all
the clue the Minneapolis police had to
e. Foster, the eforger, who was ar
rested yesterday in Boston upon in
formation telegraphed from the local
department. Yet bys a system Of care
full investigation, Detectives Hicks and
Smith were able to trace the fugitive
and to cause his arrest the minute he
arrived in the Hub The work Of
clever by Chief of Police Conroy that
they have received the chiefs compli-
ments. n
Foster came to the city about four
weeks ago and took lodgings In a
boarding house. He went to Nick
nue. and explained that he was in the
United States secret service depart
ment and wanted to hire livery team.
The team was furnished and when
Foster returned he paid cash. He SO
continued patronizing the barn and
spent much money there. In the
meantime he became quite we'll ac-
quainted with Mr. Ronner and told
him that: his paymaster was named
Ronner. -. ~'- - .s.sr .ss.@7- :
Last Friday he told Mr.. Ronner that
his check from Washington: would
reach here Saturday and true to his
statement Saturday morning, the check
not acquainted at the banks and asked
| Ronner to identify him. The two went
to the Swedish american bank where
Ronner Identified Foster, Endorsed the
check and Foster received $500, He
thanked Ronner for the kindness and
disappeared.
| AS soon as Ronner learned that the
check was a forgery, he reported the
case to police headquarters and De-
tectives Hicks and Smith were de-
tailed to- investigate. They found
Fosters clearinghouse and learned
that he had left. there in a hack. After
three hours work they found the hack
4 driver. and Learned the station to
which Foster was driven. At the de-
pot they could not learn where he
had gone and were compelled to try
another plan. ssr.*,3 -
They again visited the boarding
house and after searching the room
carefully they found in the waste
basket purchase check fora trunk
which Foster had bought at a Nicollet
avenue trunk factory. They went to
the factory, secured a description of
the trunk and which they gave to the
baggag emaster at the station. He re-
membered the trunk and told the Off
GERS that it had been checked to Bos-

FEDERAL BUILDING BETS
Guaranty Tenants Make Wagers on Plans
of Builders ~


Bets are being paid extensively: to-day:
by tenants Of the Guaranty building. The
progress Of the improvements on the fed
eral building have been watched intently
by the favored ones who occupy offices
on the right side Of the building and above
the seventh floor. - '.'..
When the corner towers began to rise
above the roof, windows were built and
the openings were filed with heavy, rough
boulders:
Betting began at once as to the purpose
Of these stones. The winners are the
ones who stahed their regulations on the
idea that the ,boulders were put in for
carving. The, losers held that they were
simply put in to support the fat arches
and would be taken out.
The question has been settled by the
arrival Of the staff models after which the
carving is to be patterned. j.. ,..:. =.
. It. will take two men a month to finish
each tower. Little houses are being built
at the top of the high scaffolding to pro-
"tect the carvers. ~ Salamanders will be
placed in the houses and thru the winter
months these artists Of the chisel will
work away above the busy streets.
