A PENITENTIARY PLOT
Convict Tells How the n. p. Black
mailing Conspiracy Was Hatched.

HELENA, MONTH is known
that the conspiracy to blacknail the
Northern Pacific company was
Matched i'm the penitentiary. Suspicion
was directed for some time against the
cell mate of Isaac Gravelle in the
penitentiary. Gravelle was released
three months ago. Soon after he OBJ
tanned his freedom the Northern Pa
cif1c officials received the first letter
demanding $4,000. This letter, 1t
has developed. was written by a con-
Wet, in, the penitentiary named Harvey
Whitton, who is serving an eight
year term from Gallatin county for
murder. Whitton has made con-
fession of the part he took in the plot.
The story of the confession of Con-
Wet Whitton that comes from Deer
Lodge is that he wrote the first letter
addressed to superintendent Boyle,
demanding $4,000. That letter, writ
ten in the penitentiary. is supposed to
have been carried out by Gravelle
when he was discharged and mailed
at Butte. Whitton not only duplicates
Gravelle, but another convict whose
name has not been disclosed.
