THE HUSS
 MONEY Owner Will Soon Have It Again. Another Chapter in This Mysterious Case = Chief Egan Receives a Telegram Albert Noether Got Away With the Money.

1t is now evident that the mystery .enveloping the disappearance of Louis Husss $S04 will be cleared up in q few days, if at all. If not it will be denser than ever. Last night Chief Egan received the following telegram:
 .'St Louis, Sept 7.--AIbert Noether, the boy who stole the money, has left on the o'clock train on the Big Four route for your city Matthew Kiley, Chief of Police"
 The story of the apprehension of Noether, assuming that he is the boy, which the local police greatly doubt, is singular one. On the train with him was tobacco planter named A. w. Grover of Louisville. It seems the boy became conscience stricken and was crying, and the tobacco planter noticing him, won his confidence and he told him the whole story of the dis. appearance of the money. According to the story, Noether made up his mind to see the fair at St Louis and lacked the wherewithal to get there. Appar- ently he supposed the house No 192 North Main street was Mir Huss'S home, for he so calls 1t in his story, saying that he was in there one day and happened to see roll of bills OH a table he took the money and imme- diately left town. He bought suit of clothes and started for the fair, and then got sorry.
 The story struck Grover as very queer and he handed the boy over to the police upon arriving at St Louis. He got the greater part of the money from the boy and expressed it east to MT Huss, according to the dispatches, the total amount being saidI to be SPAS, after ascertaintng from him by telegraph that he had lost SS04.
 Noether told the planter that his father was superintendent of a big factory here, whereas the fact is his father holds no such position and lives on East Main street, opposite Orange street.
 While the police are confident that the mystery surrounding the ddsap- pearance of the money will be cleared up very soon, they express surprise why MT Huss has not received the package expressed east by the tobacco planter, and they would not be sur priseih if the boy does not turn out to be Albert Noether after all They say young Noether is not the kind of boy to become conscience stricken or to shed tears or express sorrow over such deed as stealing $500. Detective Dodlds was at the Noether home on East Main street last night and was informed that the boy has not been there since Saturday, yet some of the neighbors said that he had been about the place two hours before the detective was there. That may be, however, for he could be in town and yet not call at his home.
 BIT Huss this afternoon said he was expecting the package of mon ey, but up to ? o'clock had not re- ceived it, nor the letter of particulars promised him by MT Grover.
 To remove all possible doubt on the matter the local agents of the Adams Express company telegraphed, at MT Huss's request, their office in St Louis to ascertain if such a package as that mentioned by MT Grover had been ex- pressed and the reply was in the af- firmative, so that it is liable to arrive in town this afternoon or evening.
