crowd OF 1000 persons had gathered
al b union station and they filled the
station n approaches I'm every di-
iection to obtain IL possible n glimpse
of him.
A large Gordon OF police opened am

detectives. with n patrolman walking
ahead and another behind. was
marched to the wagon. amid the cheers

The extraordinary precaution taken
by tho police department for landing

In the patrol age I'VE officers and
three reporters furnished company for

coffee and dessert. after eating which
he consented TO see a representative OF
the Associated Press.
Grove was not inclined to talk OF
his past, n refused absolutely to
speak OF his alleged connection with
the kidnapping of Eddie Cudahy. He
declared that much a been published
Ot his alleged confessions and other
matters which were without foundation.
He mentioned n confession said to have
.been signed by him at Butte impllcat-
ing young cudRhy In n conspiracy In
connection with the kidnapping.

Il believe Mr.. cudahy has made the
statement that I did so. I do not think
he would tell a lie for 81 .O00." he re-
piied.

hesitated about seeing anybody. He
recognized a reporter with whom he
had talked two months ago. and re-
called an interview In "a local news
paper Office. In registering he was
asked what his reputation was. Re-
plying TO this query. Grove. remarked:
'Dodglng you fellows has been about

years"
Grove took particular notice OF the
crowd that had gathered at the station.
and remarked that IL was n fiattering
welcome that Omaha was giving one
of It's former citizens.
Chief OF Police John J. Donahue gave
a sigh OF relief when he saw Grove
safely inside the steel cage.
