anced.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, Sept. So
After a chase extending across the
continent, a special officer Of the San
ia Fe railway arrested George w. Bar
rett last night at Thornton on the
charge of blockmailing prominent
hallway magnates and capitalists in
different parts of the country. 1t is al
legged that Barrett wrote threatening
letter to Paul Morton, president Of the
Equitable, in which he demanded
$1,000. On his person were found let
ters from big trust companies in st.
Louis, New York and Chicago. Bar
rett is a negro, apparently of fine edu-
cation. He put up a desperate fight,
but was overpowered. He claims that
his home is in Cleveland. He says he
is working for John D. Rockefeller. In
dications are that he is demented, and
ne will be examined as to his san
ity.

Three FOUND WHO HAD NO PER
NIT FROM STATE BOARD OF
EXAMINERS.
w. J. Blackburn Paid a Fine of $40
Complaining Witness was G. J.
Mueller of Seattle.

Failure to comply with the state law
which requires all master plumbers
and journeymen workmen to take out
a state permit, cost w. J. Blackburn,
who has had charge of the plumbing in
the new Keylor Grand theater, SO in
Judge Huffman's court this morning.
The complaining witness in the case
was G. j. Mpellel, secretary of the
state board of plumbing examiners,
who arrived from Seattle yesterday to
investigate several cases where plumb
ers had failed to secure state per-
init.
Mr.. Blackburn plead guilty to the
charge and paid his fine. Fred Mil
ler and Fred Marshall were also up on
the same charge. Marshal forfeited a
SIS bond and Miller secured his dis
charge by proving that 10 days ago
he had forwarded $3.50 to the secre-
tary at Seattle with a request for a
permit. The letter, Secretary Mueller
said, never reached his Office and was
presumably lost in transit. Miller said
that he enclosed two 81 bills and 50
cents in stamps.
Miller has been employed by Black
burn on the Keylor Grand theater.
Marshall is in the employ of the Gas
ton Brothers company. The plumbers
will secure permits Of Mr.. Mueller at
once.

q visitors arrived here early in the
mining and during the early part of
/. The forenoon and the streets, partic-
ularly. of course, Pennsylvania avenue,
were lined with people, long before the
hour of the presidents arrival. The
crowd was good natured, however, and
the police had no difficulty in preserv-
Ing order.
In Difference to the wishes of the
president there were no formal re-
Geption ceremonies at the station
when he arrived Several members of
The cabinet were at the station to re-
ceiye the president besides a number
Of department. officials and a strong
force Of secret service men.
When the train bearing the presi-
dent and his party arrived police and
secret service men formed a double
line and the president passed between
the lines to the entrance, where the
whole party took carriages. The ap-
peafance of the president was the
signal for .deafening cheers and vav-
IS OF hats and handkerchiefs. The
president met with the same enthusiast
'' o'dUons all along the route to the
"Al'e House and was kept busy bow

an early hour, accompanied by his
brother in law, c. N. Beal of Belling-

the purpose of inspecting the institu-

the hospital. He also devoted con-
siderable time to inspecting the work

agement of the penitentiary were talk
ed over.
The presence of Mr.. Beal in the city
at this time, however, gave the local
politicians cause for considerable spec
ulation, for the reason it had been ru-
mored that in the event of Warden
Kees being removed or rendering his
resignation Beal would stand a good
chance of being his successor. Beal

sengers and a valuable cargo, ran fast
ashore at noon today on the ragged
rocks near Fort Point during thick
