CHARGED WITH ROBBING
THE UNITED STATES NAIL

w. H. Propst, accused of completely
in a number of burglaries at Portland
in this county last Saturday night,
was brought here from Pueblo by
Sheriff Esser Monday evening and
locked up pending a hearing of the
case against him. The most serious
charge against Propst and his asso-
ciates is robbing the United States
mails.
Saturday night a mail pouch made
up for Denver & Rio Grande train No.
8, was stolen from the station, and
later that night the men were seen
opening letters near the railroad
bridge. 1t is not thought that they
secured much of value from the mail,
as the pouch did OF contain registered
matter. Another pouch which was
made up for train No. 6 contained over
5000 in money and it is thought that
the robbers knew about the money but
by mistake stole the wrong mail
pouch.
