FOR THE SAFETY
OF A PRESIDENT
Every PreCautiOn viii Be TAX
en- While Mr.. Taft is
in This City.

As a means of lessening the crowds
that will congest the depot grounds
when President Taft arrives, Chief Of
Police Samuel Barlow has suggested
that the crowds line up on South Tenn
pie street, if the people wish to catch a
satisfactory view of the great guest.
From the Denver & Rio Grande depot
Mr. Taft will step into an automobile
and will be driven to Main street, thence
north to South Temple. and along that
street to Fort Douglas, thus affOrding
ample opportunity for everyone to see
him. Otherwise such a crowd would
gather at the depot as to make il i'm
possible for any but a small proportion
of the people to catch a glimpse Of MI.

Plans for the protecting and safe
guarding of the president were com
pleted yesterday by Chief Barlow and
L. c. Wheeler, advance man for the
squad Of secret service men who will
accompany Mr.. Taft Within the next
few days the various police officers viii
be given their assignments in the plans.

sum of money at the time, but the rob-
bers failed to find it. He had just
turned the corner of Main street. east
on to South Temple, when the three
men suddenly doomed up from the
shadow Of the building and started west.
As they neared him they divided as
though to pass him, and as Chazer came
abreast Of him, he locked his arm
around Holmes neck and tripped him
to the sidewalk. Before Holmes could
cry. out, another had choked off his
wind, and he was dragged into the Z. G.
NJ. I. alleyway before other pedestrians
on the street had seen what had taken
place
