NERVOUS WOMAN WITH LARGE
AMOUNT OF WEALTH ON PER-
SON CREATED SCENE IN ST.
PAUL-AcTED QUEER ON N. p.
TRAIN SATURDAY.

The conductor of a Northern Pacific
coast train, which passed through
Fargo Saturday, told some of the local
N. P, officials and people who were at
the station about queer passenger
he had on board. He stated that she
said her name was Alton that she had
given the crew no end of trouble by
continually asking questions about the
time the train would arrive in st. Paul
and also asking If they thought there
was any danger of a holdup.
The mysterious behavior of the
woman is explained in the following
from The st. Paul Pioneer Press:
Fearful lest she be robbed of $40, 900
IN securities and cash which she had
carried in one of her stockings all the
way from Seattle to ST. Paul, Mrs.
Jennie Alton, As years old, be-
came nervous while in the Union de-
pot last night, and ran from one end
OF the station to the other, yelling that
two men were pursuing and about to
murder her. She is now incarcerated
in the county JAIL
Mr. Alton was conveying deeds of
land to a relative in Milwaukee, when
searched at the jail an express draft
Tor $4,000, several deeds and nearly
$1,000 in currency were found secreted

ing In Minneapolis, and the police of
tnat city are endeavoring to locate
him.
Persons waiting for trains in the
depot noticed the queer actions of the
woman. She would remain seated for
few minutes, suddenly rise to her
rect, pause, look all about her, and
then sit down. The attention of or
Ger Lane and Depot Master Thomas
was called to Mrs. Alton. Suddenly
she rose and ran to the rear of the
station, turned about and ran toward
the street, yelling that two men were
trying to kill her.
The policeman took hold of the
woman, but she struggled for her free.

rived she was still struggling. IT was
with difficulty that she was induced
to leave the vehicle and enter the fail
She Is beset with the notion that nur-
der will be the outcome of her mis-
sion, and she the victim. Mrs. Alton
is in charge Of the jail matron.
The police of central station are +rv-
ing to locate the woman's relatives in
Milwaukee, having nothing to work
upon but the woman's name. She re-
fused last night to divulge the names
of relatives.
