SHERIFF GOT A
SCOOP FOR HERALD
COUNTY ATTORNEY JOHNSON
SAYS SHERIFF PROMISED ST.
LENcE REGARDING LiNDEYs
CONFESSION BUT STORY APP
FEARED IN WHALEYs PAPER.

Edward Lindey has made a COM
plete confession to County Attorney
Johnson. He stated that the taking
away from r. M. Patterson. the $3.50
which had been paid to him by his
employer #. NJ Rice, farmer of
Moland township. was a complete
frameup to get possession Of Patter-
sons money. The affair was not a
daring holdup.'
The story OF Lindey to County At
torney Johnson, telling where the Pat
terson money was hidden and his de-
scrtption OF all of the arrangements
for hte driving OF Patterson from the
Rice farm in Moland township, to
Moorhead, the detours to be made TO
put Patterson off his guard and the
course OF procedure after the stopping
of the buggy which was carrying Mr..
Patterson and Mr.. Rice to town, was
related to the county attorney on
Wednesday evening. II was the basis
Of the issuance of the warrant for the
arrest of Frank M. Rice, late Wednes-
day night after Mr.. Rice had seen the
departure OF the members OF his fam
lily to Iowa. Mr.. Johnson was assured
that Mr.. Rice was not going away.
in company with County Attorney
Johnson and Ed. Lindey, Sheriff
whaley was taken to the hiding place
OF the money, which was pointed out
to the officials when the spot was
reached. With the aid of Lindey the
money was recovered by the county
attorney, the bills and silver intact
just as ii was when Mr.. Patterson hid
1T In the sack OF oats. while Rice and
Lindey were engaged in pretended
tussle which scared Patterson into
hiding his money.
The party returned to town and
Lindey was again locked up. Attorney
johnson, after placing the money
found in safe custody, told Sheriff
Whaley that the finding of the money
must not be divulged. IN fact must be
kept absolute secret until the matter
came before the grand jury and Mr..
Johnson said: was given absolute
assurance by the sheriff that nothing
whatever would be given out"
To the surprise Of the county at
torney the finding Of the money was
told under glazing headlines in The
HawIey Herald OF last Friday, a pa
per owned by the sheriff. The paper
usually is delivered to Moorhead sub
scribers on Friday morning, but this
last week nothing was seen OF the
paper until Saturday night.

Following the opening the market was
dull with firm undertone and prices
further advanced ". A private cable
received in this market from Buenos

market in the face of the dullness. AT
