Frightened Women.
PAL WITH HIM WHEN SHOT
In their Investigation of the lulling
of Pete McCoy, the tramp who was
shot ait the doorstep of James M.
Paul, 004 Mesa avenue, at It o'clock
Friday night, the police learned that
n tramp, who looked very much like
McCoy, and displayed the same dar-
ing, cold-blooded nerve, appeared at
the PuiH home during the daytime
about a week ago and demanded food
The tramp w>alked In at the back
door of the house from the alley, and
boldly passed through one of the
rooms and entered another room
where Mrs. McCoy and a neighbor
were sitting. Offering no excuse for
entering the house, he Insolently ask,,
ed for something to eat. The women
screamed, and Mr. Hamlin, a freight
conductor on the G. H., wlm lives in
a i«tn of tin, house, made bis appear-
ance and told the tramp lo leave. The
man departed, muttering. Nothing
more was thought of the incident un-
til after last nighi's occurrence, and
when Officers Walbrldge and Scott
hurried to th, house after the shoot-
ing they found the women wondering
If M^Coy was tht, man who had been
to the tiouae before. Owing to the
man's growth of beard, no positive
Idem I lie at ion was made.
Yesterday Paul gave himself up to

Cons,able Clements and was given a
preliminary bearing before Justice
Marshall, at the close of which he
was bouud over to the grand jury and
allowed to go on his own recogni-
zance.
Another Important feature was re-
vealed when Paul made his statement
at the preliminary hearing. He said
that a pal accompanied McCoy to the
(eps ,mnl that when the first shot
was tired he heard the man run down
the steps. It would appear from this
that the two men contemplated bur-

SPECIAL AUTOMOBILE CARS.
Hundred
Pennsylvania will Build a

Owing to the Increase In the ship-
ment of automobiles and the fact that
the railroads expect these shipments
lo continue and increase, the Penn-
sylvania railroad has ordered a spe-
cial car designed for the carrying of
automobiles. An order for one hun-
dred cars has been placed at the Al-
toona shops. These cars are to he

Mexican Fruit Growers Say California
it Being Favored.
A large number of refrigerator and
fruit cars owned by lines connecting
with Mexican roads at the border
have bean sent -into the republic dur-
ing the past two weeks to carry fruit
shipments to the United States which
have been held up for several weeks
on account of the scarcity of cars.
Mexican shippers claimed that they
were being slighted In favor of Cali-
fornia shipper* and by extraordinary
efforts despite the car famine on their
lines traffic officials arranged to have
toe cars sent here. H I* said that
the number of cans already sent and
those on the way will be sufficient
to entirely relieve the situation.

scribed on a hotel register at Belle-
ville, Hi? No explanation has been
given, -but there la indirect informa-
tion of a significant nature
Mr. Busch has been wiring his
daughter long and earnest appeals
not to do anything rash until he ar-
rives. He has sold hoj that he does
not wish her to marry Lieutenant
Scharrer and has urged all the argu-
ments he could bring to bear against
hasty action. To all of which the
final reply of the fair Wilhelmina was
to the effect that she "did not love
Teddy, h«t felt la duty bound to mar
ry him."
The atmosphere about the Busch
home Is surcharged with excitement.
What state of affairs Mr. Busch will
find when he arrives today, as be
should do, can only be guess.d at.
Will Miss Butch carry into effect h r
threat to marry "Teddy" before her
lather arrive* to in erfera a second
time? And why is she "In duty
bound" to marry a man who was re-
ported to have carried her forcibly
away from home on a former occa-
sion?
These are riddles which find no so-
lution la the agitated and evasive an
swers of servants, who are the only
persons to be seen.
