Witness Looms in Dan Lucey Murder Case at Leadville
Sheriff Conley served a subpoena to a new witness in the Dan Lucey murder case. A man who stayed at Finley’s lodging house in Leadville after the crime drew interest by paying for a night and reading the Inter Mountain before leaving without a trace. The stranger claimed arrival on a late westbound train and slept through the night, but vanished by morning.

Tiny wheelmaker topples a big trust in grim game
A New Jersey visitor recalls a New Orleans tale where a small wheel maker narrowly defeats a car wheel trust. He secretly offered 15 percent discounts to major buyers to secure two years of orders, luring the trust to bid up the price. The scheme backfired as the trust cut prices to crush him, only to be outmaneuvered by the maker who kept orders, profited, and watched the trust crumble while he retired rich.
