RUBY'S STORY DISCREDITED.

Beeanw Bo Owe a Lot of Moucjr and laSatd to Hare Disappeared.

Chicago, Oct 30. South Chicago po-lice officials are convinced that thethrilling story told by A. C. Ruby, asaloonkeeper at So45 Mackinaw avenue, who was found bound and gaggedIn the rear of his place of business Sat-urday morning and said he had beentortured by robbers until compelled totell where he kept his money, Is with-out any foundation In fact. Accordingto the story told by the saloonkeepertwo masked gburlars entered his placewhile he was asleep, bound and gaggedhim and prodded him with a knife un-til he revealed the hiding place of $500In currency and $300 worth of paychecks which he had cashed for em-ployes of the Illinois Steel companyand which the Intruders carried awaywith them.

After a care-ful investigation the police suspectedthat all was not right, and their doubtswere apparently confirmed yesterdaywhen it became known that Ruby hadfled from the city, leaving behind anumber of creditors. The police believethe saloonkeeper imposed upon themand bound and gagged himself after in-flicting the knife wounds, with the ex-press purpose of defrauding his credi-tors by means of the robbery story.

Chicago O. O. P. Marches in Column forOver Kix Hours.

Chicago, Oct. 21). The second great"sound money" parade is a part ofChicago's history. For more than sixhours Saturday the rumble of wagons,the sharp click of horses' hoofs and thetread of marching feet were heard.Traffic in the heart of the city was at astandstill. Surface roads were tied upand peelestrians were checked at curb-stones. Stores were closed, shops wereunoccupied, lathes were still. It was aday devoted to jtoliticnl enthusiasm.Careful counting showed 30,423 per-sons in line. Four years ago a similarevent occurred. Saturday the weatherwas all that could be desired for amarch.

The demonstration was one in whichall classes participated, and in whichevery one took equal pride. There wereno untoward Incidents to mar the occa-sion. Shorly before 10 a. m. a carriagebrought Senator Hanna from theAudi-toriu- m

Annex, while another carriageconveyed Senator Wililam E. Masonfrom the Grand Pacific to the meetingplace of the head of the parade. Thetwo carriages took their places in theline right behind the escort of citizens,and a few minutes later the Second Infantry band struck up a march and thesignal for the start was given by thechief marshal.

As soon as the column started thecrowds which had assembled alongMichigan avenue rapidly thinned outand the people rushed to some of thestreets along the line of march to get abttter view of the pageant. The van ofthe pageant reached the Grand Pa-cific hotel at 10:40 a. m. Senators Han-na and Mason and their escort of pub-lic men left their carriages at theJackson boulevard entrance and pro-ceeded immediately to the reviewingbalcony. Their appearance was thesignal for cheers, which continued al-

most without cessation till tlie last ban-ner had passed. Senator Hanna wasaccorded tlie place of honor in the eastcorner of th ebalcony, where he stooduncovered and bowing to the con-tingent who sent up their formal andpersonal greetings from the street be-H- w.
