A sensational sensa-tional story to the effoct that a plot for the murder of Peter Dieter, the wealthy Chicago ranchman, who disappeared, dis-appeared, last fall, from his place at the foot of the Greenhorn mountains about 35 miles from Pueblo, had been discovered. Is discredited in this city. Bay Gordon, the cowboy, who is suspected sus-pected of having murdered the young man, some time ago gave a check signed sign-ed by Dieter to a woman of this city. This" apparently is the only foundation for the story of a plot It was at first reported that Dieter had not been seen since last September, but this Is proved prov-ed to be incorrect from the fact ascertained ascer-tained this morning that ho had bought several articles for household use from a local furniture concern, October 16. and ho was seen on the streets of this city during the latter part of November or early in December. Decem-ber. The heavy snowstorm of yesterday and today haa prevented close search of the neighborhood of the ranch. |
