Brown, Collingwood, has been placed under arrest, at. that place, charged with plotting to murder his mother, was greatly surprised when informed of the arrest. "I did not think it would go as far as that," he said. "I thought it a huge joke, as far as 1 am concerned, but at the same time I thought it should be investigated.' Rose added that when he notified the authorities he imagined that they would take quite a little time to sift the matter out. "However," .Mr. Rose, continued, "as I said before, the whole thing was a huge joke, as far as I was concerned. 1 couldn't for a moment imagine that a man could wish to murder his mother for a few paltry dollars. I thought I would see how far it would go in all seriousness. As a party to such a crime, with the intention of committing it, 1 could not he associated with so dastardly a thing for fifty million dollars, let alone five hundred." Pleaded Not Guilty.
