Alterie made his first appearance in Colorado in 1922 when he settled jon @ ranch in Jarre canyon west of Denver. He immediately received notoriety for “Hollywood” cowboy mannerisms which he proceeded to adopt on his arrival. A brilliant silk shirt, chaps and all the other trappings of the picture cowboy signalized Alterie’s new life. Shot in Ranch Quarrel In April, 1926, he was shot in a quarrel at his ranch. His brother was held as a suspect. On Nov. 28, 1932, in a brawl at a Glenwood Springs hotel, Alterie cap- ped his Colorado career by assaulting and wounding two men. sentenced to one to five years in the Colorado penitentiary. The sentence was suspended, however, on the con- dition that he would leave the state and never return. Alterie, however, failed to keep the promise and returned to Denver two days later where he and his wife lived incognito for several weeks un-, til he was picked up by officers and turned over to Chicago authorities who sought him on a_ kidnaping charge.

M., in connecition with the Factor kidnaping in 1933. Alterie came west again last year stopping in Cheyenne, Wyo., but so far as is known, he did not return to Denver.
