THE JOHNSTOWN MURDER
Further Particulars.

w. A. Ely, chief of police of Johnstown,
and Hiram Yauney, ticket agent of that
place, were in Troy on Sunday, says the
Times, in search of clue to the partici-
pants in the terrible murder committed
there Friday night. Edward Yost, the vic
tim, was butcher, and frequently came
to Troy and Albany. He generally had
considerable sum of money about him !;
hence it is supposed that the murder was
committed by some one who knew of his
habits and had followed him from either
OF the above places. Two strangers were
seen around Johnstown, Friday. One,
named Keycs, is now in custody, and the
other, man five feet eight inches in
height, dark complexioned, and with a
bruise on one of his eyes, as if some one
had struck him, took the train south Sat-
urday morning hence the prosecution of
the search in this direction. Nothing was
ascertaned here, and the officers contin-
ued their inquiries at Albany.
In addition to the particulars gwen on
Monday, the following are also given Mr..
Yost, in company with his brother, John
Yost, and David Eagan, visited the theatre
on Friday night. After the performance
Yost went to his shop to get his bull dog to
put in the bank. The party then went to
the Sir William Johnson hotel, where they
remained until five minutes before IL
o'clock. Yost left his brother and friend
and went to his room in the bank Nothing
was seen or heard of him until his remains
were discovered. The most reasonable
theory of the murder that we have heard
advanced, is that Yost had retired to his
bed, as his clothing had been removed, and
that an entrance was effected by the muir
derers through the rear window. This
window is reached by means of an alley
running alongside of the building lost
must have been awakened by the noise OF
the Williams, who, seeing that he
was awake, attacked him. Yost was
a very powerful man, and must have
given his assailants hard fight,
for the counter, about sixteen feet in length
running through the Office, was completely
besmeared with blood, as were the walls
and doors. The body was then dragged
| into the back room, which was set on fire
in two or three places. When the body
was found, there was gag in the mouth,
and the arms were bound. The room in
which Yost slept was air-tight, and the
door was found closed, which accounts fol
the fire not blazing out until the window
was kicked in. Deceased was a highly
respected citizen, and was we'll known
throughout Johnstown and vicinity
He was knight tcmplar, and was hec
in high esteem by his brother knights. A
post norton examination of the body of the
murdered man was held. A severe con
fusion was discovered on the back of the
head, one bullet was found just above the
right ear. and one penetrated the brain a
the top of the head. Two chambers of thu
murdered mans revolver had been dis
charged, and two bullet holes were dis
covered in the door of the vault.
The watch stolen from Yost was al
eighteen carat gold hunting case watch
engine turned, nickel movements, made by
Tissot & Son, and numbered 81 ,9l5.

The funeral OF John Nicholson, who was
frozen to death last Thursday night while
attempting to walk from Whitehall to
Fairhaven, VT, took place at Troy on
Sunday afternoon from the residence OF
his father, at the Iron Works Mr.. Nichol-
sons statement of the death of his son
differs somewhat from that published in
THE GLOBE. He says that, arriving at
Whitehall Thursday evening, they found
that some time would elapse before train
went to Fairhaven, and John urged that
they walk to that place. The father OBJ
jected, but the son said he would go alone,
but rather than have him do so the father
started with him. After walking about six
miles, John complained of feeling weak.
and he said he was unable to proceed much
further. Mr.. Nicholson, sr., saw light
ahead, and persuaded his son to make an
effort to reach it. He did so, and succeed
ed in getting to the door of what proved to
to be farm house, but was refused admis-
sion, or even the boon of cup of water.
Feeling somewhat reste and being but
short distance from Fairhaven, John de-
termined to go on, but before getting
quarter of a mile from the house fell again.
His father picked him up and assisted him
as best he could, but he fell again, and
finally died in his fathers arms. He left
his body lying in the snow, and went to
town for assistance, but he experienced
some difficulty in finding the body of his
son on his return, and it was not until s
o'clock Friday morning that the remains
were taken to Fairhavcn. Mr. Nicholson
says that neither he nor his son had taken
any liquor, except one glass of ale in
Whitehall, and that the opinion of ply
stefan who saw the body at Fairhaven was
that death was caused by over exertion and
the intense cold.

which have also been moved forward and
firm wooden railing built back of the
