COMMIFTED DU1ClDEs-1soueEb AsoaiiyS
An smploys of the Hillside Company,
Bristol District, was found last Wednes-
day morning in his cabin. with the doors
tightly barred, and his throat cut from
ear to ear. He had been drinking very
heavily and WAS just getting over
the effects of his late spree. The
night he committed the deed he had
been complaining to his roommate.
Jerry Healey, that he felt miserable and
was very nervous, telling Healey to light
a candle. As the candle was being
lighted Reilly would blew it out, and in
the interval would keep striking matches
with which to light his pipe, Healey
became alarmed at his peculiar manner
and left him, going up to the boarding
house at the mine. The next morning
Gerard Thomas. who is hauling ore from
the Hillside, noticed his cabin door was
shut, and that be was not at work upon
the road, whsreupon he broke down the
door and found Reilly a corpse, with
deep cash in his throat. and a bloody
razor and jack-knifo Mying on the bed.
It is supposed that no committed tho act
while in temporary fit OF insanity. His
body was taken down to Bristol, where
it awaits coroner's inquest
That HIKo CORRESPONDENT ma
quintah," an Indian prostitute living at
Hike, writes letter to the Eureka SEN
tinel, in which she rather severly criti-
cises Pioehe justice, and we reluctantly
are forced to admit that it contains some
truth. 1t will be noticed in the letter
that "Nsquintah" is very careful to say
nothing about McLAne and tries to
saddle the murder of Waldorf upon Nc
Intyrs shoulders. The people of Pah-
ranagat Valley fear McLane, for he
knows too much of former murders COM
mitted in that valley, and through fear
that he will expose them, it is very
probable that number of the settlers Of
that locslity will make stong effort to
save McLane's precious neck.
ATTEMPT TO PoIsoN.-An attempt WAS
made to poison Robert Clay, OF Pah-
ranagat Valley, the only man who saw No
Lane and Mcintyre on the morning while
they were on their way to murder Wal
born. On the Saturday morning of the
murder, before the deed was committed,
McLans and MoIntyrs, accom- panied by
two squAws. drove up in . wagon to the
ranch under the charge Of Clay, and
stopped short time there. Clay being
tho only man known to have seen the
murdersrs that morning. and is the
main link in the chain which is to
prove the guilt upon the prisoners, thu
friends Of one of tho prisoners thought
1t best to get Clay out of the way.
