TUE PADDOCK AFFAIR.

Sioux City Journal August 10: The
coroner's jury in the Haddoek murder
case adjourned last evening for one
week, and Mr.. Waterman, the orouer,
started for his home at Oto. To q
Journal reporter he said that the adj
jonrnment had been ordered because
the Jury wanted time to consider the
facts now before it, and because there
was yet evidence that was deemed I'M
portant that could not be got at just at
present. "Of course" said Mr.. Water
man, mo verdict has been reached yet,
and may not be for some time to come.
We are proceeding as rapidly as it is
thought consistent, and while everybody
is anxious that q conclusion be reached,
the jury Is taking the safe course of
sitting every particle Of evidence to the
bottom"
"Have any arrests been made since
King and Waldevring were brought in ?"
"No."
"Haye any warrants been issued to-
day, or will there be any issued soon ?"
"None have been issued SO far. just
when further arrests will be made / can
not say"
"What facts we're developed as to the
alleged conspiracy to do up Attorney
| Wood and MIR. Walker"
1--WE have been paying more attention
to ferreting out tire murderers than to
looking up outside accomplices."
"Wil You return to the city and CON
tinue the work when the week is upw
Yes, | will return, bnt l heartily wish
the matter dc ne with. i have all can
do to attend to my practice at home,
and it is a great inconvenience and ex-
pense Tor mi to be obliged to stay here
on this business"
GLOW will the matter of q deputy be
arranged hereafter? p
II think that matter will BIZ all right
as it liz. In other counties in the state
deputies perform the duties, and the
question was never brought up before
District Attorney Marsh was ap.
preached, and the question asked:
Have any further arrests been made
to-day"
mo, none have been made yet"
"Will any be made soon ?"
Not that l know of, but / am moi the
proper party to order arrests made"
SIS there any truth in the report that
King and Waldevring have been bound
over to await the action of the grand
jury
mo; they have not yet had q pralim-
mary examination, but probably will
soo."
