examination. Wygant's secretary, took
full notes, and went from the hotel.
where the conference was held, to the
office to write out his notes. He
did not arrive there, aud after
some hours search was instituted.
No trace of the missing young man has
been found. Wygant has every
confidence In his integrity, and
is sure he has either been abducted
or met with foul play. 1t is understood
That under the severe cross-examination
of the detectives Watts made some
valuable statements, but just what he
has admitted cannot be ascertaIned.
The Daily News Morris, Ill.,, speial
says efforts are being directed towards
the arrest of Mike Humphreys, a local
desperado, as the man who killed
Nicholas, the express messenger. His
hair is the color of the handful in the
