The burglary, when he backed out
and the scheme fell through. Sosae
time after this Kelley left the camp
and was seen no more about Black
Diamond until his suspicious return
about week ago. Bsebe then went
on to tell how on the day OF his return
TO Black Diamond Kelly had hunted
him up and renewed the proposition
to rob the saloonkeeyers' cabin. Kel-
" said that the saaoonkeepers usg-
ally kept between Sl,400 and 81 500 in
the cabin, and that he was going 70
have IL IL it cost him his life. He
said he had provided himself with
chloroform. laudanum, a chisel and
q revolver. and that he would have
the money and dead man. too. If
any fuss was made about il.
After telling this story TO the Justice
Beehe asked his advice, whether he
should pretend to aceuiesce in Keliy's
felonious plans and encourage him in
the commission Of the crime, or refuse
to have anything TO do with the
mattes

Justlce brldges loid him 20 lead
Kelly TO believe that he was his viii
ling accomplish, but to avoid actual
completely with the crime, and, above
all things, to keep the authorities fully
advised as to Keily's movements.
Beebe did as instructed, and was
seen in company with Kelly NUM-
Der of times. In the meantime one
or two small thefts had occurred iE
camp, ard the pair we're suspected of
being the perpetrators, but no evidence
could be found against them.

that Kelly had decided 10 commit the he
burglary at 10 O'Clock that night. aThe
justice cautioned Isebee 10 sc. dis
creetly so that Keily's suspicious
would not be aroused. He then nosi-
fed Constable William Withrew. who
is also a deputy sheriff, of Bebee's dis
closures and they determined to place
man inside the cabin TO catch the
burglar while they watched on the
outside.
