Independent IA startling case OF crime
and It's detection occupies the attention Of
Great Falls. Last November the store of b.

tered here at night and robbed Of clothing.
In January another daring robbery took
place at the same store, the robbers help
Ing themselves TO $3.50 fur coat and much
other wearing apparel. Some time after
the last robbery Mr.. Levy, who is employed
In Mr.. Harris store, saw Thomas Ormund,
known also as "Red," wearing a pair Of
stolen trousers. This clue was given TO
City Marshal Pat Sweeney, who followed
II up promptly in concert with
Sheriff Downing. Ormund suspected
something and fed. Then
long chase began. Downing and
sweeney pursued him to the Missoula val
ley, through the Cnur d'Alenes and finally
to the Pacific coast The sheriff caught
him at Seattle and brought him to Helena
on Saturday, placing him In safe keeping
at the Jail. II Is believed that he confessed

some startling disclosures. One OF the
disclosures led to-day to the arrest OF James

In the complaint with breaking into Harris
store and robbing 1t In November last.
Hunt was about 10 leave town. He has
been shadowed ever since 0rmund's arrest
