HUNTED DOWN.
The Pinkertons Cause tire Ar
rest of Three Men for
Murder.
Weaving the Chain of Evidence
Against w. ]. Penrose's
Slayers.

BUTTE, July 2s.-The arrest OF w.
+. Deeney, Eugene Z. Kelly and Phil
Hickey, charged with the murder Of
w. J. Penrose. is the all absorbing
topic Of discussion in Butte. Deeney
and Kelly are two of the lessees of the
Late Acquisition mine, whine Hickey
only lately left for Boise City, Idaho,
where he had gone into business. hav-
irg sold his property interests in this
city. Hickey was arrested in Boise
City by Detective J. c. MeGinn of
the Pinkerton detective force. Deeney
and Kelly were arrested while on the
their way TO the Acquisition mine,
where they we're at work.
When placed under arrest Kelly's
face turned pale and he showed evi-
dence Of nervousness. Deeney re-
marked that they expected it. After
the IOen were placed In jail the prom
ises they occupied were searched, and
a 3S-caliber revolver was found. No
one-nOt even an attorney-has been
permitted to enter the jail with a view
to talking TO the prisoners. and IL is
the intention to keep everybody out
for the present at least. This is being
done at the request Of the detectives
and attorneys.
A rumor IL current about town that
Hickey would turn states evidence,
and that he had in fact made a clean
breast Of the whole affair. tut this is
not believed, although IL is stated that
Hickey made the statement a short
time ago that he would squeal in order
to save his owD neck.
Ever since the murder was commit
ted detectives nave been working on
tue case, and IN fact were ready to
make the arrests several days ago, but
County Attorney Baldwin desired to
first look over the testimony addueed
at the coroner's inquest. and also the
evidence collected since then before
making the complaint. Up to ashort
time ago the work was in charge Of c.
w. Wilson, assistant superintendent
Of Pinkerton's men at Chicago. but
about three weeks ago Superintendent
J. G. MeGinn. CT the western division
of the PInkerton force, with head
quarters at st. Paul, Joined Mr.. Will
son, and the work has been progress
ing rapidly since that time.
One of the minor links In the chain
OF evidence is the discovery Of the
place at which the billy or loaded club
was made. This club, it will be re-
membeT6d, consisted of a piece of
shovel handle abaut fourteen inches
long, with a heavy iron spike len
inches long driven into one end. 1t
was picked up in ]. H. Harper's yard
on the morning after the murder, and
IL known 10 have teen thrown there
by one Of the men while running
down Montana street Immediately
after the murder.
Mrs. Kelly, mother Of E. f. Kelly,
was allowed to visit her son In jail In
company with a deputy sheriff. So
far che is the only person who has been
allowed access TO the prisoners.
