THE Inquest.

| Little of Importance Brought to Light
Mr Aliens Testimony.
BUTTE, June I.-[Special. AT the in
quest to-day little new was developed. The
most important witness was Helena liv-
| eryman named A. T. Allen. He arrived in
Butte Tuesday and in the evening went to
the home of Mr.. Hutchinson, back of the
| court house. He went down Montana
street, reaching the corner of Galena about
ll:3O. He saw man leaning against u
post at the northeast corner of the streets.
Another man stood against post at the
southeast corner. He went on down the
street and between Mercury and Galena
met lady walking alone dressed in black.
She was walking rather fast and was COM
ing up the hill. The witness
went to MeComas' livery stable,
found it locked and returned to
the corner of Montana and Galena. When
he returned he found two men at the corner
of the streets and one still at the southwest
corner. 1t WAS about l1:45. Then he went
east on Galena street. The man on the
southwest corner had club in his
hand, which tho witness thought was a
policeman's club. When he reached the
corner of Main street he heard Il shot.
This evening Belle Browning was brought
before Allen TO see il he eould recognize her
as tho woman he saw on Montana street.
He could not state positively whether she
was tho woman or not. 1t was similar
woman. but he had not seen the woman on
Montana street closely enough To state
positively ii it was the same woman.
The inquest has been adjourned until
Saturday in the hopo that meanwhile some
thing more definite will be discovered.

he said. TO his warmest friends he
gave no other reason for going east,

he intends to bring back with him
something more than the goods. When
his business in New York is ended he
will visit Holland, Ont, where he will
meet Miss Minnie Creighton, and on
Tuesday the couple will take promi-

valuable. Instances are numerous of
