ABERDEEN, S. D., March 16.-Lee
Barnes, a barber of this city, was ar
rested tonight on complaint OF one
Owen, charged with being Tascott. the
murderer OF Millionaire Smell, of Chi
cagO. Barnes examination was ad-
1Ourned until Wednesday at 10 a. m.,
when a man named Clark. who gave
much valuable information to the grand
jury which indicted Tascott, will ar
rive to identify the prisoner. Owen has
been working on the case for year,
being struck with the remarkable re-
semblance of Barnes to pictures and
descriptions of TascOtt. He succeeded
in getting a picture of Barnes and for
warded it to his brothers, j. q. and
Willis Owen, of Chicago, who showed it
to Clark and States Attorney Longe-
necker and number of detectives apd
officers who worked on the case. Clark
declared the photo more closely resem-
bled IaScOtt than any before seen by
him. Some of the detectives thought
Barnes "tOO StOcky'' for TaScOtt, but ad
mItted the startling resemblance. Owen
claims that Longenecker advised
the arrest Of Barnes. Up to tonight
the ocation of the supposed
Tascott is kept from Clark,
whom Owens feared would seek the
murderer on his own account and claim
the reward. Barnes has been here
year, and Is reckless and dlssipated. de
has been remarkably retiCent concern
ing the past, was never known to re-
ceiye letters. and has no relatives and
friends hereabuuts. He claims to be
thirty-tiye years old, but looks younger.
He is feet inches in height and
weighs l65 or more; has light hair, i'll
clined to be red. prominent hazel eyes
and small sandy muatache. His face
is full and red, his body erect. A con-
census of opinion is here that it is an
other case OF wrong man, though Owens
is unshaken in the belief that the MUIR
dertr of Smell is at last captured. The
remarkable resemblance certainly war
rants his arrest, however.
