OGDEN, June 10. - Especial. - Still
nothing has been heard of j. Henry
Taylor, Of Plain City, who disap-
peared SO mysteriously last Friday,
and his friends and relatives have
given up all hope of ever finding him
alive, as they reason be would never have
committed suicide or deserted his family,
which was, before this unfortunate state
of affairs existed, one of the happlest IN
the country. All the searchers have re-
turned from the mountains but without
having found any signs of the missing
man, other than those already detailed in
this department. Tie most important
discovery yet made was that of Sheriff
Belnap who returned this morning from
the search, The sheriff has found that
Taylor's mare came down out of the north
Ogden canyon without rider, and that
the reason the animal arrived home with
the saddle and other accoutrements in
such good order was because several gen.
tlemen had passed it, and frightened the
2irth and fastened the reins to the horn
of the saddle. 1t is the sheriff's opinion
that the three shots which were heard by
the sheepherders on Friday night, meant
something, and that Taylor is sither out
of the country or his body will be found
within half mile OF the last claim which
he visited. a party will go into the
mountains again tomorrow. Coroner
Allen will accompany the searchers.
THE BODY FOUND.
Later-The body of James Henry Taylor
has been reported to have been found,
with two bullet holes in his head, in
a n mil
this city. The report is considered
authentic. The men who found his re-
mains have gone on the trail of the sup
posed assassins. The report was an
nounced in this city about o'clock, and
at about o. clock Sheriff Belknap started
Tor Paradise Creek and will stay with the
case unless satisfied t it is hoax.
Nothing definite ca be lated as to the
