The morning call., 1893-10-03

night. land told him briefly about the
three men and the valiss and asked him to
| let me have look at them. They were
brought out one by one, but as the light
was not very good l failed to recognize The
| first two, but when the third man was
brought out. the man with the one eye,
said to myself, That's the man sure He
| kept the side of his face with the blind eye
| away from me, but am sure it was the
| same man who came on the ear with two
other on the forming l have referred to-.
THE first time l thought about the
three men was three or four days after the
explosion. The car-dispatcher asked me
II l did not remember the three men who
| came from the direction of the park with
a valise and who left one car aud got on
another. l remembered the occasion well,
hut did not then connect the men with the
explosion. ~
'The truth is. l did not give it any
serious thought till Saturday, and then L
considered it was nv duty to inform the
Chief OF Police of what | knew. There
| fore l called at police headquarters yes
| terday. but did not see him."
| Morrison tells a straight story, and.
although up to last night the Chief was
| inclined tn look upon it with suspicion, he
| feels after Morrison's explanation as to
why he did not speak out sooner that he
is speaking nothing but the truth.
So as to make Morrson's identification
of Tyrrel and Tracy thorough lie will
have another good look at them to-day In
broad daylight.
Morrison's description of the other man
does not bear any resemblance to Woods,
| the third man under arrest, but there is a
possibility he may know something about
| the perpetrators of the outrage and may
| be induced to tell it.
| Every suggestion or clew laid before the
Chief. and there have been hundreds, has
| been carefully followed up but without
| any tangible result, with the exception of
those relating TO ths men arrested on the
morning of the explosion. If Tyrrell and
Tracy were two of the men seen by Nor
rlsou. 1t is fair to assume that the other
| man was the person who took a room at
| the Central LOdglng-hOuse on Third and
| Mission streets and left the "Axel Soren-
sen" valiSe with its death-Gealing contents
in the room. The problem now to be
| solved is. Who is this man?
| A. +. Horn, the car-starter on The Nc
| AlliSter-street line, who works at the turn
table, near the park, and was said by
| Morrison, the gripman, to have first re-
minded him of the three men carrying
| the valise who got on the Car in that
neighborhood on the morning of the 18th
| or 10Th of September. stated last night that
| the statement is incorrect.
He stated that Morrison came to him a
few days after the explosion occurred
| ana asked MIN IL ne could not recall three
| men who got on car at the time men,
| toned and who carried yalse as de-
Scribed. Horn said he was unable to do
| so and so informed Morrison at the time.
He has no recollection Of the men
although he says they may have boarded
the car and easily escaped his notice as he
pays no attention TO passengers unless
caused to Go so by some occurrence at the
| time.
1t is possible that Horns mind may be
| refreshed when ne has had more time to
I think. He was seen yesterday by a large
number of people aud asked about the
three men and may prefer not to make any
positive statement unless to the Chief of
Police.
The inquest on the bodies of Holmes
and McGinnis will be resumed this morn
