were at that time set with diamonds and
were very valuable, but the stones had
been removed At the time the house
was entered a gold watch and chain was
also among the articles stolen, but they

Mr.. Cries added his mite to the regular
lot yesterday. Mr.. Cries found that two
skeleton keys had been thrown by Gray
in the ash pan of the kitchen stove. Both
of these keys easily unlocked the doors
in the kitchen. A gold pen with pearl
handle, which belonged to Mrs Cries
was found under the sink where it had
been thrown by Gray the night he was
arrested. Gray had made desperate
effort to get rid of all the stuff h. had
on his person the night he was caught in
] the house.
I 1t is learned now that Gray has Served
a term in Butte for burglary, and came
/ here shortly afterWard to work Salt Lake.
Gray made a statement that his parents
were well known society people, and he
did not want his picture to appear in the
papers. This statement is not believed
| by the police. From the Identification OF
! the ear rings by Mrs. Richter it would
/ seem that Gray was in the city about the
I 24th of last October. 1t is thought that
he was here about that time and then
! left for Butte and returned about ten
days ago. 1t is very probable that Gray
| is the man who has done nearly all the
burslarizing in the city for several
months past.
