found shortly before midnight in an

were raiding the place for another pur-

the murder. One is William West,
whose daughter Erickson is accused of
having ruined, and the other is James
Garrahan, thes owner of the shanty.
Both men refused to talk when arrest

West and Garrahan lured Erickson into
the shanty about o'clock p. m. and
then hacked him to pieces with the
bloody axe which the police now have.
What puzzles the officers is the cool.

Indifference of the alleged perpetrators
to arrest. A light was burning in the
room, nothing had been done towards
disposing of the body, and when the
men were discovered they were enjoy

who is said to have been ruined by
Erickson, was sent to the reform school
at Plankinton, and was few weeks
ago burned to death in the fire there.
Garrahan made confession later in
the day to the chief of police, in which
he implicated West in the killing.
