Rock Springs, WyO., March S.-Dep-
uty Sheriff Pete Swanson this after
noon brought to town and landed be-
hind the bars in the city Jail Louis p
Johnson, the alleged murderer of Will
liam Strang and V. S. Hoy. Mr.. Swan
son has requisition papers for Johnson's
arrest, charged with killing William
Strang, and it was while assisting the
officers in arresting johnson that V. S.
Hoy met his death. Johnson protests
his innocence, and says he don't know
what he IS here for.
Mr.. Swanson has had an exciting
time among the outlaws in Browns
park, and from Tuesday to Friday Of
last week was without food of any
kind, being hot on the trail after the
outlaws. To Mr.. Swanson great credit
is due for capturing this noted GRIM
iral, and he is receiving cOngratula-
tons for his bravery in breaking up the
murderous gang
Although it is generally known that
Johnson is in the city, the town is quiet
and justice will undoubtedly take its
natural course.

States and the ship builders, and that
so far as they are concerned the trans
action could be concluded without much
further negotiation. While suggestions
have been made that the right of emf
nent domain would permit the United
States to take the two cruisers without
reference to Japans rights, there is no
desire among officials here to resort to
such radical steps. Moreover, it is
said that such action would be an in
ternational offense directed against
Japan, and an unfriendly act which this
government is not likely to commit at
this moment toward a friendly power.
SPECULATING ON PURCHASE.
The present negotiations contemplate
Japan's full acquiescence, but whether
they win succeed cannot be said at this
time. 1t is known positively, however.
that no overtureS have been submitted
thus far TO the authorities at Toxic, and
it would be for them to give the final
decision. Pending this contract could
not be made, nor an option given. The
negotiations took a marked step for
ward today, although as stated, they
have not yet reached the final stage.
The two cruisers are not only being
built for Japan, but they have already
become the actual property of Japan
by the payment of d considerable por-
ton of the purchase price, to-wit, ST.
$4,000 each. They are within three
months of completion on an emergency
basis. They are designed to make %
knots. which rank them among the
swiftest cruisers in the world.
This arrangement, primary and sec
ondary, is according to Japanese naval
standard. which proved so effective in
her recent war with China. The gov
eminent officials here feel that there is
not likely to be manifested an exhibit
ton of a disposition on the part of
Japan to stand upon the technical OBJ
jections to the sale of the ships to the
United States government in case the
decision is reached to purchase them,
basing this belief upon many kindly ex-
pressions that of late have come to
their notice, and to the past record of
the Japanese nation.
