which was published in The G b e
yesterday, to the effect that he had met
and spoken with Middleton within
few minutes of midnight Monday night
was sufficient to cause County Attor-
hey Anderson to throw overheard the
statements of Mrs. Wright.
On the top of this came the story
told by A. f. Arndt, postmaster at
Prior Lake, Scott county, this state.
Mr.. Arndt arrived in ST. Paul Monday
evening and that night stopped at the
Gross hotel, at 210 West Seventh street.
He with F. w. Kipp, of Blakely, Scott
county, occupied a room fronting on
Seventh street on the second floor He
was conVersing with Kipp shortly af
ter l o'clock when he heard the sound
of persons running in the direction Of
Chestnut street, and then cries of "Po-
lice! Police! Head him off," Going to
the window he saw two men running
in the direction of the Seven Corners
and it seemed to him as though the
man who was following the other a
short distance was doing the shouting.
Tuesday morning he left the hotel
early and supposed the parties had been
captured by the police. 1t was not I'M
at Red Wing there had been no ar
rests made in connection with the
murder, and he at once wrote his son,
who was in st. Paul, to notify the au-
thorities. His son, however, when
mentioning the matter to the people
at the hotel. was told not to say any
thing about the matter, as the police
would laugh at him.
This new evidence was laid before
the county attorney and had consider
able to do with the release of Mrs.
Yarnell. The Arndt story, including
full statement of that gentlemans
movements, came to Mr.. Cormican yes
terday afternoon and the letter was
turned over to County Attorney An
derson.
Chief of Detectives Schweitzer did not
care last evening to discuss the dis
charge Of Mrs Yarnell. The county
attorney, he said, had directed her dis
charge, and that was all he cared to
say. Chief Schweitzer, however, does
not incline to the theory that the shoot
ing was done by burglars, and says he
has not given this phase Of the case
any attention.
AS to the statement Of Mr.. Arndt,
about seeing two men running down
Seventh street from the direction of
the store in which the shooting oc-
Cured, shouting murder and police,

the case. That the two men had any
thing to do with the murder, the chief
says, is not possible. The men seen by
Mr.. Arndt were two blocks from Mid
dleton's store at the time, and Chief
SchWeitzer states that it would not be
reasona BILE to suppose that, after being
concerned in the shooting, the men
would run down the street shouting for
the police at the top of their voice.
Investigations made last evening
brought out the fact that the two men
seen by Mr.. Arndt were Anderson and
Flynn, who were attracted to the store
by the shooting, and were running for
police officer. PatrOlman Fillingim,
no was on West Seventh street, east
Of the Seven corners, at the time of the
shooting, stated last evening that he
heard the men calling police and ran
to meet them, and was informed by
them Of the shooting.
Detectives Murnane and Campbell
are at work on the case, but Chief
SchWeitzer last evening stated there
had been no new developments, and if
there was nothing would be given out
for publication.
