THAT THE COLORADO NAN

Under Sheriff Murphy left Cripple
Greek, Colo, yesterday with Dan Lucey,
alias Sullivan, who is wanted in this city
for the alleged murder of Patrick l..
Regain in Silver Bow canyon last Septem-
Der. Before starting with his prisoner
he wired the sheriff's office here and the
message was received this morning. The
message was brief, simply stating that
the man was Lucey beyond all doubt,
and he would land him in Butte.
Lucey was arrested by a policeman in
a saloon at Victor, a short distance from
Cripple Greek. He entered the place and
Jack Sullivan, formerly of this city, rec
ognized him. Sullivan notified a police
man present and the officer nailed Lucey.
A struggle ensued, but the policeman
overpowered his mar and landed him in
Jail. When the under sheriff went to the
Jail to see him Lucey pretended to not
know him, but it would not work, and he
said he would return to Montana without
requisition papers. He was surly and
r%eticent on matters pertaining to the
commission of the crime with which he
stands charged. He Will arrive in Butte
tomorrow afternoon.
The sheriff's office received word from
the sheriff of ChOteau county this morn
ing to the effect that a man answering
the description of Peter Normandie had
been arrested there by him and awaited
the disposition Of the officers Of Silver
Bow. Deputy Sheriff Aware left for
Great Falls this afternoon to bring Nor
mandie back to Butte. The crime of
which Normandie is charged is that Of
robbery. About two weeks ago a cabin
on the Big Hole river was entered and
looted of everything valuable it con-
tanned. Suspicion pointed to Nornandie
and a man named Elmer Ensinger as the
perpetrators, and officers were sent in
search Of them. Two days later the lat
ter was arrested in Anaconda, brought
to Butte and locked up. Since then
search for Normandie has been in prog
ress, but it was not until the latter part
of last week that his whereabouts were
learned. He was then in Great Falls.
At that time Deputy Sheriff Aware went
to the Falls after him, but discovered
that his man had zone to the northern
part of the county. When the sheriff OF
Choteau arrested Normandie he gave his
name as Mathews, but it was afterwards
learned that this was the name of his
stepfather and he had simply assumed
it for the sake of convenience.
AS a director of the Milwaukee Mining
company, John H. Curtis swore to a
complaint in the county attorneys office
this morning charging a man named
John Doe with having assisted in the
work Of d~ismantling the Milwaukee
mine, about two miles west of the city.
The complaint was filed in Justice Har-
rington's court. It Is quite probable that
some of the many Does with which the
city is full will be iassoed and compelled
to answer the charge of theft. Two or
three are suspected.
The Milwaukee has not been in oper-
alton for some time, and when it was
closed down the machinery was allowed
to remain in position. At various times
since then people have been carrying it
| away piece at a time, until it is nearly
all zone, the only portion left being the
boiler, the stone foundation which the
bed of the engine rested, and the mine
shaft. The officers of the company be-
lieve that had the theft not been dis
covered the entire works. shaft house and
shaft included, would have been hauled
away. Even a spring or pcllucid water
from which the neighbors Stake their
thirst, has been tempered with, the box
which confined it to specific bounds hay
ing been smashed, pulled up by the roots
and scattered to the four winds in a
vain endeavor to sWipe the stream.
