IMPORTANT WITNESSES.
Peck and Blowers Know ALI About
the Machines

! Discussing the evidence against Nc
Donnell, an officer says that the story
of the boy Peck, as he heard it at Eu-
reka the other night. would be sufficient
to convict, even were there no other
witnesses Peck, it seems, worked with
Mcdonnell in the Diamond mines, and
observed all his actions, which he con-
sidered very peculiar. The young man
/ says he had a preSentiment that Nc
DonneH was mo good when he first
came there, and he kept his eyes on
him. In addition to seeing the accused
take dynamite from the store room on
numerous occasions, he says he saw
him at work on the machines down
some distance from the mine in gulch.
Young Peck is bright and can connect
his statements in way that makes
him an invaluable witness.
The officers are reluctant about Civ
ing the whole of Peck's story, but as
one expressed it: He has the propo-
sition down so pat that he can tell just
how long the string was that was at
tached to the pistol trigger in BOWS
box" Mcdonnell is said to have con-
fessed to Peck. and tried to make con-
federate of him.
1t develops now that Blowers was
with Mcdonnell when he bought the
muslin in which the machines were
wrapped, and the assertion is made that
he (Blowers) knew that machine was
being constructed and supposed that it
was intended to destroy a saloon keeper
named Harvey. with whom Mcdonnell
had trouble quite recently. Harvey
knocked Mcdonnell down in saloon,
and the latter afterward gave the sa-
loon man sound thrashng. Bad blood
has existed, and it viii probably be
brought out at the trial that Blowers
knows something OF the machines and
their existence

.DOANE ORDERED SET FREI
TRAVELLING SALESMAN AC-
CUSED OF LARCENY.
Said to Have Snatched a Watch From
An Ogden Man at Saltair One
Night In July.

William Doane, who was charged
with grand larceny. was ordered set
free by Judge Norrell yesterday, on
motion of County Attorney Putnam
The defendant, who came to Salt Lake
from Buffalo, n. Y. in July, claiming
to be a travelling salesman was ar
rested at Saltair on the night of July
%. He was charged with snatching a
watch from a. w. Bowley of Ogden.
The timepiece was found a few min
utes later in one of the Salt Lake G.
Los Angeles cars.
Doane was held by Justice McMaster
in $3.50 bond, which he was unable to
give. His only defense was that he
had been drinking to a considerable ex-
tent the evening he was arrested, and
that he had no recollection of the crime
with which he was charged.
Doane's brother came in from the
east several days ago and used every
possible effort to secure the defendants
discharge. In making his motion to
dismiss, Mr.. Putnam stated that he
very much doubted the states ability
to convict. He said also that the prose-
cutting witness was in Nevada and not
particularly anxious to appear against

Examination of Mcdonnell Post
poned Until Today.
PRISONER IS INDIFFERENT
SAYS HE WILL NOT CALL ANY
WITNESSES.
Has No Attorney and Is Not Likely
to Attempt Defense at the Pre-
liminary Hearing-The Case Will
Come Up at IL O'clock This
Morning

James j. Mcdonnell, the supposed dy-
namiter, was brought into Judge Tim
monys court at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning for preliminary examination,
but, as forecasted, owing to the nom
arrival of important witnesses for the
state from Eureka, the case was post
poned until IL o'clock this forenoon.
Mcdonnell was in his usual happy-go-
lucky mood, and manifested utter in
difference in matters of vital import
ance to himself, even to the engaging
of counsel to plead his case.
Tie prisoner chatted with newspaper
men and police officers before the time
set for the hearing, and was, as usual,
very talkative regarding himself. He
read the morning Herald and took spe-
ciai delight in perusing his own state
ment. He glanced up occasionally to
make some observation in the CONVEX
sation between the officers, and stran-
ger in the room would have taken him
for a backwoods sheriff, rather than
a man accused OF a hellish crime.
With alacrity Mcdonnell went into

RESEMBLANCE OF BUTLER.
Why Mcdonnell Gave That Name al
Eureka

The police believe they have discov-
cred McDonnells motive in shipping the
boxes from Eureka, if he did So under
the name of Butler. and that it was
more than a mere chance that he gave
that name. When Officer Randolph ar
rived at Eureka last Saturday night he
began inquiring for the man who sent
the boxes as man named Butler. He
gave one citizen description of Nc
Donnell, and mentioned the name of
Butler in connection with it. Imme-
diately the citizen told him where But
Ter was located, and the officer thought
he had his man that night. He found
the real Butler and the resemblance to
the man wanted was SO close that I'm
Gle Abe was startled
1t is believed that Mcdonnell took
advantage of this resemblance when he
sent the boxes.

STORY OF A MISSING WATCH
RICHARD BEYNON CHARGED
WITH ITS THEFT.
Came All the Way From Cisco to
Answer the Charge and Is Very
Indignant.

Richard Beynon. who has charge of
a gang of painters working on the Rio
Grande Western in Grand county. was
arraigned before Justice Pardee yes
terday on the charge of grand larceny.
Mr.. Beynon, VINO came all the way
from Cisco to answer the charge. was
tquite indignant that such an accusa-
ition should be MADE against him.
. During the latter part of July, as he
told the story yesterday, he and II J.
Cooper, the Cisco agent of the railroad,
were wrestling in a friendly manner
1t seems that on the next day Cooper
missed his watch. which he values at
$40. After that he was given thirty
days leave. He claims to have found
the watch in q. Salt Lake pawn shop,
and he believed that in the wrestling
bout Beynon took 1t. He accordingly
had complaint made out.
Beynon was arTaigned and pleaded
not guilty yesterday afternoon. Coun-
cilmen Allen and Barnes signed his
bond for $3.50. Beynon is a stepson of
Councilman Allen and he comes from
an old Utah family.
