Reported to Have Been Tracked Down
in Montreal.
Chicago, Dec. lin a telegram received
here tonight at the local offices OF the
Money & Boland detective agency the
capture of William r. Miller. accused OF
having been connected with the Franklin
syndicate swindle In New York. was an
rlounced as having been effected at Mon
treai by tho agency's operatives, VINO nave
been In pursuit Of the fugitive ever since
his disappearance 10 days ago
Early in the morning General Manager
Sutherland of the detective agency hrst
wired that Miller had been located in
Montreal and that the Identification was
complete. Later In the day another mes
sage announced that he had been safely
lodged behind the bars ,-..
After the announcement or the capture
was made in Chicago the wires to Mon
treal and New York were kept busy by
newspapers wanting to learn particulars
of the arrest, but nothing in confederation
could be obtained from either city. This
failure to verify the truth of the local
agency's information was, according to
the agency manager Brown, easily ex-
nlained on the theory that the detectives
had started at once with their captive
across the border into American territory.

many counties, in attendance. Secre-
tary Hedges presented his annual re-
port as far as prepared and it was
ADOPTED. He reported the industry in
hourishing condition and offered a
number of recommendations for the
benefit of the business. The state board
OF equalization came in for a large roast
because of the increased assessment OF
sheep. Many commissioners have not
reported to the secretary as to the num-
Der of sheep, SO that the report is not
complete. The question of compensa-
ton for sheep inspectors has been some-
thing of mooted one The matter was
referred to a special committee. The
committee reported favoring the allow
ance of IS per day for the first inspec-
ton of local sheep with the under
standing that expenses for the inspec-
ton Of export sheep shall first be APP
proved by the commissioners Of the re-
spective counties. In regard to a scab
cure it was decided that the same dip
shall be used as that prescribed by the
national government, consisting of sui
phur, lime and tobacco, and that for
other troubles the other dips usually
sold shall be used.

O'Briens blows fell with a force that
was not behind Ernes. 1t was the old
case of clean boxer against hurricane
fighter. Or tho two O'Brlen's face bore
the worst marks. Both his eyes were
badly damaged and his mouth and nose
puffed up. Erne's left eye was smashed,
but this will not hurt him half as much
as the punishment he received in tho
body during the MILL O'Brien invariably
got in pile-driving blows on the stomach,
ribs and kidneys, and the frequent visi-
tations of his fists left red welts on the
Buffalo mans body.
O'Brien was an even money favorite
about the 18th round. while before the
fight began 100 to 70 was laid against him.
During the fight O'Brien scored three
knockdowns while none was recorded
