South Bend, Ind, July 81. w. Nor
rison, 65 years Of age, Is In solitary
confinement at the Central police sta
ton, charged with the murder OF John
8. Johnston and with arson. An effort
is being made to locate j. w. Morrison,
Jr., with the evident Intention OF also
placing him under arrest.
The elder Morrison was proprietor OF
the Hotel Morrison, which burned on
the night of June 10, resulting in the
death of John s. Johnston and Louis C..
Smart, and the injury of several other
guests. The warrant on which Nor
irison was arrested was issued by Jus
tice l.. c. Whitcomb on the complaint OF
Dino ID. Johnston, brother of one OF
the victims. POLICE Captain Cassidy
made the arrest at O'clock Saturday
evening.
A prevailing belief that the fire was
due to incendiarisln. strengthened by
developments since then, has kept the
South Bend public in constant state OF
excitement that reached it's highest
pitch when the load of responsibility
was shouldered upon Proprietor Nor
rison. Il remains for the courts to es-
tablish the guilt or innocence OF the
aged man.
Chiefeof Police Turnock and Coroner
4. Dugsstle have been working diligent-
" on tn case since the morning after
the fire AID 1t is on the strength OF the
evidence secured by them that the arr
rest was made. 1t is claimed that they
feel confident OF conviction, Testi-
mony has also been gathered by May
Chose, Paul Anderson and newspaper
men.
Howeve: valuable may be the testi-
mony presented, the conditions that en-
listed in the hotel after the fire was ex-
tinguished are regarded as being OF the
utmost Importance. The police and
others who visited the ruined structure
after the fire and made careful exam
lnation have since expressed arm be.
lief that the blaze was started BY the
application of match to inflammable
material. Attention in particular is di-
rected to a piano which was wrapped in
SOFT material and the only thing which
burned In the room where it stood. Even
the tiimsy curtains hanging in the same
room were not scorched. From the ex-
lamination ii appeared that xhe fire was
started in three different places-n the
basement, OH the first floor and on the
third floor.
