Three Negroes Arrested.

Three negroes who had worked with
a section gang just previous to the
murder of little Louise Frost, several
days ago, at Limon, Colo, were arrest
ed on suspicion at Denver Sunday. A
rigid 'sweat box" examination failed
even to elicit a reply to the inquiry as
to their names. They are being held
for further investigation.
One of the three suspects arrested Ia
named Porter, concerning him special
from Limon says:
"Young Porter is the colored man
suspected of the deed. He was laying
off the afternoon of the murder and
hung around the barroom at the Limon
hotel until about 3 o'clock Thursday.
Two marbles found in the firs were
identified by boy who saw Porter
playing with them during the noon
hour. The clothes are undoubtedly
those of Porter. 1t is said that he has
served term in the reform school In
Kansas for assault before.

members of his family as to details.
At the DAILY home he was said to have
finished the will and signed it less than
twenty-four hours before his death.
No other information was given except
that the DAILY holdings in the Anacon-
da Mining company had not been dis
posen of, as reported several years ago,
but would change ownership under the
will
Marcus DAILY was born in Ireland in
lS42, He came to the United States
early in life, and since 1876 has been a
citizen of Montana. fIe became gen.
eral manager of the Alice silver mine
and later came into control of the
Anaconda Copper mine. At the time
of his death he was president OF the
Amalgamated Copper company.
No mining property has achieved
greater fame as a producer of dividends
than the famous Anaconda. Originally
bought as silver mine, it became
famous for its copper, and to it both
DAILY and Clark largely owe their vast
fortunes. BSGR M the seventies two
miners named Hickey, from st. Law
renee county, New York, went to Mon
tana. They selected u hill overlooking
the little mining camp of Butte and
began TO sink their shaft. They struck
a fair vein of silver, but lack of funds
made them stop work and offer to sell.
Marcus Daily bought the property for
S35, 900 He acted for j. b. Hagin of
California, who had sent him to Butte
to buy him some good mining property.
AS the newcomers ran their shaft
down they opened one Of the worlds
greatest copper mines, with silver
enough to pay all expenses and leaving
the copper as clear profit. Daily was
superintendent and part owner OF the
great mine. lie bought the adjacent
properties. He founded the town of
Anaconda in a valley twenty five miles
distant, and located where there is an
exhaustless supply Of water and great
deal of wood-two indispensables for
the smelling and reduction of ores. At
that place he erected the greatest cop
per plant in the world.
In politics he was Democrat. The
differences between Mr.. DAILY and w.
A. Clark have attracted much atten-
ton. The trouble started years ago
over some water rights near Butte
which DAILY wanted and which Clark
had bought, forcing the other to pay a
very high figure.

Bearing Evidences of Assault

Louise Frost, II years old, daughter
OF q rauchman, was found Friday
night, unconscious and bleeding from
many wounds, in a patch OF weeds
about half mile from her home at
Limon, Colo. She had been stabbed,
apparently with a dirk, no less than
fourteen times. She died at midnight
without having regainsd conscious
ness
The physician who attended her en-
pressed the opinion that the girl had
been grossly maltreated before re-
ceiving the stab wounds. She was
waylaid when driving home from
school, for her horse reached the stable
about dark with the buggy empty.
Posses are securing the country In
every direction and the murderer will
probably be lynched II captured.
The sheriff of Lincoln county came
from Hugo with posse to aid the citi-
zens of Limon in the search for the
murderer. He offers reward of $500
for tho capture of the guilty person,
dead or alive. and tho same amount for

Famous Copper King suecumbs to Heart

FAMOUS copper King Suecumbs to Heart
Trouble In New York.
Marcus DAILY, one of the leading
mine.owners of the world, died in his
apartments in the Hotel Netherlands,
New York, at 8 o'clock Monday morn
Ing, November l2, aged 60 years. Di.
lation of the heart and Bright's disease
of the kidneys, with resultant compli-
cations, were the immediate cause of
death, though Mr.. Daly's illness dated
back several years. He had suffered
severely during the last two months,
but the end was painless. While he
was surrounded by members of his
family, his life went out SO eacefully
that only the physicians in attendance
knew that he had found rest.
Breathing fumes.of arsenic in smelt-
ers, where copper ore from his mines
was treated, and living in the high al
titudes of Montana, weakened his
heart. He realized that his constitu-
tion had been broken, but not l~,on
enough give himself opportunity to
recuperate. He at last went to New
York and consulted three eminent
specialists in diseases OF the heart.
They all made the same diagnosis and
advised him to foresake active busi-
ness life.
Fretting under these orders, Mr.
Duly t, ha; al, ~;

said to be too stimulating in cases of
dilation of the heart. Upon being told
that death could not long be delayed,
he hurried back to New York, hoping
against hope that those who had pre-
viously helped him might prolong his
life.
Mr.. DAILY returned from Europe
about the middle of September. He
was then told that his physicians had
confirmed the opinion of those at Nau-
helm that his days could not be many.
He wished to be taken to his new
