Early in the day the police department
had been given the quiet tip that either
Pat Grove was making his hiding place

knew a great deal more than he would
divulge about the kidnapping and the
letter that has been recently written
to the CUdahys threatening the death

upon the brother asleep in a Srear

took away two huge bull dog pistols
which he carried in his pockets.
Grove was put in the sweat box by
the police tonight, but denied any
knowledge of his brothers whereabouts
and that he had anything TO do with
the kidnapping. The police expect, how

The bullet was from a 3S-calibre gun
and was fired at close range, for Nish-

is at 81 Commercial street, next door

occurred. He came to Salt Lake about
a year ago.
The wounded man is about the same
age as SanO. He is a cook and is
employed at q boarding house on State
street, his cOuntrymen said. The only
words spoken by him was when Miss
Hida was attempting to tell how the
tragedy occurred. She said that Nish-
yama had shot himself. to which re-

the floor in the rear room took decided
objection by raising up and telling her
