"FOOLING" OF TWO BOYS ENDS
In THE DEATH OF ONE OF THEM.

Eric Danielson, aged Is years, was
struck on his head by a pointed wire
thrown by Menus johnson, IA years of.
age. at the Crompton Company's Fus-
tian mill at Crompton yesterday after
noon. The wound inflicted by the wire
was so severe as 10 cause death almost
instantly.
The two boys had been fooling for some
time, and consequently there are different
stories as to why the Johnson boy should
throw a wire at Eric Danielson. Some
employees say that the elder youth was
wont to pick upon the younger, but no
one remembers OF any degree OF hatred
between the two boys. IL seems how
ever, that as IL was nearly time 10 shut
down the boys were probably fooling with
one another. and as the johnson boy
was getting the worst OF IL he became
momentarfly angry. In his anger he pick
ed UP the pointed wire and threw IL at
Dantelson, probably not dreaming of the
results.
The sharp point OF the wire struck
young Danielson In the lobe OF the right
ear, and with such force as to penetrate
not only the feshy part OF that member
but also the base OF Danielson's skull

TWO men ARE CAPTURED
BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN IN THE
MONTANA EXPRESS ROBBERY.
One Is Thought to Have Shot the
Knoxville Policemen Last Week
Both Are at Knoxville.

KNOXVILLE. Tenn, Dec. 16-A man
who the police say is the one who shot
two Knoxville policemen Thursday night,
and who they first thought was Harry
Longbaugh, but now believe is Harvey Lo-
gan, alleged to have been concerned in the
Montana train robbery, was captured with
companion late this evening one mile
from Jefferson City, Tenn, twenty miles
from Knoxville The escape of the man
that shot the policemen was followed by
the discovery of a flood of unsigned $50
Montana bank notes. and on the person OF
the man arrested to-day was found over
5000 of the stolen bills. A B. Carey. a JEFF
ferson City merchant, telephoned police
headquarters in this city this afternoon
that he believed he had seen the much
wanted man and a companion in Jefferson
City. Local officers hurried to the scene by
special train but arrived too late to partici-
pate in the capture. Carey and four other
men first caught man who gives his name
John Drees, of Louisville, Ky. The other
one was found in patch of woods one mile
away He was slow about putting up his
hands but finally surrendered. When taken
he gave his name as Wilson. Both men
were brought here tonight.
Police officers almost certain that
they have both Longbaugh and Harvey
Logan. Wilson fills Logan's description
precisely, except that ne is now clean
shaven instead of wearing a full beard. On
his head are scars which the local officers
say were made by the policeman's club.
Drees about fills Longbaugh's description.
The man who gives his name Wilson alb
solutely refuses to talk, saying he has no
name and doesn't know how he received the
scars on his head. Drees claims to be a
molder by trade.
