OGDEN A TROUBLE.
Accused of Stealing Horse Sold t.
Councilman Davis.

William Yearsley, the Ogden man
from whom Councilman Davis bought
a horse that had been stolen from A.
r. Hyde, was placed under arrest and
brought to this city yesterday by Dep
uty Sheriff Busby. Yearsley is a nephew
OF Sheriff Layne of Weber county and
it is believed by those connected with
the case that the wrong man has been
placed under arrest.
Deputy BUsby, armed with a warrant
for the arrest Of Yearsley, left for G5-
den yesterday morning and soon had
his man located. He was immediately
placed under arrest and brought to this
city, where he was taken before Judge
LOchrie. YearsIey entered a plea of
not guilty. He declared that he bought
the horse from q young man by the
name of Frank Watson, who is sup
posed to be in this city now. Yearsley
said that Watson had a Dill of sale for
the horse, but that he neglected to get
n from him. He never suspected that
anything was wrong with the horse and
was greatly disturbed over the affair.
He was allowed to go on his own rec
Ognizance to look for the man who sold
him the horse.
1t is said that the matter viii likely
be Strengthened out in some way and
