people were deceived when they paid
prices ranging from 100000 to 100000

selling price Of the Daisy, upon the wind
ing up of the affairs Of the defunct trust,
was $92, 50O the Listman sold at $65, 900;
the Anchor at 900. The assessments
on the mills this year are more than these
figures. The discussion over the matter
aroused Mr.. Eurd's combativeness some

Secretary Treasurer E. V. Douglass
of the allied companies, with, headquar-

says there is no question about the cree

which better tubes at lower prices can be
manufactured than by any other system
known. Mr.. Douglass could not say as to
when the construction Of these plants
would begin, but gave positive assurance
that they will be built. =
The fact that the carbide plant takes
20, 900 Of the $1,000 horse power developed
by the water power canal has led some
people to fear that two or three com
panies will take the entire amount OF
power furnished. Mr. Douglass says this
is a mistake The carbide plant takes the
largest block of power to be let to any one
concern and the remainder of 40, 900 horse
power will be divided into smaller lots
and furnished many industries, thus being
| of greater benefit to the 500. Mr.. Doug

veloped will all be taken in two years.

Remorse for His Crime.
jail officials say it was only to-day
that Neil Sinclair who in cold-blood shot
and killed W. H. Reyes at Eckerman.
began to realize the enormity of his crime.
On awakening this morning from q
troubled slumber, he sobbingly cried:
GLOW could I have done it? How could
I have done it?".
The body Of his victim was brought
in to-day and an autopsy performed. The
cause Of death was so apparent that no
inquest was held. The officers were
unable yesterday to find Dan Sinclair,
brother of the man who did the shooting.
and who attempted to aid the escape OF
the murderer. He was said to have made
for the woods shortly after the affair with
a companion. To-day, however, George
H. Fromm,- one of the men who so
nervily captured the murderer, landed
| the brother and brought him here. He.
| Is charged with murder as an accessory
| to the crime.
| Sheriff Swart yesterday deputized
Fromm and instructed him to arrest Dan
Sinclair on the charge. Last night, when
| the officers were returning from Ecker
man, Fromm quietly told the sheriff he
| would get the brother, though he had
escaped from Eckerman and his where
! abouts were unknown. Fronm made.
good, for he went into the woods short
distance from the scene Of the shooting
| at dusk and found Dan camped there,
| apparently awaiting an opportunity to put
a greater distance between him and the
| little village. ....- -
He was attended by a gang of his
! friends, and Fromm did not at once at
tempt to arrest him. The newly-made
| deputy again investigated Sfnclairs camp
at 1 o'clock this morning, and found that
| his friends had all gone home or were
| asleep near him. Fromm then walked
in and placed Sinclair In irons without
g struggle and without a protest from
any of the bodyguard. Dams friends
i made no effort to assist him and Fromm
| brought him into Eckerman, keeping him
i guarded all night. r
