HOLDUP SUSPECTFOUNDINB
Local Police Land Man Who Answers Every Detail Description
Daring 7obber Who Held Up the Northern Pacific Express
Mukey Canyon and Murdered ONeI, the Engineer

The theory now held by the majority
of the officers who are making careful
search for the Northern Pacific holdup
is that the nervy outlaw is not in the
hills as many supposed but that he is
living here in Butte.
This morning an arrest was made by
Officer Hayne which may lead to the iden-
tifcation of the man. He was drunk
when arrested by the officer OH West
Park street this morning, but it was
discovered at police headquarters that he
feigned drunkenness for some reason or
other.
He gave the name of p Mulcahy and
was very uncommunicative when arrested
and when questioned by Officer McGillic
this morning at the jail.
He answers the description OF the rob-
ber in nearly every detail. He has a cold
cruel gray eye, the stopped shoulders and
narrow chest described by the people of
the Northern Pacific train who were close
enough to the holdup to scrutinize him
carefully and walks with the shambling
gait SO well noted by the railroad men
who were obliged to walk up the side
of the mountain with him. He is narrow
chested and walks with his hands and
arms thrown peculiarly to the rear. He
has a black slouch hat wears corduroy
trousers and REFER, which covers an
overall jacket.
He Looks Like a Desperate.
He presents the appearance of dcs-
perate character and the steady pcne-
trating CLEAN of his eye indicates that
he would face the most dangerous kind
of situation. When brought before
Judge Boyle he looked very carefully
about the court room, rested his eyes
for a moment on his honor and then
hung his head. When called up to listen
to the reading of the complaint by Clerk
Vim, he assumed an air of complete
abandon and did not offer to pay the
fine of IS imposed on him for drunken
ness. He smiled cynically and followed
Sol Levy back to Jail.
Officer McGillic surveyed the prisoner
with the greatest care while he was in
the court room and then determined to
have talk with him.
When asked where he came from to
Butte, he turned look Of supreme dis

asked where he was on Thursday and Fri

any room, that he had few dollars and
that he spent most of his time hanging
around saloons.

SAYS ALL EVIDENCE WAS
MADE BY THE SbHiE HAND
Charge Made That Effort Is on to Keep
Witnesses From Attending the Trial
district Attorney OF New York City
Appeals to Governor Of New Jersey to
Give Him Square Deal-Says He
Cannot Get Necessary People to Trial.
lBY ASSOCIATED PRESS

New York, Oct. zs.-Herbert L.
Twitchell, an assistant teller at the Chase
National bank, testified as an expert in
handwriting today in the trial of Roland
B. Molineux. He said he had carefully ex-
amined all the handwriting exhibits in the
case, the conceded and disputed writings,
including the poison package address, and
he believed that all were written by the
same hand.
Edwin b. Hay, a handwriting expert OF
Washington, agreed with the other experts
who have been called that all the writings
in the case disputed and admitted, were
made by the same hand.
District Attorney Jerome has, according
to the New York American, made per-
sonal appeal to Governor Franklin Murphy
Of New Jersey, at his home i'll Newark,
for aid in preventing the consunmation OF
what is alleged to be an effort to prevent
the state Of New York from getting wit
nesses from New Jersey to testify in the
Molineux trial.
This course was decided upon after the
district attorney had heard the report OF
two detectives who declare that all their
efforts have been frustrated.
Who They Are.
The witnesses who are wanted include
Mamie Melando, Robert A. Zellcr, Detec-
tive Sergeant Joseph Farrell and Detec-
tives Glory and Curran of the Newark
force.
Mr.. Jerome's detectives assert that Ma
mie Melando's home is under constant
guard to protect her from being kidnapped
and carried TO New York, and they were
unable to find other witnesses who we're
said to be on vacations.
The Newark police officials say they will
not force their men to testify in the case
and the district attorney finally appealed
to the governor. There is no legal means
Of bringing the witnesses from another
state, and Mr. Jerome has been reported as
saying that he will endeavor, in case these
efforts fail to have the testimony taken in
New Jersey and submitted by reading.

DR.. EDGAR LAUR|N
GETS LOOSE AGAIN.
KNOWN TO POLICE
is AGAIN UP FOR CREATING Dis
TURBANcE IN SALOON.

Excessive indulgence in cocaine caused
DIR. Edgar Laurin TO create rough house
IN the thirst parlors Of George Fitchen
this noon which resulted in his arrest by
Officer Lyden. The physician was badly
beaten up when he was brought into the
police station and will be kept quite busy
attending to his wounds when he rccovers
from the effects Of the drug to which he
has become so strongly addicted.
II was thought by the majority OF the
people around police headquarters that DIR.
Laurin was not a practitioner, but was
nicknamcd Doe 1t was discovered from
his personal effects, however that he has
not only performed some very skillful oper-
ations near Montreal where he practiced
before coming to Butte, but that he grad
uated with the highest honors from the
medical school Of Magil university of
Canada. Newspaper clippings and various
documents he had in his possession today
testify to these facts.
Since he came to Butte he has been
slave to the cocaine habit and has been
unable to do much at his profession.

He Is an Old Hand.
He was toe to answer any questions

ton the inquiries which the officer made
OF him.
Where did you come from here!" he
was asked.
Il was working over in Elk Park and
came to Butte the other day." he replied
mechanically.
What were you doing up therc?'

the police are satisfied as to his identity.
They feel that since he fits the descrip-
ton Of the holdup in nearly every par
tcular he should be held for some time.
Policeman Sayers of Helena, who was
been working harder on the holdup than
any other officer in the state, is firmly
convinced that the man who was daring
enough to do such job alone is charac-
ter of the boldcst type who would have the
courage to come right back to Butte. In
asmuch as the man was traced back to
the train that was held up there is good
reason to suspect that he came to Butte.
Whether he remained here is question
which Officer Sayers is anxious to settle
in his own mind so that he can keep
hot OH his trail If he left here again.
He was working on the case last night
and did not go to bed until daylight. He
will see Mucahy at the Jail this after
noon and determine whether it Is worth
while to- keep him in custody.
Sayers Thinks It Is He.
Officer Sayers of Helena talked with
Mulcahy, the suspected holdup, a while at
the city Jail this afternoon and requested

Full Statement Of Complaint Made by
Physician Who Attended Dr. Caylcy
IN His Last Illness and Something of
the Reasons Hanson Puts Forth in His
Suit for a Tidy Little Fortune.

Dr. II. II. Hanson has commenced suit
III the district court against the Butte
Miner for the recovery of $4,000 dam
ages, alleged to have been done him bv
that newspaper in an article referring to
his treatment of the late Dr. Henry A.
Caylcy
The complaint, filed in the office of the
clerk OF the district court this morning
covers nine typewriter pages, and rccites
al length the reasons way the complainant
believes he was damaged and the extent
TO winch his practice suffers from the
criticism alleged TO have been published
III the Miner last Saturday, October as.
FROM the complaint il appears that the
physician believes that the article, which
is quoted at length in the complaint was
a reflection on his professional ability and
was published ''of and concerning his skill
as physician and surgeon"
One of the causes of the complaint is
found in the following paragraph, which
is quoted fro": .hc Miner as follows:
Might Suspect Something.
First of ALL there will be a few in.

Tor It Is thought that had Dr. CayIcy had
the benefit OF the best possible treatment
IN all respects the final result in his ease
might have been materially delayed
While the Miner has no disposition to
discuss the details of medical and surgical
science III this connection, IL believes that
the friends Of the dead physician have a
right to question the judgment Of the
men who would make diligent search
for the lost bullet in the pelvic region
when IL was located in the neck"
After reviewing the circumstances which
led up TO the unfortunate affair and
quoting at length the alleged injurious ar
ticlc, the complaint goes OH TO state
That by the publication and circulation
of the above and foregoing article the
defendant intended and said article does
not imputc 10 this plaintiff the lack of
sufficient medical or surgical knowledge
or ability TO properly attend 10 the wounds
inflicted upon the said DIR. Cayley, and
by said article the defendant imputed to
this plaintiff lack Of proper judgment and
understanding in the matter Of attending
