Whatsmay prove to be an important
clue to the. mystery to the murder
of George Mitchell, whose body was
found ina clump Of bushes near the
Monroe street bridge, is the arrest
and detention by the United States
authorities of an Indian named
Charlie Washington, who also goes
by several other titles.
He was picked up last night on
Main street in a very drunken state.
His tongue was very loose while he
was under the influence of the liquor
and told the officers who arrested
him that another Indian killed a man.
This was all the information that
could be got from him on the subject
He was subjected to strict interro-
CATION this morning after he had be-
come sober, but he proved to be very
close mouthed, denying any knowl-
edge Of what had transpired during
the night-of where he got the whis-
ky or where he got the money to buy.
1t or who bought it for him.
