on the railroad. The third Indian, Billy Smith. was arrested at Cowley, nearly three miles this side Of the accident. His breath was heavily laden with whiskcy. and he was covered with blood. Later in the day, the other two Indians were taken into custody It is thought probable that the other In- dians might have all but finished Smart and then placed him on the track, hop ing that the train would remove the evidences of crime. The theory is also advanced that the Indians might have all been drunk, and that the others who were with Smart probably did not know that he was laid out so close to the track.
 The matter will be investigated to the very bottom.
 The dead Indian was a near relative of Tagish Charley.
 No blame attaches to anyone connect cd with the railroad.
