from Rock Island and charged him
with being the man wanted. The 9th
cr strenuously denied that this was
his name. Well. YOU had better come
with us to the police station replied
the sergeant. and the suspect was inn

that his name was Miller and that he
was a mining man.

remarked. but you've got the wrong
man. The man in the picture had a
heavy black mustache, while the pris-
oner was smooth shaver. but there
was no doubt that they were the
same. He was further questioned by
the detectives. but could give no sat
isfactory account of his whereabouts.

Admits His Identity.

subsequently he was taken to the
chiefs office. There he ran Il gaunt-
let of searching questions. They prov
ed too much for him; he was unable
to keep up his denial. and finally he
admitted that he was Lyford, and the
man that was wanted. His downfall
he attributed to speculation on the
stock exchange. He kept losing and
losing until he found himself behind
with the county's funds, and then he
became fugitive. His life since
then, he said, had been one continual
round of worry. He was in con-
slant state of apprehension, fearing
every day that he would meet some
body who would recognize him. He
has wife and four children in Rock
Island, three daughters and a son.
The chief has had several CONVEX
sations with Lyford. but the latter
was always reticent regarding his
past history Sheriff Heider, of Rock
Island. has wired Chief Langley to
hold the prisoner and employ solicit
tor, while he would obtain from
Washington a warrant for his arrest
and detention. \ further telegram
stated that he was leaving for Vic
tora at once. In the meantime a war
rant to detain Lyford will be secured.
1t is not likely that the latter will
fight eXtradition, in fact it is under
stood that he has expressed himself
willing to return without giving any
trouble.
