to run into the sopen we'll and be
carried off by the underground

The preliminary examination of

ard during the past two weeks has
published the complete story lead
ing up to the arrest and also the
evidence taken at the preliminary
examination. The Standard con
tends that ten men were employed
IN collecting evidence on the case
under the direction of Detective
Coleman and that the warrant for
Carson S arrest was issued on April
9Th, charging him with arson in the
irst degree. Five days prior to
hat timesCarson had left the coun-
ry and:itlwas seven days of chas-
ng before the Fly hobs" finally
rot their man at Elkton, South Da-
,ota. The motive for setting fire
0 the mill has been shown in the
act that Carson got into an alterca-
ion with Mr.. Nichols some time
'rior to the fire, and EMr. Nichols
ave him the worst of the affair.
