Horse, Is Refused, but
Takes Him and Is
Arrested

A case Of unusual interest to horse.
men came up in the justice court this

for the arrest of Q. d. Crookham, a
California horseman, who arrived from

present season. Mr. Murray died last
fall, and the widow leased the horse
to Sam Castro for the season Of 1904
Later she notified her brother Mr.
Crookham, OF the terms OF the lease
and that gentleman, thinking that she
did not get the best terms possible
secured an order from her for the
horse, and arrived here last night Will
his attorney to secure possession OF
the animal.
This morning, Mr.. Crookham and
his attorney went to the fair grounds
and demanded possession Of the horse
When this was refused, 1t is alleged
they entered the stable by forcing
the door, and took possession of thu
animal, bringing him down town. Mr.
Castro at once came to the city, and
swore to a complaint charging tho
larceny Of the horse, valued at $4,000,
and Mr.. Crookham was formally ar
rested.
The gentleman was arraigned, and
the trial set for 10 a. m. tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the defendant was al.
lowed to go on his own recognlzance,
and the horse is In the hands of Con
stable Lewis, who has the horse quar-
tered at one Of the local livery barns,
pending the disposition OF the case.
The deputy district attorney, assisted
by Ford, Kaiser & Slater, appeared
for the state, while Carson & Adams
represented the defendant in the
case In court this morning. The indi-
cations are that a warm and long fight
for the possession OF the valuable ami.
NAL is on.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 26.-From all
that can be gathered at this hour, be.
tween 1S0 and 100 men are lying dead
in the headings and pasageways Of the
Harwick mine of the Allegheny Coal
Company, at Cheswlck, the result of
the terrific explosion yesterday. Cage
after cage has gone down into the
mine and come up again, but only one
miner of all those that went down to
work this morning has been brought
to the surface. The rescued man is
Adolph Guina, and he is still in a
semi-unconscious condition at the
temporary hospital, at the rude school
house on the hillside above the mine
In addition to the miners who we're
at work when the explosion occurred
1t is now believed by practically all
OF the party who have come up the
220-foot vertical shaft for warming
and a breathing spell that selwyn M.
Taylor, the Pittsburg mining engineer,
who plated the mine, and who was
the first TO reach the bottom after the
explosion happened, is also now
among the list Of dead. OF those In
the mine all are probably dead.
The Pitsburg police have been
called TO guard the mouth of the shaft
and restrain relatives and friends,
The inspectors announce, as a result
Of inspection this afternoon, there Is
no hope whatever of saving any Of the
entombed. They ordered the mine
brpttlced to keep the air pure. In
spector Bell, who returned from the
mine at noon, said the corpses were
wedged in a mass in the north shaft
