WATCH OF MURDERED MAN
FOUND UPON THE PRISONER,
Blood Spots on His Clothing Will Be
Analyzed--Arrest Made at Grand
Forks and Identification Established
on Return to Great Falls-Actual
Eye Witness to the Crime Lacking.

Spe,ial to The Journal. r
Great Falls. Mont, Feb. 25.--Sher-
1T Bonner has returned to Great Falls
from Grand Forks, N. D.. bringing
with him George Hlobika, alias Vajga,
accused of the murder of George Sed-
lacek on the trail leading from Sand
Coulee to Stockett on Feb. II.
Immediately upon his arrival the
prisoner was identified by Deputy
Sheriff Thompson as the man who was
last seen with the murdered man, and
in less than two hours later he was
further identified by Thomas, Heller
of Stockett and by Ed Frieder of Sand
Coulee.
The chain Of circumstantial evil
dence against Vajga has been greatly
strengthened and there Is now nothing
lacking but an actual eye witness to
place the moose about his neck.
Until his arrival In Great Falls
Hlobil1a denied absolutely to Sheriff
Bonner that he had ever been in Sand
Coulee altho he admitted having been
in Great Falls, but when Deputy Sher-
If Thompson stepped toward him he
at once recognized the officer and ad-
mitted that he had spent some time at
Sand Coulee and had known George
Sedlacek. '''' =.
On one Of the shirts worn by Hlobika
there are several large spots of blood
which will be analysed to determine
whether. or not they are Of human
blood. Sheriff Bonner also took from
the prisoner silver watch which has
been identified as the property of the
murdered man. -s ....! RI =.

The suit has been bitterly fought

must suffer the hardship of buying
