CARRYING the above equipment a
man giving the name of John Smith,
and claiming to hail from the gold min
Ing districts of Colorado, was arrested
yesterday shortly after noon in the
Lemly hotel at Chillicothe, by Sheriff
J. H. Cremer and Chief of Police John
W. Gray, of this city. A charge Of
carrying burglar tools was filed against
Smith this morning in Justice William
Berry's court He was arraigned and
bound over to await the action of the
grand jury at present in session.
Made Frequent Trips.
Smith has been stopping at the Lem
ly hotel in Chillicotne, for about
one week During this time he has
made trips from Chillicothe to Abba,
Lucas and other nearby towns. His
actions aroused suspicion and word
was sent to the officers in this city.
Yesterday afternoon Sheriff Cremer
Burlington No. 8 at 1:40. They had
received perfect descriptions of the
man wanted and as they stepped upon
the porch Of the hotel Smith was look
ing out of the window.
Recognizing their man the two Off
GERS stepped quickly inside. Smith
hastily started toward his own room,
which opened upon the Office. The
path to his room lead him close to the
outside office entrance. AS this door
swung open Smith was barred from
his own room and stepped back to al
low the officers to enter.
No Chance to Escape.
II guess you are the man we want"
said the sheriff and before he could
make a move to escape or at self de-
Tense Chief Gray had him securely
handcuffed. The time in making the
arrest lasted but three or four seconds.
Their man safely landed the officers
searched him and the room occupied
by him with the result that the en-
tire outfit listed above except the
money and some cartridges were
found in his overcoat lying or the bed.
Smith had evidently reen taken en-
tirely unawares. Had he succeeded in
reaching his room as the officers en-.
tered there might have been longer
and possibly a tragic story to tell for
his appearance is that of desper-
ate character who would not hesitate
at taking long chances to make good
his own freedom.
After the arrest the officers secured
farmers sled and drove across to
Kirkville station, returning to this city
with their prisoner about 1920
O'clock.
Admits Losing Drill.
Smith declared that he was a min
ing prospector and that he carried the
outfit found upon him for the purpose
of drilling into rock in the search for

President Theodore Roosevelt says
he will not try for 1t but will leave
the whole matter to congress,

the people. A poll of 1856 congress
men shows that there are 1853 OPP

In favor of It. 1t is now believed
there will be no action for four
years. President Roosevelt said
today: "There will be no Andy
Johnson business about this"
The Iowa delegation is evenly
divided, polling five to five. Hep
burn, Lacey, Hedge, Hull and Cou-
sins are opposed to revision and
Conner, Haugen, Thomas, Birdsall
and Smith favor II.
Congress was surprised today by
the introduction of bill by Hep

attracting much attention as it was
