the man In question Is a Government
draughtsman in either the Treasury or
Navy Department Who the assailant
or his wife is, has not yet been dis
covered. but an arrest Is expected TO
be reported at headquarters soon.
The affair was one of the most auda-
eiOus AM cold blooded assaults with
which the police of this city have had
to deal for some time. and. although
the man who was assaulted refused Fri
day evening TO give the name OF his
enemy, Captain BOaTdman will try hard

Tie two men entered the tunnel Of

been seen or heard of them. A large
force Of men has been searching
throughout tie workings Of the Mickey
Breen mine, comprising the tunnel and
five levels leading from the tunnel. but
not the slightest trace has been found.
Far a time it was thought that the
men had been shut IN the mine by a
cavern on the second level. but the
cavern later turned out 10 be an old
one, and the men could not possibly
have gone behind 1t.
The mine is located in remote and
sparsely settled section, and, as both
men are strangers to the country, the
most likely theory is that they
emerged from the tunnel during a fog
and are now lost in the mountains.
Fresh footprints IN the snow above the

belief. Following Up this theory.
