stopped.
Sweet has a ranch at Ahwahnee and
IS perfectly familiar with the country.
For some time he has been at Grub
Gulch. where he is interested in min
ing. He answers the description of the
-obber given by the driver of one Of
the looted stages. He has been under
suspicion ever since the robbery Of a
year ago and was closely questioned
by the Sheriffs Of this and Mariposa
counties regarding the year old crime
He would have been arrested for that
robbery but for the fact that he
claimed he could prove an anbi by his
mining partner. with whom he said he
was working at the mine at the time

distance in half. 50 that q man who is
as familiar with the country as Sweet
would have no trouble in getting TO his
home before the news could be con-
veyed 10 the Sheriffs at their respective
county seats.
Sweet was arrested at his home at
Grub Gulch by Sherins Jones and

was near the scene Of the robbery
His rife. Winchester which has seen
much use, very closely resembled the
gun carried by the robber Ed Skel-
ton. one Of the stage drivers who took
particular notice OF the weapon the
bandit carried. was shown the rife and
he unhesitatingly said that II was very
Ike the one which was pointed at him
by the highwayman. the only differ
ence being that the rife the robber had
showed more rust than the one taken
from Sweet. The suspect was taken TO
Wawona IN the hope that some OF the
oespoiled passengers might identify
him beyond a doubt, but up to the
present time no word has been re-
ceived by the local officers
