STRATEGY OF DETECTIVES.
Caused Break Between Trimmer and
Iondoner, Which Is Healed.

One of the interesting features of the
Indictment of A. W. Nelson of Bingham
Junction for the theft of $l06.oo0 from the
Utah National bank was the rec
onciliation of w. w. Trimmer, formerly
assistant cashier of the Utah National
bank. and Doc Londoner, who had
charge of the investigation of the rob-
berry. During the entire time that he
was connected with the case, from early
In January until the present time the
Pinkerton detective apparently has been
endeavoring, in some manner. to connect
former Vice President Adams and As
sistant Cashier Trimmer with the robbery
Day and night operatives under Mr.. Lon
doner's charge have Swallowed Mr.. Ad-
ans and Mr.. Trimmer. apparently In the
hope of connecting them with the rob-
berry. This policy is now declared to
have been a part of the strategy en-
ployed by the detectives in order that
the alleged real criminals might be de-
ceived.
Mr.. Trimmer was going south on Main
street near the Kenyon hotel yesterday
afternoon. He suddenly met Doc" Lon
doner face to face in front of the Ken
Won hotel. For four months the two had
not spoken to each other. When they
met on the street Mr.. Trimmer's right
hand went out to him.
The two men were friends again.

night. was deliberately brought about by
the burning of the bridge, whose alb
sence caused three deaths and resulted
in injury to over thirty people. II. J.

his subordinates establish a clear case of
train wrecking. Il is said that the bridge
was so located that fire could not have
been started by a passing engine: that
a train had passed two hours before the
wreck and that in the meanwhile a track
walker had found the bridge in good con-
dition. Two men are said TO have been
seen running away as the engine crashed
into the ditch. II is now declared that

a band of fifty men, who We're repulsed

One Rebel Caught.
One revolutionist was seriously wound

This idea is confirmed by the report

assembled there yesterday. They would
not allow him 20 leave the yards during
the day They had two large bundles of

Some excitement was caused here by
the fact that the local agent of the eX-
press company received a shipment of
several thousand dollars this morning.
This money was forwarded by the Mex

money was turned over to the Mexican
