NOTHING new
in THE BEST ROBBERY CASE
SUSPECTS ARE HELD
At JAIL
UNTIL RETURN OF Mr.. BEST
FROM MINoT-PRELlMiN
MARY TOMORROW

No particularly new developments
transpired yesterday in the case of
Brown, Young and Lynch, the three
soldiers arrested as being connected
with the Best clothing robbery of
Sunday night
The preliminary hearing of the men
will not be had until the return of
Mr.. Best from Minot, which will prob
ably be tonight or tomorrow. Mean
while the soldiers are bling held at
the county jail.
1t is understood that the men were
closely questioned by Sheriff McGillis
yesterday morning and that each one
of them told a different story. How.
ever, that they were together in town
the night of the burglary is known
The young waitress who was given
the stick pin by one of the boys, was
present at the Investigation at the
Jail, she being separated from the
soldiers by being in an adjoining
room. However, the door between the
two rooms was left slightly ajar, and
the young woman recognized the three
as being the ones who were in the res
taurant that evening, and one of them
as being the giver of the stick pin
which was positively identified as be.
ing part of the stolen property by Mr..
Best.
1t is said there can be little doubt
but what the police have captured the
right parties. An effort was made to
induce the men to tell where they
had hidden the plumber, it is alleged
but this they would not do.
