yesterday by Deputy Sheriff Floyd
Haviland, who spent five days in the
northeastern part of the state before
finally locating his man.
DOggett is confined in the county
Jail. He was closely questioned by the
officers and Attorney c. C. Gose today
but according to his story, Doggett
does not know anything about the
murder Of Mrs. Aldrich The day the
crime was committed Doggett was in
Walla Walla on a spree. The fact that
DOggett and Barnes made trip to that
section of country where Mrs Aldrich
was murdered, a few days before the
crime was committed, led the officers
to suspicion that he was implicated
in the murder. Doggett did not DENY
that he accompanied Barnes TO the
north fork of the Coppei but declares
that he only went on Barnes solicita-

Alleged Murderer Although Plainly Agated Sticks to Story that
He Talked With Mrs. Adrich in Wa|a WaIa
Last Monday Night

ton as Barnes stated he wanted to
buy some land in that vicinity ana
wanted DOggett to point it out to HIM.
After viewing the land Doggett and
Barnes returned to the Aldric.l ranch
Doggett declares that he knows moth
ing of the crime but he will be held in
Jail until his story is thoroughly sifteG.
He gave information concerning the
pickhandle, however which again
draws the belt of evidence a nOtcn
tighter around the unfortunate man
accused of the crime. He says that he
helped Barnes hitch the team to the
buggy on the fateful day on which he
was seen to take Mrs. Aldricil to her
death, he saw the pickhandle in the
buggy and asked Barnes what it was
doing there, what he wanted of it.
Barnes replied that it was a Waits
burg buggy and that the stick had
probably been thrown there by some
one WHO forgot to take it out. Leave
it alone" he said. This. combined with
the testimony of the man who sold
cumstance look bad for Barnes.

which the officers have thrown about
Ear7ea he still denied that he maze

herently declared that he had seen his
victim IN Walla Walla the Monday
following the murder and had talked
with her on the streets.

the news that Mrs. Barnes had been
found. was broken to him, although the
information failed to wiring a confess
sion from his lips.

drathly white and his hands worked
nervously. Aside from this, however, he
