NO SIGNS OF THE DEAD

The searching party that has
been endeavoring to find the
bodies of Mrs. Jones and Mrs.
Campbell who were lost at the
breaking of Hobart dam have
returned to this city. No trace of
the two bodies was found. The
flood carried with it a vast amount
of snow and debris which has COM
pletely covered the remains.
During the week that they spent
in Little Valley over a foot of snow
fell which added to the STOW
alrea dy on the ground, absolutely
preventing the discovery of the
remains.
Messrs. Freeman, Chapel and
Sprague returned to this city,
while they left Mr.. Campbell and
Mr.. Fred Homestead to continue
the search. Since leaving the
valley another foot of snow has
been added and another storm is
in progress. 1t is tie general
belief of those who left the valley
Saturday that it is useless to con.
tinue the search until spring or
when the snow leaves that portion
of the Sierras.
Mr.. Jones, who was badly
injured at the time of The disaster,
is able to be on the street. He will
not lose the sight Of his eye as was
first supposed and his other injuries
are rapidly mending' BY the time
the snow leaves he will be able to
help direct the further search for
the missing women Carson Ap-

ing the killing of Ed. Hogle in
Sundays fight with the Indians.
The first report was that he fell at
the first fire. Another is that he
was killed by buck hiding
behind the captured squaw. The
story told to Deputy Sheriff
Critchley yesterday by Pascal, the
Piute trailer who was in the fight,
differs from both of these. Ac-
cording to Pascal's story. Hogle
walked up to an Indian. whom he
supposed to be dead. when the
Indian raised partly up and shot
Hogle throgh the heart with the
pistol taken from Cambron, one of
the murdered men. The Indian
had one of his arms shot off early
in the fight.
Captain Donnellys posse reached
Golconda Tuesday afternoon with
the body of Hogle and the captive
squaw and children. Coroner
Buckley of Golconda is holding the
inquest today.
Following is the Piute trailers
story of the fight:
I'VE took trail at 6 o'clock on

about nineteen in the party. We
