SAMPLES Of
ORE Inflow SHIPPED
Collection Sold to Clevelander
Contains Specimens Stolen
in This City.

Establishing. the fact that Caleb A.
Inflow, convicted murderer, has a
strong mania for ore specimens, some
of the samples shipped by G. A. In
low TO A. f. Holden, a prominent col
lector Of Cleveland. O., have been iden.
titled as having been taken from this
city. They were identified yesterday
by DR.. James E. Talmagc of the Des.
eret museum, DR., Fred J. Pack OF the
University of Utah and C. A. Gibbs of
the Utah Fuel company
Mr.. Holden is said to have paid In
low 500 for the collection, which was
shipped to the Ohio city. Mr.. Holden
has since died and the collection lay
at the Cleveland depot for several
months, County Attorney /. e. Wiley
finally succeeded in getting the collec-
tlon shipped back to Bingham,
whence ii had been sent, and yester-
day, he. with the three geologists,
went to bingham to inspect the colec-
ton.
The collection was in four crates,
each of which was opened. Dr. A. l..
lnglesby of Bingham. who is also n
collector OF mineral specimens, helped
with the examination. A specimen
from Siberia was identified as one
which was stolen from the Deseret mu-
scum. Several of the specimens were
identified as having been taken from
various institutions.
1t is understood that the attorneys
for Inflow will ask that any further
identification be made only when one
of them are present, and will insist
that all specimens not identified be
turned over to them for Inflow. In this
case. there will be trouble with the
Holden estate. which will no doubt ask
for all the specimens on, the ground
that they were purchased by Mr., Hol-
den before his death

Storm Does No Damage.

Although there was considerable cleo
trlcity evidenced in the storm last night
there was no particular damage reported
up to a late hour except the tearing
down of some of the bunting on the
streets. From all appearances last night
the colors in the flags were showing no
inclination to run and the promise Of
those who decorated the streets that the
colors were fast seems to have been q
sincere one.
Officials of the Utah Light e Railway
company and also members of the fire
department reported early this morning
that they had no trouble on account OF
the storm.
