DETECTIVES At SEA
ON MURDER MYSTERY
Little Chance of Conviction,
Even if Arrest Is Made,
They Say.

According to detectives of the police
department, who are seeking TO unra-
vel the mystery Of the shooting of c. j.
Van den Akker. the night watc Imam
who was killed by unknown assailants
early last Tuesday morning on the
lawn Of ". w. Armstrong; home at
1l77 East South Temple street, the
murderers may never be brought TO JUS
tice. Even if the right men be ar
rested, the detectives say. it would be
almost impossible to convict them of
the crime.
"There are few witnesses and they
would be practically useless, said De
tective George e. Cleveland. 1.-The
persons who saw two men running are
not able to even tell what the men
looked like, except 10 a general way.
If we succeeded in arresting the men
or man, we could only hope to induce
them to confess or one of them TO turn
state S evidence.
The entire detective department of
the police force has worked continually
on the case, and will not admit any spe-
cific clue, Although many persons
have offered suggestions to the off
GERS and these clues have been CAREFUL
ly followed up, the result of the work
so far is practically nothing.
Funeral services for Mr., Van den
Akker, the victim of the murderer s
bullet. will be held at 2;30 o'clock TO-
day at the Fourth ward chapel in Og
den. The body will be shippeH to Og
den this morning bv o 'Donnell e. Go.
Interment will be in the Ogden City

CITY DECIDES TO
SINK ANOTHER WELL

Decision to bore another well above the
old sump in Emigration canyon was
reached by Superintendent G. F Barrett
OF the waterworks department yesterday
afternoon following a second test OF the
second we'll, which is now about COM
plete.
The first two wells have proved sue
cessful enough 70 warrant continuance of
the operations in that vicinity and II is
believed plenty OF water remains TO be
tapped in the subterranean strata
Tho test OF the second we'll yesterday
was not as satisfactory as had been eX-
pected The water ran irregulary when
pumped, indicating that It was not Gow-
ing into the well fast enough. The first
well driven was entirely successful, about
800, 900 gallons daily flow being obtained
In spite of this fact the well driven at
point not more than fifteen feet from
the first we'll produced a smaller flow
and tapped n stratum entirely separate
from that which feds the first well.
