s,:artIina DEVELOPMENTS.

SALEM, oregon, jan 13.-Startling
developments were promised today
when the prosecutors ONCE amour
ced that it is practically prepared to
present a strong case at the coming
trial of A. R. Cooley, accused OF MUIR
dering Thomas Van Pelt near Ghetto,
Curry county Oregon, on February
19, 1898.
At the time Of Cooley's arrest in
San Francisco a few weeks ago, tbs
impression was given that Van Pelt's
assassination was the result of local
feud, the victim having bsen preyi-
ously accused, though never brought
to trial, of completely in the murd er
OF AL Coolidge. said to be the repre-
sentative OF large fishing interests.
The fact was not brought out, how
ever, that powerful clique of rich
politicians were said to have bean
dominating the Curry county district
by reign OF terror, and that among
their motives was the termination OF
independent fishing, that they might
monopolize the industry themselves
Van Pelt was one OF the indepen
dents. and it was to this that the
supposed trouble between himself
and Coolidge was attributed.
That Cooley was employed by these
sams interests to remove Van Pelt
not in revenge for Coolidge's death
but because he was an obstacle in the
way of the plans of those for whom
| Coolidge had acted, it is said will be
charged at his trial. 1t is openly ad
mitted that many of the best known
and W ealthiest men in this part OF
4 the state will be brought into the
case as witnesses.
Cooley left Oregon shortly after
Van Pelt was killed He made his
home in San Francisco and was work
ing for brewery there when arrest
ed and returned here for trial. Al
though he had made no snort at con
cealment, detectives have bean seek
/ ing him ever since Van Pelt':
death.
