Hartnett said that he had killed a rabbit that day. While the man stoutly denies that he had anything to do with, the killing of Miller, there are other circumstances against him besides those bearing upon the murder. About two weeks ago a couple of men, father and son i were driving in the vicinity of Great Bend. They met Logan in the road and asked him if he knew where they might find work. Logan is alleged to have replied that if they would drive to his brother-in-law's place about seventeen miles from' Great Bend they could find employment.

The name of Logan's brotherin-law was supposed to be Johnson. After driving in the direction indicated by Logan the men came across anoth-' er man who informed them that his name was Johnson and that he was the only one in that part of the country who bore that name. The men's suspicions were immediately aroused, but they camped for the night, Logan sleeping some distance from them. The next morning, however, Logan was gone. Later he was found by the men and forced to hand over to them a 38-caliber revolver which he carried.

The gun is now in. the possession of Sheriff Daily. The sheriff and the county attorney both returned to Great Bend last night. It is not known when Logan will be taken there. At the present time it would mean a lynching as the farmers in that vicinity are threatening in their attitude toward Logan.

Yesterday afternoon when the funeral of young Miller was held more than 2,000 persons attended it. It is certain that mob violence would result should Logan be returned to that part of the country. Logan's wife and two children reside at Ottawa, he says. Hutchinson News. We write Fire, Tornado Hail Insurance anywhere in Kansas.

Daily of Barton county, entangled the alleged murder in the net of the law to such an extent yester day that there is little hope he can clear himself of the charges against him. The game he work ed was to strip off the soles of his shoes before they were asked for by Sheriff Daily. The latter on his first visit to Hutchinson requested the suspected slayer of William Miller to turn over the shoes that they might beta ken to the scene of the murder and fitted into the foot tracks which were found there. Cul ver, or readily consented and gave his footwear to the sheriff. Yesterday afternoon Daily came to Hutchinson in company with County Attorney James W.

Clarke. The first ques tion asked by Logan was with reference to the shoes. Did you fit them into the tracks?" he queried. "Yes," replied the sheriff. And did they fit the tracks snugly?" "Yes," again replied Daily.

"Well, then, I'm not the man you want' I ripped off the dou ble soles of those shoes and that would make the shoe smaller than it was when I wore it on the day of the murder. You can find the soles in my-cell." The sheriff only smiled. "That is just what I have been trying to get you to say," he remarked. I knew you had fooled with those shoes and I didn't even try to find out if they would fit the tracks." Logan did not reply. He seemed to realize that there was little left in his favor.

The alleged murderer was "sweated" for at least three hours yesterday. His account of what he did on the day of the murder is as follows: LOGAN'S STORY "I came to Kansas from Colorado and finally reached Great Bend. This was Wednesday morning and when I left there I started to walk southeast. That night, after the moon had been up for a short time and I had lain down to sleep, I heard the sound of a team and wagon ap proaching. There were two men in the wagon and, as they reached near where I was, one of them said, "whoa," and then both jumped out of the wagon and cut across the country on a run.

That was the last I saw of them. "Now, I will tell you why I took the horses and the wagon. I was there alone and I feared if I were to leave the wagon and stock I would be arrested for stealing it. My tracks were there and it seemed to me that the only thing to do was to drive to some town and dispose of the stock. Of course I know that you do not believe me, but I swear that this is all I know about the murder of that young farmer."
