"Sworn evidence has been brought

To this the War Office on Wednes-
day sent the following reply: -"We

ceived saysitictory assurances re-
specting the murder of our wounded

currence, and of your despatch of

INCRIMINATING EVIDENCE,
It was evident that the men who
had occupied that tent were the
murderers, and it was equally evi-
dent that it had been erected there
as the headquarters of raurder, for
FIs occupturts bad actually cut down
27 cotton trees so as to be enabled
to see at a great distance anyone
moving along the Dawson trail.
From this eerie they had seen the
three men approaching on that
Christmas morning, and had sallied
forth and murdered them). The
bodies were stripped and thrown in-
to a parte of the river where it was
open, disappearing under the ice, to
be discovered, ghastly and grim,
many months afterward, when the
spring floods began their revelations.
But the officers had not waited for
this evidence to take action. In the
abandoned tent was an ordinary
Yukon stove, but an alteration had
been made on it that singled it, out
from all others. .That stove had
been seen in the ,possession of two
men na.med O'Brien and Graves.
O'Brien had been in Dawson prison.
and had been a great deal up and.
doem the river about that time. He
was, arrested. at "ragish as 0. suspect,
and the Pace:gradually wove a net
of circumstantial evidence about him
tliat lacked ncithing to make it abso-
lutely complete. Artielee belonging
to the murdered men were- found on
him, and aletost every step of his
journeyings before reaching and after
leaving the scene of the crime was
traced. Before Decenaber .25, 1899,
he was penniless, begging his way.
After that date he was in possession
of a roll- of bills and a pouch of nug-
gets, one of them being so remark-
able as to be well known in Daweon,
and also knowe to haV» been in pos-
session of Clayson. Graves, the oth-
er man', seems' to have utterly van-
