The most important information gained is perhaps the real name of the man call ing himself Thomas Hogan. He has ad mitted he is Harry Orchard. Further, he has admitted he was in the Coeur d'AIe nes until the time cf the trouble there in 1893. He was living in Burke and was a membsr of the Burke Miners' union. Sheriff Sutherland has identified him as one he saw several times in that section the past summer. Whether or not hi had tc;r. th:r: ?r'? ' n-vmr. :nce the year of the riots, is not known, but the fact that he was there last summer is h'ghly sign Scant, as it was thought he was undoubtedly conferring with some of his old associates. . Where he has been since has not yet been traced, but he came to Idaho from Salt Lake. ' He shipped his trunk to Cald well and then went to Hailey, following his trunk here later. The trunk was traced by means of the check. No. 270, 515.. HOCAN'S TRUNK Hogan has claimed that his trunk was sent here from Harrison, Idaho, but it is learned that it was checked from Salt Lake. It wis checked by George Alley, baggageman at the latter place. This was established by the number of the check. A DOUBLE MURDER AT lid (AMP Reddiiig. Cal., Jan. 6 Tom and John Prxe, pioneer miners, were murdered on their mining claim today. Tom, aged 60, left the cabin for the claim at 8 o'clock. When he failed to re turn to dinner, John, aged 64. went to the claim. He found his brother shot through the head and his body almost buried to the neck in a grave. John hastened home, told his wife of Tom's murder, and sent a man to notify the officers. John then went to the cabin. As he reached the threshold a shot rang out and he fell dead. A posse of 100 men is scouring the fpuntry. ' E ak AND 0 A S THE E1RST Telegram's Salem Bureau. Jan. 5 C. A. Johns and Robert Eakin are the first candidates to file their notice of intention to become candidates for state officers at the direct primary elecL'01 next April, with the Secretary of State. Both no tices were received by Secretary Dunbar yesterday. Mr. Johns gives notice that he will try for ths nomination "for Gover nor, and Judge Eakin will be a candidate for Supreme Judge. The interest of these two candidates will clash, if the Republican voters de ck's that Eastern Oragon is entitled to but one place on tho state ticket. It is not expected that both will win, and yet there is nothing to prevent them both be ing nominated, as the voters in Eastern Oregon can vote for both and it may turn out that both will have a plurality. ' The consensus of opinion is that the Multnomah Republicans will decide the matter as bstwoen Johns and Eakin by voting solid for one or ihe other.
