Clara Fitch left home Wednesday evening, saying she was coirg t the ' homeof alriead,' Miee SuthetU'd, aud would be back soon. Mre. Fitch onder stool that site was coins: over to eee Benha Sutherland, one of ber friend, and paid little attention to the matter. Some friends were yrailing the Fitches, and ia company with tutu Mr. Fitch went out for the evening. She noticed opon ber retarn that Clara had not re taroed, and decided thai she had con cluded to spend the night with the Sutb erlands. Early neil tuornicg Mrs. Fitch bad to gj to Vancouver. She sent one of the children over to the Sutherland borne to - tell Clara to hurry home. Mrs. Fitch ' did not wait for the child to retarn. When ehe got back from Vancouver and learned that Clara had not spent tbe night with Bertha Sutherland, she be cams g-eatly alarmed, and at once, notified tbe police. - OTcn.Tnxnt sas The officers followed different does, but wiUiia an hoar or so all arrived at the conclueioa that UcDaniele was tbe murderer. They tried to find him, bnt 44 not succeed until S :15 o'clock, when Cordaoo and VYeieertook him into cus tody. The two had been looking for bin at the bonaeof bis employer, Mr. Morns, of 543 East Oak street, and had him sighted at C o'clock, but be bad been given a tip, and bad not takea bis team to tire baro, bad changed his clothes, and had., ridden off on Lis wheel. r. :lz ' : About 8 a'clock, while the detctirea " were opsulrt.yoaaj McDaalel came in to the house, and rasbed opeUirs, where the detectives met him, and toJ him be was wanted. "I know whit you want with me," be aid, "but I am not guilty." lie then ; dropped into a chair and said ha was reedy to go with them. mcdajtckl'b story. McPaniel admits to the detect! ves be ing with the murdered girl on Wednes day night, and says they were in Cycle ; " Talk until 9 or 13 o'clock; when be took her within two blocks of ber home, and left ber, as be was not allowed to go to the' txmee. Her parents bad forbade Lin gauig there, aad tbey bad been meeting clandestinely. ' 'He declares he knew nothing of her being miasing or dead until shortly be fore 8 o'clock, when crossing tbe Morri son st rest bridge on a wheel he beard three boys say a dead girl had been found oa-the East aid. He dismounted from his wheel and inquired who she . , was, and was told that it waa Clara Fitch. He eaya be then rushed to hi boardiog-plac, aod was met by the de tectives. THE ACCUSED Frank MeDaniel came here from Call foruia about one year ago. For the past - four months be haa been in the employ of the Moras & Wakefield Transfer Com pany. His lamer lives in ban la Barbara Cal , to which place he moved eome time ' ' ago from Illinois. ; A witsees has been found a ho says that MeDaniel had recently been uneasy a"bout Clara Fitch's condition, aod other . - witnesses have been found who have more or lean damaging testimony. Up on all this is founded the theory tba rank MeDaniel accompanied Claret Fitcb to the park, and that whatever may have occurred while they were alone, ho left hfer dead when he depart ed. MeDaniel teils a straight story about his going there with the girl, and cod ing away with her, and the closest ques- Honing, and si! the "sweating" that can be dorie haa failed to canee hi.n to change this ftory, or to become tangled in rotelling it. lie is root, and while apparently ap- pareriating his po-ition, does not t how any rigns of fear or nervoutritF, and do?e not change color when the dead gin's name ia mentioned, lie ia a.ti 1 to be an intelligent young fellow, and one who does not lock anything like a mur derer. THE MtRDEKKD UUO.. Clara Fitch wis the daughter of Mr. and Mre. G orge A. Fitch. She iived at home with her pareuu, and has alaay been looked opon as a well-behaved fcirl. For some time young MeDaniel has paid ber attention, but her parents decided be was not a proper person to associate with their daughter, aud forbade him ooming to their home. ' George A. Fitcb ia an engineer, in the employ ol the Southern Pacific Corn, pany. lis left here on his run before his daughter left borne, and knew noth ing of the matter uatil he was tele graphed to at Leland yesterday after noon. He was told to come home, but was not advised of his daughter's death until be ar lived at 8 o'clock this morning. Mrs. Fitcb haa been prostrated ' ever since she dlocovered that her daughter waa missing, and for that reason waa not notified if tbe girl's death before li e ar rival of Mr. Fitch. - THE DOCTOSS EXAMINATION.
