The "testimony brotight out. however, that the Investigation was an unusual thing, for the law re nulres an examination of such concerns' affairs only once In two years. The last previous "examination occurred In June 107. Mr. Brlnkerhoffa testimony pointed out many weaknesses In 4ke operation of the Illinois department He admitted that where an Insurance company repre sents Itself as holding a certain sum In mortgages, no question is raised over tne value or tne security .guaranteeing any mortgage, so long as the Interest is paia on tne loan, it is only when fore closures are made that facta ars re vealed.

D. McLean the sheriff and . his deputies believe that they have the man who murdered Harry X-'Butterworth at St. Johns Tuesday night. The, man Is be ing sweated by tmi sheriff this after noon at Vancouver. Aside from this, the newest develop ment In the mysterious murder case is that Harry T. Butterworth was shad owed and followed by a man' who1 an swers the description Of the arreted suspect. Just before he was murdered. Information to this effect was given to unier or rouce josepn juiacx or st, Johns this morning by Kverett Bllieu, a n-y ear-old icnuoi ooy ox oi. jonna The boy says he saw the man watching Butterworth through the window, and later following him Into and out Of the moving picture snow, i . TWatohe Butterworth. Kverett Bilieu. or Ray Bllieu. as he Is commonly called, was standing, on the street tjc Butterwortb-'s Jewairy store Tuesday night selling tickets 'to the skating rink. He saw a man standing outside tne jeweiry store ana intently watching Butterworth through the win dow. Butterworth-was at. the time working at his table. Bnortiy arterwara . tne jeweler closed up his store, and coming oot went into tne moving picture Bnow, wnicn is a lew doors away. The man whc had been watching him immediately followed him In. A short time afterwards Butter worth came out again and started up the street toward his home. A few minutes later the strange man also come out. 4, Having no particular Interest in the stranger the boy paid no .farther atten tion to mm, ana wnen ne looKed around a minute or two Jater the man had dis appeared, i Ray Bilieu is'a little hazy In his ideas as to the time that elapsed be tween the emergence of Mr. Butter worth from the moving picture show and the reappearance of the strange man. At first he said it might have been 10 or 16' minutes he was not sure but afterwards he stated that Mr. Butterworth had got about a block down the street and was opposite the tailor shop when the man came out. If this is so. It would have given the stranger plenty of time to cut across lots and beat Butterworth to the tree beneath which the jeweler was held up and shot. Tells Straight story. The boy tells a verv straight story and Is able to give a good description of the man. He said that the fellow was about 5 feet, 8 or 9 Inches tall, wore a close-cronped mustache, dark clothes, shoes and a light colored hat, "sort of like a cowboy hat." This tallies very well with the de scription given by the chief of police's office at Vancouver of the man arrest ed there last night. This man has a light, close-cropped mustache, a light colored wide brimmed hat, dark clothes, Is about 6 feet, 8 Inches In height and when arrested had a revolver. This last circumstance, together with the fact that he tells various conflicting tales, can rive no aooit nocount of himself, and appears to think that he i Is wanted for some serious rrlma i make It appear extremely probable that he Is the same man who was seen by Everett Bilieu shadowing Harry But terworth a short time before the latter was snoi to death and robbed of a vaiuaoie aiamona ring.
