Ed Otborne, of Meacham, Arrested for Complicity In Coyle' Crime, by Deputy Sheriff Turner Coyle Will Return Without Requisition Pa per. John Coyle, who forged tho name of Joseph Kennoy, the well known sheepman of Pilot Rock to a check for $135, and successfully passed It upon Mike urate, of this city, last Sunday night, has been arrested and Is now in custody in Spokane. An officer will leave Pendleton to night to bring Coylo to Uiis city. Coyle was arrested upon advices from Sheriff Taylor, and has signi fied his willingness to return without requisition papers. Coyle's crime was committed with the utmost coolness and daring. He spent Sunday night in this city, drinking and carousing, drawing $10 and $20 at a time, during the night, as Mr. Gratz refused to cash tho check in one payment About the tlmo the bank opened, Monday morning, ho disappeared, and for threo days has remained out of flight. John Coylo, as he Is known here, and who signed this name In his in dorsement or the check in question, also went under the name of John Ferry, and received mall under that name.

Coyle's Confederate Arrested. tM usDorne, wno resides near Meacham, and Is well known In thl3 city, Is now in tho county jail, charg ed with complicity in Coyle's forgery. Immediately after the fact was made known that the Kenney check was a forgery. Chief of Police Dlak ley began a most rigid search for a clue that might lead to the discovery of others connected with Coyle in his smooth crime. He worked diligently among Coyle's associates and friends for a trace of some knowledge If the affair and waa well rewarded for his work in finding that Ed Osborne, who resides near' Meacham station on the O. R. & N., knew something of value to the authorities. He immediately informed the sher iff's office of his discovery and Depu ty Sheriff Turner went to Meacham yesterday and arrested Osborne, whom ho found nt home, and return ed to this elty with his prisoner last nignt. Tho cherk was written on January 16. according to tho information ob tained by Chief Dlakloy, and an un successful nttempt to cash It was roado Saturday ovenlng, after busi ness hours; the Savings Bank declln Ing to pay tho money on It, as tho signature of Mr. Konnedy did not correspond with that on tho bank's UUUKH.

The corn croo In tho states of Kan sas and Nebraska was enormous last year, and tho low freight rate to tho West will enable farmers thoro to dispose of a crop which they feared would remain on their hands, as well as offering Western stockmen a good opportunity to supply any shortago in feed that might occur at very rea sonable prices.
