Yeager, a vis itor from Spokane, Waah., had been robbed and murdered. Yeager checked out at a local hotel yesterday afternoon and has not lieen seen since. Late yester day a scrawled note was turned over to the police by a man who found It in the station here. The note said: "Jim,” we got Yeager this morning. He will never see Spokane again. He sure had a nice pile of money on him." As the handwriting in the note resembled Yeager’s hotel signa ture, the local Investigators were somewhat skeptical about a mur der theory. BY CANDIDATE E.
