The cause of the fire is ‘unknown, ~ Thore was a little flurry caused yester- day by what would be startling news, in- if true, that the police had closed and gave chase, together with Mr. Hough, following the three men 300 yards, and exchanging several shots with them. Neither he nor Mr. Hough could identify the men, though Mr. Swan- son thought Snoddefly and Houck resembled two of them in general ap- pearance. The boy who drove -the ex- oss wagon, and who took Snodderly and Houok to Crescent Oity the day be- fore the burglary, also testified. At their request ho trotted the horses through the town pretty lively, Snodderly telling him that he dix'n't want the boys to see the trapping and hunting accontrements to eamp out, and steal their things, In defense it was explained that Suodderl, and Houck went out there to trap, fi-i and hunt, and that which they took with them was just for that purpose. In view of all these facts the two were promptly discharged.
