ARRESTED FOR ARSON.
Joyd's Packing House Fired
by an Incendiary ,
Tlio Old Adngo That Murder Will
out Fully Exemplified.
The terrible fire of two years ago
which consumed the valuable property
cnown as Boyd's Packing Housu , will
) o recalled by every reader who was
n the city at tho' time. The fire
> roko out on Sunday evening ,
ust us thu church .services *
n various parts of the town closed ,
'he distance from the centre of the
own , the softness of thu roads , and
ho lack of a good supply of water
o draw from when the
lopartment did reach the
pot , made the conflagration al
most n hopeless enemy to fight from
ho start. Thousands and thousands
jf people assembled at the spot , und
rom their stations on the hillsides and
iridge gazed with horror upon the
coining flames below , which inch by
nch crept over the fated
pot , destroying thu buildings and
.lieir contents to the value of
iviny thousands of dollars before
daybreak on the following morning.
Tlio lire was known to have started
nuler peculiar circumstances und these
seemed futcd never to bo explained.
No suspicion was held against
uiyono at the time of the
ire , but Mayor lioyd persistently
copt the mutter in view , nnd
W3 had u man engaged in looking for
.lie lirobugH. Yesterday , na a result of
search , u man was brought to Omaha
rom Mulvorn lov.'u , where ho was
captured on Friday last by u private
lutectivo. Deputy Marthal McCluru
went to Mulvern Sunday and re
turned with the ollicer uud suspected
criminal.
Other parties implicated in thomut-
cruru supposed to be in town and the
lolicu uro on tht'ir track. A woman
rras also arrested at Malvorn ,
who is supposed to know
something of importance in
the way of evidence ugninsb the guilty
parties.
The report that a reward had been
offered is not true , nnd the arrest al
ready made was the result of tlio work
of Mayor Uoyd's private detective.
ADDITIONAL I'AHTirULAKS.
Since writing the above it is
learned that the muno of the man ur-
rusted is Michael Kearney , and that
lie wai at the time of the tire , unil
lias been up to within six weeks ago ,
an employe ut Uoyd's now packing
house. Mr. lioyd h.id from the start
his suspicions that the lire
was tjio work of nn ineondiuiy ,
and that Kearney was impli
cated in the matter. He hu :
no proof however , and consequently
made no open movement. Six woukp
ago the man quit workJ > eing it wuulc :
seem afraid that he was suspected ,
und wont over to Mulvern , Iowa
and from there to Silver _ Creek , having
and brother-in-law rt'sid
ing u sister - -
ins. ' ut the latter place. To the brother
in-law , Mr. Whiting , ho confessot
that he was ono of three men hired ti
burn the establishment in which hi
was employed , and that the object o
thu crime was to conceal the theft o
large amounts of meat , which hat
boon systematically stolennndshippei
from time to time. Subsequent ! )
lyeurney had u quarrel with his rola
lives over some property nnd hat
them brought to Malvurn , whore n
lawsuit resulted nguinat him
The relatives , probably incensed a
him for thin , went to tin
Marshal of Matron ) ami told him o
Kearney's confession , upon which th
marshal telegraphed to Mr , Boyd fu
instructions. The latter suinnionet
to his aid Mr. E. A. McClure , who i
onn of the most reliable men on th
force , and acting nmlerhis ndvicu sen
McCluru to Malvcrn to nrrest am
brinij Kearney back to Omaha , wind
ho did , nrrivin1 , ' with the prisono
Sunday night. Detective Hazen wa
Bent to Silver Crock to sjcurothomai
nnd woman as witnesses and their ar
rival yesterday wai what gave the
whole thing away. They are hold
low as witnensui in the police court ,
where the case comes up , which will
> rob.illy bo to-day. The principal in
ho affair is supposed to bo nt present
n Sioux City , though ho has circu-
ated around considerably MIICO the
affair alluded to. Tlio other parties
are in this city nnd so closely sluvlowed
hat they cannot escape.

Away.
It wns n dull dny. The trains wore
nil on time nnd carried only the usual
[ tiota of ordinary passengers. The
nnd had sufliciontly dried up ti.pre -
ent mysterious disappearances. The
> olico station had only been orna-
ncntcd by two unadorned drunks ,
ach of whom hud paid his fines
ml gone his way rejoicing. Ho one
iad fallen off thu elevator , no one
tad committed suicide , and there
vasn't even n social scandal or a denii-
nondo sensation to help thu reporter
ut. In this dilemma ono of Tin : Bii !
ncn dropped into the oflico of acood-
utured justice of the peace nnd pro-
loundcd the usual question , "Is
liuro anything new ? "
"Not u thing , " said the disciple of

nd motioned the scribe to n scat.
'Not a thing to-day , " ho repented
nther lazily , as ho contentedly pulled
t his cigar , "except" ho nddcd
lower "I might give you a marriage
performed this morning. "
Small as the item was , the starved

, ook out his note-book for the names ,

"They are a young couple from

his right mind , however , und had tin

BOARDING HOUSE THIEVES
They go TlironRh n Nnmbsr of
Clothes and Got 86.
The practice of boarding house
keepers to leave lower doors open at
nil hours of day and night doubtless
furnishes many advantages in the way of
convonienco. That it also offers many
temptations to sneak thieves and
marauders of bolder purpose is , how
ever , a disadvantage which recent oc
currences have made conspicuous.
On Saturday night two men entered
a house occupied by Win. 13. Eees ,
and made a detour of the rooms. AH
of the available articles of clothing
they.could find were taken down staits
and carefully searched for money cr
stray valuables. From ono pair of
pants they extracted about § 0 in coin ,
but found nothing ohie. None of the
wearing apparel was taken away from
the homo , and it ia probable that the
thieves expected some particular haul ,
which they missed Latch keys for
boarding houses and a biz bull dog
are about the only protection from
such marauders.
Satisfactory.
