When Captain Powell entered the hotel the two men were just paying their bill and were about to leave the city. They had gotten deployment with the Columbian Casualty company, of this city, and were going to Illinois in the company’s interests. The two men arrived at the St Nicholas Monday, registered under the names of H. C. Barrison, Indianapolis, and Fred Reynolds. The Indianapolis police were notified of the arrest Thursday night and officers were sent here yesterday to take the men back. They spent the night in jail.
