Witness Captured Who May Clear Heilig of Murder Charge.

Lowell Tribune. Albert Wiverly, of Cedar Lake, who was put under arrest with Jones and Heilig at the tirfie of the murder of John Mitch, and was afterwards turned loose by the failure of thtf grand jury to indict him, and ran away to keep from being a. state witness, was caught at the home of a sister in Momence, 111, last Saturday, while in hiding, and was brought back here and placed under SI,OOO bond, and will remain In jail until he goes before the court and jury in the Heilig case. After he escaped when the Jones trial was partly tried, and he was known to have skipped out, Jones went on the stand and swore that Heilig was not a party to the fight with Mitch, and that Wiverly kicked Mitch after he had been knocked down by Jones. That testimony would have nearly, If not quite, cleared Heilig, without a statement from Wiverly, and It is not known yet what he will swear to when placed on the stand, but it is quite certain he will not swear to anything to incriminate himself.
