The man who murdered W. A. S. Vermilion In his drug store West Second South street. In Salt Lake City, on the night of August 22, is believed to he In custody in Montana.

The arrest was the culmination of a long chase conducted by a Salt Lake newspaper man, and was begun on a few slender clues which The Tribune and Dr. P. G. P. Attlas, a friend of tho murdered man, considered worthy of investigation.

Trailing Down Suspect, Frank Mulock, the newspaper man In question, left Salt Lake City on August 26, knowing: that a man named Stevens had from time to time secured money from Vermilion's drug store, and had left the city suddenly after the murder. He had nevpr seen Stevens, but had a good description of the suspect. Found in Montana, Mulock followed his quarry to Ogdcn and learned that ho had shipped out from an employment agency thcro to Pocatelloj Thence he was traced through northern Idaho and to Warrick, in northern Montana, where- he was taken Into custody on the charge of theft. How Clue- "Was Obtained. Tho information which first directed attention toward Stevens was derived by Mulock from John Donovan, a railroad laborer.

They became acquainted In a First South street lodging-house, ond Donovan learned that Mulock occasionally wrote on space for The Tribune. Thinking- to be of service to his friend, Donovan told Mulock the second day after the murder, or suicide, as it was then called, of Vermilion, of the suspicious conduct of Stevens. In brief, Donovan said that he had been Intimate with Stevens for several days. From time to time Stevens had appeared with small sums of money and told Donovan that the cash had been given to him by his friend Vermilion, a druggist whom ho had known at school in California, One day he wore a pair of new shoes when he met Donovan. He told Donovan that the footwear had been given to him by Vermilion.

Intended Making a Touch, un ine mgnc or me niuraer, saia Donovan, Stevens told him early In the evening that ho was going down to Vermilion's store to make a touch. It was agreed that they should meet at tho Dooly block corner. Donovan was at the meeting place from 10:30 until 11 o'clock. Stevens did not come ond Donovan went to bed. He met Stevens In the Black Hills saloon next morning about 7 o'clock.

Stevens displayed $3 In silver and Donovan suggested that he buy a drink. "Wanted to Leave Town, "I can't do It," said Stevens. "I havo only tills money and I must get out of town. I think I will go to Ogden tonight." At the time of this convocation Donovan observod that Stevens had a' brulso on his face and a scratch on his hand, Stevens bought a paper bofore the men separated, and Donovan noted that he cut out the story of the Vorr-mlllon case. Followed the Cluo.

On receiving this statement from Donovan Mulock communicated ills information to The Tribune. Judge Vermilion, tho father of tho dead man, and Dr. Attlas, his friend, were Informed of the discovery and, while no ono at tho otore remembered having seen a man of Stevens's description, it was thought worth whllo to follow tho cluo to an end In the hope that corroborative evidence might be forthcoming-. Information. From Dead.

Judge Vermilion made inquiries and learned from hie son's aunt, with whom he boarded, t.hat tho dead man had, on one occasion, casually mentioned a meeting with a fellow who claimed to have known him In California, although he did not remember tho fellow. Picking Up Threads of Cluo. Mulock went to Ogden, and, assisted "by The Tribune correspondent at that place, mado the rounda of tho -employ-, Helped Murder lea ai Viefalor ioe Deported Colorado Miner Confessea-to tho Dynamito Plots at Inde- pendence, Colo.

Ho gavo tho names of tho men who wero with him and told In detail how the work was done. Connected With Concealed Wire. Romaln said tho dynamito was laid under tho depot platform at Independence.

The run was unusually light and did not be-gln until July 4. ment agencies, picking up the threads of the clue In that manner. A strong point ascertained by Mulock waa that Stevens, in looking for work, had shown great anxiety, to get out of the country. He had also sold his new shoes, shoes which corresponded to tho tracks found after tho murder, for a small sum and purchased old ones. Stevens also, while Intoxicated Informed a book agent at Ogden tthat he had made the mistake of his life In Salt Lake City.

Worked on Sheep Hanch, At Ogden It was learned Stevens had received employment on a sheep ranch near Pocatello and hastening- thither the Salt Lake man found that his man had left that place, it is alleged, after borrowing a small sum of money from- his employer. Stevens was next heard from at Blackfoot, where he found employment herding sheep in Custer county. Chase Sensational One. The chase after Stevens has been a sensational one, the Salt Lake sleuth at times being- hut one day behind him. During his flight Stevens engaged in love-making to a maid on a ranch between Blackfoot and Mackay, and nit? uuii uuu.

ul uitr winuii nc iJifiix- lsed to wed led the Irato father to engage the Blackfoot constable to help run down the fugitive. Deserted His Fiancee, On September 3 he disappeared, deserting his fiancee of but a few days' acquaintance. At Idaho Falls it was learned! that Stevens had left there for Montana and with the newspaper man but a day behind him, Stevens reached Warrick, where he sought work upon a sheep ranch. Constable Love of that place placed Stevens under arrest upon the charge of theft of a saddle and hrldle from a Blackfoot rancher until his Identity could be definitely determined. Admitted His Name.

Stovens at first 'stoutly insisted that his namo was Charles Hawthorne, hut finally admitted' under rigorous sweating of the officer that his true name was Stevens, and, It Is alleged, that he had iheen in Salt Lake on the night Vermilion was murdered. StevenB will consent to roturn to Salt Lake without extradition papers. The prisoner is reported to have confessed to having killed Vermilion. Constable Love and his prisoner aro on their way to Great Falls, where he will take a train to Butte, thenco to Blackfoot, Ida. The larceny charge agalii6t Stovon9 will not be pushed! and tho suspect will be turned over to the Utah authorities.

Yesterday evening Mr. Emery wired thc Sheriff of Silver Bow county, nt Butte, to hold 'the man' until he can bo sent for.
