HOLD-UPS
ARRESTED
Two
Men Captured Who Robbed the Mt. Idaho Stage
According
to a dispatch to the Spokesman-Review, Charles Frush is confined in the
Idaho County Jail charged with the perpetration of Tuesday night’s
stage robbery, and Sam Hurley is detained at Grangeville as an
accomplice. Their
examination will be held today and the officers say they undoubtedly
have the right men. A letter found by the sheriff’s posse near the scene of the
robbery, with other discarded letters from the mutilated mail sack, led
to the arrest of the men. The
letter bore the address of Frush and proved to be one sent to him the
day before by the Grangeville vigilance committee instructing him to
leave town.
