SLOAN
May Be Foul Play.
Isaac Sloan, a stranger in Ogden, died at the
city jail Saturday night. Patrolman Pender picked him up during the afternoon in an apparently intoxicated condition.
At the station he complained of a choking sensation about the throat and heart. When the clothing was searched
Sunday, morning papers in his possession indicated that his name was Sloan, although on some of the envelopes the
name is spelled "Sloon." A small memorandum book mentioned the name of Mrs. Eggleston of 3704 Humboldt
street, Denver. Owing to the fact that a bad bruise was found on the side of the man's face there is some
suspicion of foul play. It is said that he had been ejected from a barber's shop just before his arrest.
Fifteen dollars was found on his person. An inquest will be held Monday.
