The crime seemed to have lost itself in the sleety cold of the December midnight upon which it was committed. The trails were not blind -- there were simply no trails.
The circumstances baffled explanation -- a lone woman entering an empty taxicab; a run to a distant point in the city; the discovery of the woman's disappearance, and in her stead the sight of the dead body of a prominent society man -- that, and the further blind information that the suit-case which the woman had carried was the property of the man whose body was huddled horribly in the taxicab.

A Double Barreled Detective Story is a novel by Mark Twain, in which Sherlock Holmes finds himself in the American west.
At a mining camp in California, Fetlock Jones, a nephew of Sherlock Holmes, kills his master, a silver-miner, by blowing up his cabin. Since this occurs when Holmes happens to be visiting, he brings his skills to bear upon the case and arrives at logically worked conclusions that are proved to be abysmally wrong by an amateur detective with an extremely keen sense of smell, which he employs in solving the case.
This could be seen as yet another piece where Twain tries to prove that life does not quite follow logic. (From Wikipedia.)
