which the boys statement was expected to clear
up. He was discovered by reporter of
the Bulletin to-day, and his statement as
published is follows:-"About nine O'Clock Satur-
day morning gentleman drove up to the branch
office. at No. 96l Mission street. in coupe. and
called for messenger boy. 1t was my turn to so
out and went with him. did not know the gen.
tleman in the coupe. never having him before.
We drove to No. 2,3l4 Nineteenth
street. He told me to go into the house
and inquire for Mr.. Kalloch and tell him that lady
in q coupe wanted to see him. The door was opened
by boy. l delivered the message and the boy told
me that Mr.. Kalloch not in. The gentleman

Aours were. 1 told that he at his
Office from ten to twelve o'clock. We drove
from Mr.. Kallochs house along Mission street to
Fifth street. Before reaching Fifth street, Mr.. Dc

turned down Jessie street to the entrance to tho
Temple on that street. passing the buggy before
stopping. When We stopped MIR. De Young

other man. and in the at of picking

the coupe cautiously. it he anticipated something
wrong, peering sideways at the window of the
coupe. When he reached the coupe the shot
was fired. which so frightened me that l ran,
as fast as 1 could. back to the Office"
The boy had not read the accounts in
the papers of the impending difficulty between De
Young and Kalloch. He did not suspect at any time
during the ride that the person with him in the
coupe intended to do anybody any harm. DE Young
was cool. and there nothing about his person to
