and stood talking with some gentle
man leaning sgsinat the counter. Di.
rectly the door opened and J. NJ. Kal.
Loeb entered and drawing a pistol, as
far as can lie learned, without & word
began firing Al DeYeung. The latter
ran through the gate Of the counter to
the desk inside, Kslloch firing at him
as he ran. On reaching the desk De-
Young turned face to fsce with his op.
uonent with pistol In his hsnIi, when
Kslloch, leaning over the counter, fred
again, the ball striking DeYoung in
the mouth. Kalloch then started for
the door and DeYoung raised his pls-
tol as II 10 fire, but strength failed him
for his pistol was not discharged, and
sinking backwards he fell on the floor.
The bystanders ran to his assistance,
but the ball had evidently pierced the
base of the brain, and in few minutes
h expired. As Kslloch ran out of the
door he wss seized by the citizens, and
at the same moment an officer came up
and took HIM IN charge and conducted
him to.the city prison, where he was
locked up. The news OF the murder
flew through the city like wind, and
in few moments the street in the vi
cinlty ol the Chronicle office was
crowded with people, eager 70 learn
the particulars of the affair. Police
men were st once stationed at the door
of the office 20 keep out the inquisltive
crowd, aud only personal friends
and reporters were admitted in
the office. M. II. DeYoung, brother
of the deceased, reclined on the louug
surrounded by friends, evidently over
come by the tragedy, but with dry eyes
and his voice calm. He was not pres
ent at the time of the shooting, having
left for home after dinner few minutes
later than Charles. Deceased lay on
his back on the floor, his face bearing
calm expression; his breast was dab
bed with blood and his eyes closed, as
is noticeable in cases of those dying
from the effects of shot wounds. Only
one wound was found on HE person,
although at least four shots were fired
by Kalloch, two having pierced the
glass door and PARTITION of the Office,
and the third lodging in the window
case.
After being confined to his cell Kali
loch refused to be interviewed. The
cause Of his action is supposed to be
attributable to the appearance of an
anonymous pamphlet OF some sixty
pages, which reflects on his father, and
reviews the Kallcch Boston scandal
and other matters of scanhalous na-
ture. Kalloch evidently considered
that Deloung WAS responsible for its
appearances.
