A COLD.BLOODED MURDER.
William Baxter Mortally Wounded by
w. w. Hastings.

w. w. Hastings.
idaho Avalanche. Sept. aol
On Monday morning last at about
1870 o'clock, w. w. Hastings shot, at
the Morning Star mine, William Bax-
ter, Of which wounds he died about
twelve o'clock noon. An inquest and
post mortem examination was held
when the following facts were elicit
ed: On the morning above named
Joseph Glynn and the deceased start
ed from the Idaho Hotel together for
the Morning Star mine, on the north
hillside above town. When they had
crossed the bridge on the stage road,
Glynn proceeded to the mine, while
Baxter went to the residence of w.
H. Townsend. Glynn went to the
mine alone and stood on the dump
near the old shaft. He was joined
in short time by Townsend and
Baxter. When Townsend came on
the dump he made the remark to the
two workmcn who were standing near
him Baxter holding pick and shovel
in his handy that it was too cold to
work on the dump, and that they had
better 60 in the tunnel to work. When
this was said the attention of the men
was attracted by voice on the hill
side above them, saying, "Are you
working men or fighting mem"
Townsend Immediately replied, 1--WE
are working men; don't shoot, Bill"
w. w. Hastings had a gun to his
shoulder, or breast, at the time they
first saw him. Just before ne shot he
said, "Iou are here, you son-of-a- bitch.
Get off," AT the report of the gun
Baxter fell. Townsend says that
Hastings was leaning over large
rock when he shot. Mr.. Hastings came
down to where Baxter was lying and
said if he thought he was
not dead he would shoot him again.
Townsend asked him what he did
that for, before he left the rock, and
Hastings replied that he meant to
do it. When he came down he
made the remark that he could kill
Townsend if he wanted to, but did
not want to do it. He then turned
up Bakers coat and said to Townsend
"Look at this pistol" He then told
Townsend, "You can carry the carcass
Off" Townsend and Hastings then
came to town when Hastings surrend-
cred to Justice Hunt. Baxter was
brought to town where all was done
for him that could be by DIR. Shelf
fert, and passed quietly away. He
knew that he was going to die and
made dying declaration. After his
death an inquest and post mortem was
held, when it was learned that he had
fourteen wounds on his body. On
Tuesday the last remains of William
Baxter were followed to the grave by
a large number of our citizens. Com
ment upon the shooting and killing is
unnecessary. Mr.. Hastings is now
having preliminary examination be-
fore Justice Hunt. When the evil
dence is all in we will give it to the
public, substantially as it comes from
the witnesses, and they can then form
their own conclusions.
