| Especial Telegram to the Globe
CHICAGO, Dec. 11.-At tho time OF the
shooting of Officer Patrick Nlulvahill By
the desperate, Bill Allen, the physicians in
| the case found half of the ball iInbedded in
the cavity over the left eye, and it was sup
posed they had removed all that had en-
tered the wound. In view OF this theory,
it was announced that the wound was not
dangerous and that the officer would soon
be able to SO on duty again. These hopes,
however, have been dispeiled by the con-
ditioa of Officer Mulvahi!! during the las:
two or three days. Instead of healing the
wound has continued to swell and grow
worse and the wounded man
has suffered intense paid. Yesterday
Drs. Lee and Tenger performed second
operation, and made the startling discog-
cry chat the skull was fractured Two
pieces of the splintered hall were found
Immediately back Of the eye bail, and two
pieces of bone we're extracted at the same
time. The condition of the wounded Off
Ger is very critical, and no one is permitted
to see Ii IN. He still retns conscious
ness, but slight hopes are now entertained
of his recovery.
The inquest on the body of Clarence E.
Wright, the Office killed by Bill Allen on
the night of Nov. %, developed nothing
new regarding the tragedy. The jury re-
turned a verdict in accordance with the
facts. At the inquest on the body
of Bill Allen, the verdict was that he came
to his death from gun shot wound at the
hands of Officers John Wheeler and John
Reid in the discharge of their duty, and
exonerated the officers from all blame.
William James, the car porter, who first
fell under blow from Allen, died at the
County hospital Saturday, from the effects
of Aliens blow.

FARGO, D. T., Dec. ia special from
Lisbon says that suspicion is daily growing
that the mason who worked on Aliens
house, and disappeared at the time of the
fire, is the person who set the building on
fire. No one here now believes Mrs. Allen
had anything to do with it. Those who
have invented the alleged incest case say
that the charges are entirely ungrounded.
The Fargo and Southwestern is expected
to reach Lisbon on Wednesday.
Another special from Valley City states
that WmS Glass, deputy register of deeds
of Griggs county, identified six Of the
eleven persons arrested charged with alb
