Orth Stein Believed To Be Insane.

Denver Tribune.
Itwould be much more satisfactory not to
say a word in the way of an opinion about
the recent fracas in Kansas City. in which
man lost his life at the hands of Orth Stein.
but the fact that Stein went to Kansas City
from Colorado and was for long time en-
ployed in Journalism here, would seem to
demand some remarks from the press of this
State. STEMS record in Colorado was bad
yet the young man had SO many admirable
qualities and seemed so penitent for his mis-
deeds that when his career
here ended with disgrace
full escapade at Pueblo the utmost sympathy
was expressed for him, and the press OF the
State treated him with a charity and gen.
crosby that redounded greatly to his credit
1t was believed then that Stein was
crazy-that his excuses had impaired
his reason, and that he was totally
irresponsible fol- any misdeeds he might be
guilty Of And when the news of the Kan
sas City tragedy reached Denver there was
expressed once more the general opinion
that Stein was as crazy man as ever ran at
large. His career seems to afford an exam
pile of what liquor and abandoned women
will do for young man. STEIN came of an
excellent family. and he was reared and edu-
Gated among religious and refining inhu-
ences. This is invariably the kind of q fell
low that liquor and lust most speedily and
most surely down; they rot his brain, his
body and his morals. With his brain burned
out his mind diseased, his moral nature
sloughing off, and his physique impaired by
excuses Orth Stein was bound by the mex
orable law of nature 10 do the fatal deed for
which he is now held as a murderer The
woman will swear him off. OF course, but
even if she were not inclined to do so, there
will be no difficulty, we surmiSe, in estab-
fishing the unfortunate young mans utter
responsibility.

Statement of tho Crime.


On Saturday morning last, June 9, Orth
II. Stein formerly of Lafayette, Ind, but
known at Kansas City as John Bell, shot
George Fredericks proprietor of the Theater
Conlique, in Kansas City. The causes lead
ing to the shooting grew ont of STEMS rela-
tions to woman named Matte Harten,
former mistress of Fredericks, who intro
duced Stein 10 her some three months ago.
From the statements of the parties it seems
that Bell had been intimate with the woman
for some time past, and he had spent the
previous evening with her in her room.
Fredericks had sent word over
to her to meet him at the
theater after the performance. She sent back
word that she didn't intend to do
it. Soon after Fredricks came over to her
room, ana seeing Bell in her company, he
began violent abuse OF the woman, telling
her she must choose between them then and
there Bell took the warike demonstrations
as meaning violence to him, and let Fred
ricks know he was armed. After some time
Fredricks assured Bell that he had no fight
to make on him, and an invitation to drink
was extended to him. The two men then
left the room, walked over to the Comique.
but Bell says they drank nothing, as he Bell1
had not taken drink throughout the entire
evening. When they had recrossed the
street, aud were about to go up the stairs
again the quarrel was recommended, and the
shot was fired. Bell said he believed Fred
ricks was about to shoot him from behind,
and that he acted in self-detense..

friends can say for him is that they believe
he honestly thought he was acting in self
defense.
Orth Stein is but twenty-five years of age.
He began literary work early in life, and was
city editor of the Lafayette (Ind.) Courier
before he was of age. He left that place to
accepta position on the Leadville Chronicle;
from there he went to Denver and thence to
this city, where he has been filling the posi-
ton of city editor of the Evening Star for
about eight months. Stein was regarded as
a newspaper writer of extraordinary ability,
especially for a man of his years.
In appearance he is rather tall, very slim
of stature, with an efeminate cast
of countenance. He wears no beard except
a slight black mpstache, and usually wears
eyeglasses 1t has been reported that he was
quick with revolver, but Stein himself de-
clares that this is the first blood on his skirts
Stein says that the name John Bell is merely
a nom de plume he adopted while in the
theatrical business out west, and when ne
came to Kansas City it stuck to him.
