A policeman who had heard the two
shots fred in rapid succession ran to the
| spot and found Whalen dying on the side
walk, with bullet wound over his right
eye and another in the left shoulder. The
woman kneeling by the side of the dying
man, and when Hussey asked her who
shot him she told him that TUG Wilson"
who had just ran down the stairs leading
to the beer hall, was the murderer. A

and with Hussey went down into the beer
cellar. A girl who was standing near the
| door told them that the fugitive had passed
through the saloon into the back yard.
They went out there, and after short
search found Wilkinson sitting in an out
house with the blood trickling down his
! face from wound over his left eye. He
was taken into the saloon and searched,
but no weapon was found on him, and for
a time he refused to tell where he had put

only making his case worse by refusing to
give it up, he volunteered to show them
where he had put it before running into

An examination of it showed that only
two chambers were emptied, and the barrel
was all blood stained. In the meantime
some one had summoned a carriage and

to the Receiving Hospital. When that in
stitution was reached it was found that he

Wilkinson, who was considerably under

The woman and Max Thirschmidt, a waiter
living at 424 Sansome street, who saw the
shooting were also locked up as witnesses
A few minutes after Wilkinson was placed
in cell in the hole-in-t he-wall he fell
asleep, and did not wake up until reporter
called on him. He was still in maudlin
condition, and it was only with difficulty
that he could be kept awake until he told
his story, which was that he and Whalen

they had got into fight and he had killed
