Office to get his orders, but Eaton was
not there. lie went in search OF him,
and found him lying on the sidewalk
Supposlng Eaton had fallen in fit, he
called brakeman named Al. Johnson,
and they carried Eaton back to the sta
ton and summoned Dr. Bates, but the
latter pronounced him dead. Then it was
discovered that Eaton had been shot.
Brakeman Johnson testified that when
he was called by Conductor Cummings
he hastened over toward the hotel, and
while on his way he passed two men, one
| OF whom he recognized as Olsen, but the
other was mutiied up and he did not
| recognize him. They were going in a
northerly direction.
Brakeman L. w. Walling testified that
he heard pistol shot, and afterward saw
the body of Eaton at the station.
Mrs. s. G. Mastin, at whose house
Eaton had boarded. testified that he was
a native of Pennsylvania and "A years OF
age.
The jurors were John Kriner, w. l..
Wood, John Huehy, w. II. Bradshaw,
Matthew Clancey, Charles Harwood,
John Roland and John Jimmerson.
They rendered verdict to the effect that
the deceased came to his death from the
effects of pistol-shot wound inflicted by
Charles Dodge.
DoDGE's ANTECEDENTs.
Charles Dodge formerly lived in Sacra-
mento, where he was money lender.
AT one time he was in partnership with
w. ). Kendall on Fifth street. He was
always regarded as a somewhat erratic
person, but harmless in his way. He
had falling out with Kendall some five
years ago and went over into \ olo
County, where he engaged in running
harvesting machines, hay-baling, etc.
couple OF months ago Dodge came
over to Sacramento with some teams to
haul earth for the Y-street levee, and was
one of the leaders in the strike against
| the reduction in the price paid for haul
ing material from the pits to the levee.
He headed the delegation of strikers that
called at the RECoRD-UNIoN office to
make statement of their grievances,
and being a ready talker he acted as
| spokesman for the teamsters.
While not afraid of hard work, Dodge
was always figuring on ways for making
money more readily than by the slow
methods of common labor. He has a
ready flow OF language, and has done
considerable reading, but his education
has been very limited, hence the failure
OF his spasmodie efforts TO succeed as a
lecturerson Ingersollism and other isrIs.
While living here he was generally
popular, but was regarded as OF weak
timber mentally. That his eccentricties
has finally led him into serious trouble,
however, did not cause much surprise.
His father is a resident Of Missouri,
where he is said to be in good circum-
stances
Dodge was in Sacramento on Tuesday,
| having come here to secure a horse and
buggy stolen from him on Monday by
one Croft, who was arrested here. He
lett in the afternoon for Davisville.
