M and got back Sunday at $50 clock,
having been hunting at Timber Lake.
Saw Conway Sunday evening and pass
ed the time of day with HIM. Saw him
later in the evening and | asked him
whether he had heard of the murder.
He said, Eyes, but it wasn't me-" He
seemed to be uneasy. We argued the
point, and / stuck to it that it was
him. We walked toward the city hall,
where there were some officers, and he
said 'lets go back, | don't care to go
past there" We turned back toward
the Northwestern depot. We saw
Layne, and he seemed very anxious to
talk to Conway, but as [ remained
with him, he did not. L accused him
of doing the shooting, and he continu-
ed to deny it. Finally he said: Eyes,
George, [ did it. For Gods sake be
true, and don't say anything about
it," / told him / should say nothing
about it. [ had told him that the best
thing to do for him was to own up, and
not try to keep it still. His actions
and our previous talk about making
money made me think that Conway
had done the shooting. | told him
that it was no use in his telling me
that he did not do it, as / knew better.
He said he had to do what he did,
though he had not intended to. He
said if he had not done as he did,
Harry would have followed him and
caused his arrest. The next WedneS-
day he showed me his thumb, all
swollen up, and said Harry had hit
him with his cane on the hand. We
were then walking across the river.
We were afterwards working in a
cistern across the river, and his thumb
was sore and he couldn't work very
well, and he broke his bottle of lini-
ment. We worked parts of four days
on the cistern, he having the job and
hiring me. Layne came over with

Harry Walraven's brother and intro
duced him to Conway 1 was in the
cistern, and Conway on top. They
were there five minutes. I told Con-
way that that was queer thing do
do. He said, ''Layne has more sand
than [ have" Conway said that Wal
raven hit him hard blow on his
thumb, and showed me a mark on his
forehead, where he said Harry struck
him on the head so hard that it
knocked him on his knees. He said
he got up and thought the best thing
he could do was to make a sure thing
OF it. He said he took a good
aim and fired. | asked Conway
a good many times whether Layne
was there, and he always said that he
was alone. He told me that Layne
had planned the affair and had made
botch of it. Had it not been for
Layne nothing would have happened.
He said he didn't have time to get the
money; made a grab for it but heard
footsteps, and ran away, getting into
house occupied by A. H. Schwartz

ed down he got back to his
boarding place. The following Mon

ment building, where we were both
looking for work. We started to Lit
tie Jake's saloon and he asked me
where | lived, and as thought it was
none of his business | told him my
home was in California. After coming
out of the saloon we talked about the
hard times and scarcity OF work. He
said he would put me on to scheme
for us to make $500 or 800. [ asked
him what it was, and he said he was
not prepared to say, and l told him
that in that case | was not prepared
to answer. There were no other per-
sons about. We were sitting on some
beer kegs by the saloon. l saw Con-
was first on the previous Monday
night. He was in the American House
saloon, fighting. (The court ordered
this last struck out, on motion of the
defense) Had no conversation then
with him. After Tuesday, next met
him Wednesday evening at the Com
mercial House. He was walking with
John e. Layne, toward the hotel from
Front street. Had a talk with him at
the Commercial House about work and
the affairs of the town. Layne had
left him before | spoke with him.
Met him on Thursday forenoon, and
talked about work again. Saw him
with Layne good deal on different
days. Friday afternoon II went to

pressed some fears as to this some four
or six months before the occurrence,
naming person whom he was afraid
would hurt him.
Coroner Shoemaker was sworn and
testified to seeing the body on the
lawn. There was some moonlight,
but it was dark under the large shade
trees where the body was. He also
testified as to the inquest. There
was over 5000 in the pocket-books
taken from the body.
Geo. M. Phillips testified to hearing
a shot while sitting up with corpse
in the neighborhood, with several
other people. Went to Walraven's
ten minutes later, and found several
people there, about Harry's body. l
notified Coroner Shoemaker, and then

notified Mr. Conrod, who was tending
bar for Harry. The sheriff, Conrod
and [ visited Walraven's saloon and
found six men in an upper room.
Sheriff Glynn testified to seeing the
body lying on the lawn, having been
sitting up at some house with MI.
Phillips. Among the party up stairs
over the saloon, presumably playing
cards, there were no old men, nor any
under. age.
DIR. Warner testified to taking part
in a post norton examination OF the
remains of the deceased, and descrlb-
ed the wound made by the bullet. Inc
bullet entered q inches upward and
inward of the left nipple. The ball
went in nearly horizontal direction,
going slightly downward, passing be-
tween the ribs, and was found be-
tween the eleventh and twelfth ribs
and seven and a half inches from the
spinal column. The bullet was 80
calibre 1t passed through the base
of the heart, what is called the right
ventricle. Death from such a wound
would be very sudden. In examining
the body, nothing else was discovered
which would have caused death.
There was some burned powder marks
on the face. The clothing did not
have the appearance of having been
powder burned. BY the base OF the
heart, the upper portion is meant.
DR.. j. w. Andrews gave evidence of
similar purport. He had been called
shortly after the shooting and found
on examination that Walraven was
dead. Witness identified the bullet.
The wound would necessarily be
quickly fatal, and caused Walraven's
death. There were 15 or 20 powder
powder marks in the face, one on the
chin of considerable size. The line
taken by the ball was first inward and
upward, and changed afterwards, go
ing outward and downward. Am in
clined to think it struck rib and was
detected, though am not certain.
d. w. Bowen, eX-deputy sheriff, was
next called to the stand, and testified
to the care of the bullet, which was
left in his possession.
At this point the court took a re-
cess until this morning.
The first witness this morning was
Fred Boehmer, who testified to leaving
his place of business at about 12:4O
o'clock on the night in question.
After a conversation with a gentle
man, lasting ten minutes, | went
home, passing by Walraven's house.
When going along Broad street, be-
tween Fred KrOn's house and the
McBroom house, next south Of Wal
ravens residence, he heard whisper
ing back in the lot from the shade OF
the high stone wall between the lots.
The words he heard were: "Hold on, ;"
repeated twice in low voice. This
was about one o'clock. 1t was very

just rising walked lame that night.
1t seemed as though the sound came
from the rear end of the McBroom
property, in the direction of the stone
wall. The whispers did not sound as
though they came from a house. 1t
was mans voice.
Geo. Empey was next called to the
stand. Unusual attention was given
when he began to testify. Attorney
General Childs conducted the exami-
nation. He said he lived four and a
half miles west of Chatfield l have
not been there much, but my folks
have been there eight or nine years. ]

a rifle of the old models. Since then the

strongly to the theory that the wound
of a very small ball moving very swiftly

The question is an important one, and
