Doubt AS to Whether Shooting Was
Accidental or Intended.

White River Junction, June Al. M.
Duffer Of Montpelier an insurance agent,
was shot while passing through this place
last night as a passenger on the Passump-
sic way freight train, and it is feared he
will die from his injuries. DIR j. :.
Allen Is under arresst as the one who did
the shooting. The bullet crashed through
the car window, shattered the upper jaw
bone, split the tongue and upper lip and
just grazed the neck of the conductor who
was passing.
The local officers began an investiga-
tion into the circumstances attending the
shooting early this morning and at noon
time IL was learned that they bad discov-
cred evidence which was thought TO bear
out the claim of the trainmep. An exam
ination of the car showed that the bullet
hole in the curtain was on level with
that in the window, as II deliberate aim
had been taken. The curtain was pulled
down before Duffer took his seat and il
remained in the same position today. 1t
is stated however In view OF the acci-
dental theory that the curtain being
pulled down no one could be seen in the
car and at the time be shot. Duffer was
speaking at the time To the conductor.
DIR. Allen has obtained considerable
prominence in IA mix-up with a bar room

After a Long Illness.
Has Been for Thirty Years
Master of Steamer Newport.
One OF the Best Known and Most
Highly Esteemed Men in State.

The flags on the many steamers in this
harbor and at Newport are at half-mast
today out Of respect to the memory OF
the late Capt. George IL. Kelley Of New
port, who died at his homo this morning
st o'clock from "a complication of dis
eases. Capt. Kelley was with ono excep-
ton, the senior employe of the Providence
Fall River and Newport Steamboat Com
pany, and has been for more than so years
master OF the steamer City Of Newport
AS near AS can be learned ho began
teamboating on small crafts owned by
the Narragansett Brick Company early
In tho 40s, after which he was on the
steamer Argus, owned by Capt. Winslow
OF Newport and was afterward on the
steamer Canonicus with Capt. Allen. It
was this steamer that took the delegates
from Providence and Newport to the ded-
ication at Block Island in 1856.
lie was also on the steamer Perry which
was purchased by the American Steam
boat Company, which was afterward the
Continental Steamboat Company and now
the Providence Fall River and Newport

the Perry at the time and was later placed
In charge OF the steamer, City of Newport
and remained In command until he was
taken i'll last December. He held at the
tins of his death the oldest license in
these waters.
Captain Kelley for more than 20 years
has carried the governors-elect of Rhode
Island TO Newporr, and until few days
before that commencing this year he
thought that he would be able to be on
board the old Getty" and at least take
seat In the pilou house, and have it to
say that he had performed the pleasant
duty once more. Captain Taylor, his sue
cessor. did all that was possible to cheer
the old veteran on, but the disease had
so far worked upon the body and mind of
Mr. Kelley that the project was given up.
The many patrons of the line will miss
Captain Kelley, who, during his long SER
vice has carried hundreds of thou
sands of passengers and not one life has
been lost SO far as Is known.
