away, but was deterred by the advice of many who had gathered in safe places, they telling him it was almost certain death. He faltered only for an instant but went toward Burke with the people calling him to come away. Grasping Burke by the arm and the shoulder and watching Haynes, whose ratlfke eyes could be seen peering from the small window on the east side or the cabin, Cashel dragged Burke to where willing hands helped to lift him tenderly and place him in the patrol wagon.
 Accompanied by an eyewitness of the scene named Jack Waters, Cashel drove his horses at breakneck speed to the City and County Hospital. On the way the dying officer asked for a priest. Cashel left him in the physicians hands on the operating table and sent Officer Marlowe in buggy after Father Lyon of St. Peters parish The priest arrived in time to administer the rites of the church, given in ward A, to which Burke had been removed from the operating table. He died shortly afterward, about three -fourths of an hour from the time he received his wound.
 In the meantime the Chief of Police had been notified of the death of Lieu tenant Burke and sent Detectives Ryan, O'Dea, P. Sullivan, Graham, Reynolds, Silvey, Dinan and Dillon to the scene. Immediately afterward squad of rif1emen were hurried to the place of battle. Sergeant Baldwin was in charge, and along were Policemen Morris Duane, J. c. Edwards, Burner and Lewis Sergeant Chrstiansen hap pened to be at the Central Station, and he, too, went out in buggy.
 AS soon as the squad of rif1emen reached the war ground they found that hostilities had been renewed. The detectives were deployed round about the house in every sort of position con- ceivable and were shooting into the house, in which the murderous tinker was concealed, from all sides He was shooting as rapidly as he could from his position in the doorway. Not only did the man have two revolvers Of his own, but as soon as Lieutenant Burke had fallen he had walked out and se- cured the officers weapon, thus giving him three with which to shoot at his besiegers.

 Just as the rifle party arrived Ken nedy came back with the shotgun. After the first few shots of the squad were fired Kennedy got a good crack at Haynes head in the doorway and filled it with birdshot. Then it was that he was seen to drop to the floor and immediately afterward came out hold ing up his hands, in one of which was cIutched a revolver, and exclaimed: Don't shoot; I will surrender"
 Sergeant Christiansen, Edwards and Duane were then a few feet from the door and the sergeant yelled to the men not to shoot and then to Haynes to throw down his weapon. He might have done so, but just at this juncture some thoughtless officer on the hill fired another shot at the man and he immediately opened fire on Christian sen and the two officers with him, but missed, and they beat a precipitate re- treat. Haynes slipped back into the house, and the fusillade again began. In a short time Haynes again came to the door and holding up his hands shouted not to shoot, that he would surrender Sergeant Baldwin was at this time at the northwest corner of the Shanty with his rifle leveled on the murderer. He advanced, still keeping the man covered, and told him to throw away his revolver. Then he grabbed him just as Officer Duane and Detec- tive Ryan came up from the hillside and laid hands on him. Baldwin had the murderer dragged out of the door way by the time the other two were close enough to render assistance. He was then manacled and placed in the patrol wagon.
 Captain Gillin, who had arrived on the scene in time to direct the move ments of the detectives, together with Sergeant Baldwin and Detectives Rey- holds and Ryan, took the prisoner to the City and County Hospital in the patrol wagon. where his wounds were dressed It was found that one of the small birdshot had taken effect in his right arm and there were superficial flesh wounds on his left cheek, fore head and nose. He was taken from the hospital to the City Prison and book ed on a charge of murder. Attorney Eddy Sweeney has been retained to de- fend him.
