This morning at o'clock Coroner Nell
son will hold an inquest at the county
morgue upon the remains of Harry
Hutchinson who was shot and killed
Sunday night, while attempting to es-
cape from a police officer, who had sur
prised Hutchinson, Herman Walters and
a pal in the act of breaking open the
safe in the offices of the Minneapolis
Stove company, in the old church at
Tenth avenue south and Fourth street.
Previous to the inquest a post-mortem
examination of the remains will be made.
The police are much interested in the af-
fair, as the inquest may develop whether
Hutchinson was shot by Policeman John
Thompson or by his pal" who escaped
Officer Thompson thinks that he fired in
the air, and as the escaping burglar fired
twice, simultaneously with him, Hutch
inson being between them, it is general
Iy thought that the third burglar shot his
partner.
Herman Walters, better known as
Harry Walters, waived examination when
arrsigned in the police court yesterday,
and was held to the grand jury. He will
be a witness at the inquest. If evidence
is adduced to prove the theory of the
police, the escaped burglar, if caught,
will have to face a far more serious
charge than burglary.
Harry Hutchinson, who was killed, Is
practically a stranger to the police, ex-
cept for his testimony recently In an
attempt to prove an alibi for Plouff, who,
with Patsy Dockerty and William Welch,
burglarized a Nicollet avenue meat mar
ket Hutchinson roomed at 402 Third
avenue south, which was headquarters
f6r6he trio. In the room the police found
many additional burglars tools.
Hutchinson's parents reside on the
South side. His father told the police
yesterday tha he believed his son to have
been led into the crimes by his COM
panions, as the boy had always behaved
himself in the past. Mr.. Hutchinson stat
power TO aid the police in Strengthening
matters out. Harry Hutchinson was only
twenty years of age, instead of twenty
seven as was stated. At the conclusion of
the inquest today the body will be turn
ed over to the family for burial
The police are energetically at work at
tempting to capture the third burglar,
who made good his escape. AS nearly
as can be learned he had bicycle in
the vicinity, and escaped on this Another
bicycle, which had been ridden by Hutch
inson, was found in the neighborhood. 1t
Is thought that the escaped burglar has
left city.
