A story reached here last night OF
an ARRAY which occurred at Beowawe
shortly before noon Yesterday in
which a Greek was shot in the

named Kruuse. A reliable accom-,

assistant engineer in laying u
construction work, hal "a diIa
greement with Foreman Shea OF the
gang of Greeks employed In raising
the railroad track. What they quar-
relied about is unknown. but til, al
tercanon resulted in Krause taking ID
shot ut Shea. The bullet missed 1T
mark and struck one Of the Creek
laborers near the shoulder blade, pas.
sing through his body. There are
about sixty Greeks In the construc.
ton gang. and the shooting Of their
comrade reused their bloodtbirst,
natures to a desire for vengence.
The fiery descendants OF tile Spartan
fell "upon krause and Shea, over
powered them. and bound the TN
happy Teutonic engineer and Hiber-
