MURDER SUSPECT ARRESTED.
Two Men Charged With Killing James
Dean at Washington, la.

Washington, Ia, May 13.-Sheriff j.
w. Teeter of this county has captured
one of the two men supposed to be the
murderer of James Dean of this city.
John Thomas alias Balma (colored)
was brought to this city from the vi
cinity of Skunk river yesterday and
lodged in Jail. He says his name is
with that of one of the men wanted in
Bridgeport. Oklahoma, for the murder
of Dean. Dean and his friend. w. w.
Wilson, also of this place, worked for
a big contracting firm in Oklahoma on
railway construction. Wilson was a
| timekeeper and Dean was one of the
sub-contractors. One day several of
the negroes in camp got drunk and
quarreled with the head cook because
they were not getting everything they
wanted to eat. Two of the men We're
enraged at the head cook and deter
mined to kill him. In their haste they
| killed Dean. wilson of this place
talked with Dean before he died from
the wound Of a pistol shot. He told
who the guilty parties We're but it was
too late to capture them. They made
good their escape from camp. Dean
has two brothers residing in this city,
Martin and Michael. Since the death
of James on March 3Oth Martin has
been in Bridgeport looking after his
deceased brothers business. The de-
ceased brother was about forty and
single.
The capture of the supposed guilty
man caused quite a sensation in this
city yesterday. 1t seems remarkable
that the capture of the murderer should
have taken place so near the home Of
the murdered man when the affair hap
pened away down in Oklahoma. Sheriff

that two suspects We're walking this
way. He and his deputy, VIII Black,

men was seen so Mr.. Teeter sent his

him back for trial. The prisoner said
he would require requistion papers of
