A. G. Meade Killed at West Liberty
in a Restaurant
HOldup.

The Rock Island police early this
morning were asked to be on the
lookout for a couple of men whose
descriptions were given and who were
wanted for the robbery of a restaur-
ant at West Liberty, Iowa, and the
killing of Arthur Meade. Apparently
the sought for parties did not come
this way, for the police did not locate
anyone answering either description
furnished.
The crime was committed about /
a. m. in Thomas McCarty's restaurant
near the depot at West Liberty Sew
eral men, among them the young man
who met death. were in the place
with the proprietor when a masked
man entered and commanded those
present to throw up their hands, EN-
phasizing the demand with a revol-
YER.
All hastily complied save Meade,
who evidently thought the matter a
joke and he kept his hands at his
side. The man walked up to him and
thrust the revolver against him and
repeated the order. Meade started to
push the weapon away and the rob
Der shot him. He staggered back of
the counter and sank in chair.
where he expired. The murderer went
on and took what money there was in
the place, amounting to 5000, and
escaped with a pal who was watching
outside.
There is considerable local interest
in the tragedy from the fact that il is
believed i'm some quarters that the
young man killed was formerly res
ident of Sears and attended the high
school in this city. The dispatches
state that he was about % years of
age and single and his initials were
A. c.. all of which corroborates the
theory. The young man killed was
clerking in a iewelry store. The Ar
thur Meade who formerly lived at
Sears was last heard of in Wisconsin,
but he at that time expected to leave
