He WINGED HIS MAN.
Postoffics Inspector Doran Shoots
E.E. MendenhaII.
ALLEGED INSULTS TO WIFE.

E. E. Mendenhall, who constructed
a few cement sidewalks in this city a
few years ago and is therefore quite
we'll known here, 1t is alleged, made
improper proposals to Mrs. G. l.. Do
ran, wife of the postoffice inspector,
and in consequence Doran took a few
shots at Mendenhali, one shot taking
effect.
The Trinidad Chronicle-News gives
the following account OF the shooting:
About o'clock this morning three
pistol shots were fired in rapid success
sion on the third floor of the Hotel
Coronado. A moment later a man
came rushing down the stairs and then
out into the street. He was joined by
a gentleman friend and the two walked
on up Commercial street,
The man who had made such hasty
exit from the hotel, jumping over a
scrub woman on the steps, and losing
his hat and handkerchief, was E. E.
Mendenhall, a cement sidewalk con-
tractor OF Ration.
Later he made his way to the Santa
Fe depot and boarded No. Z, the first
south-bound train.
The gun shots were heard out in the
street and soon a large crowd was at,
tracted to the hotel Officers were
summoned and FASTENED to the scene
of the shooting. They went up to
suite 126-12S, and there found C. l.,
Doran, the postoffice inspector, and
his wife. Both were very nervous and
greatly excited.
1t was Mr. Doran who had used the
gun, and, although his aim was inaccu.
rate, it would appear that he shot at
Mendenhall to kill
The latter had close call, one bull
let going through his coat sleeve and
breaking the skin on his arm.
Mr.. Doran was seen by a representa-
tive of the Chronicle-News but refused
to make a statement of the trouble.
1t is stated, however, that Menden-
hall has been making improper ad-
vances when Mr.. Doran was out of the
city on postal business. On several oc-
casions, it is said, the two were out
buggy riding together.
Mr.. Mendenhall comes to Trinidad

Russia's alleged action at New Chwang
graphs today that the occupation of
the forts at the mouth of the Lao river
was temporary and that the Russians
have now withdrawn. Official circles
at Pekin are mystified. Their subordi-

there is a disposition to question the
correctness of the author of yester-
days story, who is considered to be
one of the ablest and best informed
foreigners in China.
