Central Operator Found Shot
Dead.
WELLESLEY, MASS, OFFICE
Had Made Effort to Get Police But Was
Too Weak to Answer When Chief
Responded-Medical Examiner
Says 1t Was Suicide.

Wellesley, Mass, June 20.-When
Wellesley telephone subscribers tried to
call the central Office Sunday night and
were unable to get any response the
police were notified and an investigation
early yesterday resulted in the finding
of the body of the night operator, PER-
ley Clark, dead on the floor Of the tel
ephone office with a bullet wound in
the head.
A revolver was lying at his side. Clark
was about twenty-five years old and
lived in Needham.
1t has been established by the police
that Parker made an effort to call the
police before he dropped to the floor and
died.
One of the telephone plugs was found
in position to call the police station.
Having made his connection, young Park
er was too weak to answer Chief Kings
ley when the latter answered the phone
1t was this call that caused an investi-
| cation to be made by the police, which
resulted in the discovery that the ope-
rator had bene shot.
| This circumstance the police believe
is mysterious. 1t had been the opera
| tors custom to call upon them when
ever he heard of anything wrong.
Patrolman Wright, sent to investigate
because it was believed that the phone
was out of order, found the operator
dead on the floor. There was no sigr
of the revolver at first and it was mo-
until DR.. G. N. Jones arrived that i
was known that the boy had been shot
The revolver was on the fat top desl
which was near the window and som
distance from where the body was found
When Patrolman Wright entered tn
Office Parker as lying on his back o.
the floor. His feet touched one of TIL
chairs at the switchboard, where he ha
| evidently made a last-effort to talk wit
the police.
DR.. Hodgdon of Dedham, the medica
examiner, says that Parker's death wa
due to accidental discharge of the re
volver. The weapon was found on tn
desk, partially covered by newspaper.
The drawer in which Parker kept hi
lunch was open as though he had start
! ed to eat when he was shot.
So mysterious are some of the circun
2 stances connected with the shooting tha
) Chief Kingsley has worked on it a
t day. He is not quite satisfied with I'll
accident theory. The police and Parl
er's friends are quite sure that he di
not commit suicide.
