FORT COLLINS TRAGEDY.
Robert Miller Resists Arrest and 10
Shot by City Marshal.

Denver. May IA News special
from Fort Collins last night says:
Robert Miller proprietor OF the City
BottlIng Works. while resisting arrest
was shot and instantly killed this aft
ernoon by City Marshal William NJ.
RIchart.
Mr.. Richart was given two warrants
this afternoon against Miller. one a
charge of selling liquor and the other
keeping disorderly house. Mr.. Rich
art asked Deputy Sheriff Whitaker
and Mike Meredith to accompany him
and assist In case of trouble. The
three entered the bottling works. on
North College avenue. shortly after 4
O'Clock. Richart stated his business
and inquired for Miller. Miller was In
rear room. and came to meet the
marshal The warrant for selling
liquor was read to him and accepted.
Miller then announced his intention OF
going with the marshal and securing
bail
Mr.. Richart, however. pulled a sec.
ond warrant out of his pocket, and told
Miller that he had another warrant
charging him with keeping a disor-
derly house. and that 1t was his duty
to search the place for liquor. Miller
refused to allow the search to proceed.
and stated that while willing to be ar
rested on the charge of selling liquor.
that his establishment should not be
searched.
Marshal Richart then started behind
the counter for the purpose OF secur-
ing bottles supposed to contain certain
liquor, and was struck in the face by
Miller with his fist. Richart drew his
revolver and said: Now. Mr.. Miller.
II am here as an officer, and as such 1t
is my duty to search this house, and
| will do so, but you must stop this
funny business as | want no trouble
Miller who, while an aged man. was
remarkably quick. seized beer bottle
and struck Richart across the brow. in
ncting a deep cash three inches long.
He struck at him second time, and
missed as Richart staggered back.
Miller reached under the counter and
the marshal. fearing that he was after
gun, pulled the trigger, the bullet
penetrating the heart.
Will Richart was recently elected
city marshal in remarkably hot cam
paign between the license and anti
license parties He ran independent of
either party, and was elected by vote
of three to one. He. has for several
years been deputy sheriff. and Is re
garded as one of the best officers the
county ever had. No one regrets the
shooting more than he.
Robert Miller came to Fort Collins
about twenty-five years ago. and has
for twenty years been in the bottlins
business. He made no secret of sell
ing liquor. and was fined several times
for the offense in the District Court.
About eight years ago he was con
victed of selling liquor and fined
81 200 by Judge Bouton. and the fine
was suspended during good behavior.
Fourteen indictments were recently
given against Miller, and the warrant
issued to-day leading to his arrest and
death was the result.
