KILLED AN OFFICER.
o. G. BodIey. Santa Fe Detective at
Ottawa, Slain by Thieves.

Ottawa, Aug. go. G. Bodley, a
Santa Fe special officer, was shot about
o'clock this morning while attempt
ing to arrest two men who We're robbiEg
a box car and died within an hour
without being able to give an account
of the affair.
For some time past the railroad
company has suffered from the depre-
dations of thieves who have been
breaking seals on box cars which have
chants. Numerous attempts to appre-
hend them have proven unsuccessful
though extra men have been employed
for the purpose. Among the men en-
Bodley. the man who was killed last
night. He was about 40 years of age
and had been a night policeman at
Ottawa for several years and was en-
ployed by the Santa F'e on account of
his efficiency as an officer.
He was at the freight depot shortly
before 3 o'clock and heard the noise
made by the thieves as they gained
admission to the car and started for
the point indicated. There were sew
eral men about the depot at the time
and within few moments they heard
two shots hred and a cry Of pain from
the officer.
When they reached Bodley he was
barely conscious and all that could be
gained from him was that there were
two men in the car and they shot him
and ran, and before he could give
further description of them he Iapsed
into unconsciousness from which he
did not rally. One of the shots fred
had entered his left arm and the other
one which caused his death entered
the abdomen.
The car had been broken into and
one box taken from it which was left
in front of the car door and another
box of merchandise was in the car
door ready to be removed when the
thieves were surprised, and fired on the
officer. Before he was able to draw
his revolver and shoot the men had
leaped from the car and made their
escape in the darkness and there are
no clews to lead to their Identity
The matter was reported to H H.
German, chief of the Santa Fe special
city directing the work on the case,
ana hopes to make some arrests within
a short time
