George Anderson
Is Victim Of
Footpads.
I ellis in Dying
Of Attack
on Him.

George Anderson, secretary of the
Blacksmiths' Helpers Union, died at
the City and County Hospital Tues
day night from injuries received Sun
day morning in a fight with high
waymen at the corner of Twenty
second and Mission streets. The
theory of the police that Anderson
met with an accident has been dis
proved by the testimony Of his
friends An effort has been made
to conceal the true facts of the trag-
edy, but the fact that another bloody
crime has been added to the Grim
son record of the city cannot be
gainsaid
Anderson was found at 1 o'clock
Sunday morning in an excavation,
unconscious and bleeding from a
dozen wounds. He was unable to tell
the police then how he came by his
injuries, but subsequently, while in
the hospital and Just before he died.
he recovered his senses Briefly he
told how he had been attacked by
three men. They struck him from be-
hind with blackjack ana afterward
hurled his body into the pit. where It
was found.

Acting upon this statement, the po-
lice of the Mission district are making
careful investigation. The corner

The fact that Anderson's watch,

the police as a circumstance discredit-

likely. however, that Anderson had con-

at Goss, but missed. Goss seemed to lose his bravdo immediately and ran, not taking time to open the partition door between Gee Jim's and Jones' saloon, but ran through it, breaking it from its hinges, As he was running from Jones saloon Red" takes another shot, which was effective, it entering the small of the back, passed through the liver and lower lobe of the right lung, coming ou. through the right breast near the nipple. Goss ran from where he was shot to the corner occupied by Jud Rounseville, before he fell. He was carried into the the office of Dr. Melick where medical treat ment wa, administered him, thence to the Williams Hospital, where he now lies with, it is said, about one chance in one thousand of pulling through. Rcd" was inn mediately locked up but pend ing the result of Goss's injuries. Not much is known here of Goss only that he came in Sunday night from Grand Canyon, where he has been in the employ of Fred Harvey as driver, but was discharged Satur- day for getting drunk and making a rough house at the Fl Tovar bar. He first said his folks lived at 0sceola, Pa, and immediately de- nied it. Claims to be an ex-base- ball player as well as pugilist. At any rate his rating down the line" is that he is boose fighter of unknown capacity and a bad actor when under its influence. Be that as it may this shooting busi- ness is bad practice and should be stopped, especially in such cases as this, where gun has to sought to be used.

 Rev. E. c. Decker, who has been assigned to the Methodist church here the past two years, de- livered his last discourse here on last Sunday night.

This is regretted by all of Williams, as both himself and his estimable wife were liked by all. Mir. Decker was also a member of the Knights of Pythias lodge and on last Sunday night some IS or 20 Knights attended services in a body as a token of their esteem for him. Bro. Decker is a good man and in the right place, we wish him well and commend him to the people in whatever new field he may be sent.
 T. A. Coleman, better known as Dad" Coleman, was struck and seriously injured by trian No. 4 Monday at Supia MT. Coleman had accepted position with the Santa Fe as watchman at the tun- nel near Fairview and was on his road there to take the position. He had boarded a freight train here and at Supai he was to get out of the caboose and get in the engine so they could let him off at the tunnel. In alighting from the caboose, it seems he stepped di- rectly on the main line, not hear ing the approach of No. 4, and was hit by the cylinder of No As en- zine. He would have been run over only for the presence of mind of the engineer of the freight trian, who seeing his peril, jumped and succeeded in jerking him far enough out of the track to save him from being ground to pieces. He was sent to Los Angeles on No. 4 the

 MT. Andrew Miller went to Albu- querque Tuesday night to take a in the fair, also to meet his horses there. The horses, however, have had very bad layout on northern railroads and they had not yet left Denver Sunday it looks ike they would not make Albuquerque in time to be entered in any of tke races that meet. They are now enroute from Butte, Montana, where they have been since the Denver meeting. But they were very lucky, capturing several good moneys. It is to be regretted that they failed to make the Albuquer- que Fair as it looked like easy money for them
 Wednesday morning about 8:SO o'clock quite sensational shooting affray occurred on the streets of Williams, when James Ellsworth, better known as Red" shot and seriously wounded one Harry Goss.
