MURDER
DONE AT
FOSTER

A dispatch from Pendleton Monday
says:
Two men and two horses are dead as
the result of the mysterious burning Of
a boxcar in freight train on the hne
of the o. r. & n. near Foster, in this
county this morning at about Z o O'Clock.
One man was probably tramp and is
thought TO have been murdered by a
companion, while the other was mistak-
en- for the murderer and shot by a mem
ber of the sheriff = posse
The car that was burned was loaded
with household goods and two horses,
and left Fort Riley, Kan, May 6 for
Port Townsend, Wash, 1t was in charge
of Private William Wilson of the
Twenty>ffth battery. The contents of
the car were for Colonel s. w. Taylor
at Fort Town end.
According to the statement of Wilson
while he was currying one of the horses
he was kicked in the breast by the
animal. ami when he came 10 himself
the ear was on fire. He managed to
to turn the animals out, but both were
killed. He climbed Aver the ears to
the caboese, where he notified the train
men. The train was cut in two and
the burning car run onto the siding
at Foster.
In spite of the fact that Wilson says
he was alone in the car, the charred re
mains of man were found in one end.
while another man III citizens clothes
jumped off and ran across the country.
Around the body of the dead man was
found a great quantity of books and
papers
The officers of this city were notified
at once, and Deputy Sheriff Blakely and
Coroner Henderson left for the scene
on passing freight train. The soldier
was captured and taken into custody
at Umatilla, while a posse of three men
started after the other man.
Late in the afternoon the posse came
upon man near Pine City who an.
swered to the description Of tho fugi
tive. Three times he WAS commanded
TO hald, and when at the third com
nd, he reached for his hip pocket
as if to draw a gun, Otis Mccarthy OF
Echo. a member OF the posse, fred with
4
his shotgun. The charge of double-t
broke the suspects and entered his sdde
mortally wouDding him.
Thinking they had the right man th'
posse started with him on the return
to Echo, where the inquest was being
held. They arrived there about i
o clock tonight, but their victim hat
expired on the way. Before dying h'
gave the name of John Connolly, buI
no other information concerning hin
could be obtained, as he was too veal
TO talk. and there were no papers OF
any kind on his person When the body
reached Echo persons who say the maj
jump from the train positively declared
the dead man was not the right one.
The officers are convinced that fou
play was committed in the ear before
it was burned. but at 10 O'Clock thu
coroner's jury had not brought in 1
verdict. The soLdier is being held
while Deputy Sheriff Blakely and hi
