Big BEND ELECTRlC.
new RAILWAY PROPOSED SkOR
CENTRAL WASHINGTON.
Washington Water Power Company of
Spokane Is Reported as Gotnq TO
Extend Line from Medical Lake
West-Lareest Stakeholder Investi.
eating Resources of Route.

Spokane, July 9.-Extension of the
Medical Lake line of the Washington
Water Power company into the Big
Bend country is a possibility, accord
ing to w. A. White of New York OF
the firm of w. A. & A. M. White,
brokers, who has been in the district
several days looking into the feast
bility of the proposition. Mr.. White
is n of the largest holders of stock
in the Washington Water Power com.
pany.
1t is understood from Mr.. Whites
remarks that in the event a line of
that character is seriously contem-
plated and plans are made for actual
work in that direction, the company
will endeavor to tempt immediate
earnings by carrying a transmission
line along with the railroad for the
purpose of supplying the small towns
with power, as well as individuals.
1t is also understood that the pres
ent Medical Lake line will be the bas-
is of the extension, and that it will
proceed from that point directly into
the Big Bend country.
Just how far the company proposed
to run, what towns it expected to
reach and how much and what part of
the big wheat country the Washington
Water Power company has it's eyes
upon Mr.. White would not say.
Davenport and the towns and coun-
try between there and Spokane are
the parts of the territory that are
most available and most easily reach
ed by an electric line, and would UNI
doubtedly be the first terminal of a
line of any consequence.
1t is not improbable that an effort
would be made to strike in between
the Central Washington and the Great
Northern, where a large area is left at
considerable distance from both rail
way lines.

FATAL TRAGEDY
IN SEATTLE

Seattle, Wash, July 11.-Murder in
the first degree will be the charge
against Chester Thompson 20 year old
son of Will Fl. Thompson of this city,
who shot Judge G. Meade Emory t.
death at his home Saturday night.
Sunday it was discovered that one bull
let from young Thompson's revolver
went clear through the body from left
to right, entering a few inches below
the armpit and perforating both lungs.
Judge Emory literally bled to death
from this wound, his physicians being
unable TO stop the hemorrhages, which
were both internal and external and
very severe. Judge Emory gave to his
former law partner, Daniel Kelleher,
a complete statement of the events
prior to the shooting.
Saturday evening about dinner time.
Chester Thompson called up my home
by telephone and talked to Charlotte
Wittlesey, my niece, with whom he
was desperately in love. He asked per
mission to call on Charlotte. She told
him she could not see him as she was
going out for the evening. Moreover.
she had told Chester she did not wish
his attentions. Some little time later
Chester again called up my home. This
time, at Charlotte's request. | an
swered the telephone and taxed with
the BOY. l told him that Charlotte did
not wish to him come to the house
again, nor did 1 wish him to continue
his attentions. He replied:
"'Oh, no., you do not want me to
come to see her, eh?"
This was in a tone of voice indicat.
ing bitter hostility to me. That ended
the conversation. An hour later Ches.
ter came running up the steps to our
house. He entered the hall, passing
Mr.. and Mrs. Keith, my wife and my.
self on the porch. Instantly l jumped
} to my feet and followed him. Then
r he turned and shot me down"
I 1t is clear when Thompson entered
4 the house of Judge Emory it was fol
the purpose of begging Charlotte Whit.
tlesey OF make up with him and posi-.
bly, to kill her and then himself if she
t refused. The plea of the defense will,
be insanity, based upon the mad infat.
7 uation of the accused youth for Char
lotte Whittlesey and aslo on his eccen
trio actions during the past two years
Mrs. Thompson, mother of the muir
e derer, is slowly dying, and any shoct
: would result in her immediate death
She scarcely notes the going and com
ing of her family. Life holds but an
d other month for her, and strenuous e
forts are being made to keep the new
y of Chester's crime from her. The sol
n was cratic, scarcely home for meals
k because he was a health food advocate
and his family are meat eaters, and be
cause he sought the solitude of tn
woods. For this reason Mrs. Thompson
Will not miss his absence.
