BRILLIANT SEATTLE JURlST
SUCCUMBS TO WOUNDS IN
FliCTED By LOVE-CRAZED
SON OF WILL n. THOMPSON.

SEATTLE, July 9.-Judge Cor
don Meade Emory, who was shot
Saturday by young Chester Thomp-
son, died at 1880 this morning.
He leaves a wife and two small
children. 1t Is believed Thompson
was seeking to kill Charlotte Whit
tlesey, a niece Of Judge Emory,
with whom he was in love.
Judge Emory was shot at 9:15
Saturday night as he was sitting on
his veranda talking with his wife
and friends. Young Thompson,
who is a son of Will H. Thompson,
the we'll known Seattle attorney,
suddenly ran up the steps and into
the hall. Judge Emory, in surprise,
followed him.
Three shots were heard and the
guests rushed in to find Judge
Emory groaning on the floor with
a bullet through both lungs. He
was also wounded in the groin
Thompson dashed on up the stairs
into the nursery and barred the
door, threatening to kill the two
little children there If an attempt
was made to capture him.
He thus defied the police for two
hours until his father arrived and

That dances could be held at
Mantle park on Sunday afternoon
and evening providing a permit was
secured from the chief of police
was found to be untrue yesterday.
The Labor World Publishing com
pany secured permission from the
chief to hold a dance at Mantle
park yesterday afternoon in con-
nection with picnic arranged by
the company. Everything went
along as smoothly as the investi.
cation of the collapse of the How.
ard street bridge until several
police officers appeared on the
scene and informed the labor PEG.
Pile who were giving the picnic
that the dance would have to stop.
Acting Mayor Funk, when called
up and asked for the reason the
dance was closed, said that 1t would
make no difference who wanted to
give a dance as 1t would not be
allowed.
Consequently the acting mayor
is today persona no grata win

been considered strong labor
union man, and owing his present
position with politics to his union

In giving orders to stop the dance
Funk gave instructions contrary to

superior, just before he left for the
east. These instructions were

GETS A JOLT

Chief Of Police Waller will take
c. E. Balzer's special police star
away from him on account OF his
actions Sunday afternoon in con-
nection with the Mantle park trou-
bles about dancing.
Balzer is a city florist and one
Of those in charge of the beautify-
ing Of Mantle park. Along with his
other duties he is appointed a spe-
cial policeman to keep order. Prep
arations were made at the pavilion
yesterday for dancing and Balzer
failed to report the fact to the
chief Of police.
When Patrolman Tom Lister
went out there on complaint Of
residents in the vicinity, he found
things ready for dancing and left
orders that it should not be. Balzer
was there and Lister chided him
for not reporting to headquarters.
Balzer turned on the policeman and
told him to mind his own business.
The policemen maintain that Bal
ger is conducting two lemonade
stands at the park and as the dance
would attract a crowd he wanted
to see 1t go on.

OF SWANSON CON-
GERMS STARTS LITTLE RUN
THAT TURNED OUT TO BE A
JOKE.

A financial furry waged for a
short time this morning around the
doors of the Farmers & Mechanics
bank on North Monroe street. For
a few moments the business men
Of North Monroe, having been
alarmed by the publication of an
alleged connection between the
bank and a fiscal institution at
Cheney, which suspended payment
on Saturday, felt that they should
withdraw their deposits before 1t
became too late.
One business man asked for his
deposit of about $500. He was
asked if he could wait a moment.
Following him another man took
$500 away. Then $150,000 came in,
for the management Of the bank
had foreseen the effect of the
Cheney allegation and had prepared
for it as soon as specie was avail
able this morning.
The $500 deposit man TOOK his
money and went away. Monroe
street business men were anxious,
but they were not panicky. The
$500 man did likewise. Small de-
positors flocked in and all were
paid. The $500 and the $500 were
returned shortly after being with
drawn.
After a while, A. NJ. Austin, feed
merchant Of the North Side, came
in and made a deposit.
In very short time all the large
withdrawals were back in the bank.
Business men of North Monroe
seemed satisfied and even If they
had not been, 1t is stated, the bank
would have paid every draft on its
treasury at 1890 o'clock, because
the institution has ample securities

bank denies any connection with,
or responsibility, for the Farmers
& Merchants bank at Cheney.

UNION DANCE STOPPED
BY POLICE YESTERDAY

There must be no more public
dances in the city for personal
gain, but when conducted under
the management of some lodge or
organization it will not be
molested.
Following these instructions
from Daggett, Chief Waller issued
permit on Saturday to the Cen
trail Labor Union and the dancing
was we'll under way when Sergeant
McPhee, Detectives Weir and Mac
donald arrived and stopped it.
This actions of the socalled union
man, Funk, has caused unionists to
openly charge Funk with being a
tool in the hands Of the Washing
ton Water Power company.
j. 4. Conner, an employe Of the
city, openly charges Funk with be-
ing a personal representative of
the Washington Water Power com
pany. Conner owes his job to
Funk's influence, and on account of
his bold assertion will in all prob
ability lose 1t.
A campaign started among union
men this morning to force the clos
ing of the attractions at Natatorium
park owned by the Washington
Water Power company. They say
the roller skating rink runs there
at full btst on Sundays and is
much mofe noisy than the dancing
held at Mantle park. Efforts will
be made to stop this and all other
Sunday amusements out there.
