For Little Money and Jewe|ry He Carried.
SheriffS Force at Work

Late Friday afternoon 7. 0. Dram,
a grader employed at the Grant camp
of the Billinos & Northern near Stan
ford was foully murdered, robbed and
the mutilated body carried to a rail
way cut on the north side of Willow
creek six miles from Stanford, where
it was discovered by Fred McGarl
and John Murphy, two graders, who
chanced to walk by the spot. They
went back to camp and gave notice
of their find and the body was iden-
titled as that of Dram.
Had Been in Hospital.
Dram had been in poor health and
several days ago went to the camp
hospital for treatment, DR.. Ross being
in charge He left the hospital at
Willow creek at four p. m. Friday, at
tired as usual and wearing a black
satin shirt Over his arm he carried
sweater. He wore a No. 10 gold
hunting case watch bearing mono
gram, gold chain, and had some
money on his person, the amount not
being known. When the body was
found all valuables had disappeared
except 81 40 and gold ring which,
as shown by the inscription, was pre-
sented to him by his father on Christ
mas, 1892 The black satin shirt had
also been taken, and the sweater was
rolled up around the neck in such a
way as to conceal the wounds there.
Dram had been hit several blows in
the forehead and there were knife
slashes and stabs on the temple. lefs
thigh, across the breast and five great
cuts across the throat. One stab was
near the heart Both wrists had been
slashed to the bone, severing the
arteries. The condition of the ground
indicated that the body had been car
rled to that spot from some nearby
point, and placed in the cut
Foul Murder.
1t was Immediately apparent that
this man had been brutally and foullv
murdered, the motive being robbery,
and the local authorities at once mott

tlons, took charge of the case and
held an inquest. The jurors were D.
Fitzgerald, E. D. Perkins, Raw w.
Miner, Ed Reed, S. Svable and T. 7.

mains and hearing such testimony as
