SHOOTING WAS ACCIDENTAL.
WALTER SCHULTZ DID NOT AT.
TEMPT TO COMMIT SUICIDE.
WAS PREPARING TO GO HUNTING

Didn't Know the Revolver Was Loaded
But IL Went Of Just the Same-Bul.
let Plowed Down Left Side But Did
Not Penetrate Abdominal Cavity.
f, A. Schultz of Pierce, father of
Walter Schultz, the Northwestern
brakeman who 1t was reported at
tempted suicide at Chadron, returned
from Chadron Sunday, where he had
fastened as soon as word reached him
of the shooting. Mr.. Schultz Is very
Indignant over the newspaper reports
of the shooting, which he says was
purely accidental without thought of
suicide. He says the report Of the af-
fair sent out from Chadron was based
wholly upon rumor, hearsay and guess
work, and did not do his son Justice.
The report was gathered from the
street, not a single reporter coming
near the house where the young man
is boarding to get the real facts.
AS Mr.. Schultz explains the shoot
ing, Walter was getting ready to go
hunting with some companions and
concluded to take his revolver with
him. He took down the weapon, be-
lieving it was not loaded, and was
breaking" 1t when the gun went off
and the bullet penetrated his left side,
glancing on the second rib and travel
ing downward about three and half
inches but not penetrating the abdom-
inal cavity. The revolver was a 32-
calibre affair and Mr.. Schultz argues
that If it had pointed with suicidal eff
feet, the ball would have bored hole
clear through young Schultz's body.
Instead of that it only made a slight
flesh wound, and the doctor at Chadron
who is attending the young man said
that he would be able to be home for
Christmas. The accident happened at
the home of Guy Cooley, formerly of
Norfolk and brother-in-law of F. A.
Schultz. AS indicated by the course
of the bullet, Walter was holding the
revolver close to him and had just
thrown it down in breaking it, so that
the wound inflicted was comparatively
slight.
Mr.. Schultz left Chadron Saturday.
When he came away Walter was get
ting along fine and the doctor prom
Used that he might be in Pierce for
Christmas.

Geiger, customer from Beaufort S.

The men were closeted in ELEPHANTS
private Office at the time and all that
is known of what Immediately pre-
ceded the shooting was learned from
the lips of the dying broker. Oliphant
said that his refusal to extend further
credit to Geiger caused the tragedy,
There is reason to believe that Geiger
had become mentally irresponsible. A
note book found on his person con.
tanned computations by which the
writer apparently had figured that he
would be worth s3,0OOOOO by Jan. l,
1908. He actually possessed, so far as
his personal effects showed. less than
$11. Geiger owed the ELEPHANTS So
600 and had been asked for a settle.

after explaining that he could not
meet his obligation, asked that the
firm advance him sufficient credit to
carry 5000 shares of certain stock
until a rise in the price should yield
him profit His proposition was re.
FUSED and the shooting followed.

Jacobs Creek. Pa, Dec. 21.-From
the Darr mine of the Pittsburg Coal
company, where a terrific explosion
imprisoned and, almost beyond doubt,
killed every one of the two hundred
or more men who had entered the
mine for the day, only six bodies have
been brought to the surface. Others
have been located and lie in the entry
awaiting a propitious time for their
removal to the temporary morgue.
Most of them, however, are still
hemmed In by heavy falls of slate and
other roof formation, n mile and a half
and more beyond the point to which
the rescuers have penetrated up to
this time. There is still pickering
hope that some of them may yet be
living. but the disclosures of the In.
vestigations so far made leave little
basis for this hope.
Rescue work has been halted. A
vast amount of bratticing must be
done before 1t can proceed, the res.
cuing parties, $500 feet from the
main entrance, having found condi-
tons such that to avert an additional
disaster. precautionary work must be
done. The poisonous gases must be
forced from the sections beyond and
additional air and ventilation must be
provided for that section.
