fact, by all workers.

ATTEMPTED
ROBBERY
RESULTS IN ONE DEATH

About five O'Clock Monday
morning, while the bartender,
Andy Montana, sat dosing in a
chair, F. B. CARMEL. who had
been employed at the Santa Fe
round house, entered the saloon
of w G. Kelly and attemped to
rob the cash register. A small
hammer that was in the back of
the drawer fell to the floor the
noise of which awakened Mon
tano who attempted to arise but
the would-be robber jumped at
him and tried to fell him with the
hammer. Montana proved to
be too active and secured his re-
volver which lay on the shelf un-
der the bar, shooting CARMEL IN
the head, the ball passing thru
and out at the back, causing ms
tant death.
From evidence brought out at
the inquest as we'll as the prelim-
inarv examination of Montana
it was shown that CARMEL had
been in Winslow but a few weeks
and had only secured employ
ment with the Santa Fe com
mencing May 1st. On Sunday
evening he failed to report for
duty at the usual hour, but went
to the round house shortly before
midnight when it was noticed by
those who knew him that he was
wearing a false beard and mus
tache When questioned IN re-
gard to this 1t is alleged he stated
he was out to have a good time
and Ito get some easy money"
After leaving the round house he
visited various saloons around
down trying to get a bottle of
whiskev, but as he was not
known to the bartenders, and be-
ing without funds, the liquor was
denied him. 1t was also stated
at the inquest that he had re-
marked to one of the bartenders
that che woald get some money
before the night was over This
statement seems to have been
freely made by the dead man dur
ing the evening previous to the
attempted robbery. AS we'll as
wearing false whiskers, CARMEL
had ON a pair of tennis shoes
when shot, and as Sunday night
had been unusually stormy to-
ward the midnight hour, rain
having fallen for several hours,
it is claimed that he was prepar-
ed TO get money somewhere, even
If necessary to rob some one.

Stabbing ARRAY

In fit of jealous rage, owing
to the attention paid by one
Asiano Romero, a Mexican, to
Viola Williams, colored, a deni-
zen of the tenderloin district, Ar
thur Daniels, also colored, stab
bed, and probably fatally wound
ed, Romero in a Mexican saloon
late last Sunday evening. 1t ap-
pears that these two men have
each been paying attention to
the same woman for some time
past and bad blood has sprung
up between them, which, accord
ing to others of the red light dis
trict, was in danger of causing
trouble at any time. Sunday
evening the men met in the sa-
loon of Rubi and, after a
wordy wraugle, fighting started.
1t was during the fight that Dan
iels drew the knife and stabbed
Romero, the blade entering un-
der the left shoulder and pene-
trating the left lung Romero,
after being stabbed, made his
way to the Wigwam restaurant
where his condition was first
noted and a patron of the place
called in DR.. c. L. Hathaway.
The doctor, after a hurried ex-
animation, had the man taken
to the hospital where a more
thorough examination was made
and the seriousness of the wound
disclosed.
Later = Romero's condition
seems to be improving and unless
further complications arise, the
physicians claim that he will re-
cover.
Daniels was given a prelimin-
ary examination before Justice
Zuck at Holbrook Wednesday
afternoon and bound over to
await the action of the grand
jury.
One Frank Cozene, a witness
for the defendant at the hearing,
sought fit to disobey the sub
poena issued and is now doing a
little time at the county jail for
contempt of court.
The Winslow mail. (Winslow, Ariz.) 1893-1926, 1908-05-09

Owing to the absence ofJustice
Finn, who is in San Francisco,
it was necessary to call on Jus-
tice F. M. Zuck, of Holbrook, to
act as coroner and hold the IN
quest. Justice Zuck arrived on
No. 7 and Immediately impaneled
the following jury; Messrs. Parr,
Hoxie, Chisholm, Prade,
Drumm, Waite, Chilson, Bazell,
and Walcott.
After taking all the testimony
available and thoroughly exam
lining the witnesses the verdict
OF the jury was that the deceased
came to his death on account of
a bullet wound inflicted by A.
Montana; that the latter was
acting IN defense Of his life and
property and is to beexonerated
from any and all blame.
Undertaken Parr immediately
took charge of the remains and
had them taken to the morgue
where they are held while an at
tempt is being made to discover
something further regarding the
dead man. SO far it has not
been possible to communicate
with any of his relatives nor To-
cate his former abode. At the
time OF his death he was wearing
a suit bearing a label of a we'll
known clothing firm of Los An
geles, but inquiry at that point
tails to reveal any knowledge of
the mans Identity
Monday afternoon Montana
was brought before the justice
court for a preliminary trial on
the charge OF murder, but was
promptly discharged the evidence
III the case going to show that
he had acted in self defense as
well as defending the property of
his employer.
Montana bears an excellent
reputation, has always conduct
ed himself as an upright citizen
and feels keenly the notoriery in
cident to the shooting. We con-
gratulate him on his courage and
feel that if similar rigorous mea-
sures were taken bv others, that
there would be less "holding-up"
throughout this country.
