The unhappy and respondent Fitz-

now seems was the direct cause of
his ending his life in such a horrible
manner. Had he not acted so hastily
and rashly. he might have recovered
the ring the day after Christmas and
been alive today, instead of resting
in the grave of a self-murderer.
Chief O'Neil has been working
faithfully on the case ever since the
suicide, endeavoring to locate the
ring that had so strangely disap-
peared within the brief period that
expired between the time Fitzpatrick
showed the ring to bartender at

that the missing ring might have had

AS stated yesterday by The Senti-
mel, IL is believed that the mans
name is Charles Starritt, this being
the address on letter that was dis
covered in the clothing of the fright
fully mangled and crushed man.
Today Undertaken Bannister wired
to the woman whose signature was
attached to the letter-"Ida l.. Smith,
Rural Route No. &c. Manzanola, Col
orado"-but up until a late hour this
afternoon no answer had been re-
ceived. The woman may live some
miles from the town of ManZanola,
which is about 10 miles from the city
of Pueblo. The letter was written in
a friendly spirit and indicates that
Starritt and the woman had been
interested together in a land deal,
and she was writing to him about
certain phases of the deal.
On the man person was n purse
containing no money; some keys, one
of which was a trunk key, and what
was evidently a laborer's work check
"a brass piece bearing this inscrip-
tion: &c. c. P.-226." The latter
may be a Central Colorado Power
Company's work check. and it may
be that Starritt was at one time EN-
ployed there.
The body has been prepared for
burial. The deceased was n man of
powerful build. and of fairly good APP
pearance. He had a mustache.
a telephone message to The Sen
tinel this afternoon from Montrose
stated that a man named Charles
Starritt is known in Gunnison coun-
ty having resided there for several
years. and that he was Il man of pow
erful physique. There is a probabil-
ity that the dead man and the Gun
nison county man are one and the
same.
II is hoped that the Smith woman
AT Manzanola, which is in the south
ern part of the state. can fully estab-
ish the dead mans identity.
