NELSON, THE VICTIM.
SH)T THROUGH HEART
hendress Refused to Open Safe When
the Robbers Demanded
Money-Murderer
Escaped.

Engineer W. IA. Nelson of thu Cairo
division of the Big Four railroad who
runs between Cairo and Mt. Carmel
received the tragic news Tuesday
that his brother-in.law had been muir
derad al Greencastle, Ind. The
funeral was held yesterday and Mr..
an Mrs. Nelson went to indianapolis
to attend the rites. A dispatch from
Greencastle gives the story of the
murder as follows.
Because he refused TO open the safe
for them. two men whose identity has
no. been learned tonight shot and In.
stantly killed Otis Hendress, night
station master for the Terre Haute,
Indianapolis and Eastern Traction
company The murderers escaped
ard are supposed to be headed west.
NJ one witnessed the murder but
siace the two strangers had been
seen about the traction station early
in the evening it is supposed they
tried to rob Hendress, and whel
threats failed deliberately killed the
traction eAhpGAe ne HlutdeF WAS
committed about II o'clock and per-
solis atflactsd TO the station by the
aHoCins found the body of the agent
with a bullet through his heart,
The men who are supposed TO have
committed the crime were seen about
tn station by several persons. They
are described as rough appearing and
10 one recognized them. They enter
60 thG station but did not rema n.
since several persons were about the
place
1t is believed that they returned
TO the office when the agent was
alone and demanded that he open the
safe and turn over the money. There
is nothing to indicate that Hendress
was given any chance TO escape or
defend himself. Apparently onl his re-
fu5al to turn over the cash ne was
shot down in cold blood, The rob-
BEES defeated their own purposes in
numbering the agent for the shots
were heard some distance away and
aroused the entire neighborhood.
