SLEUTH AND HIMSELF
Notorious Crook and Morphine Fiend
Ends His Life After InVelaIlng
Policeman to Probable
Death
tBy Associated Press.I

SAN JOSE, Nov. 2O.-Shot twice
through the abdomen by notorious ex-
convict, two-termer, and morphine
fiend, after being inveigled to a dive in
a disreputable section of the city. Ray
w. Starbird, one of the most efficient
police officers In the city and a spe-
cial detective on the police force, lies
at Belvedere hospital tonight in pre-
carious condition.
The body of his assailant lies at the
morgue as the result of his taking his
own life In his cell at the city prison
by hanging. His name is George Bal
lard.
About p. m. Starbird went to Bal
lard's house to recover some goods
which Ballard had confessed to steal
ing. Starbird and Ballard entered the
house, which was very dark, and Bal
lard picked up two reVolvers and fired
The ofTicer wrestled with the man
and during the fracas Ballard was
wounded slightly in the leg.
Starbird oyerpowered the man, but
not until he had fired another bullet
into the officers abdomen.
Starbird, wounded as he was, dragged

couple of the tiny ventilating holes in
the ceiling. He had afterward jumped
from the bed and hung himself. He
was dead within twenty-five minutes
after being placed in the cell.

STATE CONCLUDES IN
TRIAL OF LAMPHERE
TWO IMPORTANT POINTS ARE
EMPHASIZED
Defense Declares Mrs. Guinness Still
Is Alive and That Teeth Found
In Embers Are Not
Hers

LAPORTE, Ind, Nov. 20.-The state
rested today in the trial of Ray Lam
phere, who is accused of the murder of
Mrs. Belle Guinness and her three chill
dren by setting fire to her house.
Prosecution concluded after the defense
had finished the croSs-eXamination or
Deputy Sheriff Anstiss.
The deputy sheriff testified to admis-
sions alleged to have been made by
Lamphere following his arrest.
The state lays great stress on two
points in the testimony of Anstiss.
First, on his statement that Lamphere
had said he would not deny having
seen Mrs. Guinness kill Helgelein, and
second, Anstiss' statement that Lam
phere would not take the stand.
Lamphere's lawyers now find that
unless their client takes the stand the
admission said to have been made by
him to Anstiss cannot be controverted.
Attorney Worden made his opening
statement for the defense. He said he
would prove that it was not Mrs. Gum
ness body which was found in the
ruins of the house; that Mrs. Guinness
had been seen in July by nelghbor
and by two girls; that the dental work
identified as having been placed by DR..
Norton in the mouth of Mrs. Guinness
could not have gone through the fire,
and that the four persons whose bodies
were found in the ruins of the fire died
of poisoning.
Mr.. Worden said: "Our evidence will
show that Mrs. Guinness is still alive.
She had a motive in setting fire to the
house, and our evidence will show that
Mrs. Guinness knew that certain people
suspected her of having committed
many crimes. She was asked questions
at a trial in Stillwell when she had
Lamphere arrested for trespass. She
knew that inquiry would be made re-
garding these things.
'I believe the evidence will show'that
on April 81 there was a certain crisis in
her life-she was expecting Helgelein
here to investigate his brothers disap-
pearance; that she thought Ray Lam
phere knew more of these things than
she would have him know, and that all
these things eliminated at this time.
"Our evidence will show that she had
reason to commit the crime of April
%. The evidence will show that she
did commit the crime"
| 1t is expected Dr. Walter Haines OF
| Chicago will be here tomorrow to tes-
tify that he found poison in the stom-
achs of Andrew Helgelein and three
of the four bodies taken from the
ruins of the fire.

case where a few dollars will do a
great deal of good at the appro-
pirate Christmas time.
I appeal to The Herald to pur-
chase groceries for a destitute
family consisting of a mother, six
children and an old man. The
mother is their sole support, she de-
pending on her earnings at the
washtub.
Having noticed your Santa Claus
offer 1 write to call your attention
to a salesman who is now unable
to work because of locomotor ataxia.
He is helpless and has a wife and
a 5-ye9r-old daughter, besides a
mother. The odds have been very
much against them, hence 81 Christ
mas dinner would be highly appre-
ciated.
This is from a mother:
/ have six children whom I am
afraid Santa Claus will not visit
unless you help me. The children
are all under IL years, the two
oldest girls large for their ages.
Three cheers for your plan.
This carpenter is in distress:
There's a carpenter with six chill
dren who will have a scant Christ
mas unless they are helped. The
father has been out of work much
of the time. 1t would be blessing
to help the family.
Womans helplessness is shown
these two missiVes:
There's a family now destitute
because the father had typhoid
fever and was unable to work for
months. He is in such condition
that he may never get well. The
wife is unable to work, as she has a
sick baby.
A widow with eight children, one
of whom is a boy hurt by being
run over by a wagon, would grate-
fully appreciate some help from
you.
Reader, what will you give?

dominion.
]. A. Brown of North Carolina
claimed that on account of the higher
cost of labor, stumpage and supplies
for the lumber industry, 80 per cent of
the lumber mills OF North Carolina are
shut down, their operation proving un-
profitable.
Champ Clark claimed the high price
of lumber was due to the speculation
on the part of the lumber producers.
The witness argued that the price OF
stumpage, one of the principal cost
items in procuring lumber, was too
high.
j. A. Freeman of st. Louis, d. e.
Skinner of San Francisco and G. w.
Nibley of Oregon added their voices to
the appeal for the continuation of a
protective tariff on lumber Mr. Nib
ley admitted that the profits in his bus
mess were 10 to Is per cent under pro-
tective tariff.
The committee took a recess for din
ner at Z O'clock, resuming the hearing

men and witnesses interested in reeds

FATAL FLAMES
fNTOMB MANY
THREE ARE DEAD IN FIRE IN
MONTANA MINE
SIX oTHE S MISSING AND MANY
NARROWLY ESCAPE
Seven Miners Are Rescued in Half
Dead condition-Disaster
Occurs at Red
Lodge

BUTTE, Mont. Nov. 20.-Fire about
10 o'clock this morning in the fourth
drift east from No. 2 slope of the
Northwestern Improvement company's S
mine at Red Lodge, has caused the
death of three miners and the probable
death of six more.
The known dead:
SAMUEL GASPERS.
JOHN MATSON.
ANDREW, JOKALA.
Seven men were taken from the
workings at l o'clock this afternoon
in a half dead condition and are now
in the hospital.
The fire department members and
fifty volunteers then started the work
of rescue and within half an hour the
skips were running with rapidity down
the fourth entry and hundred men
were loaded on the cars and brought to
the surface, many of them completely
exhausted and lifeless.
Pit Boss William Haggerty, when
carried up in one of the skips, was
almost overcome, but was restored by
the physicians. He remained braVely
to his post until the very last in an
endeavor to save his men, and after
recuperating made frantic efforts to go
back into the mine.
Confusion Prevails
Everything within the vicinity of the
mine is in the widest confusion.
The fire is terrific, judging from the
immense volume of smoke and fire
emitted from the second entry.
Coal cars and lumber are ablaze and
the damage to property will naturally
be heavy.
At 8 o'clock this afternoon iron pipes
were laid into the mines and by night
there was a flow of water playing on
the flames.
The fire is said to be confined to a
small area but the gases and smoke
have spread to various workings, and
1t is believed number of men have
been caught.
The company operating the Red
Lodge mines is one of the largest con-
Germs of the kind in the west. The
officers of the Northern Pacific control
the company, which supplies that road
with fuel. Most of the miners en-
ployed are foreigners.
A similar disaster at this property
in 1906 cost the lives of eight miners.
