DON'T KNOW
Man THEY SHOT
OFFICERS BLAMED BY BROTHER
OF "DE5" MOORE AND REAs
SON GIVEN.

GRAFTON. Dec. 22H = Nh. Jesse
Moore, brother Of Deb" Moore, who
was killed by Wheeling officers last
Saturday night, denies, IN some mea
sure, the story Of the killing as detail
ed by the officers, He claims that his
brother was caused TO go outside oil
the house on the evening Of the shoot.
ing by the boisterous. barking Of his
dgs in the yard. The time was after
six o'clock and It was very dark, too
dark, to distinguish faces at any dis.
taace. Moore called to his dog to be
quiet. and at the same time was com.
manded to surrender by voices outside
the fence. With that he started to run
to the house, but was shot down be-
fore he could reach 1t. Mr.. Jesse Moore
claims that II It had been his father
or him in the yard at the time they
world have got the bullets, for the
darkness prevented the men from iden.
tifying anyone and beside none OF the
officers had ever seen his brother TO
the best Of his knowledge.
