1t now develops that prompt action
ON the part of the police on the night
of July 21. would probably have re-
suited in the capture of the hold-ups
who made an unsuccessful attempt to
rob Las Vegas Traction company
car. and in all likelihood would have
prevented the subsequent murder of
James Baker, a restaurant employe.
This because recent developments
show that the two crimes we're COM
mitted by the same persons.
Although the traction car was held
up at O'Clock in the evening and
Conductor George Schmidt shot. the
matter was not reported to Chief of
Police Ben Coles or the sheriff's Of
flee until the next day. Officer E. C.
Ward, of the night force who was
advised of the attempted hold-up of
Schmidt. so far as can be learned, did
nothing further than to ride out to
the scene of the attempted robbery on
car, look about the ground and ride
back again. As a result, another
crime. this time cold-blooded murder,
was committed at O'Clock the next
morning, when the thugs shot and
killed James Baker at the Meridian
restaurant.
Committed Both Crimes.
That the same men committed both
crimes is substantiated by the fact
that the description of the men given
by Conductor Schmidt tallies with
that given by Special officer H. M.
Babbitt, Of the Santa Fe railway, of
three men who on the night in ques-
tion accosted Babbitt at the Santa
Fe station and asked to be directed
to a place where they could get some
thing to eat Babbitt sent them to
the Meridian restaurant.
The night cook at the Meridian, o.
w. White. says that these three men
visited the restaurant four different
times between 8 O'Clock and u
o'clock that night. They first bought
something to eat, and the next three
visits were made for drink Of water
and to get matches. Their suspicious
actions made Baker nervous. accord

NEGLIGENCE OF OFFICER
AIDED MURDERERS ESCAPE

ing to Whites statement and he took
two revolvers kept in the restaurant
and placed them under the counter
where he sat writing, so as to have
them handy in case of an emergency.
That the hold-ups shot to kill Con-
ductor Schmidt is certain, for as
he reached for his gun when ordered
to throw up his hands, the man who
had covered him with gun, fired
almost instantly. The bullet struck
him in the right thumb just as he had
his hand half way to his hip pocket,
showing that the highwayman was
shooting to kill. intending to hit him
either in the breast or abdomen.
When the attempted robbery of the
Meridian restaurant took place. the
highwaymen were on the alert for just
such a move as was made by their
first victim. and when Baker reached
for his gun. they were prepared and
he was killed almost instantly.
According to a girl who was in the
Model restaurant, few doors below
the Meridian, on the morning of tha
murder of Baker, she heard several
men run past the restaurant, within
few seconds after she had heard
the report Of two shots nearby. She
overheard one of the men cursing and
caught part of a sentence which was
C d it, we must have killed
him. But this girl thought perhaps 1t
was only a drunken row and paid no
further attention to the matter.
Did Not Investigate
Now comes the part that officer
Ward played in the affair. When
Ward reached the restaurant few
minutes after Baker was killed. the
cook started to show him how the
dead man told him Of the shooting,
and started to pick up the gun which
was lying by the victims side, when
Ward IS alleged to have said: Young
man, don't touch that gun. leave It
just where it is. This order was
given By the OFFICER who despite the
fact that be was told two shots had
