SPOKANE OFFICER
KILLED
ORDERED THUG TO STOP AND
RECEIVED A FATAL BULLET
FOR A REPLY-ASSASSIN NOT
CAPTURED.

Spokane. Oct. 2s.-Night Patrol
man Alfred B. Waterbury, who was
shot by desperate man last night,
died this morning. Waterbury had
ordered the man to halt The an
swer was a pistol bullet that pierced
his groin. Lying on the ground the
wounded officer fired four shots at
the murderer but none took effect.
A heavy overcoat, pair of overshOes
and a black mask were found along
his trail. A reward of $4,000 has
been offered.
There are no clues to the identity
of the assailant but an overcoat, with
black mask in one pocket. which
was tossed to one side by the thug
in his flight, and pair of rubbers.
each rubber found at a considerable
distance from the scene of the shoot
ing.
Officer Waterbury with Patrolman
Hage and Rolf, was watching the
streets near Tenth avenue for hold
ups said to be prowling about that
neighborhood. He had separated
from the other two officers, when he
saw a man whom he ordered to stop.
But one shot was fired by the sus-
pect, striking the officer, who fell to
the ground. but drew his revolver
and fired four shots at the retreating
form of the assailant before he COL
lapsed.
1t was found that the extraction of
the bullet was comparatively easy, as
it had gone entirely through the body
and almost emerged in the back. The
wounded officer suffered excruciating
pain, however. as the shot had pene-
trated vital organs His wife was
brought to the hospital about an hour
after the shooting and was with him
all night.
The death came early this morn

TO INVESTIGATE
CAUSE Of WORMS
PROF. A. L. MELANDER OF STATE
COLLEGE SPENDING SEVERAL
DAYS HERE TO STUDY CAUSES
OF PEST OF WORMS.

Prof A. L. Melanjer, of the Wash
ington State College at Pullman, is
in the city today and expects to re-
main here two or three days. The
object of his trip is to make a study
into the cause of the great number
of wormy apples that are to be found
in the orchards all over the state.
Last year the state college authorities
had charge of the spraying of sew
eral orchards in this valley and had
remarkable success in keeping down
the worms This year even the COL
lege did not have as good success as
usual. The college had charge of
the spraying of several orchards in
Garfield county this year and when
the apples were picked recently it
was found that 3 per cent were
wormy Last year following the col
lege spraying only portion of l per
cent was found to be effected by
worms and Mr.. Melander can give no
explanation other than that climatic
conditions were unfavorable to the
pest of worms which has effected the
fruit all over the state this year.
He is here for the purpose of max
ing a study of this matter and may
possibly have some statement to
make later on.

morning a thrill at Bermonds Eye
by-election when she smashed a bot
tie containing corrosive acid on the

was to destroy the ballots in the
box as protest against the exclu-

chise. What she accomplished was
the painful burning of some elec.
ton officials and assuring her arrest
About the same time similar at

done except burning the finger tips

STREET STRIKE
STILL CON
T|NUES
RANKS OF STRIKERS SLOWLY
DIMINISHING BUT MEN WHO
HOLD OUT FOR DEMANDS.

The strike situation of the city is
about the same as yesterday, the only
difference being that the band OF
strikers is steadily diminishing. There
is a great deal of work for men in
the orchards adjacent to Wenatchee
and quite a number of the men for
merly engaged in the street work are
now picking and packing apples. 1t
is said that about II Of the men have
left the city for good.
AS usual, the men had a meeting
this morning at their rendezvous on
the river bank at the foot of Orondo
avenue and voted to go back to work
only at the terms as announced last
week.
The contractors this morning state
that they have some additional help
on the concrete mixer, four or five
additional men going to work this
morning. The strikers, however,
claim that three of the men with the
mixer yesterday quit at noon at the
request of the strikers
There has been no disorder at any
time from the striking men and they
claim that no lawlessness will be tol-
Grated in any form.
The agitator who was given $50
fine Monday has left town. Secre-
tary c. L. Tiligno. of the Spokane
Industrial Workers, still remains here
and encourages the men to hold out.
The strike committee, however, state
that he has nothing to do with the
final action and that the conduct of
the strike is entirely in the hands of
the men The strike committee has
no fears of outside men being i'm
ported as both Seattle and Spokane
is thoroughly organized and cogniz-
ant of the condition over here and
that there is no danger of outside
men coming in here
