M0T0RMAN BADLY
SHOT AT DECATUR

Decatur May 31.-(SpeciaL)-An I'M
known assassin who was evidently bent
on murder fired load of No. 8 shot from
a street car motorman, last night late
while the motorman was on duty. The
shot took effect In the side of MotormaE
Daniel, from his shoulder down to his
hip, some of them striking and lodging in
the pit of the stomach. 1t is feared that
the motormans wounds may prove fatal,
although he was resting easy today. The
attending physician says 1t is impossible
at this time to determine just how seri-
feared some of the shot may have car
ried into the flesh some of the clothing.
Motorman Daniel says SO far as he is
aware he did not have an enemy In the
world. an6. he is unable to give any reas-
on or motive for the act. The street
car company, it is said. will do all within
its power to bring the guilty party to
justice. 1t was evidently the intention
of the person who fired the shot to MUIR
der Motorman Daniel, but for what pur-
pose is mystery. II the motive was
robbery the person who fired the shot
was evidently frightened away, because
no robbery was attempted
The shooting took place near Oakton
park, In New Decatur, and at the poiyH
where the car stops to change the trolley
and 60 back to town. BY the side of
the track where the car stops and where
the shooting occurred is a small shed

Crawford of this place. acting as coro-

of the burning of the Lucille prison in
the northern part of Bib county about
two weeks ago, when nearly 80 convicts
lost their lives. A jury has been sum

doubt occupy several days. An assistant
convict inspector made an investigation
and exonerated those In charge of the
prison, but this investigation did not
seem to satisfy all the citizens of that
section, so complaint was made to the
circuit judge and circuit solicitor and
the investigation by Justice of the Peace
Crawford, acting as coroner, followed.

took the position that the investigation
after the report of the convict inspector
was entirely unnecessary, but the county
