about the center of the forehead, the
said shot fred by William Nlemi and
that same was feloniously done.' The
inquest wa held before Justice Of the
Peace and Acting Coroner Stanley A.

The body was identified at the morgue
of O'Donnell Il Co., Tuesday morning,
by John Perra and A. Johnson as that
of Sam Esterberg, who had been in

223 South Second East street, Hugo
Johnson, who lives over the CONNER
cial bar, where the shooting took place
j John Hermanson of the Commercial bar
and Wick Watson. Niemi also testified.
The testimony of the witnesses was
largely to the effect that the two men
had been drinking heavily, and after
throwing dice had become involved in
some sort of IA dispute, whereupon Niemi
drew his revolver and shot Esterberg.
Niemi says he did not know what he
was doing when he shot Esterberg, that
he was too drunk.
Niemi will be charged with murder
in the first degree in a complaint to
be issued by the county attorney We'd
