Riverside, Cal, Jan. 4.--Lying in
waiting in the hall of a downtown Of
flee building, John Chinnici, an Ital-
ian, shot and probably fatally wound
ed Justice of the Peace Holton Webb,
as he was entering his office today.
Chinnici then slipped down stairs to
the street, and fled toward the open
country. A posse, of police and deputy
sheriffs at once took his trail, which
led toward the desert.
Chinnici was captured on the bor-
der of San Bernardino county by Sher-
iff Wilson, after a terrific chase. The
Italian, on a bicycle, for two hours
eluded the posse, and only gave up
when he fell exhausted from th e
machine.
Wilson is taking every precaution to
guard his prisoner. The man was
brought to Riverside surrounded by
armed deputies, who feared an attempt
at lynching by Webb's angry friends.
Feeling is running high, and the sher-
if has ordered triple guard through
out the Jail.
The shooting grew out of civil suit
involving 500, in which Chinnici and
his brother were litigants Webb de-
cided against Chinnici, who stormqd
from the court room in a rage.
Chinnici fired four times at the JUS
tice. One bullet found it's mark,
plowing through the right shoulder
and lodging in the right lung. Webb
was rushed to hospital, where, it is
stated, he had little chance to recover.

Portland, Ore, Jan. 4.-The mystic
rious "Dr. j. c. Day. over whose real
identity the Portland police puzzled
for nearly a week, admitted that he
was Frank c. Smith, who is wanted in
Los Angeles for embezzling $95O0
from Nellie X. Bell.
The police assert that Smith con-
fessed that he got the woman money,
and said that he was willing to re
turn to California without extradition
papers and stand trial. According to
advices received here Smith left his
wife in Los Angeles eight months ago
when he dropped from sight.
Since his disappearance he has been
in Alaska and British Columbia. He
arrived in Portland recently, and was
arrested for entering a room in To-
cal hotel not his own.
Following Smiths arrest the police
found checks in the sum of $1,000
made in favor of H. H. Chase, drawn
on the Bank of Commerce of Victoria,
BE-, several checks on Seattle banks,
which since proved worthless, and a
number Of articles bearing different
names
All efforts to identity the man
failed, however, until today when

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 4.-Expressions Of
William j. Bryan's opinions in the Nc
Namara cases are set forth today in
the current issue of his periodical,
"The Commoner.' 1t says;
"The McNamara confessions have
given enemies of union labor a chance
to libel all connected with organized
efforts to protect the wage earners.
The same men who are indignant
whenever the sins of 'sweatshop' own
ers are charged against all manufac-
turers; when the crimes of the trust
magnates are imputed to all engaged
in business; when the vices of Napo-
Icons Of finance are laid at the door of
bankers in general, are fastening to
hurl broadsides of libel at all who are
forced to earn their bread by the
sweat Of their brow.
This is manifestly unfair. Organ
lied labor has learned a lesson. 1t
will be more careful in the future Sc
lection of leaders. Society may we'll
pause and inquire if anything is wrong
with conditions which lead men into
dastardly conspiraces against life
and property"
