FARGO NEGRO
MURDERED
Parker Sieeman Shot IN Poker
Game at Egeland
SAID To HAVE Wife HERE
NUMBER OF MEN PLAYING Pok-
ER, QUARREL RESULTED AND
sIEEMAN WAS SHOT TO DEATH
BY ISAAC MGINNIs OF KEN
TUckYs

Egeland, n. D.. Sept. 1S Parker
Sieeman, colored, aged 26 said to have
been from Fargo, was shot to death
yesterday as the result of a quarrel
over a poker game. Isaac sMcGinnis,
white man from Kentucky is held as
his slayer, charged with murder in
the first degree. Sieeman is said to
have remarked to other members of
the crew that his wife lived in Fargo.
The two were members of a gang
of threshers who were playing poker
while laying off because of the wet
weather, about half a mile west of
Egeland. There was about So in a
pot which was lying on the impro-
vised table.
A dispute arose over the money and
Sieeman reached over in front Of
the Kentuckian and picked up some
of the latter's coin. McGinnis reached
into his pocket, pulled six shooter
and fired two shots into Sieeman's
breast.
The wounded man staggered back,
turned and started to run and McGin-
mis- is said to have emptied the re-
naming four shots into the negro's
back, killing him.
McGinnis then ran and was chased
for two miles by a posse. He was
finally captured by Porter Filskoz and
Ole Romley Of Egeland.
All efforts to locate Mrs. Sieeman
in Fargo have proved unavailing.
