ANOTHER VICTIM
OF GUN T0TERS
BRAKEMAN FARRAR OF NORTH
WESTERN SHOT AND KILLED
Murderer Arrested and Admits Guilt
Preliminary Hearing
Now On

Ross C. Farrar, one of the freight
brakemen on the North Western road
running out of Oakes, lost his life as
Aberdeen Thursday afternoon, Sept.
9th, as the result of q bullet from q
pistol in the hands of q hobo.
The freight train had reached Abb
erdeen on its way north, and was
about ready to pull from there, when
Brakeman Farrar in c:eaning the oox
cars of hob0es, came in contact with q
gunman who was rather surly about
leaving. He got out of the car with
the others, but before leaving he drew
q revolver and fired directly at the
brakeman, who was in one end of the
car. Farrar was shot in the abdomen
with what appeared to be a soft nosed
bullet. and was almost disemb0weled.
He was taken to st. Luke's Hospital
and died at 6:3O. The shooting took
place)at 4:40.
The hobo made his getaway down
the Milwaukee tracks east and into q
corn field, where he eluded his pursu-
ers until dark. He then made his way
to . hay stack some distance of,
where he spent the night. He contin-
ued next day to Q farm house three
miles north Of James, where his ac-
tions gave him away. He has talking
with some Of the men, when an auto
mobile came up the road. As it ap-
preached he ducked around the stack
and made his way to q corn field. The
deputy sheriff was apprised, and with
the aid Of the farmer and threshing
crew, the man was taken in just rs he
emerged from the field. He did not
resist arrest. He gave his name as
Jim Schmidt, and did not deny the
shooting. Self-defense is claimed, as
the brakeman had . gun leveied ct
him, he stated, when he shot.
His story at Aberdeen in the pre-
liminary examination Is that Farra1
shot 1t him before he fired. AL. Meun-
ker, the other brakeman on the train,
is ct Aberdeen now as witness. HIS
testimony is as follows:
HE got into the car in reponse to q
call from Farrax, and just in time sto
hear three shots. fired, in quick success;
sion. He could not tell who fired the
shuts, but saw . man standing outside
the car with gun in his hand, whose
arm jerked up rs though from the re.
coil Of the weapon. He e'so stated
that Farrar held gun pointed at the
door Of the car. He further stated
that he picked up Farrars gun ate,
the latter had been wounded. and that
later placed it in the baggage car"
The weapon used was = Colts 81

tridges. It is . question in court
whether one or two shots were fired
from It. Schmidt is being defended
by Attorney Van Slyke Of Aberdeen
who has been retained by the I. w. w
organization. The murderer was Z
member Of Local 400 at Kansas City
The hearing was still or in municipa
court 1t Aberdeen last evening.
