Thomas notified Coroner r. B. Dibble;
then the sheriff and Undersheriff Ken
yon Immediately started for tho scene,
the coroner also going at once.
About $50 yards up the road was
found a large pool of blood, around
which. the hard ground had bean
scraped and disturbed as tho there had
been some sort OF struggle; from
that point to the bridge which covers
an arroyo about eight feet deep. there
was continuous trail OF blood.
In the back of the head. not far
from the top, was a bullet hole, and
the bullet had emerged-at the upper
portion OF the forehead little to the
right of the center. leaving a ragged
and cash like opening.
Coal oil or gasoline had been poured
over the head and upper portion of the
body after it had been dropped into
the arroyo and dragged under one end
of tho bridge against a cross brace.
and not only was the face and head
and much of the upper clothing con-
sumed by the flames, but the 8-inch
heavy board brace was almost burned
In two and was still smoldering when
Mr. Nell made the discovery.
From the location OF tho body were
the tracks of o man and boy leading
thru fence and into the weeds; they
then separated. the tracks being lost
on tho roadway when II was eached
at different points by the supposed
two ssassins. The fact that tho tra cks
had pointed in different direction,
seems to indicate that the boy left tho
man and fled, from the scene
Tho dead man woro a heavy broad
cloth overcoat lined with fur: under
this was a heavy grey sweater, then an
ordinary day coat, then an army shirt.
and under this another sweater with
out sleeves. Tho underwear was new
and OF good quality light wool. The
tan shoes, about No. size with rubber
heels. were now and but little mafred;
the socks wcro OF good quality and
new.
A brown winter cap was found at
the spot where the large pool Of blood
was discovered. the bullet hole was
thru the center OF the back but had
not passed thru the front. indicating
that the cap set well back on tho head
when the shot was fired; there was
somo blood on the lining.
Tho dead man was either a dark
complesioncd white man or a light
complcxioned Mexican or other for
eigner. but hi, hands were soft and
gave no indication OF manual labor.
Age about 2s or 80 years: height
feet, inches; weight about I+5 pounds.
In pockets of the dead man wa,

governor of Nebraska from 1918 to 1915,
and candidate for the U. s. senate in

iterated the desire that there would
result no permanent infringement on

Except for the French who expressed
confidence in the Japanese pledge to
