One of the boys was sent 1to the tower to phone for a doctor. {About this time the train came and stopped but when the crew found ‘tha( it could do nothing, they brought jthe train into the city. Doctors were {at once rushed to the scene but were not needed. The bodies were not moved until viewed by the coroner. | Helmer’s body was taken to the EZ\Iurphy undertaking rooms where it was viewed this morning by the Ifriends of the dead deputy. The itramp was taken to the Ibertson’s kundertaking rooms. The down town |streets were crowded until a late hour {last night by people discussing the {tragedy. The Pioneer had an extra lon the street by 8 p. m. which gave {substantially the details of the shoot- {ing. i An examination of Helmer's body |brought to light the facts that the {bullet which killed him entered the |left breast, Denetrated the aorta, and Icame out in the sixth space on the right side shattering the sixth and {seventh ribs. The bullet was from ’a -45 Colt shell. Doctors say that it would be impossible for a man to (live fifteen seconds with such a wound. The boys who witnessed the ishooting say that Helmer was 'crouched over as he shot at the tramp {and that he walked about three steps {before he fell. They did not know that he was hit until he fell. Coroner Ibertson this morning stated that he had searched the tramp ibut that nothing was found by which !he could be identified. Tn one pocket il)e found an express bill made out to “W. Wayne” in Akeley, April 25. 11912, calling for an “Sk” or “Pk” which is taken to mean that he ex- |pressed a duffle bag. Whether or (not this is the man’s name cannot be stated. On the tramps person were {also found eleven gold band rings in {a small sack. and he had a razor {suspended from his neck by a strap. ‘iHe was about forty years old and weighed close to 160 pounds. The |bullet which killed him passed |through his body just below the ribs. | Many Bemidji people met the Soo train at 4:30 yesterday afternoon jand saw Helmer when he started fidown the track. It was hard for them | to believe a short time later that he |was dead and many refused to look jat the body, preferring to remember i"’Norm”, as he was popularly called 'as they had last seen him. | Talk of Lynching. | Before it was definitely learned ithat the tramp was dead and while i{the report that he was ~ slightly | wounded was being received as au- |thentic, there was much talk of ilynching and a rope party would isurely have followed had the man jbeen found alive.
