Terevine's body, the skull fractured in two places and the head almost severed, was found in the boiler room about two hours after death occurred. Leading from the boiler room to where they were lost amid traces of other traffic were footprints in the snow indicating that the murderer was a man of small statue. Terevine was slain at about 5 o'clock @ morning after he had lighted a the furnace. ~The murderer’ evidently entered the boiler room when the fireman's back was turned and struck him over the head from behind with an iron bar sheated in rabber hose. This bar, still retaining the im- print of hose fabric, was found in the fire nace. Supposedly the blow did not Terevine unconscious and fu render his assailant struck him several times more and the beating failing to produce death, cut his throat from ear to ear. The condition of the body and the blood clots scattered over the floor indicated that Terevine had made a hard struggle or had threshied about ‘considerably in his death agony. The murderer removed Terevine's keys from his pocket and went to the fireman's room in the Washakie plunge building. The room was thor- oughly searched, drawers being pulled out and dumped on the floor, the bed torn to pieces and even the curtains torn from .'tha windows. Terevine's wallet, in which he is known to have carried a large sum in currency, was| in a bathroom, emp Blood. suypose_ly from the murder- cr’s hands or clothing, were found on the bedelothes, curtains and articles of Tergvine’s wardrobe. The murderer’ is supposed to have been familiar with 'Terevine’s custom of carrying his savings, amounting to a considerable sum, in his wallet. Friends several times warned him against continuance of this habit but he laughed at their fears.
