SEATTLE TOUR PARTY VISITS JUNEAU TODAY Business Executives Guests of City on Business (Continuea rrom Page One) citizens generally, from the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. Charles D.

Perfect weather atured the voyage visitors were met at the by representatives of the Chamber of Commerce who wel- comed them informally. The after- noon hours were spent largely in individual calls on local business men. At Ketchikan, Mr. Garfield said, the party was met by representa- tives of the Chamber of Commerce OR EVERYBODY STREET (;()()(]\\'ill T()U r { on the door of the room in which {she was sleeping yesterday, entered, |and asked if he might talk to her for a few moments. | She acquiesed. Witsell asked her |if she would return and live with him. She refused flatly, where-| |upon he drew forth a pistol and |fired one shot at her. The bullet missed its mark, but a second one |caught her in the hip as she was running out of the door. As she gai.ned access to a side entrance to St. Ann’s Hospital she heard a third shot fired, she said. Longhurst Testifies J. M. Longhurst, the only other eye-witness to the shooting, was visiting in the hospital at the time. He saw Witsell enter the house, he said, and about fifteen minutes later, Longhurst heard a single shot fired. He looked out to see Mrs. Manners running across the court. Witsell appeared in the doorway. He stood there a moment lookinz around and then stepped to the walk outside. The gun was in his left hand. He switched it to the right hand and raised it to his head, then lowered his arm and gazed at the pistol a moment. The second time he raised it he fired, and sank to the ground. Other testimony given revealed that two unexploded shells in the gun were never fired. Witsell bor- rowed the pistol, a .38 caliber Smith and Weston, from Mort Truesdell's gun store shortly after 11 a. m. yesterday. ‘Wanted Large Gun Witsell had been in the habit of borrowing a weapon of smaller cali- ber, but yesterday told Mr. Trues- dell he wished a larger one to “shoot some rats in the cellar.” Later, he told Mr. Truesdell, he was going up Mt. Roberts, and would be back before dark. He took ten shells. With one exception, more than two months ago, Mrs. Manners had not seen Witsell since they parted in February, she said, until he visited her yesterday. She testified, also, that he was nearly 48 years of age. He came to this country from Sweden when a young man, she said, and had told her that his parents were not living. No relatives survive, besides his widow, as far as is known. ‘The investigation was conducted by Arthur Fox; United States Com- missioner. Members of the coron- er's jury were Pete Jelich, A. P. Lauriey Jacob Meyer, L. Nylund, F. P. Oook and Joe Hunter. — .- FISHING PARTY RETURNS After spending two days at Os- car Olson'se camp on Moose Creek, up the Taku River, Phil Jolie, R. B.
