DITIS SHOT IN DUEL ITH POLICE Giles Humphrey, city detective, lies at the city hospital with a soft-nosed bullet flattened against his thigh bone. In another cot, a few feet away, is Abe Turner, alias Jim McCoy, who, according to Captain of Detectives Tennant, was sent to Monroe reformatory two years ago for robbery, for one to 15 years. At the time of his first arrest he gave his age as 18. The two engaged in a thrilling revolver duel late Tues- |day night. For Turner, the boy, according to the assertion of Captain of Detectives Tennant, is the daring street car bandit whose exploits during the past four months have driven the police to distraction. Detectives laid a cunning trap for him. A car crew had been held up on the Mt. Baker line Saturday night. The bandit's methods were identically the same as they have been on the cther occasions, sometimes two or three times a week. A lonely spot near the end of the line. A curt order to the conductor and motorman to “throw up your hands.” A hurried search. Exit, bandit. So detectives, armed and vigilant, lay in wait Sunday night and Monday night, near the terminals of all city car lines. And then, Tuesday night, they got their man. “But,” said Detective Humphrey today, as he glanced over at the other white cot, “he’s such a kid.” Turner had emptied his gun at Humphrey, and had tried |to escape. Detective Ralph Jones fired at him as he ran. Jones’ gun barked three times, and the boy crumpled up and went down. Two of the bullets took effect. One broke his right leg. The other penetrated his side. Doctors at the hospital today thought he would recover. But it had been ja close squeak. Humphrey and Jones hid themselves in the brush Tues- day night near the end of the Beacon Hill car line. So, too it developed, did Turner. About 9:45 a car approached, and came to a stop. The coast seemed clear. The boy stepped out, his face masked with a handkerchief, and “stuck up” the conductor, W. E. Jones, and Motorman E. R. Davis in the usual breezy style of the bandit whose methods have be- come so well known to the police. He lined them up beside the car, with their hands in the HOME EDITION air. And just then the officers strolled out of their hiding place. The boy saw them coming. Humphrey spoke to him Turner wheeled and fired pointblank. Humphrey shot anc missed. Again the flash of the boy's revolver, and again, anc |Humphrey went down. The boy ran. Humphrey emptied |his weapon and then, lying prostrate, threw the gun at the fleeing bandit. Detective Jones had gone around the other side of the |ear. He opened fire on the boy. Turner shot back at him itwice. “I fired three times, I guess, before I got him,” said Jones. On the way to the hospital, Hum- phrey and the boy exchanged con- fidences on how ft felt to be shot, Both agreed that it was rough bus- iness. J Writes for a Barrel of That Free Sugar BATON ROUGE, La., June 11. (Spl.)—The prospect of free trade has been somewhat misun derstood in some localities of Terrebonne parish, if a letter received by Gov. Hall represents the expectations of the people there. The letter follows “Dear Sir, please send me a barrel of free sugar. I heard there are Free Sugar, so I wish you to send me a Barrel of it at once. For I am very poor. Your True Friend, Phe letter ts dated at Gibson The governor refused to di vulge the writer's name Detective Tells Story “I just got here from Portland,” said the boy,” and was up against it. I was only there a few days. |Came up from San Francisco. I came from England, but I won't tell you about my folks.” Further questioning failed to make the boy tell any more about himself. “I don't feel very enthusiastic over having to shoot down an 18- year-old boy,” said Detective Jones, as he looked over his Sav- |age ‘automatic, while sitting on the side of his bed this morning “Did the boy die?” he asked, and, on being told that Turner was still alive, he expressed hope that ithe youngster would pull through. Watch Cars Come in I don't want to tell any police secrets, but we were out there waiting for something like this to happen. From our hiding place in the coal shed we watched while the conductor of each car reported n from the call box. “Across the street, in a real es- tate office, a bunch of young fel- lows were singing rag-time songs, and at 9:40 they started for home. They were hardly out of sight when this car came in, and a mo- ment later we saw the conductor and motorman standing alongside of the curb, with their hands in the air, and a man, who had walked out of the brush, talking to them, Talks of Shooting “Humphrey circled to the left and I walked slowly across the street towards them. When I w about half y across, Humph and the robber opened fire at each other, They fired about three shots apiece, and then the robber started to run back of the car “In the darkn I, saw another man at the head of the and realized that this must be a pas- |senger, or someone the robber did |not know, or he would have retreat- ed in that direction instead of run- jning so close to me. “I fired once as he passed and twice ted away. He fell just_as he reached the curb The gun [shot him with is a new one. Just bought it yesterday. One of the first 38-Savage guns made, I guess.” ON MAIDEN TRIP HAMBURG, June 11.—The great new Hamburg-American liner Im perator started from here today on her maiden voyage across the At lantic.
