15 THE MORNING- OHEGONIAN, SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1905. FORGER IS SHOT Detectives- Wound Es caping Man. RUNS WHEN ARRESTED Day and Weiner Fire Three Shots; Two Take Effect -CHECK-FORGING THE CHARGE Louis Schumcr, a Giant in Stature, !s' Captured After an Exciting Race, in. Which He Is Se verely Wounded. Ixmis Schumer. a veritable giant, un der arrest on a charge of forgery, was ehot down by Detectives Day and TWelner at Eighteenth and Savler streets at 7:30 o'clock last night, -while attempting to escape. One bullet pierced his right leg . above the heel and another entered the calf of the left, shattering the bone and imbedding itself in the flesh. He is now in Good Samaritan Hospital, under care of As sistant City Physician Slocum. He is expected to recover. It is alleged that Schumer, who is aged 26 years, stands six feet and one Inch in height and whose weight Is 238 pounds, passed a check for $13.50 on W. H. Lehman, of the Pacific Hotel, tlurlng the forenoon. It was written on a blank of the First National Bank, .was made payable to the order of Schumer and was countersigned "man" ager Star Sand Company:" "When Leh man presented it for payment he was informed there were no funds to Schumer's credit. At 7 o'clock last nignt Lehman called at Police Headquarters and turned the check over to Captain Moore, relating the circumstances and adding he wished officers to accompany him to Schumer's home. Detectives Day and "Weiner were assigned to the case and started Xor Eighteenth and Raleigh streets, -where the alleged forger lives. Attempts to Escape Arrest. At Eighteenth and Savier streets Lehman saw Schumer and so informed the- detectives. Schumer seemed to realize he was about to be arrested and assumed a defiant attitude. Tou are under arrest," said Detec tive Day, "and had better come along without making any trouble." "I'll not go with you until I go home and see my wife," said Schumer, and he started to go toward his residence. Both Day and Weiner laid hold of him, but he broke away and started to run. Day and Weiner at first thought they could outrun the fleeing man, and Day got near enough one time to attempt to strike him with a revolver. Schumer cwsnt tmcfc his powerful hand, strik ing Day In the side of the head and 'Quickly regaining his feet. Day called out to Schumer to stop or be shot. Weiner also warned him. "You're not srame. You wouldn't shoot anything," Schumer sang out, and continued his pace. "Quit running or I'll hurt you, Schumer. Tou had better stop and avoid trouble," was Day's final warn ing. Two Shots Take Effect. Still Schumer ran and became the target for the revolvers of Day and Weiner. Day was close on his heels, and it Is believed- the only two shots he fired took effect. Weiner fired once. Schumer dropped on the sidewalk, but never uttered a word. He was "game" throughout the ordeal, and did not complain. Police Headquarters were notified and a patrol wagon dispatched to con "vey Schumer to Good Samaritan Hos pital. There he was attended by Dr. Slocum. He refused to permit the house surgeons to attend him, as he said he wished an Eagle to have the case. When Schumer's wife was notified of the trouble she replied that she knew what he was shot for; that she knew tie had been passing forged checks, and that she Intended leaving him and go ing to live with her parents. She re fused to call upon him at the hospital. It is believed by the detectives that "developments will show Schumer to have been engaged In the business of passing checks for some time. His .record will be investigated thoroughly today. He has lived in Portland but five weeks. WILL NOT DEPOSE CHIEF HTTNT Mayor Denies Rumor That the Ax Is About to Fall. "I have no intention of deposing Chief Hunt. I know of no reason why I should . do so. My position is exactly the same as Jt has. always been." ' The foregoing Is the statement of Mayor Williams regarding the reported plan bf the Mayor and police committee of the Executive Board to put Charles H. Hunt on the shelf for political reasons. The rumor has been heard on the street corners for several weeks. Members of the police committee have vigorously de nied it. Tho Mayor has refuted the re port before, and did so again last even ing. The Chief of Police has been under an Investigation because of the charge that he permitted certain saloons to re main open after 1 o'clock. The verdict is still locked in the minds of General Beebe and Slg SIcheL of the committee. It will probably be a declaration that Chief Hunt is doing his duty and enrorcmg tne law.
