Negro Who ;XIUed Bnlil Laughs at Puerile Efforts of Police Latter Gave r Him Seven Days in Which to Get Away s The murderer of L. C Ruhl Is stlQ at large and up to noon today the po lice had no clue as to his whereabouts. Ths case Is one that illustrates ths methods now- In vogue In the depart ment Ruhl, who was the white pro prietor of a negro lodging-house at 122 North Seventh street, was beaten over the head by one of his lodgers oa the evening of December 30 and left for deadi In a room where the murderous assault occurred. Some of the people In the building found the unoonsclous man, sent him to the hospital and Informed the police of what had occurred. Patrolman L. Hirsch was sent to ths house to make an investigation and made the follow ing report: "About 8:80 p. m. a colored man by ths name of overman came to Mr. Ruhl's room, 123 North Seventh street, and beat him over the head with a gun. He rooms there In room No. 6. He Is a small man with a mustache." With this report the police Investiga tion of the caae came to an end, and was only resumed when tha authorities at Good Samaritan ' hospital reported yesterday morning that Ruhl had died as ths result of his Injuries. The negro who committed the ss sault that cost Ruh! his life is Claude Everman. He was known in the negro colony as a tough character who was given a wide berth by those who were anxious to keep out of trouble. He waa Known to many in and about toe lodging-house kept bv Ruhl. and had a vigorous search been made for htm on the night he attacked Ruhl It is almost certain he could have been found and arrested. It Is now evident that he has left ths city, as he hss not returned to hit room for his clothes snd has not been seen about his usual haunts since the night of the assault. As he has had a start of seven days, the time has been ample for him to put a considerable distance between himself and the place wnora no in noir wajueu to answer to S murder charge. . , iiminn HUULU UIOITUi ' DEL CITIZENS Vancouver, B.
