Green, 178? Hayen street, Mrs, Agee screamed for aid and aroused ths neighborhood. , Mr. and Mrs. , Green started back with her. YXCTIM BUSS TO POBCH As the party neared the house, Agee stumbled Out on ths porch and. after turning on ths porch light, fell to the floor. 'In a few. seconds a crowd of neigh bors gathered. - After city detectives ar rived, a rasor was found lying in the street about 25 feet from the front door of the house. The rasor was spotted with blood. It was one Mrs. Age had never seen before, she said. On the south side of the house, oppo site a dining room window, which was found to be locked, was found a carv ing set. a watch and several -articles of Jewelry. The finding of this loot strengthened the. burglary : theory; but the fact that the window was locked made burglary seem Improbable. COBOXEtt SUSPECTS SUICIDE ' Deputy Coroner Leo Geetsch; adheres to the theory that it might have been suicide, but the neighbors are certain this : eould not have - been so. At 10 o'clock the night before. Mr. and Mrs, Green and Mra. Bertha Gangne, another neighbor, left the Ages home,1 after visit. They all stated that the Agees seemed In the best of spirits, and in every way cheerful and happy. Mrs. .Agee, in giving a description of ths man she aaw running from the house, stated he might have bad a white handkerchief about his face. Her description otherwise was vague. She told the police her bracelet, which was en her arm when she retired, was miss ing after the. affair. This was found with the loot outside the locked window, TWO CHIXBBEW AWAKE f . . i ' Two children, aged S and 3. were sleeping in another room at the time. They were awakened after the escape of the murderer, r.nd the eldest was present when neighbors were attempt ing to give first aid to the dying father. Dr. Van Ulehr, ITJ1 Haven street, was called, but waa unable to render any assistance. , James Hunter and Fred Grover, Bertillton experts, visited the .house, but could find no finger prints that would help solve the mystery. The rasor had been in the wet grass, and nothing eould be gotten' from it. - ' ; ' The police were told of a threat made by a Mexican, whom Agee arrested sev eral years ago while serving as marshal In Worland. Wyo. The Mexican, who was charged with being drunk, is re ported to have threatened to kill Agee. At Af irst . this caused some excitement, but the detectives - later discaroed the theory that the murder-was committed for revenge. Another report was made that Agee had had some altercation with other Workmen at the Portland Gas A Coke company, where he was employed, but Investigation failed to reveal any thing to support this theory, r Mrs. Agee is remaining wth her two children in the Green home. ; , Coroner Earl : Smith "announced Sat urday - night that an inquest would be held at the court house at 8 :30 Monday night. : COMPENSATION ACT : OF STATE IS TARGET r : . . - - - I" .
