The Brownsville Murder.
We clip the following from yester
day's Albany Democrat concerning
the murder uear Brownsville:
Mr Montgomery had rented the
Templeton hop yard, working it tlio
past season, Mr Templeton, the owner,
residing with lilui. Yesterday Mr
Montgomery sold his hops to Mr Ed
Gilkey, a buyer, and received the pay
iu cash at the houso from Mr Ghkey
about 4 o'clock. At the time Mr Dan
McKercher was present. He had
made arrangements to boirow somo
money of Mr Montgomery Biid stopped
ou his way homo from ltrownsvillo to
get It. Tho eighteen year old son of
Mr Montgomery was also present.
After completing tho purchase Mr Gil
key left for Biownsville. He bad not
gone far when ho heard shots. Not
thinking it a serious matter, he con
tinued his journey.
The Montgomery children arrived
home from school and found the bodies
as stated. They notified their two
brothers who wore in tho field plow-
ng. The one present w lien Mr Gilkey
eft, Loyd, claimed to havo joined his
brother Immediately, and hearing the
allots thought his father was shooting
Bquirrels. Ho hastened home, jumped
on a horso aud notified the uelghburs.
The circumstances Indicate that Mr
Montgomery an 1 Mr McKerehor were
standing by a picket fence talking, Mr
Montgomery whittling a picket, when
the shooting commenced from behind.
Montgomery was shot first. A wom
an living across tlio river heard a volco
begging someoiio not to shoot, evident
ly MuKercher's, as it was not Mont
gomery's; .another shot followed. Mo-
Kereher was lilt in tho back of tho
head ami fell luslde of tlio door as lie
rushed from the murderer. Then tho
volco of the woman was heard scream
ing for mercy, and two shots wcro
fired. Mrs Montgomery was hit
twice, onco under tho arm and In tlie
back.
Some think I,oyd Montgomery did
the act, and that ho was not Iu tho
Held as claimed, others that boiiicoiio
else knowing ol tho money did It. No
one also was seen Iu the ciolghbo rhood,
and the money was gone. Either
Loyd Montgomery did It aud then
ran to tho field, or a stranger was the
guilty ono.
Our correspondent says of tho mur
dered people:
Montgomery and wife leuvo live
children. McKercher was unmarried
and was proprietor of the Ciawfords-
vllle llouring mill. Ho was a promi
nent member of the Workmen lodge
and was well liked. Montgomery and
his wife also were nice people and re
spected by all.
CORONER'S JURY VERDICT.
The jury alter hearing the evidence,
returned a Verdict, sigued by E A
Evens, as follows:
We tho jury find that John Mont
gomery aud Lizzie Montgomery, his
wile, and Daniel McKercher camo to
their deaths from gun shot wounds,
iulllctcd by somo oilier person
thau themselves, aud from the
evldcnco oflorcd In thn case, wo havo
good reasons to believe that Lloyd
Montgomery is the guilty party."
loyd Montgomery's testimony.
The young man accused of Hie crime
gavo tho following testimony, at tho
inquest, which Is taken from an extra
issued by the Brownsville Times:
Have been living with my parents,
Went hunting Monday and returned
Tuesday at 2 o'clock. When I arrived
here Aunt Olllu and Grandma were
here; they left at about 3:30. Just as
they left Mr Gilkey came and asked If
papa was at home; I answered In the
alilrmalive; went out where Mr Gil
key was and In u few minutes Dan
McKercher came up. He came in the
houso awhile and then he went out
where fattier aud Mr Gilkey were. Mr
Gilkey did not tarry long, and I start
ed out at the gate and father asked uie
where I was going: told him I was
going out where Orvy was plowing.
Just then mother came to the door
and said she wanted me to cut some
wood; I cut the wood and then started
out for where Orvy was; on tlio way I
got a squirrel up a tree and began
throwing at It. Then I heard three
shots; never paid any attention; sup
posed father was shooting a hawk or
something else. Pretty soon the chil
dreu came along from school and
ask'-d me If I had been shooting; told
tlieui no, that I guessed it was down
to the house. I went back te the
house. Robert beat Clyde and
there. Ho walked into the house and
came back screaming, saying there
was a man killed. I broke and
ran Into the house, and look
ed In and saw Mr Mc
Kereher and my mother on the
floor; run out Into the yard and saw
lather. I jumed onto Mr McKvicher'
horse and went down to 1,'ncle Itoliei Is
and told them. Aunt Ollio sent me lo
Grnndma's as scon as I could go.
Coming hack I told Win Myccr. He
came back a portion of the way with
me. Was about a quarter ot a mile
away fiom tho house when I heard tho
shooting, and 1 had then been away
from tho house 25 or 30 minutes. It
was about 4 o'clock. My conversation
with Mr McKercher was.nbout his d ig.
I was trying to trade for it. Whejt I
left the house, father, mother and Mr
McKercher were the only persons at
the house. I recognized tho dead
body of Mr McKercher only by his
horse. I did not notice the gun
although It Is possible I picked It up,
but do not remember doing so; was
badly excited. Cannot account for tlio
deaths. Father and Mr McKercher
were ill a good humor w hen I left.
?amo nearly taking tlio gun with me.
Don't know how many cartridges there
were in the gun; lelt tho gun in the
bed room Had no trouble with my
parents.
The follow lug Items are clipped from
today's Oregonlan:
He told Charles McDowell yesterday
that he picked the gnu up from the
floor and placed it across MoKureher's
logs. Today Iu testimony, ho partly
acknowledged that ho placed the gnu
upon McKercher's body in the posi
tion found.
No motive for the crlnio has been
discovered, and tlio only conclusion
seems to bo that, If It should be proved
the coroner's Jury has pointed out the
slayer of theso threo people In tho pcr-
sou of young Lloyd Montgomery, Btib
sequent events will show that tho
youth's uiltid Is all'ectud and that ho
was laboring under somo fancied
griovnncn, or olso that his net was
simply that of a maniac or an til lot.
IN JAIL AT AI.IIANY,
Special to thollUAltn.

Ho declined to iiiako a statement,
saying he had been directed not to say

coroner's Jury was correct. Oncn
twice this afternoou young
Montgomery, whllo declaring his In
tinccnco, and that ho knew nothing
about who did tho shooting, broke
down and cried In a very disturbed
manner. Ho has not had bis trial yet.
THE NEXT CONTEST.
Will it he at Kale in or Eugene Is
tlio Question.
Salem Statesman: "Willamette
University's aggregation of football
players Is liuprovlngcach shining hour
nowadays getting Iu perfect shapo for
the coming contest on Thanksgiving
day Thursday next wllrt the Uni
versity of Oregon eleven. It has not
yet been definitely settled where I lie
game will bo played. However, It
must be either at Eugono or Salem.
The former lays claim to the first right
by reaaou of none of the luter-collcghito
games for the current year having
been pluycd there. Interested parties
In Salem are endeavoring to rniso a
suitable purse to oiler the association
as an Inducement for the game to bo
kicked oil here. The decision of tho
manager on this matter Is anxiously
awaited."
Fairness anil Justice demands that
the game lie played In Eugene. Then
