The dead are: Sheriff J. W . W illia m s , Deputy Sheriff James Larners and Charles W il lard. Deputy Sbeiiff A . E. M ille r waa shot in the leg. I t was considered certain hy every one that the burning of the oottage waa for tlie purpose of concealing a rob bery. and suspicion pointe,! to Charles W illard as the guilty person, particu larly aa he was seen a aliort tim e after the fire coming from the locality w ith a wheelbarrow load of goods. Aoting on the suspicion then aroused Sheriff W illiam s this morning secured a search w arrant, and in oonrpany w ith 8enator C. W. Fulton and others, went to Seaside to search W illa rd ’s prem ises, and also all the cottages of which he had charge during the w inter season. About 8 o ’clock this afternoon, Sher iff W illiam s, Senator Fulton and Dep uties A . E M ille r and Jamea Larners, the two latter being residents of Sea side, went to the cottage of Mrs. Susie Lewixton, where W illa rd waa livin g , to eearch it. On rapping at the door they were answers,] im m ediately by W illa rd , who told them to w a it n n til hedreeeed, but from subsequent events it is certain be wanted tim e to get hia gnna ready for action. A fte r a few momenta ha opened the door, and on lieing told w hat was wanted, told tlie sheriff, in a polite manner, that he was wel,ome to search any of the residences in Iris cha rge. Leaving F ulton, L am er* and the sheriff in the bouse, lie picked up hia rifle, and telling M ille r to follow him , he started for John L. Carlson’scuttage which he had in charge, and which ha ■aid some one had endeavored to break into. There they were soon afterwards joined bv W illiam s and Fulton. The latter asked W illa rd to come back to the Lewiston cottage. He made no objection. I t was on nea>ing the cottage the second tim e that tlie tragedy occurred. Senator Fulton had identified soma shotgun cartridge« in tlie liousd^as be longing to him , and began questioning W illa rd ns to where he got possession of them. This nettled W illa rd , al though he answered that a friend had given them to him , and he began to get »giy. Fulton and M ille r went inside the cottage, leaving W illa rd . Sheriff W il liams and Larners standing outside. They had just proceeded to tire rear room when two shots were hear«! in quick snooeesion, and on running to he door, Sheriff W illia m s waa seen to throw up bia Lands and fall backwards over the bank. In front of the bouse were W illa rd and Larners, in a desper ate hand-te hand struggle, although the latter had been shot through tlie right groin and was fast growing faint, and hia assailant was fighting w ith toe desperation of a demon. Fulton sprang at W illa rd ’s head, and p allin g lrim to the ground jumped on bis face. M ilia r wrenched the rifle from hia hand.threw it on the ground, and taking out hia revolver beat the desperado over the head. Senator Fulton, in the meantime, picked up the rifle and told W illard to remain quiet, or he would k ill him . The latter, however, watched his op portunity, and jum ping to bia feet started to run away, when Fulton fired, missing him the first tim e, but s trik ing him in the face the second tim e, carrying away the greater poition of his mouth and nose. W illa rd fell, ap parently dead, and Fulton started to obtain help to care for the injured men, leaving M ille r on guard w ith the rifle in hand. M ille r stepped hack to aid Larners, who was lying on tlie ground desperately wounded, when W illa rd waa noticed to be fum bling w ith Ida belt. Q uicker than a flash he drew a revolver and fired three bullets, the first one h ittin g M ille r in the left leg, just below the hip. M ille r returns,! the fire w ith the rifle, the first bullet inflicting a flesh wound in W illa rd ’s shoulder, and the second h itting him in the left side, near tlie groin, k illin g him instantly. By thia tim e help hnd arrived, and an examination was made of t!ie in jured men. Sheriff W illia m s was found to have been shot tlirough the rig id breast, and although Ids puls* was beating feebly when examined, lie showed no further signs of Id«.
