I? j(FTotri Sunday's Daily.), '
There . was evidently some, mistake
about the report , brought , to Salem to
the effect that : the people of . Butte
villef and surroundings country had gh
erally. accepted the suicide j theory . In
connection with the mysterious death
bf L. ,B. Saunders which occurred at
that place on" the, night of 'November
lS. It seems there are, many people
hi that section . who still believe that
Mr. Saunders was a victim of foul play
and different facts in connection with
thej : circumstances surrounding., the
death. eertainiy tend to bearl out their
theory. The Aurora. Burealls ia Its is
sue of yesterday, prints a lengthy ar
ticle,, givinjc an account of Liter de
velopments in the ease, and theorizing
as to the posible, identity of the murd
erer,; if murder it really was.
The article follows: :" y.
"Sheriff -Colbath is being severely
criticized by many residents of Butte
ville for his superficial investigation of
the Saunders murder or suicide case
at ButtevUle last week.
If the opinion of the experts at Sa-r
lem, who examined two empty sheels
found ih; the revolver supposed to have
done the deadly work, is correct, that
alone, should have prompted the sher
iff to make a more thorough investiga
tion, for the' experts declared that the
shells had not been discharged recently!
apparently not later than a week ago.
"There arejseveral other things that
indicate foul 1 play. The red handker
chief. Some t.hlnk the murderer might
evidently never belonged to him,, for
neither Mm. Saunders nor anybody else
ever knew him to carry such a handker
chief. Some think the murdered might
have worn the handkerchief as a mask.
and : it ; was torn off hy Mr. Saunders.
The absence of ,the sack in which he
carried his money is also strange.
"The statement made by Mr." Saund
ers last. Wednesday evening, that; he
had seen a; tail. man. having back
whiskers and' wearing a mackintosh
may not have been without foundation,
in view of recent developments Mednes
day evening. Nov. 18. Arthur Kraus
met a tall man wearing a long mackin
tosh, and going in diection of Butte,
vllle. It wjas about 8 o'clock and too
dark to distinguish features. The next
morning Hi D. Evans, of Butteville, on
his, way to this city with the milk
wagon, overtook a rather tall man, hav
ing dark straggling whiskers and wear
ing a long (mackintosh. The man Was
a perfect stranger to Mr. Evans and
apparently came from Butteville. ;
"In view: of the fact that the general
description; tallies with that of the rob
ber who visited the Schueles west of
this city a., few weeks ago. it may be
the fellow grown bold . by hls success.
had decided to try it again. If the sus
picion as to the identity of the fellow
who robbed the Schueles :1s correct
and there is little doubt of it the
same fellow may have met Mr. Saund
ers in Portland . a few days before and
found out he had money."
The report In regard to the conditicn
of the , two empty shells found In , th
revolver from, which the fatal shot is
supposed to have been fired, was correct
The shells were brought ,to Salem by
"Joroner Clough on ; the evening of
the day he Inquest jpcas held at But-
leviiie. and upon examination, which
was made immediately after the coro
ner's arrival iij this city, it was found
that both shells w ere dry. and corrodesd
to. such an extent that they had turned
perfectly green upon the inide, a con
dition which experts declare positively
could hot exist had the shells been fired
within tjhe previous twenty-four hours.
