LOUIS HOSPITAL Reloading Revolver, Slayer Returns - To Finish M urder And is Captured. (pcial ta the Journal.) ST. LGftflSJune 10. Dr. D. Winton Dunn, fr.mer Mayor of Duquoin, III., died at fiherMisseari Baptist Sanitarium today -from a pistol shot wound inflicted last nighjby' Jesse Joplin, at Duquoin. Joplin-was arrested immediately after the shooting! and was taken to 'Piflcjcney yille, the" county seat of Perry County, and lodged mjaili' ,; v'Two hours after, 'the shooting Div Dunn was placed' aboard a special train aad, hurried-to this cky, where it was hopid a hirnl surgical operation might save , On his way to jail Joplin told the offi cials who had him in custody that he had intended to kill Dr. Dunn, and if thepoctor did not die from the wounds, and he (Joplin) ever got'out of jail, he would kill the doctor, on sight. . Joplin's grievance against Dr. Dunn was that the. physician had refused to treat a child of Joplin's because an old bill contracted by Joplin had not been paid. Son Tells bf Tragedy. Theodore Dunn, a clothing merchant in puquoin, a son of the physician, ac companied his father to St'. Louis, and related the details of the tragedy. Dr- Dunn, who had a suite of offices that occupied the entire second floor of the Odd Fellows' Building, in the busi ness center of Duquoin, was seated at his desk' at 8:30 o'clock Saturday night when Joplin entered without being an nounced. : Joplin carried a revolver, but was quite calm. "Im going to kill you," he said to Dr. Dunn. "I have come for that purpose, and I am going to send you where you belong." The doctor was more than sixty year- old, and he knew he was no matchi phy sically for Joplin, who is thirty-five and muscularly built. In an effort to dis tract Joplin's attention the doctor arose and talking as he crossed the room he reached Joplin's side before the latter made any other hostile move. Suddenly Dr. Dunn seized the open door, at the same instant giving Joplin a shove, and swung it to with all his might. As the door slammed Joplin found himself On the outside. Fires Through the Door. Dr Dunn had no time to move before Joplin opened fire through the door. The revolver contained six cartridges and Joplin did not cease firing until the wea pon was emptied. The bullets pene trated the door and each bullet took ef fect. The first one broke the right arm of Dr. Dunn. Two penetrated the ab domen, two took effect in the chest and one struck him in the left shoulder. Joplin did not pause to see the effect of his shots. He left the building with out opening the door to the office or calling to the doctor.. j Motive for the Crime. . Theodore Dunn chartered a special train on the Illinois Central, and with his mother and sister,, Mrs. A, Leonard, came to St. Louis. . It was not until tonight that the mo tive for .the killing became known.. Jop lin in threatening Dr. Dunn did not tell him why he was .to be shot.- ::-: :. From other sources it,. was learned that a. number of vyeara ago- Dr. Dunn had treated Joplirt aftd 'had been unable to collect the, bill.. He placed the' ac count in; the; hands of a collector, and it was .;because-j0f the, pressing of this claim that J oplinfirst .became angry. Then his hild became ill and Dr. Dunn declined to treat it; Joplin .formed the determination to be revenged for what he considered an injury ' V ) NEW BERN NOT DR V"1N EVERY, ' - New .'

State Executive Committee To Meet At Raleigh Chairman T. D. Warren The Call. Issues JUNE 26 IS DATE SET Hon. Charles R. Thomas Will Be On Hand To Make A Protest. T. D. Warren, chairman of the State Democratic Executive Committee yes terday issued a call for a meeting of that organization to be held in the senate chamber of th3 capitol at Ral eigh, at 8:30, o'clock, P. M., June 26. This will be a meeting of the new committee chosen on June 4, and the prime object of the meeting is to select a chairman and a secretary. However, other business of importance will be brought up before the committee at that time. s Among these other matters will be the protest of Hon. Charles R. Thomas, who claims that he was euchred out of the nomination at the recent dis trict convention held at Goldsboro at which time "(although the convention was called to canvass the ballots of the recent 'primary and not to nomina te a candidate) George E. Hood of Goldsboro was nominated as congress man from this district. Mr Thomas has a strong backing in his protest beora the committee and his hundreds of friends all over the Third,' District are assuring him that they' will use every effort to see that he get3 a square deal. Among about twenty other contentions which will be made by Mr. Thomas will be a citation to the preferential primary rules, Showing that the convention had no right to nominate a candidate, their work being to count the ballots and that they violated all party prin cipal in taking the action which they did The matter is being pretty well ad vertised all over the" State and public sentiment is with Mr. Thomas and there is every reason to believe that the com mittee will take favorable action on his protest. r ' RA.fJPj PROGRESS ON NEW MARK'S BUILDING ) 1 -The .' walls of the new three story Mj's building, on .Middle:; street, have ben ,. completed and the wood work on the intsrior- of, tha 'building is rapidly being pushed to a finish. ; .
