Two Hiawatha Japanese Killed Gun Battle Tuesday Night' In R. Seiki and D. Imai, Japanese, were killed Tuesday night about 9 oclock at Hiawatha in what was either a double murder or murder and suicide. Details of the shooting as reconstructed later by Sheriff S. Marion Bliss and Deputy Warren Peacock, are about as follows: Seiki and Imai, partners in the mine at Hiawatha, started signing in the formers house about 9 oclock Tuesday evening. Shortly afterwards, someone started shooting at Imai with a .32 calibre automatic revolver. Several shots were fired in the house, then Imai ran from the house and climbed the steps of the next house where several more shots were fired at him. He was hit six times, three of the shots penetrating the abdomen. One shot lodged in the left groin, one in the left hand and the sixth hit him in the left ear. He was dead when found. Seiki was found in his house with a bullet wound in the left breast, evidently inflicted with a .38 calibre revolver. The smaller revolver was found in the room with Seiki with six of the chambers discharged. Seiki lived forty-five minutes after Sheriff Bliss arrived on the scene but was unable to talk. The use of the two revolvers seems to preclude the murder and suicide theory; consequently all Japanese of the camp were questioned. They professed ignorance, however, and refused to give any information. A coroner a jury was empaneled late yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon to investigate the ease. Fire-Bu- g At Large With Numerous Blazes' Growing suspicions of the operation fire-bu- g in Price were confirmed Tuesday night when four blazes broke out in the business district, three of which were undoubtedly of incendiary origin. The first fire was in the rear of the Rice Studio at about 8 oclock. The blase was confined to a packing case in which were old papers and pieees of wood. The blase was immediately extinguished with no appreciable loss. The second blaze was discovered in the bowling alley beneath the Carbon Hardware company. Inasmuch as this place has not been occnpied for several months and the electrical wiring haa been ent and disconnected since the fire there s few weeks ago, last nights blaze is believed to have been set. Ten minutes later, a fire was noticed in the Solo Cigar store. It was confined to papers and rags in back of the bar on the cement floor. It was extinguished before it did much damage. At 4 oclock in the morning, the apparatus was again called out, this time to the Davis Auto. and Machine company where an automobile in the rear of the building was burning. A careful investigation of the fire leads officials to the conclusion that it was A car standing set by some fire-bunext to the blazing one was damaged somewhat and the total loss is estimated at $200. of a g.
