Felter, 50 years old, was struck on the head with an ax by two high waymen yesterday afternoon, receiving injuries which resulted in his death two hours later at the receiving hospital. The assault took place shortly b.-rore 6 o'clock. After the men had knocked Felter unconscious, they threw him Into the basement of the store build- Ing and stole a tin box confining a large amount of money from a secret hiding place. A cash register contain ing $15 was not touch' d. That the men wire acquainted with Felter and were aware of the fact that he had considerable money in the store Is evidenced by the fact that they w< vi able to locate the tin box. According to the police, the men were Identified by six witnesses as Lewis Deck and Loe Candelero of 1524 East Twenty-tilth Street. Descriptions were furnished the patrolmen from University station and a dragnet spread over the neighbor hood, but the men could not be located. The men entered the store shortly after 6 o'clock and started a conversa tion with Felter. Finally they walked to the rear of the store. According to six boys who were playing in front of the store at the time and were eye •witnesses to the holdup, one of the men picked tat> an ax and after threatening Felter struck him on the head, causing a. deep gash on his head and a frac ture of his skull, and rendering him unconscious. Before Felter was struck the boys relate him as saying: "Please don't kill me. You can have my money." After knocking him to the floor the br.ndits threw his body in the basement and then secured the box containing the money and made their escape through a rear door. How much money was contained In the box is not known, as Felter was not married and had few companion?. Miss Esther Martin, who is said by the police to be a woman companion of Deck, was arested on suspicion late last night and taken to central police headquarters. She will be used as a witness against Deck and Candelere in case they are arrested. The body of Felter was removed to the John R. Paul undertaking parlors, where efforts are being made to locate his relatives. Until they are located funeral arrangements will not be made. MORMON WOMAN DIES SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. I.—Lucy W.
