DEATH QUIZ NARROWS TO TWO SUSPECTS fwciteUosiery Hi Race Entries Escape aS Police at Scene of Leask Murder Girl Dies As Flames Deliberate Trap May Have Been Set For Leask Farmer Fouquette Buried as Police Pursue Investigation of Murder; Victim's Skull Crushed, Pathologist Discovers By Staff Reporter LEASK, July 30. Their list of suspects narrowed and qualified Royal Canadian Mounted Police investigating the death of Ernest Fouquette, who was murdered here Sunday morning, today directed their attention to the theory that at least two men were involved in the killing. Fouquette whose skull was literally crushed to bits was hit at least twice and post mortem examination also showed his nose was broken and one tooth knocked out.

Following a post mortem examination of the body Monday evening by Dr. Frances McGill, provincial pathologist, police had an all night vigil at the home of two suspects west of here, returning to town after daybreak. They failed to find anything important, although it is understood they have in their possession clothing belonging to Nick Grovu, which they will have thoroughly examined.

J. Des-Rosiers, In charge of the case, this morning admitted it was possible Fouquette had been deliberately trapped at the rear of the hardware store where the body was found. Doctor McGill, after her autopsy, eaid Fouquette never moved a step following the savage blow which cleaved his skull. In all her experience she had never seen a head so badly battered, she said. It had been expected that an inquest would open Monday night but police decided not to make public any information they had and are still seeking the weapon used to slay the 62-year-old farmer whose death followed a long period of squabbling with his family and relatives.

This morning police questioned Cecille Fouquette at great length. Miss Fouquette, daughter of the Yl dead man, returned to Leask with I her father Saturday from Saskatoon where she had been staying at the Y.W.C.A.

Police and firemen dragged the river for another body to make sure there was no other man. The Injured men were taken to St. Paul's Hospital after their rescue from the submerged car and emergency treatment at the filtration plant. They were: James "Blondy" Stevenson, 2 Brandon Block, the driver of the car, who was allowed to leave hospital after receiving treatment for minor injuries; W. E.

"I didn't realize there had been an accident until after we touched the wnter," he told a reporter. "The feel of the water brought me to and I started to neip the other men from the car." he stated.

Traditions of the soarlet-coatcd force were upheld here Sunday night when a lone Royal Canadian Mounted Policeman faced a howling, stone-throwing mob and finally cowed the crowd into dispersing. Brandishing his flashlight, which he had al ready used as a club when attacked, and drawing his service revolver, the policeman, Constable Gordon Stronach of Vonda, stood his ground until the fuss ended. FELLS ASSAILANT For several minutes Stronach was obliged to face a shower of stones and sticks hurled by the In furiated crowd which poured out of the Community Hall In front of which the fray started. Others In the crowd whirled heavy clubs about their heads and yelled defiance at the officer. The disturbance started when the constable stood in front of the hall inspecting, in the light of his flashlight, the faces of thnBe who entered the building where a dance was In progress.

As he flashed the light on Joe Kobel and Steve Stuser, two residents of the district, Kobel allegedly struck at him. The constable hit Kobel on the head with the flashlight, felling him. Immediately, Stuser allegedly launched an attack on the policeman. Eye-witnesses said that Constable Stronach seized his second assailant, shook him "like a rat shaking a mouse," and then threw him to the ground. In the fall, Stuser suffered a broken collar bone when he struck a board sidewalk.

Then a crowd of men poured out of the dance hall. Apparently 85 per cent of them were in sym pathy with their defeated townsmen. At once, howling their ruga, they picked up whatever missiles were handy and began pelting the the wall of the hall. With his revolver and flashlight covering the crowd, he ordered them to move off. For a few moments the crowd paused and then they began to drift away, until all had aiKpersea.

Whether any arrests had been made or not could not be aacer-! tained this morning as the mutter wss still under Investigation. An orchestra from Wakaw which whs at Alvena to play for the dance suffered considerable loss, One window of its automobile was broken and an overcoat and cap stolen from the vehicle. All the gasoline in the tank was also! taken. The disturbance was the climax of a sports dsy which had begun In the afternoon. The constable closed the Community Hull after the crowd had dispersed.

Two other occupants of the two story house, Herbert and Floyd Fair-brother, 18 and 20, escaped by jumping from a second-storey window, the former receiving severe cuts on his feet and burns. JUMP FOR 1JVES The fire broke out between midnight and 1 o'clock this morning while Holmes was absent, cutting hay at another farm In the vicinity.

The two boys were awakened by smoke after midnight. Flnyd tried to awaken Rose Cooper but was unable to get to her room because of TURN TO PAGE COLUMN 1.

RUST DEVELOPS RAPIDLY In the southeastern Regina-Wey-burn and east central areas wheat stands ar generally heavy.

Rust, however, is present in a great many places in this part of the Province and its development in the southern portion of this area has been rapid and some severe losses In yield are anticipated, while at other places the crop outrun depends upon the weather between now and harvest good yields In many parts being In prospect if future weather conditions piove unfavorable to rust development. In the south central, central and northeastern districts crops are generally reported good although in Eeveral places where reserves are low the crops would be greatly benefitted by more moisture. In southwestern and west central Saskatchewan moisture conditions throughout the season have shown considerable variation and as a result In some of the more easterly and northerly portions crop prospects range from fair to good, while in the area adjacent to the Alberta boundary and in many sections of the southwest, crops are generally reported from poor to practically TURN TO PAGE 8.

Mayor's Proposal Meets With Favor Mayor Plnder's proposal to deepen and flood the Hudson Bay slough, creating an artificial lake, the work to be undertaken as an unemployment relief project, had already received the commendation of many citizens who believe a resort of this nature would be an 'asset to the city.

A few today told the mayor they though it would be a "foolish" expenditure of money, but the opponents were greatly In the minority. Commendation of the proposal came as a result of a request by the mayor for suggestions for relief works projects. Some have gone on record as opposed to works programs of any nature. Others favor development of the Chubb farm by creating a second Bowness park, while still others believe money could be well spent In development of Yorath Island.
