May 7, 1907
Los Angeles
Jesse C. Cowd, of 187 South Broadway, told cops he was shot in the groin in the rear toilet-room of the Southern Hotel saloon at Market and Main...when an unidentified stranger dropped a revolver and it discharged on the floor. Cops don't buy the story--the trail of blood leads from the cigar stand in front of the saloon where there had been a quarrel over a dice game. Despite there having been a large crowd at the time, there were, of course, no witnesses.
