Morning Oregonian September 23, 1904
Irwin Said To Have Been Shot Near Ballard's Landing
Baker City,Or,Sept.22-(Special)- A report comes from Haines late this evening 
that Sheriff Brown and posse have had an encounter with Barker and irwin late 
this afternoon on Snake River near Ballard's Landing and that Irwin was shot.
It was impossible to confirm this rumor this evening as all the lines of 
telephone communication leading intot he country where the Sheriff is supposed 
to be closed at 8 o"clock.It is known,however,that when the Sheriff left 
yesterday he had a pretty good clew as to the direction the men were 
traveling,also their destination.If this information was correct,it is not 
improbable that the Sheriff came up with them in the nighborhood of Ballrd's 
Landing on Snake River.
