VANCOUVER, B. C., Oct. 24—Two
of the leading rum runners of Seat
tle spent the week-end in this city
conferring with representatives of lo
cal liquor exporting firms a*hd owners
of boats ,and as a result a pact has
been formed to kill on sight three men
whom the rum runners appear to be
convinced were the men who murder
ed W. J. Gillis and his son, William.
' Gillis and his son, William were in
the liquor carrying business operating
their gas boat the Beryl G. between
the ipother ship Comet near Flattery
and Darcy island.
On October 18, Gillis boat was dis
covered adrift not far from Darcy is
land, with blood all over the forward
and aft decks, down the companion
way and on blankets in the bunk. A
cap belonging to the boy was found
with blood around the inside of the
leather band.
Since no word has been received
from Gillis and his son, the police de
cided they were murdered.
A link of the anchor chain had been
sawed through and the anchor with
a piece of chain is missing, the theory
of the police being Gillis and his son
were taken unawares, murdered and
their own anchor used to weight the
bodies down when thrown overboard.
As soon as the rum runners were
certain that Gillis had been killed, the
Canadianrunners detailed a committee
to make a complete search of the
shores of nearby islands for the
dinghy which was also missing.
Several days before Gillis’ boat was
picked up three men known by the
rum runners to have been in several
hijacking parties last winter wrere
seen in Puget Sound waters headed
for Canada.
Canadian rum runners canvassed all
bays and points where the Canadian
boats meet the American carriers, and
have become convinced that this trio
of old time hijackers committed the
crime.
A meeting was held in Seattle of
the Puget Sound runners with the re
sult that representatives came here
for a conference, and the meeting here
decided to shoot on sight these men
who are held responsible for such a
serious crime.
One of the Seattle men said on
leaving the meeting Sunday, “We
owe it not only to Gillis but to the
wife and family of every man in the
trade to rid the seas of such ruthless
pirates and we will do it.”
Liquor carrying boats leaving here
during the past week have been ex
ceptionally well armed and armor plate
cages that were in vogue on these
boats a year ago, have been revived.
The rum runner has a chance to put
his head above the plate and take a
shot at the hijacker while the invader
can only rattle his bullets against the
plate.
The killing of Gillis and his son is
considered by the rum runners to be
the worst catastrophy that has befal
len the traffic in these w’aters.
W. E. Rloultray was a returning
passenger on the Admiral Watson
from Latouche and southern ports.
Mr. Moultray will leave on tomor
row’s boat for the States, where he
will visit for a few months.
Twenty-one first class passengers
arrived on the Starr, and seven steer
age. Among the passengers were
Mr. Jones of Uyak, and the men from
his cannery.
