Among the busiest people in the city on
Saturday were the messenger boys of the
American District Telegraph Company.
Enough extra boys had been employed TO
increase the force to tfty-fye. but calls
came in at such rate during the after
noon that the clerk could not take them
of the register fast enough and many of
them were lost. Altogether about 900
calls were answered during the day and
$50 more were lost. The same force was at
work yesterday and managed 10 keep ur

MELTON AND DUNLAP CASE.
How the Bond was Fixed. Date OF
Withdrawal of Reward.

There has been some misunder-
standing about the method of fixing
the bonds of Melton and Dunlap and
to put everybody right The NEWS
publishes the facts in the case:
Chick McLennan was killed March
3 1891 and on March IL the grand
Jury indicted W. F. Melton and Rufe
Dunlap for the killing, Every effort
was made to capture the parties and
in addition to his personal efforts
Sheriff Ford offered reward of 500
for their arrest as a stimulsnt to de.
tective action on the part of sheriffs
and constables over the state. Melton
and Dunlap eluded every pursuer and
alter neatly ten months had elaps
ed since the tragedy, county attorney
Joe w. Taylor received notice from
friends of the accused that they de-
sired to surrender and would do so if
their bond could be fixed. Mr.. Taylor
Immediately reported the matter to
Messrs. Pearre & Boynton, who had
been engaged to assist in the prose-
cution, and Mr.. Boynton ccmmuni.
cate d the fact to Messrs. Alexander
& Campbell, also engaged to assist in
the prosecution, and these eminent at,
torneys all agreed that as every effort
to capture the men had failed the best
plan would be for fhe county attorney
TO submit to the court that the case
was, in his judgment, bailable and
recommend that the court fix the bond.
Tho court decided to adopt the recon-
mendation of the county attorney,
and the amount of the bond was de-
cided by agreement between County
Attorney Joe w. Taylor and Hon.
George Clark, counsel for de-
PENDANTS. Having thus agreed tt
the amount of the bond, the
court entered the following on the
docket opposite the rames of defend
ants: December %, 1891, bail fixed
by consent at $4,000 each"
81 eriff Ford knew nothing of this
at the time and, indeed, says he die

upon which day he came to IHE

"The reward of $500, heretofore
offered for the arrest of Melton anc

Chick McLennaD, is hereby with
