was promptly returned, Sutton falling

This the List.
Mitchell kept up his murderous fusil-
ade until he had fired six shots. The
result was that in addition to Sutton be-
ing killed, Milton Sparks was shot to
death and Dan Gleason, an omnibus
driver, also lies dead. Mrs. SPARKS, wife
of the murdered man. was badly
wounded, as'was also Il child she car
ried. A brother of Sparks was mortally
wounded and Mrs. Mcdowell, an aged
lady, received one of the bullets, and her
