EICK ADAMS. the outlaw who has
L. been keeping some Of our citi-
zenS in an uneasy frame Of mind for a
year or two. was brought here on
cot Sunday afternoon from Sapulpa
by y. NJ. Lewis, a deputy marshal.
Since his last exploit in this section
he has lost his right arm even wit h
the shoulder, result of resisting cap
ture and it looks veSy much as though
his career as ''Tustler'' was practi-
cally at an end, laying aside the fact
that he is in the clutches of Uncle
sam. To Sam RidenhOur. at that
time deputy, who he knocked down
and made his escape from, Adams
said that he did not know what he
was arrested fOr-that he was shot
without warning Of any kind: he fur
ther said he thought he would get
well ii the doctors did not Kill him.
Adams, it will be remembered, was
the ''main guy in BuningtOn'S lane
ambuScade, into which he was led
with one OF his partners, Elihu Lynn,
by confederate named Picket. while
they were driving Off some of Or. L.
b. Frayser's cattle. Lynn,waS killed
but Adams made his escape. Since
that.time Picket killed u negro at
Chelsea aad disappeared, and hence
il is not clear Just how Adams can be
convicted Of cattle stealing. He was
taken to MUskOgee jail on Sunday
evenings train.

HEIRS HAVING A FIGHT.
Administration of an Estate the
Cause of n Legal Battle.

The administration of the estate of
the late Mana Catherine Fetzer, Of this
city, is causing no little turmoil among
the heirs.
Soon after the death of Mrs. Fetzer,
her son-in-law, Peter Kellerman, hus-
band of the second Oldest daughter,
took out letters of administration. This
was not agreeable to others of the heirs
and Frederick Fetzer. the oldest son,
petitioned court for the removal of his
brOther-in-law and the appointment
of himself instead. He set forth in Lis
petition that there are six children in
all, himself, Mrs. Catherine Wirth, Mrs.
Elizabeth Kellerman, Carolina Fetzer
Charlotte Chase and John p. Chase;
that the deceased possessed iarSl
estate; that Kellerman is not III
person to manage the estate and that
kellerman secured letters of adminis-
traton without the advice or consent
pt the other heirs.
a hearing on the petition was con-
Quoted yesterday morning by Deputy
Register James II. Hopkins and during
the taking of testimony there were sew
eral very lively periods. This was
particularly true when the defense Of
fered evidence to prove that the pc.
titioner was a drinking man and unfit
for a trustworthy position. Fetzer
grew very indignant at this insinuation
tc do dire things to his accusers.
Mr.. Lowry appeared for the petition
and Mr.. Taylor for the defense.

INQUEST IN THE EVANS CASE.
Verdict That Was Returned by the
COrOner's Jury.

The coroner's jury in the case of Eliz-
abeth d. Evans who died by her own
hand Sunday night, July %. met at
Coroner Longstreet's office last night
and returned a verdict simply stating
that Mrs. Evans "came to her death by
hanging herself with a rope"
The testimony of John Hunden, son
of the deceased by her first husband
was very touching and deeply affected
the witness during its recital. He told
how he on that fatal night had Won
dered why the door of his mothers
room was locked; he managed to place
his hand inside and felt her cold face
Then he realized the awful act.
Mr.. Hunden stated that in his opln-
ion the cause OF the suicide was that
his mother thought that she was lin
the way" Her second husband died
about nine months ago and since then,
although the family did everything for
her comfort, she became melancholy
and depressed.
John Davis, constable of the Fourth
ward, and hrother-in-law to Mr.. Hun
den, also gave testimony. The Jurors
