Slayer of Two Miners Died With

Seattle, Wash, Feb. 9-"Boys, string me
up if you like; but, remember, you are
hanging the sleadiest man with six-shoot-
ers that ever came out of Montana. You
say it is all right to hang me, and I guess
it is; I am only sorry that did not get
the rest of them"
With these words Doc Tanner faced the
executioners on the morning of Jan. 2, at
Valdes Pass.
The men who passed sentence on him
were members of a party of Massachu-
sets prospectors bound for the Copper
river country. Alaska, and the crime for
which Tanner paid the penalty was tho
killing of N. A. Gall of Worthington,
Mimi, and William E. Lee of Lowell,
Mass.
The expedition consisted of forty men,
and NJ. F. Tanner had joined them in
Seattle on their way to the north. He
was supplied with an outfit and taken
into membership, but, unmindful of that
fact, he was quarrelsome and SO overbear-
ing that his competitions decided that he
must leave the party 90
on the evening of Jan meeting was
held in Calls tent and during the confer
ence a statement was made:
I've must get rid of Tanner; let him
take his share of the outfit and shift for
himself We are up here for business and
we mean what we say"

no sooner had the remark been made than
the flap of the little tent was pulled aside
The cowboy stood there, six-shooter in
hand.
Boys, I overhead your talk about me-

Before his victims realized what had
happened Tanner had shot twice and the
bullets pierced Gall and Lee through the
chest Tanner fired again, but his preced-
ing shot had eXtinguished the candle and
the bullet did not take effect One of the
remaining members crouched down behind
some baggage and the other, cutting his
way out of the tent gave the alarm. Tan

took station in some brush ana waited
1t was not long before he was surrounded
You'd better surrender your gun" was
called out to him
IF you say so, boys, Tn do it," was his
response, and then he handed over his
weapon.
The miners then convened and by an
overwhelming majority decided that Tan
ner should be hanged. There was some
discussion over the question of shooting
him, but the majority decided on the rope
When notified of the decision, Tanner
observed that he hoped they would not
tantalize him by stringing him up and
letting him down again before he was
dead. He was led out into the snow dur
ing the early morning. He fearlessly al
lowed the rope to be tied about his neck
and so met his doom.
Tanner was buried face downward
A. G. Lobbe of San Francisco, who wit
