ON TWO CHARGES
William {. Gray Arrested for
ENLIGHTENMENT and Forgery
WAS "A GROCERY CLERK
Wanted at RushviIIe Illinois
for Old Crime.

VIM. L. Gray, who was arrested here
last week on the charge Of embezzling
money while in the employ Of Stewart
the grocer on East Douglas, had another
charge put against him yesterday by
telegram from Rushville, I'LL, and he Is
wanted there for forgery. Gray has been
in Wichita, for nearly a year and a half,
and was formerly employed by o. H.
Tewmey. Some months ago he was en-
ployed by Mr. Stewart, whose store Is
on East Douglas avenue beyond Mos
lev avenue, as clerk and delivery
wagon man. Nr. Stewart In a short time
began to notice queer shortage in cash
collections and suspicioned Gray. After
some investigation Mr.. Stewart found
that Gray was embezzling and the young
man did not deny 1t when charged.
The officers learned in some way that
GRAY was wanted in Illinois and In re-
Spouse to inquiries telegram came yes
terday to the chief of police to arrest
Gray at once for forgery. Nothing is
known as to the Illinois crime. In all
probability 1t is a big amount, or he
would not be followed to Kansas with re-
QUESTION papers.
Gray is about IS years old and single.
In his talk to acquaintance since he
came here he admitted that he had to
leave Illinois on account OF some trouble
but he claimed to have killed a man.
The forgery probably explains the' real
trouble which he often mentioned.

FOR NUMBERING HIS WIFE
CattIeman :TclIs of "A Strange COwIey
County Case,


Mr. H F. Parker, a c3ttleman who
lives in Comanche county. was in Wichi-
ia yesterday on his way home from a
trip through southeastern Kansas. Mr..
Parker was at Atlanta, a small town in
Cowley county. when Mrs. Chas. Fisher
was found dead in her house with bull
let in her head. There was great excite
ment about the matter, which was only
increased when suspicion attached Mrs.
Fisher husband. A big crowd went to
the coroner's inquest and people seemed
to be satisfied when Fisher was ordered
under arrest. Fisher tells this story,
about which is a clipping from the Win
field Courier. Mr.. Parker had saved:
FISHERS story is inconsistent AMI weak
IN several places and there is no doubt
in the minds of the officers as to his
guilt His story as told on the witness
stand was that he and his wife were
awake about. 4 o'clock yesterday morn
ing when he got up and went out doors.
When he came in they talked few min
utes, when his wife got up and went out
She soon came running in and called:
Papa, there Is a man out in the yard
watching me- She was standing in the
door and he started toward her. but turn
ed to go back after his gun. whenthe
man, who was standing about thirty feet
away. fired. the bullet striking Mrs.
Fisher squarely between the eyes. She fell
backwards and he made a dash into the
yard but the man had disappeared. He
then returned TO the house and listened
10 hear IL his wifes heart was beating.
She was dead and he made no further
examination of her wounds. One of the
children years old then woke and COM
menced to cry and 1t took him about
half an hour TO quiet her. He then went
TO the home of a neighbor, a half mile
away. and gave the alarm.
Under tho cross questioning by Conn
~ Attorney Hargis he got the story
mixed in several places. Instead of half
an hour it was in fact more than an hour
after the murder until he went to call a
neighbor. The flesh near the wound
showed unmistakable signs of powder
burn which could not have been made
by a gun thirty feet away Blood was
found on the bed clothes and his pistol.
although full Of cartridges, had evidently
been recently fired. They have three
children. but the oldest. y years. was not
at home the night of the murder. The
children are now with her parents. who
live near the scene Of the murder, about
four miles northwest of Atlanta.
FlSRer Is comparatively a stranger in
mat community and but little is known
about him. He formerly lived near White
Rock o. T.. and came there from ives
terp Kansas. He had a crop OF wheat
near White Rock which he had just fin
tshed harvesting and threshing. He re-
turned from White Rock Saturday Of last
week and spent most of Sunday and ALI
OF Monday loafing around Atlanta. He
moved to the farm he now occupies last
March. having lost his claim near White
Rock in a contest.
