STORY OF THE sHERIFFs.
How and Why Alonzo Kilby Was
Killed the Other Day.
Especial to Inter ,Mountain.)

ApPGSidl " Iulci iuIouHtdlH.J
Billings, Jan. 2.-The body of Alonzo
Kilby, the outlaw killed by the sheriff s
posse Sunday in the northwestern part
of the county, was brought to Billings
yesterday after being met by the mother
of the dead man and brother-in-law,
who resides at Columbus. The body was
prepared for burial by the local UNDER
taker and buried here.
Under Sheriff Sayles, who was mem
ber of the posse that kiIed Kilby and
captured young Huffman, says Kilby
was lying in wait for an opportunity to
kill some Of the posse, having evidently
singled out Deputy Sheriff Harding who
had been hot on the trail for over a
week. One shot fired by Kilby struck a
member of the posse, just grazing his
face, but 1t was enough for the posse to
see that Kilby was desperate and did
not mean to be taken without showing
fight.
The two men were hidden behind
rocks In a coulee. Huffman was with
out weapon of any kind. When the
posse came upon the camp of Kilby and
Huffman after the shooting they found
all kinds of bedding and clothing which
the two had stolen from the sheep
camps in the Musselshell section.

of the debate In the house on the Nj

spoke earnestly In advocacy of It's pas
sage. He believed the Eads Tehaunte-
pee route was preferable to any which
had been proposed, but he did not think
the present time for cavil. He did not
like the Panama route, but IL the propo-
sition OF the Panama company offered
advantages over the Nicaragua route, he
thought the president should have the al
ternative authority to accept 1t.
III you favor this bill" interposed Mr..
Barthold OF Missouri, why Is 1t that
your democratic colleagues from Mis-
8 ouri at the last session "oted against
a similar bill?"

"the bill at the last session was passed
