Tom melvin Raises Troable IN gail
Yesterday Morning.

-
Ton Melvin, who is in jail for
killing Elijah Myers, while serving
as policeman, created a big dis.
turbance In the bastile yesterday
morning. There were three In
mates, ard Jailer Stint permitted
them to stay together instead of
con6uing them In seperate cells.
Someone carried and passed liquor
into Melvin and be proceeded to
load up. AFTER getting 'tanked"
he proceeded TO terrcr.ze his COM
paniops by threatening their lives
and acting 10 a menacing manner,
with a big Ratchet to back up his
threats: The iailer was unable to
subdue him and the sheriff and po-
lice were called Ia TO assist Ia quel
Ing his boisterousness. He was
placed In a close cell and will be
allowed to remain there until his
trial In June. Last evening the jail
was searched and a saw and two re
volvers were found. The latter
were In Melvin's trunk. and the
saw was hidden In an obscure cor.
ner In the cell. Sam Spencer was
arrested for giving him the liquor,
and will be tried this morning on
that charge. Ed Fitzgerald, a
driller, was arrested by the sheriff
last evening and lodged In jail on
the charge of giving Melvin the
saw. The time had not been set
for his trial. O,her parties will be
arrested, suspicioned with being
implicated with Fitzgerald.-St.
