Fort Dodge. Sept. 19.-Ray Howard.
alleged to be highwayman, was twice
fired upon and wounded in both legs by
Policeman Ed Clay, in attempting to
make his escape when placed under ar
rest by the officer last night. One bull
let passed thru the calf of his left leg,
and the other struck him in the right
ileg, ranging downward and lodging In
the heel. Howard is HOW in the hos
lpital. His wounds are not expected to
prove serious.
Shortly after II o'clock last night Of
flcer Clay was Informed that three men
| had held up and robbed a fourth man
near the corner Of Sixth street and Sec
ond avenue south. In company with his
informant, Peter Cronenberger. bar
Der. the policemen went to the scene OF
the supposed hold-up and arrested
Howard, Mike Donlin and Tom NC
Carthy. Cronenberger was deputized to
escort Howard to Jail, while the police
man took the other two men. Wnen
near they all,howevel. Howard broke
away from sCTOneUUciSSI anu oSesheSA
to run. Clay turned ever his prisoners
to the care Of Cronengerger and start
ed in pursuit. A command to halt was
not needed by the fleeing man and then
the officer opened fire. The first shot
went wild, but the second took effect IN
lHoward's left leg. Regardless OF his
wound the fugitive continued his flight
until brought to the ground by bullet
In the other leg. He was Immediately
removed to the city Jail and his wounds
dressed by two surgeons. This morn
ling he was taken to the hospital.
When turned over to the care OF
ICronenberger, Donlin and Mccarthy al
so broke away. but were rearrested Ia
| ter. It has since developed that no at
tempt at hold-up was made. It seems
that the three men, who are laborers on
1.-THE Great Western extension at Moor
land. were having an alienation with
fellow laborer named Kelly when Cron-
Ienberger heard part OF the conversation
and mistook 1t for an attempt at high
way robbery. Accordingly a much
milder charge win be filed against the
men.
