FIRST MKINNEY REWARD
Paid by an Arizona Shariff to ths Out.
 laws Slayer

The following dispatch to 6 Los An geleS paper from Bakersfield on May 5 credits Arizona with coming to the front first in the matter of rewards for the capture of Outlaw Mckinney. The reward offered by Governor Brodie, like that offered by Governor PaTdee of Cal ifornia. was for arrest and conviction. but it is proba bIe Governor Brodie, like the California governor. will waive the technicality and pay the reward if the law will permit him to do so. The tele- gram from Bakersfield says:
 City marshal Tibbet, the slayer of Outlaw Mckinney. today received T check for $500 from Sheriff Lovin of Mohave coutny. A. T., the amount of fered by that official for the capture of the outlaw, dead or alive. The mon ey was immediately divided between the widows of the two officers who died in the final battle at the josshouse all other participants having waived thelr claims.
 The sheriff suggests that a certificate of the outlaws death be sent Governor Brodie to collect the $500 offered by the territory. The matter of the reward of fered by the governor of California will also be taken up by Sheriff Kelly through the Sheriffs' association, and although this was for arrest and con- victiOn it is thought that it will be paid without question under the circum stances. All rewards will also be turn ed over to the widows of the dead off cers."

THE ANDERSON CASE
The Defendent Tells the Story of the
 Death of Cameron.

The chief event of the trial of Josiah Anderson yesterday was the testimony of the defendant. which occupied most of the afternoon. The case was re- sumed in the morning with the recall of Joe ROmig, the main witness for the territory. who had been excused the evening before. His testimony contair- ed little that had not been gone over by him on his first appearance on the stand. It related to the conduct of the defendant and Cameron. the man who was killed. in the evening. just before the shooting. Other witnesses for the territory were W. J. Seymore. J. Mi randa and Eva Schoshusen. As they were not eye witnesses and had seeL little of either Anderson or Cameron in the evening before the killing their evidence was not of great interest.
 The territory rested before noon and at 1:30 o'clock the defendant went on the stand He denied all the occur lences related by Romig. He had not been drunk, had not threatened Cam eron and had no trouble with him.
 His story of the killing was as fol
 lows: Some time before Cameron hal been arrested for branding some cattle belonging to Henry Wills. He had a preliminary hearing in Phoenix and was discharged for lack of evidence. Wills had not abandoned his attempt to recover the cattle, and Cameron showed a disposition to make terms with him Wills and Cameron had talked the affair over and had agreed upon the defendant as arbitrator. This selection had been made known to An derson about a week or ten days before the killing. Cameron was the first iO tell him of it. On the morning of the day Of the shooting the defendant and Cameron left one of the Anderson ranches to 20 to Agua Caliente to ses.

.FEhRLE SS GUARD

Convicts Made a Desperate
Charge.
HuRL DYNAMITE AT euARDMAN
Ed McCrary of Americus the Guard
Who Shot Down Fleeing Prisoners
at Pratt Mines-FuII Story OF Thrill
ling Adventure Given.

When Americus people read several
days ago of the desperate attempt at
escape made by convicts at Pratt
Mines, Ala. one of the most thrilling
of recent years, they little imagined
that an old Americus boy was ''the
man behind the gun" that killed and
wounded several, and the hero of the
occasion.
But it was no other than Ed McCra-
ry, who, with nerves of steel, stood at
the post of duty when other guards
fed in terror, and toyed with the trig.
ger of his breech-loader.
And his praises are still being sound
ed by those in high authority
Mr.. McCfary is an elder brother of
Mrs. j. p. Chapman, of Americas. He
was born and reared here, and was ex-
press agent when the business of this
Office was handled in a wheeIbarrow.
He was one of the braYest of the Sum
ter Light Guards, and staid in the
fight from the frat gun at Sumter to
Appomattox.
This is said by way of introduction
to those who may not remember the
grizzled old soldier.
In letter to Mrs. Chapman, receiv
ed yesterday, Mr.. McCrary describes
graphically the attempted escape of
forty five desperadoes at midnight.
McCrary and another guard were on
duty, when terrific explosion threw
them off their feet. It was dynamite
bomb hurled at them, but it fell twen-
ty feet short and failed in its mission
of death. At the sound of the explo-
sion the other guard fed, leaving Nc
Crazy to the mercy of the convicts.
These came pouring from a cell,
hurting at McOrary numerous sticks
of dynamite with fuses lighted. His
escape from death, under the circum-
stances, was miraculous.
In moment he got busy with his
shotgua, and took crack at every
blazing match. The first man shot
down was "safe cracker" and the dy
Mantle expert among the desperadoes.
McCrarY kept his gun busy, and soon
had laid out five of the crooks.
Seeing their comrades shot down in
such manner, the forty other despera
does retreated back to their cell and
were locked in.
After the thrilling fight of one man
against forty-fve of the worst crimi-
mails on earth had ended, the other pris-
on guards turned out, and the guard
who had deserted McCcCrary also
came back and told the old story of
how he had killed the bear. McCrary's
story was verified by all the prisoners.
It was the most desperate situation
of the many that have confronted Ed
McCrary.
Among the five men shot down was
Texas cowboy, described by Nc
Crazy as one of the handsomest men
he has ever seen. He was shot in
three places with buckshot and lived
but short while. The prison officials
highly complimented Mr.. McCrary
for his brave and fearless work.
And Americas people who know him
well will join in this tribute to his un-
f1inching courage.

Under ruling recently made by
State Attorney Hart, those counties
using long term convicts on the public
roads will be put to additional and un-
pected expense. State convicts, he
rules, when worked with misdemeanor
convicts must be kept in separate quar-
tiers during hours of rest and converse
ton. This puts on the counties using
felony convlcts the expense of building
a separate stockade so as to keep the
two classes of convicts apart. Judge
Hart also holds that all the guards and

are used by the counties are to be APP
pointed by the Prison Commission,
