NOT A CONSPIRACY
IN THE PENlTENTlARY,

Otto Gramm. lessee Of the state pen
i%tentiary at Rawlins. returned last
night from that institution, where he
had been to conduct an investigation
Of the recent killing Of a guard and
the suicide of his assailant. Mr..
Gramm says there was no conspiracy
among the convicts. He doubts If a
soul knew Of the plot besides Eckard
and the mar outside. Who the latter
was the prison officials have not yet
made public. That there was one is
not doubted, as dynamite was found
both inside and outside the prison.
Eckard was buried in the prison GEM

the Rawlins cemetery.

William L.. Davis, a young man Of II
years, whose father resides at Elko,
New, where he is a contractor, was
killed about 4 o'clock this morning. at
the local plant of the Acme Cement
Plaster company, and Coroner Ballard
is this afternoon holding an inquest.
the jury consisting of Joseph Lohlein,
Charles Appel and f. E.. Greenwood.
The jury viewed the body at Stryker's
morgue, afterwards being driven to
the plaster mills and inspecting the
place of the accident. Several other
employees Of the plaster mill witnessed
the accident and these are being ex-
amined by the oroner.
Helping to Replace Belt.
From the facts at hand, 1t seems
that young Davis went to the assist
ance of some Of his comrades who
were trying to put q belt on a moving
pulley. The young man climbed to
the line shaft above, his clothes be-
coming entangled in the pulley. He
was whirled about the shaft, which
moved ordinarily at about 200 revolu-
lions per minute, and before the ma
chinery could be stopped and the
young man removed, he was so seri-
ously injured that he died within the
hour. The undertakers were sum-
money. the coroner being also notified
of the accident.
Body Badly Bruised.
Davis feet were both pounded to a
pulp. the members striking the timbers
above the shaft as his body was
whirled around. His right arm was
broken and the right side of his chest
was crushed in, making the efforts OF
a surgeon unavailing. Death would
have been the inevitable result, the
wonder being that he lived even for an
hour after being rescued from the
shaft.
Been Here a Year.
4 The father of the unfortunate young
man has been telegraphed to. Young
Davis came here about a year ago,
working a part of the time for Mr..
Harnden. later going to the plaster
mill, being attached to the night shift.
From the evidence of those who were
at the mill at the time, it would seem
that Davis was not needed to help
place the belt on the pulley, voluntarily
going up the ladder to assist in the
work. The body is at Stryker's.
Was Crushed to Death.
The witnesses to the tragedy stated
this afternoon thai in their opinion the
mans clothing had caught on a set
screw on the pulley, drawing his jacket
so tightly as to crush his life out. They
heard him say nothing, and while
death was not instantaneous, they be-
lieved he had been unconscious from
the first minute or two, the clothing
drawing so tightly about his chest as
to stop respiration and crush the lungs
and other organs. The verdict had
not been returned when The Repub-
lican went to press this afternoon.
