FRY WILL PROBABLY RECOVER.
Details Of the stabbing ARRAY at Ne
vada's Northwestern Depot.

vada's Northwestern Depot.
Special to Times Republican.
Nevada Feb. 5.-Ross Fry. the man
who was SO badly cut up In the ARRAY
at the Northwestern station Sunday
afternoon, has been resting quite east
ly so far. the pain that will come with
the healing of the wounds around the
stitches. not having started as yet.
The long wound on the scalp. which
was from the point of the left eyebrow,
directly across the head to the point
where the hair divides, was ten inches
in length and capped open an inch and
a half. leaving the scalp bare. The
stab over the heart was brought to
stop by striking rib, while the long
cash on the left side of the back sew
cred the large muscles and was cut
clear to the bone. 1t Is not thought
that Fry's wounds will prove fatal, all
tho the preliminary hearing is being
withheld pending their outcome.
1t appears that one of the younger
Hardesty boys. Floyd, was at the de-
pot and got into an alteration with
the Fry boys, Jimmie Bryant, Morris
Hidy, Blaine Corbin and number of
others. He called one of the men
vile name, and was grabbed and chok-
ed for the act. He then dispatched a
younger brother, Jack, over to the
Hardesty home, which Is nearby, and
when the balance of the family, Mart,
the father. and the two brothers, Wor-
ley and Clarence appeared, hostilities
were at once started After striking
one of the other boys. Worley, or
Peg" the one legged boy, struck Fry,
who had had nothing to do with the
former affair Fry Immediately knock
ed him down, when another one OF the
Hardesty gang took hand in the bout
with Fry. and the latter landed on top
OF the cripple, who with long bladed
knife in his right hand, grabbed Fry
around the neck with his left hand,
and began cutting and slashing.
Five of the Hardestys were arrested
and placed in Jail, the cripple being
charged with assault with intent to
commit murder and the father and
Clarence charged with riotous conduct.
Jack was afterwards released and
Floyd arraigned under the city ordin-
ance, while the man Corbin, charged
with fighting. Corbin plead guilty and
Hardesty not guilty. His trial has not
been held as yet.
1t is said that the Hardesty men had
been drinking heavily during the Sum
day previous, and the cripple boy WOr-
ley had been hauled to his home upon
a depot truck, in hopeless state of
intoxication some hours previous. He
was arraigned before the mayor this
morning. and plead not guilty to the
charge of attempted murder. The pre-
liminary hearing will be held later.
