DEMAND FOR
FRANK KEEFE
JUDGE CARPENTER ISSUES BENCH
WARRANT AND PLACES 1T
IN HANDS OF SHERIFF.
Latter Officer Goes to Rawlins to Serve
Writ, Accompanied by County At
torney Downey and Judge Groes-
beck, keefe's Attorney-Two Men

Judge Carpenter this morning Issued
a bench warrant for the arrest of
Frank Keefe and delivered it to Sher-
iff AL Bath, who went to Rawlins this
afternoon to serve it. Keefe is in the
county Jail at Rawlins, and when Mr..
Bath went up he was not SUI that
Sheriff Horton would consent to give
the prisoner up and permit him to be
brought to this city for trial. Sheriff
Bath was accompanied by County At
torney Downey and Judge Groesbeck,
attorney for Keefe, and there may be
some complications. Mr.. Downey was
not prepared to say what would hap
pen in case the Carbon county officials
declined to surrender the man, but be-
lieved that if they persisted in ignor-
ing Judge Carpenters warrant, the
case here against Keefe would be dis
missed and the trial be permitted to
proceed before Judge Craig of the
Third judicial district.
mdttcT OF FTcCcocHts
There is a peculiar legal situation
in the Keefe case, once that has sell
dom arisen in this state. When Keefe
killed John Baxter, the Rawlins po-
liceman, for which he was tried here
and sent to the penitentiary for four
years, he also killed, according to the
information filed at that time and with
in the past thirty days, n Tom King,
a railroad man, who was a bystander
and who was in no way connected
with the killing of Baxter. Keefe's
attorneys asked for a change of venue
when the case was called in the dis
trict court at Rawlins for the Baxter
homicide, and that case and the other,
charging him with the killing of King
were sent to this county, where the
conviction In the Baxter case was had
Second Case Pending Here.
The other cas- is pending and has
been called in one form or another at
every term of the court here, almost.
since the date of the conviction. Here
he is charged alone with the killing
of King; there he is charged with his
brother, William, who was said to
have been in the store at the time Of
the shooting, but who was not a wit
ness in the other case, and so far as
the Albany county officers know, has
not been seen in these parts since the
arrest of his brother.
Attorney Undecided.
Judge Groesbeck stated this morn
ing that he did not know what he
would do in the matter. He had made
p~eremptory demand upon County At
torney Downey for the speedy trial of
Keefe, and an order had been drawn
commanding the transfer of Keefe
from the Carbon county to the Albany
county Jail, that the case might be
called here. Judge Carpenter declined
to sign this order, holding that it was
simply a habeas corpus writ in an
other form, and hence the bench war
