It had been arranged that 20 minutes after the
arrival of McGloin policeman should enter the

Hanier was shot, that 10 minutes later Moran should
be led across the court that after another 10 min

still another 10 minutes Banfeld should cross the

it was his own that he had been unustly suspected

Detective (now sInspector) Schmittberger entered

sat notice of the reward of $500 offered for Haners

read the notice When Schmittberger went out there
was general guffaw in the saloon, and McGloin,
who had been the chief scofer at the notice, ex--
claimed "A fellow amt really tough until he has
knocked out his man." Then he laughed and flung
his hand in contemptuous defiance toward the offer

Reports to headquarters showed that the next aft

side doors joined him. All the occupants OF the room
were ordered to back against the wall and hold up

The man assigned to search the party began his work
at the other end. When he came to McGloin he
looked carefully at watch that he had taken from
