 also heard man or men running but did not see them. Carl Wright. night bookkeeper at the freight offices of the Arizona Eastern heard a man run along the Buckeye tracks just south of the freight offices, and an employe of the gas plant on South First avenue stated that he also heard a man run ming along the paved street just after the shots were fired but that he was unable to locate him until he had dis appeared in the darkness.
 The statement of Will Lepker, of 1115 East Jefferson street, who was in the Depot Cafe was taken few minutes after the officers arrived. He said that he had heard six shots out on the
