 The testimony given by William Jones was very much like that of Reilly. He told of the argument that led up to the fight and also of. seeing Reilly go out the door and Lucas fol- lowing. He stated that when he ad- v1Sed Lucas not to argue with Reilly, that the latter had not said anything to him, that Lucas said, +'I don't care, I've got it in for him anyway"
 Elmer Anderson was in the tool house when the argument started. Under question, he was sure that he did not see razor in Lucas hands. He left the tool house before any blows were struck. Witnesses wh o were sleeping in the camp stated that when Anderson came in, he yelled out Get up, boys, there's going to be a riot in the tool house.
 Anderson explains his attitude in that he could not hear well or see well due to the fact that he was in toxicated and did not pay much at tention to what was said or done.
 William Lewis, colored, a sleeper at F he heard Reilly and Jones talking to someone in the camp. He heard Reilly say, 'eI got a pick handle and tried to wipe him out" Later he said, five a mind to go back and fin- ish him up,'' but Jones dissuaded him. wants my blanket?

 Though the accident happened but a short while after midnight, medical assistance was not sent for until after 5 a. m., when Charles Lucas, 16 year old son of the dead man, awakened by the talking of the men and after he and Reilly and Anderson had carried the body of his father from the tool house to lithe camp3s went for pr. Charles D. Hyde. When Dr. Hyde arrived respiration had ceased but pulse. Sheriff R. H. Elwood arrived at the same time and put the hand cuffs on both Reilly and Jones.

This caused Rei1- fy to answer, You started it all right, but I guess I finished him. I know they'll hang me for it.'' The sheriff stated that he took a razor away from Reilly who had the instrument in large envelope, Reilly claiming that he had knocked 1t from Lucas hands.
 The coroner completed his hearing shortly before 1 o'clock. A town hearing will be held before Judge Ba- con Wakeman in the Fairfield court to- morning at 10 o'clock.
 What action will be taken in the Jones' case has not as yet been de- cided, the authorities awaiting fur ther developments. He is however held as Q, most valuable witness.
