Deming, \. NJ, Feb. 2l.--The true
facts of the gun battle, in when
Sheriff p. b. stephens was killed be-
came known only late this afternoon
when those who had been eyewitness
es to the fight began 10 return 10
Deming. The stories circulated in
Rincon last night were badly garbled'
even when contributed by those who
under less STRESS were in a position
to furnish the facts.
There were " men actually en-
gagged in the battle wiiose presence
was unknown to others also engaged.
These two men We're Jack Arnold
and Wayne Estes, who came upon the
scene Just as Deputy Sheriff John
Kelly opened the fight from the top
of the hill
There was no road where the fight
took place. The ear used by the
bandits had been run UP a small sandy
arroyo at the base of the small hill,
which figures largely in the tragedy,
about one mile northeast of Rincon in
the foothills The jalbreakers were
eating lunch in the arroyo when they
were startled into action by the sound
of the cars Of the pursuing officers.
They sprang TO the edge of the ar
royo and were thereby protected TO
Il great extent all during the battle
that followed John Kelly was the
first man to discover the fugitives
after arriving on top of the hill. He
opened fire. Jack Arnold and Wayne
Estes joined him and so did J. G. Ia
bor shortly afterwards.
steady Fire Kept Up.
The four kept up a steady fire and
one of this party shot J. Q. Starr in
the leg. it was one of this party, also,
that shot the boy Joe Cranston dead
ut about four hundred yards as he
was attempting to escape from the
arroyo
The four on the hill arc of the opin-
ion that Sheriff stephens never saw
any of the bandits, being almost in
stantly killed as he was skirting the
base of the hill not more than ten
feet from the fueitives and in the
SAME arroyo. The desperate men
were simply waiting for some of the
officers to attempt to come around
the hill They wounded Buck Sewer
in much the same way, though he
was higher on the hill and saw and
yelled at the escaped prisoners before
he was struck down.
The bandits were above both Steph-
ems and Sewer. This accounts for the
fact that the fatal bali passed through
the sheriffs right arm at the shoul-
der. ranging down to the heart. 1t Is
thought that the empty shell in his
gun was due to a discharge caused
by his fall The bandits We're firing
ND the hill and down the arroyo, all
most at right angles. The sheriff lay
in plain sight of the party on the

"About 1000 persons took part in
the second demonstration. After thir-
" minutes, they were dispersed by the
police Two persons were slightly in
jured
The third demonstration consisted
of what ought to be called a prone
made of small groups on the Friedrich
strasse. These soon disappeared when
invited TO do so by the police.
AS to the butter riots, they ceased
when the military authorities fixed
maximum prices, and they never were
real riots. 1t was only in Chemnit2,
a town of more than 100000 inhabi-
tants, that a demonstration took place
,on q somewhat larger scale ON the
third evening, when young working
men were returning from the factories,
they joined the parading women and
smashed windows. The fire brigade
was called and turned the hose on
them. This ended the demonstra-

Il most heartily wish that all my
colleagues of interior offices. or what

riots than such as we have had since
the beginning OF the war; TO tell the
truth, we have had more serious
scenes in Berlin during peace times
than now.

STEEL BRIDGE TO BE
ERECTED ON WHITE RIVER

The first steel bridge to be erected
in White Pine county has arrived at
East Ely and the work of hauling
the material to White River valley
will be Immediately commenced by
William Ferguson of Preston. The
bridge will be constructed across
lower White river. on the Midland
Trail between Ely and Tonopah, at
a point about a mile and a quarter
southwest OF what was formerly
known as the Mcqueen ranch, but
now known as the Ferguson ranch.
The bridge will have a span of A
feet and be 20 feet in width, with
concrete abutments. The material
was purchased at Terre Haute, In
diana, at a cost of 5000, and the
hauling and erection of it will cost
fully that much more.
The erection of such a bridge is
certainly in keeping with the great
progress of White Pine county, and
the county commissioners are de-
serving of great credit for this adj
ditional step in the direction of per-
manent good road building. The
county today boasts of the best roads
in the state and the energetic work
of the commissioners has been the
cause of favorable comment on the
part of tourists travelling through
this section of the country from v
cry part of the globe.
