that the murder had interrupted their
plans for n holdup, kept the victims
covered with revolver and fled from
the building to the car which was
standing before the roadhouse.
Last Friday Detective Bays was
called into the case by the father Of
the dead boy. Eli Potee. The father
asked that the slayers of his son be
tracked to earth. 1t is thot his wish
has been fulfilled, but he did not live
to learn of this, for he died of "a
broken heart Wednesday morning.
Slight Clues.
In following the tracks left by the
men suspected of the murder of the
young contractor, the detectives had
but the nickname of one of the rob-
bers and the model of the car in which
the escape was made, which happens
to be the same as that used by Bowden
in his taxicab service in Tulsa.
This trail was followed from Tulsa
to Holdenville, thence to Wewoka.
where Roberts father Is jailor and
where the young man has been in
trouble on several previous occasions.
The trail was then followed to Shaw
nee. where the car was repaired.
thence to Oklahoma city and into
Guthrie, where Bowdens father Is n
justice of the peace The men were
tracked from Guthrie 10 Chandler, to
Shamrock and thence to Drumright.
where Bowden was placed under ar
rest, together with woman known
to her associates as Blossom Brown.
The woman was placed IN Jail there
and Bowden was brought to Tulsa
yesterday afternoon. Immediately De
tective Bays secured n search war
rant and went to the nome of Dude
Jonniecake. woman known to have
been associated with Roberts. The
woman's home at $50 South Nanthus
was searched, and it was while in
vcstigating a trunk In n bathroom that
Bays was attacked by Roberts who
had concealed himself .here and only
the threats of the officer to shoot to
kill brought the prisoner to submis-
sion.
Hoth are now In the county Jail,
awaiting a preliminary hearing on
the charge of killing Potee.
