the vault into the office and is said to claim that Apple had seized Miss Horne by her clothing near her neck and in his right hand held an automatic pistol. Horne pulled his gun out of his pocket and began shooting. He fired five times. Three of the shots went wild. One struck Apple just to the left of the navel, passed through the stom- ach and lodged in the back. An other bullet struck Miss Horne in the right groin and inflicted pain ful but not fatal wound. One ball was extracted from the beaver board partition between Apples office and Sheriff Cotter's office. From the location of this ball it appears Horne fired that time from a posi- ton near the vault door and when he discharged the weapon he must have been facing the southeast corn CT of Apples office.
 Immediately after the shooting, Horne walked out of Apples office and met Sheriff Arthur Cotter in the corridor just as the sheriff had started for Apples office to invest igate the trouble. Horne told Cot ter he had shot Apple, turned his gun over to the sheriff and went into the sheriff's office. He was permitted to go home with his wounded daughter and later was formally placed in custody and re- leased on a bond of S2,000.
 This incoming following Apples death last night, Sheriff Cotter re- arrested Horne on a charge of mur- der. The warrant was issued by Esq. R. M. Hays. Horne's bond was fixed at $25,000 which he made and was then released from custody.
 E. w. King, county clerk, heard three shots in quick succession, he stated yesterday, and by the tiWe he got into the corridor he heard two more shots. His office is directly opposite Apples office. When he reached the corridor Miss Horne had just emerged from Apples of flee. She told Mir. King she and Apple had been shot and to please get doctor at once.
 Sheriff Cotter, who reached Alp ple's office immediately after the Shooting, found Apple leaning against table in the main or front office. He told the sheriff Horne had shot him. Apple sent word to his little ten-year old son, Marsnall Apple, at the public school building The boy reached his father withlh a few minutes.
