SUIT RECALLS
THRILLING N|GHl

That thrilling night of December 81,
1919 when in tho Pueblo county jail
a turnkey was almost beaten to death
with a huge club. and a jailbreak leader
was shot in the groin, was brought Wv
idly to mind yesterday By the filing
of a civil suit against several persons
including w. H. Leroy, known all over
the country as the "hand-cuff king"
The title of the suit filed yesterday
in the county court is u. H. MCGEE
VS.. P. o. Call, w. II. Leroy and Ruth
Leroy" and complaint alleges that
defendants owe plaintiff the sum of
sl1S5 on promissory note which was
made payable to Walter G. Davis, and
later assigned to plaintiff.
Ed Coats, turnkey on duty at the
county Jail on the evening of the
Wholesale jail break attempt, was
struck over the head several times
by Charles r. Jewell. charged with
forgery. The officer with blood stream
ing in torrents from his head, ran for
his gun, and the four or five prison
ers implicated in the plot rushed from
the cellhouse down the stairs to the
main floor and the office. Leroy. a
prisoner on charge of fraud in con-
nection with a mortgage on some cat
tie, was a trusty and near the iailer's
office at the time. He prevented the
Jail breakers from securing weapons in
the office and otherwise assisted the Jail
officials. Turnkey Coats followed the
fleeing prisoners down the basement
stairs, and when half way down. Jew
ell made dash at him with his club.
= Coats fired at the man. striking him
in the groin, the bullet lodging in the
hip bone.
Coats was laid up at his home for
some time, and Jewell much longer at
a hospital under guard. Finally both
recovered and Jewell was sent to the
state penitentiary for from Z to 10
years.
Time rolled on and the ancusers of
Leroy and his wife failed to present
for the district attorneys use evidence
which that official thought would justify
trying them, so he nolled their case.
Immediately on their release from Jail
they were taken into custody by the
FL Paso county sheriff and to Colorado
Springs. Soon they were likewise re-
leased by the district attorney there.
and came back to Pueblo and expressed
their thanks to the sheriff's force and
others who had boon kind to them.
Then they went to California with their
little daughter. and at last accounts
were doing we'll in the motion picture
business.

SPAIN FACES NEW
MOROCCAN REBELS
Riff Tribesmen Attack Block
House at Meijas, in
Tetuan District.
BY the Associated Press.

MADRID. August 1O-Hostiiities
between the Spanish and the Moroc-
can tribesmen which have been going
on in eastern Morocco for the past
three weeks and have resulted in a
virtual collapse of the Spanish cam
paign there. appear to have spread
into western Morocco. The Spanish
commandant at Tetuan reports that
Riff tribesmen on Sunday attacked the
blockhouse at Meijas, in the Tetuan
district, and that the garrison after
losing several men. was obliged to
fall back upon Gouk El-Arba. The
commandant has declared that the in
cident was not important.
Am official statement issued last
night relative to the fighting near
Melilia states that the conflict at
Mount Arruit. where Gen. Navarro
and force of men have been sur
rounded for several days. has COM
pletely ceased. and that the enemy
forces in that region appear to be
less numerous. Another report re-
ceived here. however. states that Gen.
Navarro.s position is becoming in
creasingly critical. 1t is said the only
water the Spanish troops can get is
by melting ice brought by airplane.
The political crisis which has re-
suited from the defeat of the Spanish
ter of interest here. In political CEN
ters there is an almost general de-
mand for the establishment of a
strong administration that may be
capable of handling the critical situa-
ton. A, parliamentary government
under the premiership of. Antonio
Maura, conservative leader, is IA
vored, but it is forecast that he may
meet great difficulties. owing to the
plans of the heads of small political
organizers. who might take advan-
tage of the present situation. 1t is
known that Premier Allendesalazar
wishes to relinquish his post
The presidents of the chamber of
deputies and the senate called upon
King Alfonso yesterday, and outlined
their views as to the Moroccan prob
lem and the solution of the ministerial
crisis. Both expressed the opinion
that severe punishment should be visit
ed upon the rebellious tribesmen.
In commenting on the defeat of the
Spaniards in Morocco. the Epoca says
the foreign press, in dealing with the
Moroccan question. has done justice
to the acts of the Spanish troops, but
still awaits Spain'S response to the
Moroccan offensive"
"It is Spain's duty the newspaper
continues. Ito make this response

tiffs. explained to the court that the
power company will take two more
weeks to install the transmitters and
that the shutting down of the plant
