YOUTH FACING ROPE
IS STABBED BY PAL
Feared for Own Life, Says
Assai|ant in Prison ARRAY.
Held for Same Killing.
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, June 20.-Walter
Krauser, charged with the murder of
a policeman, today stabbed and pos
sibly fatally wounded Bernard Grant
under sentence of death for the same
murder, while the two were receiv-
ing visitors in the county jail.
An operation was performed tonight
in an effort to save Grants life, but
at its conclusion doctors said they
had no hope whatever for his re.
covery.
krauser in a statement to Warden
Wesley Westbrook said that Grant
had threatened to kill him. The stab
bing was done with a pocket knife
which Krauser said he had found
Warden Westbrook, however, said he
believed the knife had been smuggled
in to the prisoner.
Grant was stabbed five times. He
and krauser were taken to the visi-
tors room to meet relatives of each.
A screen divides the visitors room
into two parts, the prisoners occupy
ing one part and visitors the other.
When Grant entered the room,
Krauser ignored the greetings of his
relatives and Immediately attacked
his companion. Relatives, powerless
to interfere, collapsed, and the Jail,
housing several hundred prisoners,
was thrown into confusion.
Blame Grant for Killing.
Both Krauser and Grant were con-
victed of the murder of Policeman
Ralph Spuders while trying to hold
up a tea store two years ago. Both
were sentenced to hang, but the case
was carried to the Supreme Court,
which upheld the decision of the
lower courts as to Grant, but grant
ed krauser a new trial on his repre-
sentation that Grant fired the shot
which killed the policeman.
No date yet has been set for the re-
trial of Krauser.
Grant has succeeded in obtaining
four or five reprieyes. twice almost
on the eve of the date fixed for his
execution. He is now under sentence
to be hanged August IA.
Grants hair has turned white and
he has become partly bald since his
conviction. He was hardly past the
age of 19 when sentenced.
The i'll feeling between Grant and
Krauser, Jail guards said, had it's in
ception after the Supreme Court de-
cision.
Grant, at the jail hospital, refused
to make any statement as to who
stabbed him, answering all questions
with a curt Il don't care to talk"
Krauser was more talkative.
Grant is afraid he will hang for
sure August a." he said, and he
wanted to put all the blame on me
so that he would be pardoned by the
governor. He was going to get me.
