RENO SLAYER
EXONERATED BY
C0R0NER'S JURY

RENO. New, June S. UP)-Wil-
liam "Bill" Graham, quick trigger
ed member of Neyada's big four"
gaming combine and an associate
of Jack Dempsey. stood exonerated
by a coroner's jury today in the
gun duel death of F.. r. McCracken,
q western gambler of the old school.
Self Defense" was the verdict in
the vests newest bit of gunplay-
an affair as melodramatic as an es-
capade of Wild Bill Hickok, Kit
Carson or even Billy The Kid.
It was the third and last of the
gunfights that marked McCracken' S
life as a gamester in mining camps
and desert towns. He went out"
with an oath on his lips, his weak
ening fingers working futively on
a frozen" cartridge chamber.
Graham calmly laid down his
smoking revolver and surrendered
to police. He would not say what
they fought about, but 1t was known
McCracken had borrowed much
from him lately.
The story came out at the in
quest, and SO unanimous was the
agreement that District Attorney
Melvin Jepson said he would take
the case before the grand jury to
obtain complete exoneration."
