Deputy Hepfinger could not find time
te say a word and Deputy Jackson was
but little different. He simply admitted
that he was in Crawford Friday and saw
the men arrested. He had just sort of
happened around to help Hepfinger bring
them in, but neither deputy had gone out
on that particular business. The marshal
‘•supposed” that Hepfinger had merely’
been following orders in the wav of serv
ing warrants issued by the United States
commissioner in whatever part of the
state he might happen to be..
The last move in the game was made
late tonight.
Attorneys Donzleman and Ransom were
busy until 8:30 o’clock filling obscure cor
ners in the rotunda of the Millard and
when a reporter approached the former
shortly after that time the bewhiskered
lawyer from Dawes county insisted that
the whole trouble up in the cattle country
had been exaggerated.
But he could not stop the talk. He
was going out of the city and would be
back in a couple of days, when he would |
write a book and do several other things.
Right now. however, he must catch his
train, so good bye.
