Use Mall Tribune want ads. prehended, and are fugitives from Justice now. Affidavits of two members of the Jury that found Reed guilty Oeorge A. Porter and Charles S. Butterfleld are also embodied In the protest. The affidavits state on the first bal lot. Reed waa found guilty, but the long deliberations were concerned with whether to vote the death pen alty or life Imprisonment. Photographs of the murder spot, and the statement of the court, In denying a new trial, are also part of the protest. . The brief also submits a number of affidavits from residents of Ash land, in contradiction to affidavits by the defense. The petition for clemency bitterly attacks the positive Identification of Reed, by Roy Laymon, Ashland po liceman, with Knott at the time of his slaying. "No one, as far as can be learned, ever questioned his ver acity or character, save counsel for Red,N the protest says. Reed's counsel has affidavits, from Ashland residents and Moore Hamil ton of this city, averring that Lay mon told them, shortly after the murder, he could not Identify the slayer, but testified at the trial pos itively Identifying Reed. Reed claims that at the time of the murder, he was in a hamburger stand, half a mite from the scene, and Introduces affidavits of two Ash land residents In support of this con tention. Reed admits he travelled In an auto, from Denver with Jackson and McQuade, but parted from them upon arrival at Ashland. j Knott waa slain, when with Lay-! mon, he was riding' In a police car netir the lenders warehouse, they saw two men, and commanded itu-tn to halt, for questioning. TM pair stood in the glare of the headlights, and a hall of lead greeted the second query of the officers. Reed, In his petition, claims that he spent the night of the murder In f. rooming house near the Plaza in Asniana, ana mac ne viaitea ine po lice station when the news of the murder was spread. The next morn ing, he says, he left for the north. The morning following the killing, state police found Reed's auto wreck ed near Foots Creek. Evidence found in it resulted In Reed's arrest at Longmont, Colo., on Christmas eve, 1031. The protest to leniency, cites that the murder of Knott, 'was one of the three brutal and cowardly mur ders of peace officers In this county in recent years." and further declares, "Reed la not entitled to either com mutation of sentence or pardon .H The petition for clemency Is based upon the 'grounds of new evidence, alleged misconduct of a woman Juror, In visiting the scene of the murder, without court Instructions and al leged error of the court In admitting testimony of a burglary In California,- showing that stolen goods were found In Reed'a auto. the woman, whose injuries were slight. Quick to arrive on the scene were 30 members of a "disciplinary force" of the German front. Phot as Warning The official version said Justice, who waa In civilian clothes, believed he waa in danger and fired a warning ahot with his revolver.

Justice waa taken to a hospital, from which he was to be discharged today. His force has no direct con nection with the "plebiscite army." probe to Be Pushed "The police have received the or der," said & etatement by the league governing commission, "to proceed with special vigor In clearing up the incident and to establish responsibili ties wthout regard for the persons involved."
