Jones Still I'mu'tucd "Jones was unarmed as yet, land the gun ease was locked. Junes ran over to a desk In bi0 corner of the turnkey',) office and looked for a six shooter in the drawer.

I grabbed a heavy spltoon nnd crashed the lo.'k on the gun due, handed a 30-30 rifle fully loaded, to Joues. Jones was excited and be gan emptying the gun at tower No. 1, through tho window, Jones Itiius Wild "When he emptied the first gun he picked up another one and did the same t.Mng. but did not register a hit. Joues was running wild. He expected to be killed, and wai ap parently making his last stand. He wus shootu'ng wild. "N'hody was hurt up to this time. Jones land tower 1 were She only ones that fired, except one shot I fired at tower. 1, hut 1 saw no one to shoot at. Just fired at random I took two six shooters, a ,3S special Oolts and 32-20 Smith aud Wes son. Jones look his sawed-off shot gut, loaded with buckshot, and ran back out on the law-3. Wien wc got out on the lawn Kelly and Willos were standing with thcir hauds in the Ulr under cover of five guards armed with guns, just out side the iron fence, and also cov ered by the guard in bull pen, tower No, 7. No shots were fired from tower number 7. . Gnnrds Have Pair Covered "The only tbfcig which kept tho guaras rroxn shooting ttem was that they had Guard Pete White standing between Willos and Kelly. His being there was the only Lain;; which kept Willos and Kelly from being shot down in cold blood, as a deputy warden told Whito to get away from them aud alsj told tho guards to shcot them." Newman interrupted tlo ask wi'.iy was. -Pete White between them and the answer was: "Because Pete White did not waut to see a man shot down in cold blood. He (Pete) came over volun tarily. He was unarmed. W&en Jones aud I ran out of the turnkey's office the guards that had Kelly and Willow covered run for cover. Willos and Kelly were still unarm ed, with their haads in the air." (Newman asked: "Were you shoot ing when you came from tiae turn key's office?") Murray answered: "No, I was not, but I would not swear about Jones.vbut he did not hit anybody. I threw Willos a .3S Colts. The guards had run for cover, scattered towarJs Che tree3 and the garlage, Guards Seek Safely "The -warden, deputy warden or turnkey did not know- where they were. There wasn't any uhootlng going on right here, owing La the fact tihat the guards tworc seeking cover, and "we all ran, Kelly, Willos and I got behind an oak tree, and I, across the lawn to towcer No. 1. "No. 1 tower was not shooting 'mil I got behind an oak tree, and I told him to come out and throw his gun down or we -would smoke him out of there. Instead of doing no he kept hJimself covered as well as he could behind the walls of his tower nnd tried to get a uhot at na with his rifle. As it was his life or ours, I shot ihlm in the head with the .32-20. He fell dead and I made a run for the steps leading up to the tower. Willos was riglit be hind me. Neither Willos nor Kelly had fired up to this time. Just as I went up the first two stent of the stairs, Guard Holman, m ho wijs con cealed behind the Iron fence, xhol me flhrough the left arm. Just as he shot .me Willos shot him with a pistol (Story was Interrupted ihera while there was an argument aB U who killed Win, "Kelly didn't have any gun until we got Inside of tower No. 1. We had to go through tower No. 1 and drop from the wall to gain our liberty. Ily llhe time we went through this tower, tho bullet,) were coming fast from the outside of iihe Iron fence and In the garage. Five or six shooting at us on the way through. I p'-hed up Guard Sweeney's (of tower No. 1) rifle. We ail dropped to the ground outside. Jones, Willos and I were on the ground and I called to Lute Savage, who was standing in the garage, to come over to inhere we 'were, as we wanted him for pr i tectlon from tho bullets from the other gua:ds. Me wouldn't rmne, so I took line shot at 'him with my pistol. Whether I hit him or not I don't know. i'.ld I'liietvell to Jones "About this tlinii Jones was shot In tho lde somewhere (there was a llllle (argument about where he was shot), about Unit tints Wlllol and I started for uunihci' 2 tower, along lhe sldewall. us I'lls was tho best route for our gotnivev. Kc'ly stopped lo shake hands with Jones, Jones said: "Tell the boys lo play careful and not make It more than vac." Jones (hen took tho gun and Hired a ieUd of buoktihot through Holm, ufs head, who was silling up against the wall. Made hint uncon scious of w'uit iwm going on around bin. (Murray liuerrupted here to tell Newman that they were lolling him lhe Hod's truth.) Murray said: ::1 want my mother to read It." "Kelly thou picked up lhe rihol gun, which waa empty, and follow ed Willos and 1 ptist No. 2 lower toward the Insane inylitm. Coniiiuiuileer Aulo (NV,vman asked him what No, 2 tower had been doing all this bltllO. ) "No. 2 tower was descried, and .someone wearing a dark suit was running toward the Insane asylum ahead of us. We thought H tho gilird from No. 2 post, although we would not swear to It, as pye were not sure. We never did notice any shots coming from No. 2 tower, nnd he could have shot at US when 1 (thiol at I. uto Savage.

The last wo oaw of Jones he. was sitting on the gruuid, fully oons.ious. and unaWc to walk, and if Slaughterhouse Davidson shot him he must have 'walked up on him ind shot him like a dog, giving 00 chance." Newman asked them is they could make any Individual statement and Murray said: "No, this goes for alt o( us. We all vouch tor It." New man akcd Murray: "What do you think of Dalrymple as la warden?" "He's as good a man as could be In the position. He's had a hard time during his administration and he has made tho best of a bad j:b." Warden Praised Willos was asked: "What do you thing of Dilryraple as a warden?" "According from what I faave learned from other prisoners who have miked for a coance to make good, he was all right." Newman asked: "Is he a good dls oipllnarlan?" Willos said: "Yes, sir, absolutely." Kelly was asked the same ques tion, "I think he Is very level head ed, (and I think he uses more com mon seiwc lilian some of his subor dinates." "What do you think of his action-: In the last showdown?"' "No otjher course to Hollow," said Willos. Newman asked Murray: "Was the break executed as plan ned?" Plans Altered "No, we planned to al''.de down the rope, go Into uhe turnkey's of fice, put the turnkey a:.d uny other civilians who might he there In front of us, mar. ill them otrulght toward No. 1 tower, using them as prJctec tlon, as Insurance against being shot at against the wall, disarm l ie guard i:n No. 1 tower, taking him with us If necessary, go to the pris on garage, take one of the fast prison cars and use that for our getawoy." Newman asked: "You didn't ex pect any Bhootlng?" .Murray: "No, at least, we didn't expect any guards waiting for us out In front. We hud no Intention of killing anyone." Newman; "Do you figure some one -informed on you?" Murray: "We don't know Just what to think, but we believe some one had tile wrong lip."

Same Fine Studebakers Prices Reduced Quality Maintained TIIKSK low prices arc not for new cars built to sell at new prices. They are (or Studcliaker cam identical with those which have been in tremendous demand at higher prices duting the past eleven months. They are for Sludcbaker cars so well built of such high ipialily materials that not profits during the past six months have averaged only Sl lO.til per car.

No '"yearly models" makes sales tmii Thus we were able last January to reduce prices already low. Then we announced that Studebaker would have no more "yearly models" to artificially depreciate cars in the hands of owners. Sales instantly started to soar and have forced the vast Studebaker plants to maintain peak pro duction, throughout the summer, in the (ace of declining production for the industry In general. To one-profit savings we thus add savings due to long continued peak production.
