HE REFUSED TO TEYDER IT,
AND THEN THEN REDUCED
RIB SALARY AND TOOK HIS
TEAM FROM HIM.
(From Tuesday'* Daily !
The climax In the row between
Hoad Superintendent Murray and.
three members of the county com
missioners occurred yesterday af
ternoon when the commissioners
asked Mr. Murray to resign his po
sition as road superintendent. Mr.
Murray Informed them that he
would not do so.
Then the commissioners decided
to cut his salnry from 1100 to $25 a
month and also to relieve him of
horse and buggy which the
county furnishes him. It Is under
stood that Mr. Murray Intends to
hold on to the Job In spite of the
cut In salary. He is with the gang
today and Chairman Coffee ta also
our there looking after the work.
It Is very rvldent that there is
no healing the breach which has
i made. It has been growing
over since the present board of
county commissioners were sworn
Into office and was caused partly by
himors that were gotten out at the
time to the effect that he new board
would make a change In the auper-
Imendeney of the convicts. It la
said that Superintendent Murray
felt that some of the members were
Ms enemies and that the relations
between him and them were strain
ed. They were not on the same
wires, as It were.
The meeting of the commissioners
yesterday was a. regular meeting,
hat It was known that there was
'vouhle on hand for Superintendent
Murray. He knew.lt and members
of the hoard knew It. The prison
commission knew that there was
"rtrtlon and Inspector Monk was on
hand to attend the meeting.
Some of the Verbal Spats.
After taking a recess for dinner
yesterday, the county commission
ers went back to their room to take
up the matter they had under con
sideration during the morning—vis.,
the breach which had occurred be
tween Superlntepdent J. W. Murray
end County Commissioner Coffee.
As stated yesterday, the crisis
wan brought about by a letter which
the superintendent, who Is also the
nty warded, wrote to the prison
commission, ‘complaining because
Chairman Coffee took two of tho
convicts from "under the guns."
Tho chstrman said tbs two con
victs wore two boys, who were put
*o doing some other work, and were
not taken from nnder the guns.
There was a good deal of cross-
firing between the commissioners
end tho superintendent at the morn-
sosslon. tho superintendent be-
hseked np by Commissioner
Tnnchtone, who constantly referred
lo the $4.50 a day which Chairman
Coffeo gets for his work when he Is
on tho roods. “Cut out that and
you will get rid of all the trouble,"
sntd Mr. Tonchtone.
It was quite evident that the
breech was one that could not
no easily healed. The commission
ers who wore against the superin
tendent, Messrs. Coffee, Marshal and
Sims—were against him good and
strong, and they hasod their oppo
sition to him on the work which had
neon done In their districts. "I
know that some people think that
nobody but Mr. Murray can build a
a. hut we will show them differ
ently," said Mr. Sims. ,r We In
tend to Improve the service, hasten
tho work and save the county
money. Chairman Coffee can put
more life In the read gang than
anybody,” said he, "and that la why
f Invited him to look after the work
In my district."
‘I had trouble with Mr. Murray
when he was In my district," said
Ht\ Marshall, "and that la why I
want a change. He waa dlsconr-
feous to me, ao much so that I told
Vfw Coffee to come to my dlatrlet
look after the work, aa I did
■ rare to he thrown Into a clash
h Murray or hi treated with dis
respect hr him.”
ff*Vr Marshall mnda a statement
ahtjnt like this at the meeting In the
morning when Mr. Murray waa
thfre, asking for the charses which
,wwLi to he made against him.
Haven't T always spoken to yon
when yon came np—didn’t I say
•good mornfngT'~
"Yea, you said ‘good morning,’ ”
relumed Mr, 'Marshall, "but your
manner waa not what It might have
been.”
r "What did you expect me to do—
Min up and kiss you?’* askdd Mr.
Murray, with a certain amount of
dizain.
“No, I didn’t expect that, but I
ecu Id see by the manner that you
spoke to others that you were dls-
pleased at my being there. That is
why I wanted Mr. Coffee to look af
ter the work. leMfught maybe you
and him could get on better than
you and I could.”
Speaking of tho work which Mr.
Coffee Is doing as chairman of the
hoard, one\ of the men said: ”1
would not get np In the morning
like he does and spend the day In
the hot sun. furnishing my own
hors* and buggy, eating convict
grub and making the sacrifices he
dees for three times $4.50 a day,
and when I think of the vast
amount (the county Is paying for
rond work I think she Is fortunate
to have a commissioner who takes
so much pride Iff 'iifa work as to
lock after. It aa Chairman Coffee
does.”
In the meantime, neartv eve-y-
bodv has. words of oralee for Super
intendent Murray’s week. They
believe he Is a good tnan, and there
Is much regret that he and the
hoard of commission era are not able
to get along together,

ESCAPED, BUT

While Row was on Two
Life Men Left Camps
ONE OF THEM WAS CAUGHT IN
MUD SWAMP WHILE THE OTH.
fit RETURNED OF HIS OWN
ACCORD TO CAMPS.
(From Tuesday’s Dally.)
While the county commissioners
and the convict warden were wrang
ling yesterday In the court house,
two of the life convicts, who were
at work on the public road between
this city and Rock Ford, broke for
linerty and managed to effect their
escape, though they were arrested
Inter.
The convicts were In charge of a
green man, due to the fact that
Deputy Warden Harden resigned
several days ago, and the scrape
superintendent, Mr. Bethea, quit
last Saturday night. Warden Mur
ray knew that trouble was likely to
ensue, so he cautioned the guard to
keep the men bunched, even If they
did not do much work. Convict In
spector Monk was also at the camps
nd told fhe guards to look after
ho men closely, whether they did
But in spite of

noon. The dogs were iput upon
their tracks'and one. of them was
caught, while, the other ran to the
camp voluntarily, having grown
weary trying to escape.
The one who was captured waa
found In Mud Swamp standing In
mud up to his chin, while the dogs
were baying him as though he had
been a regular swamp varmint.
Where this negro was caught was
a treacherous place In the swamp,
place where the morasses, mosses
and leaves made it difficult to tell
where the ground was solid and
where there were deep lagoons. It
said that the undergrowth and
the trash Is so deep there that one
in stand on it and see It vibrato a
hundred feet away.
This negro had made his way
through the swamp as far as he
could, and in doing so had stepped
off in water and mud that almost
engulfed him. The other negro,
when he saw tho dangers that con
fronted him, derided to go back >o
the camp, and reached there before
the one who waa captured did.
