(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, PENN INSUR^fCE CASE.

ESCAPED, BUT WEREJAUGHT 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 managed to get away In the after 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. Thirty Years Together.
