BINGHAM UTAH. Nov. 30. -
While Ralph Lopez, the slayer of six
men. was attempting to batter down
a bulkhead at the entrance of the
tunnel in the Utah-Apex mine to
day a posse penetrated an incline
and brought out the bodies of Depu
ty Sheriffs Dulgas Hulsey and Toni
Nadrtch, who were killed by the de
perado in a subterranean tight yes
terday afternoon. A development
late to-day was the report that Mike
Cranovich, who shot and seriously
wounded his wife several days ago,
also is a fugitive in the mine and is
co-operating with Lopez.
Two deputies on guard at the
mouth of the mine opened fire w ith
rifles when l^opez began breaking
down the bulkhead and he retreated
into the mine after prying away one
board. That lie is suffering from
hunger is the belief of the officers, as
he has been in the mine with only a
small supply of food since Thursday.
Hundreds of Americans and for
eigners begged in a dozen different
tongues to-day for the opportunity
to search the mine for the murderer.
Only five, led by E. P. Strauper,
Mayor-elect of Bingham, were al
lowed to penetrate the workings. Af
ter making two attempts they
brought out the bodies which had
been dragged by Lopez some distance
up an incline.
Outwitted repeatedly since Lopez
began his career of bloodshed on No
vember 21. the pursuing sheriffs of
seven counties to-day decided to but
ten up the mine and attempt to
asphyxiate the fugitive with poison
ous gases. Accordingly fourteen of
the fifteen exits were stopped with
bulkheads and the work of prepara
tion for forcing >n gas is under way.
