NINE KILLERS | AWAIT DEATH IN COLORADO Cell House Too Small for Men Caught in Net of Western Law By V. J. Ilallor in lil'nlled Press Staff Correspondent) Canon City, Colo . May 9 (UP) — | The old wi st known by the James | boys, “Wild Bill" Hickock. ’’Cuttle I Kate," and "Poker Face Allee" pass|ed Into oblivion a quar <-r century ago, but Colorado juries have demonstrated that the swift justice meted out by frontiersmen still is extant Wl h almost the same precision pioneers held court in a natural sett lug along the shores of the stream or beneath the cool shade of a tfe<, and sentenced cattle rustlers and aor e thieves o die with a hempen >oose aroutpl their necks, Colorado juries In recent months have imposed the death penalty on nine men charged with murder. At the present time, these nine I are awaiting execution in the Colorado penitentia’y here. The death | house was built for four, back in lie days when there was little use for such quarters, since tiie law and order elements had their own way oi dispensing justice. Under he present system of jur spi udence, condemned slayers have the advantage of u prolonged legal fight. Thus today Patrick J. Hamo. k, sp«< ial deputy warden of the lenitentiary. Is confronted wi h a lion eing problem—a death homie . | twice too small." The must despe:ate of tiie doomed criminals are confined in the . death house, while the others are I kept in solitary cells in other parts . of the prison. , This year promises to be the busi- . ist a state hangman in Colorado has ever known. If all nine convicted . murders are hanged, it will be one- , third of tiie number executed since the sta e penitentiary was opened. The previous high number of executions for one year is four—set in I 1896 and duplicated in 1905. j Tiie list includes six bank bandits who tried to emulate some of he “bad boys” of the ’Bo’s. Most notorious of the sextet are the □ three Lamar. Colo., bandits, Ralph s Fleagle, known, among tiie ranch-e.-s near the Colorado-Kansas line , as the “Old Gray Wolf.” “Big Boy" Herbert L Royston, and George J H Abshier. ’. The Lamar trio killed three offi cials of the First National Bank ol Lamar and a Dighton, Kans., ]ihy sician hey got out of bed at mid v night to minister to Rovston who had been shot, "Little Jake" Flea gie, brother of Ralph, aided in tin '. subsequent slayings, but tie escaped and ’■ as been too wily to lie captured. There is a standing offer of $5. II poo to the person who brings ‘Little ' Jake" in dead or alive. Tiie newcomers to death row were three Manter, Kansas haul, bandits. They are John Walker. An '• .new Halliday, and Clyde (Shortyl Y Ray. They were sentenced to hang " ior the murder of Depu y Sherill '■ I'o.al Hickman of Eads, Colo., whi " tried to stop them in thei. mad fighl '■ across Colorado after robbing the '' Manter state bank of $4,000. 1 is probable the Manter trio wil ■ ; e haaged on the same day. if they " .re it will be the first triple execu 1 ion in Colorado since 1896. The oilier three awaiting execu ’’ .ion are Harold Weiss, an epileptic; Amelio Herrera, bewildered Mexi an, and William Moya. Wiess am Herrera were sen euced to die toi killing their wives. Moya liackti ■ i.e.ap, nccenti ic Denver re ,-m to death. There has been one execution al tiie peniteiilia. y since the first o he year.
