Arrests.
Temple July 6. The city was sud-
denly thrown into a furore yesterday
afternoon when the Teport was cir-
culated that Mayor Hamill had heen
shot' As is usual in such cases there
were wild reports and rumors which
suggested that there would be more
trouble but beyond discussion of the
event there was nothing further to dis-
turb the peace. "he shooting occur-
red in Mr. Hamill's.drug store.
The particulars of the affair "are
g related in statements made fcy the
mayor and marshal". There is some
conflict in thoso statements yet as
to the actual assault there is virtual
agreement and the versions are giv-
en herewith.
Mr. Hamill suffered a shot wound
in the hand the bullet glancing his
chest and drawing blood but not
penetratfng. The pistol with "which
the shooting was done was found as
asserted by the marshal to be jam-
med. It was a .32 automatic and a
shell became- lodged so firmly tha't
the mechanism would not work. Only
one shot was fired.
The wound in the band was se-
vere the bullet plowing its way
through the palm and shattering the
bone of the middle finger.
" Complaints charging assault with
intent to murder were lodged in Jus-
tice Smith's court ' against "Doc"
Flewellen 'Tatty Perkins and Mar-
shal Gambill. The last named com-
plaint was made by Mayor Hamill
and the warrant of arrest was served
late in' the afternoon. All . the parties
arraigned on this charge were releas-
ed on execution of bonds in sum of
$500 each. The grand jury will
handle the matter and will make the
investigations examining trials being
-waited in justice court On ac-
count of there being no testimony
taken there is not presented state-
ments of -witnesses of whom there
rwere several the main story being
brought out in the statements of the

fects of opiates administered during
the cleansing and dressing of his
wound.' He stated that his physician
had instructed him to remain in bed
for an Indefinite length of time.
His version of the affair was re
lated circumstantially and in its sa
uent points it was suDstantiauy as
follows:
"I had received information from
a .prominent citizen that a guest in
the Martin hotel had said that gamb
ling had been carried on last Sunday
in the room occupied by Flewellen
and Perkins in the natatorium build
ing. I reported the complaint to the
lessee of the building but did not se-
cure co-operation in that quarter. I
Intended pursuing the subject further
along this line but in the meantime
Doc Flewellen and Perkins came to
the drug store. 1 told Flewellen of
the complaint that had reached me
and he insisted on going to the party
who had informed me of the matter.
I did not want to bring in the infor7
mant but told him that the man
who had alleged he saw the gambling
could be found. Thereupon Flewellen
applied vile epithets to me and sim-
ultaneously we struck at each other
over the counter and show case which
separated us. At about the same in
stant he fired at me the bullet going
.through my left hand and graz-
ing my chest I dropped behind the
counter to get out of range and on
all-fours made my way to the outlet
between two counters. As I emerged
I grappled with him as he was strug-
gling with Marshal Gambill. I grab-
bed after his pistol with my right
hand and on account of the left hand
being out of commission I tried to
butt and bite him he meantime
raining blows across my face and
head with the pistol. I succeeded in
getting hold of the nistol and was
struggling with Flewellen with Per-
kins at the same time striking me on
the head when Marshal Gambill re-
leased his hold on Flewellen and
went to the other side of the store. I
called to him for God's sake to take
the pistol from neweuen ana not ai-
low the two of them to beat me up

learn that Reed's wife had left him

land one oMhem with a. pistol trying
to kill me. I am positive that I had
hold of the pistol while Gambill was
across the room.
I keep a pistol at about the center
of a counter next to the-one where
the difficulty started and some dis-
tance away. I did not havo opportu-
nity to go after it as the shot was
fired across the back counter and to
have gone for my pistol I should havo
been obliged to expose myself'to be-
ing shot in the back. Flewellen con-
tinuing to snap his pistol instead I
dropped behind the counter to avoid
the bullets and crawled to where I
could get out in the open and grapple
with him. I did not go after my pis"-
tol which was some eight or ten feet
from where the shooting opened up."'
Regarding the other parties whose
connection with the affair have been
commented on "Sir. Hamill
stated
that Mr. Wilson was standing near
his front cigar case when Flewellen
and Perkins entered but that he took
no part in the assault. Other matters
bearing more or less directly on the
matter were spoken of; but the ac-
count is curtailed to that portion re-
lating to the actual assault and the
incident which led to it. Mr..Hamlll
has employed attorney W. 0. Cox to
represent fhim in the prosecution of

Statement from Marshal Gambill.
To a Daily Telegram reporter yes-
terday evening Marshal Gambill gave
out the following statement regard-
ing the difficulty:
'Officer Gray and myself drove up:
to the drug store in a buggy. I went
in and had a little talk with Mayor
Hamill about a fight that had taken
place up at the new government
building and when I went into the-
drug store I saw Doc Flewellen Leon
Wilson and- Mr. (Fatty) Perkins
standing at or near the counter op-
poslte Hamlirs desk. I attended to
mv business with the mayor and as
. T T i-
I turned to leave I remarked to Doc
Flewellen: "What are you doing
here? Been fighting?" He replied
that he had not that he had jxS
more money to pay put for fights"and
had cut it out. Officer Gray and my-
self then walked out of the building
and I paused for a moment on the
sidewalk In front and while there
heard loud talking In the drug store.
I turned and started back and as I
entered the door saw Flewellen slap
the mayor across the counter and
Mr. Hamill slapped him back then
both reached for their guns at the
same time and Flewe Ien was quick- Qm qt hg Jn
est I saw Flewellen's pistol as he.. .
fired. Hamill dropped to the floor
and Flewellen started to walk toward
the front but was met at the first
opening in the counter by Hamill
who .had come up back of the show
case. Here the two men clinched In
a close hand-to-hand fight. I got
hold of Fiewellens gun which he was
attempting to use and finally suc-
ceeded in twisting it out of his hand
1 then released him long enough to
run across the store and put the gun
behind the opposite counter. I rushed
back to the combatants.. and with the
assistance of Dr. Hawkes succeeded
in separating the men. While I was
gone across the room the Mayor kept
calling to me to get Dock's gun he
not knowing that I had it already. I
then asked Mr. Perkins to 'holcT
j Mayor Hamill and I took Flewellen
out of the store and up
Smith's office where I
to Judgo
made two
complaints against him one for as-
sault with Intent to murder and one
for carrying a pistol. Judge Smith fix
ed his bond at $500 in the first case
and $200 in the second which bonds
he gave."
