MILLER IS HELD
... WITHOUT BAIL
Murderer of J. F. Turley Final-
ly Locked In the Connty
Jail.—Allowed Liberty
of the City
SLEPT IN HIS OWN HOME
At the formal inquisition held over
the body of X P. Turley, who was
shot down in the Family saloon, on
the corner of Overland and Leon
streets Monday night by Max Miller,
Justice Mitchell yesterday gave a
verdict that the deceased came to
hts death from the effects of a gun
shot wound, inflicted in cold blood
by Max Miller and held the defend-
ant to the grand Jury without hall.
After hearing the testimony of the
tear eye-witnesses to the tragedy
Attorney A. Jones for the prosecvttlon
moved that t the prisoner. Miller/ he
held to the grand jnry without baO.
Mr. Jones quoted law to the effect
that when there appears sufficient
testimony before the coroner ad-
duced that the defendant under ar-
rest and In custody did in fact, hill
the deceased, R shall then bfe wfthin
the power of the coroner to admit
the prisoner to bail except In’ cases
subject Co capital punishment, when
It shall be within the power of the
coroner to commit the prisoner to
jail without bond.
"We think,” began Mr. Jones, “that
if there ever was a case where there
was sufficient evidence adduced at
the coroner’s inquest to show the
prisoner under arrest and In custody
did in fact commit the murder. It Is
in this case. We believe that If there
ever was a case where the proof was
so evident that the murder was com-
mitted in cold blood It was in this
case. Cold blooded murder Is under
the -statutes of this state a capital of-
fense; therefore we ask that the pris-
oner in custody be committed with-
out bail.
“Picture this man fleeing for his
life; dodging behind the first thing
that presents itself for shelter; pur-
sued by his murderer: commanded to
get up and when he does so, is shot
down, pleading for his life with his
last breath. That, your honor, is
cold blooded murder, punishable by
death.”
Judge Mitchell asked if he would
have the authority to commit the
prisoner at an inquisition and was
told that this was entirely with him.
when in his judgment the matter of
the guilt of the prisoner In custody
was established.
“I hold, then,” said Justioe Mltclf-
ell, "that the deceased, J. F. Turley,
came to his death as the result of a
a dozen men. The prisoner was al-
lowed to go to hts saloon, the Legal
Tender, where he attended to some
business and had several drinks.
Later in custody and company of
Officer Rynerson the prisoner was
taken to his home on Leon street.
Several men declare that they saw
Deputy Constable Rynerson In com-
pany with Miller a short time before
4 o’clock Tuesday morning going in
the direction of his home.
Fiiteen minutes later, at least threa
men declare they saw Rynerson re-
turn from the direction of Miller’s
home and Miller did not accompany
him. ’Rynerson himself got In a hack
which stands on El Paso street and
was driven home.
A railroad man who works for the
Santa Fe Railroad company and who
rooms at the Mansion honae oq West
Ov4rland street, declares that he saw
Miller at C o’clock coming from the
direction of his home. He wag at
that time unattended and carried his
coat over his arm, walking up the
street in a nonchalant manner.
At 0:15, or thereabouts, Miller was
seen to enter the Old Kentucky Home
saloon oh Utah street, it la positively
asserted by several, in company with
several men.
Jfitkr was not placed In the county
jail until 7:30, according to Jailer Co-
nant
“Depoty Constable Rytterson came
to the jail with Millet’ at 7:30 o'clock
Tuesday looming,” skid Mr. Conant.
“At that time Rynerson said to me:
Don’t lock him up; I’ll be back for
him to an hour or so.’ ”
Orest indignation was expressed
yesterday on every hand at the liberty
that was accorded Miller by the offi-
cer who had him to custody on a war-
rant charging him with cjld-blooded
murder, issued by the justice of the
peace who refused to allow the pri»
oner bond. Rynerson declares that
he was told- by Justice Mitchell that
it would be all right for film to guard
Miller. This is denied.
Constable Mammy Clements yester-
day issued a statement in which he
declares that he knew nothing of t*ie
liberty that was accorded Miller by
his subordinate. His statement is as
follows: -
A. CARD TO THE PUBLIC.
It Is due to myself, to my friends
and to the suffrage that elected me to
the office I hold, to explain that I had
nothing whatever to do with nor any
knowledge of the guarding of Max
Miller about the street last night aft-
er the tragedy at the “Family Saloon.”
I was notified of the killing at 4
o’clock this morning and Immediately
came to town and placed Miller In
jail. Mf. CLEMENTS,
Constable.
Rynerson said last night that he
could not sea where he had done
wrong and that he would do the same
thing over.
Miller last night slept in a cell at
the county jail and it Is stated that
Ills attorneys will probably make no
attempt to secure bond at this time.
At the coroner’s inquast yesterday
before Justice Mitchell, the following
testimony was adueed. This was last
night verified and signed by the wit-
nesses to the murder. The testimony
follow’s:
Mnanrog, proprietor of the
gun shot wound inflicted in cold family saloon, in which the murdet
blood and without cause or provoca- occurred, made substantially the fol-
tion by Max Miller, and 1 hold the lowing statement:

and Miller was taken back to the
county jail by Constable Clements.
For the prosecution as they were
lined up yesterday were A. Jones and
Harris Walthal assisting County At-
torney Maurv Kemp.
For the defense appears Judge
Frank G. Morris, M. W. 9tanton and
George O. Sweeney.
It is understood that several lead-
ing attorneys of El Paso have prof-
fered their services in the prosecu-
tion. One of the first to do this was
the iaw firm of McFarland and Mc-
Farland. The railroad men of El
Paso have started a movement to
raise a fund by popular subscription
to assist in the prqpecution. The
Tennessee society, it is also stated
will take a hand in the prosecution.
After his delivery to Deputable Con-
stable Rynerson Tuesday morning at
3 o’clock, who presented a warrant
at the city jail, Max Miller was al-
lowed the freedom of the town, ac-
cording to the statements of at least
*
’I saw the killing last night and
saw all the things that led up to the
killing.”
"Do you know who shot Mr. Tur-
ley?" asked Attorney Jones.
“Max Miller," was the prompt an-
swer.
“Now I will tell the facts as I know
them. I will begin at the beginning
and tell of everything that led up to
the shooting. *
"Last night shortly after 10 o'clock
a party of four boys who sometimes
some into my place were in the back
room playing cards for the beer. I
was getting anxious to close up and
they were keeping me late. Shortly
after 10 o’clock,*as I have said, Mrs.
Max Miller, that is, [ have always
known her as Mrs. Miller, came from
the direction of her home on Leon
street to my place. I was at that
time standing out irf front of the sa-
loon. She said to me:
” ’Mr. Manning, you’re keeping

“Boys’ it’s time all you married men
were at home," She said several oth-
er words which I did not catch, and
just about this time Max Miller came
down the street from the direction
or the town. 1 said to him:
"Max, you’re home pretty early to-
night.”
.“Yes,” he said. "You’re out late,
aren’t you?’’
“Yes.” I said. ”I’ve been trying bo
get rid of that gang for an hour so
that I could close up."
At this Miller looked through the
door to the saloon and he could see
his wlfe-ln thare. With a wave of his
hand he then said:
"See, now, what I’ve got to put up
with.’’ '
With this-he started into the saloon
and I told him' not to go to the place,
fearing that he might raise a disturb-
ance. He declared that he was going
to there and bring his wife out.
“Hold this bundle and t’H go in,”
he said. With this he handed me a
bundle, in which there were a number
of newspapers and 1 do not know
what else. He then entered the sa-
loon and I heard his voice on the
inside. In a mlnfite he and his wife
tame out of the saloon, and as he
reached the curb he drew a revolver
from his pocket and struck her over
the head with It. The woman stag-
gered and fell against a posfr that
stands sthere. Miller then struck her
again, this time in the face, as near
as I could Judge. The two then went
across the street In the direction of
their home. I do not sfly that they
went home, but they went in that di-
rection.
In about ten or fifteen minutes they
came back. This time I was behind
the bar, Mlll. r walked up to me
and said:
“Joe (that’s what he calls his wife)
says that what you told me Is a lie.”
I asked him what It was and he
said that his wife denied that I had
been trying to get her to go home
for an hour.
I then told him that I had reH5renr.=
to the boys that were playing for the
drinks and that I had been trying to
get rid of them all for an hour so
that I could go home. The woman
then said tha( she wanted td prove
bv me that she had not been buying
drinks for the boys who were playing
in the back room.
“Mux says that I have been buying
beer for them with hts money,” she
said. “I want to prove by you that
T haven’t." I told them that she had
bought no drinks for the men and at
this junctor,- some one of the four
who were playing cards, I do not
know who it. was, shouted rfom the
back room:
“Mr. Miller, Mrs. Miller hasn’t
bought a drink for anyone in this
house,”
"Dry Up, you - -. I don’t.
know who you are, but don’t butt in,”
shouted Miller.
Whoever it was that spoke from
the back room said no more and Mil-
ler turned again to his wife and said
that they were all a pack of liars,
and that he knew d—1—n well that
she had been spending his money
buying drinks for that crowd. He
then asked me who they were, and
I told him that they were all working
men and good fellows, every one.
About this time Mr. Turley said :
“Mr. Miller, you're mistaken. We
are- all working men, and can buy our
own beer and are too much of a gen-
tleman to allow a lady to lmy beer
for ns.”
Miller then drew his revolver and
shouted:
“You are a G—d d-n---
- and a liar.”
When Miller drew his gun l could
tell that Mr. Turley got up and as 1
was standing behind the bar I saw
him duck behind this in a crouching
attitude, seeking protection that the
bar would offer from the bullets. Mil-
ler wag standing on the outside of tho
bar, Just onposite where Turley sat
crouched. Turley said:
“Fod God’s sake. Miller, don’t shoot
me. I have no gun and don’t, want
to fight.’’
"Get up. you G—d d-n - —
----” said Miller.
At this Turley started to rise, start-
ing to say something as he got. up
“Mr. Miller—” At this instant. Mil-
ler fired and Mr. Turley fell ovor dead,
the senfenc- on his lips never being
completed. Tnrley, who was standing
beside me »t he rose, fell with his
hesd away from me and his feet at
my feet. After firing the-. shot -Miller
walked aronnd behind the bar where
I was standing and brushing me
roughly aside walked to where the
prostrate form of his victim lay and
said:
“Get up, yon -----, you’re
nrtt hit.”
“Yes he is, Max; you’vfc killed him,”
f said.
Miller stooped down and almost Im-
mediately turned and left, the room.
1 then left the saloon and went to
telephone the police. About ten min-
ute* afterward Miller was arrested—
well, you might call It arrested, but I
don't.
This completed Mr. Manntn’s state-
ment. G. W. Blakey, who was one
of the players In the card game to
the rear room, was the next witness.
He stated that he had for the past
two years been switch crew foreman
for the Santa Fe, but had not worked
since April 26 last, on account of be-
ing afflicted with locomotor ataxia.
He corroborated all of Mr. Manning's
testimony as effected the occurrence*
to the saloon.
His statement was substantially as
follows:
Mr. Censor, Mr. Turley, Mr. Abbott
and myself were playing cards for the
drinks in the room back of tho bar
of the Family Saloon at the corner
of Ov.'rland and Leon streets. Some-
time shortly after 10 o'clock Mrs. Mil-
ler came back and stood in the cur-
tained doorway which separated the
card room from the main part of the
saloon. As she came up she said:
"It's time you married men were
at home.” One of the crowd said:
"We are going right after this game.”
The woman then added:
“We married women have a hard
life, our husbands coming home at all
hours of the night. Here comes Mr.
Miller now,' she said.
At this Miller stepped into the room
and said to his wife:
"tt’a your neat move." With this j
he struck her and the two passed out j
Into the main portion of the saloon.
I heard fhe woman remonstrating
with Miller and asking him not to
hit her any more.
Jt must have been ten or fifteen |
minutes later. I do not know the exact
time, that Miller and his wife returned
to the saloon. We were still playing
the same game as on the previous
visit.
The two began to talk to Mr. Man-
ning about the woman buying drinks
for us and the woman denying. It.
Finally Mr. Censor said:
”Mr. Miller, your wife has bought
no drinks for u.a”
“Dry up, you -- —--. I
don’t know who you are, but stop but-
ting la,” said Miller. Mr. Censor said
no more and the argument in the
main portion of the saloon continued.
In a minute Miller came almost to
the partition tkror. Mr. Turley then
sail:
“Mr. Miller, you are mistaken; Mrs.
Miller has bought no drinks for us.
We can buy our own drinks and are
gentlemen and would not allow a lady
to buy our drinks.”
Miller then drew his gnn, 1 am satis-
fied. although 1 did not see It. 1 base
ray judgment upon the actions of Mr.
Turley, who dodged and ducked be-
hind the bar.
Miller then said: “You are a O—d
d——n liar and a —— ---.”
Turley was at this time crouching
behind the bar and pleading for his
life.
“For God's sake. Miller, don't shoot
me. I haven’t a gun and don't want
to fight you.”
During all this time, on account of
my infirmity, 1 had kept my seat. As
Mr. Turley plead for his life Miller
urged him to get up from behind the
bar.
“Get up, you----,” Mil-
ler said.
At this Mr. Turley started to rise
«p. “Mr. Miller--” he started to
say, but -the words died on his lips
as Miller's gun rang out and Mr.
Turley pitched headlong toward me
and fell at my feet dead. He did not
groan or utter a word or sound after
the shot was fired. I was sitting
Where I could see behind the bar and
f saw Miller come around from in
front of the bar ami go behind it.
He roughly pushed Mr. Manning out
of\ the’way and walked up io the
prostrate form of the poor unfortu-
nate victim of his gun.
Miller raised his foot and kicked
his victim, saying:
“Get up, you -— — — -,
you're not hit.”
"Yes he is Max,” I said “You’ve
killed him.” Miller up to this time
had retained his gun in his hand and
as the blood started to gush from
Mr. Turley's body, the weapon slid
from Miller’s hand and In attempting
to pick It up he covered his hand
with blood. He then turned and left
the saloon. Mr. Blakey concluded
here and Mr. Abbott was called.
The witness stated that his name
was Eddie Abbott and that he was a
butcher by trade. That he had been
working In the grocery now known
as the Family grocery, which Is next,
door to the scene of the tragedy. He
stated that he had worked at his
present place for eleven months, but
not for the man who owns the place
now, the store having recently
changed hands. He said that he was
present when Max Miller murdered
J. F. Turley and that he saw it. His
testimony substantiated to n letter
and a word the statement made by
Mr. Blakey.
E. ,1. Censor, who said that ho was
a moulder employed by the El Paso
foundry, was the next witness. He
told of the entrance of Miller on
both the first and second occasions;
of his telling Miller that, the woman
had bought no drinks for the men
and of Miller having called him a vile
name. His story corroborated In Its
entirety the testimony of the other
two men In the card gamp, with the
exception that he did not see Mr,
Turley after he was shot. He was
present when the shot was fired, hut
did not, see It fired. He was positive
that Miller had his gun in his hand
at the time that he called Turley n
vile and unprintable name and saw
Turley duck under the bar for pro-
tection.
One of the attorneys for the defense
said yesterday:
"I notice that the Herald Is Inclined
to Insult any attorney who accepts
Max Miller as a client. II Is snffl
dent to say for the Information of
tho pin-headed critic that in Anglo-
Saxon countries a man accused of
crime must have counsel, and if he Is
not able to employ a respectable crim-
inal lawyer the court appoints a law-
yer to represent the defendant with-
out pay It is therefor, only proper
that If able to pay for II any defend-
ant should have representation of his
own choosing, to insure a fair trial;
and it is perfectly proper for any
reputable lawyer to accept such em-
ployment and toes, instead of being
forced to defend an alleged criminal
without pay. Only the spirit of law-
lessness would suggest that a man
hocused of a serious crime be deprived
of the right of defen&e.”
