Deputy Sheriff Henry Brahil cht, who ‘had been sleeping in the jail since the commitment of x0 many murdess, thinking some one was escaping from the jail, fired two shots out of the window to alarm City Marshal Parks and Deputy Sherff Red’orl. He_then opened the doors and was immedi- ately held up by the mob, who took the keys from him and entered the jail.

He was told that the “job” had been done. By this time the greater part of the mob had disappeared, leaving only about thirty or forty men on guard, who soon left after the sher'ff ar- rived.

Peck ad- mits the correctness of the report that he has resigned as general solicitor of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe system, and will soon assume the position of general counsel of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railvay company. Mr. Peck, when asked whether the report about his leaving the Santa Fe and going with the Milwaukee & St. Paul was true, said inasmuch as the cat had been let out of the bag there was no use in denying it, although it was not the iutention to allow the matter to be made public just yet, as he would not leave the Santa Fe and commence service with the Milwaukee & St. Paul until September 13 His resignation had been tendered to Judge Caldwell a short time ago, and a day or two ago the latter reluctantly and regret- fully aceepted it. In a personal Caldwell pays a most Mr. Peck’s great ability and the most ef- ficlent work he has done in the service of the company and the ald and assistance he has rendered to him (Judge Caldwell) and the receivers. He expressed the hope that, though Mr. Peck was taking service with another company, he would be able to give advice and “ssistance to the judge and re- ceivers untll the reorganization Is com- pleted. When asked to give his reasons for leaving the Santa Fe, Mr. Peck said shortly after the deqth of Judge Carey the president of the Milwaukee & St. Paul askea him whether he would consider a proposal to take the position of general counsel for the Milwaukee & St. Paul Rallway company. He did not at the time feel Inclined to give up his position on the Santa Fe on account of the pending reorganization, and his long connection with the company. The induce- ments offered were, however, of such a na- ture that in justice to himselt and his fam- ily"he could not refuse to accept the position tendered him by the Milwaukee & St. Paul company.
