Once there, it would be an easy matter to locate the man, if he was in the lower part of the house, and a ‘chance to get a shot at him was bound to present itself sooner or later, The thing was done while Reeves, suspicions of an attack in front, watched the enemy there. Gordon and Vail heard Reeves walking up and down atairs in the ‘house, but didn’t dare to leave cover to reconnoitr a shutter on the second floor, walk across the room and start down the LICHTHING BOLT | ‘WTS TEUTONG Finally wey heard him close “He's coming down; now's our chance,” said Gordon, and the two dep- uties left the cover of the woodshed and tiptoed to the kitchen window, where Gordon put the nose of his gun through.

Reeves was a pitiable signt. with the cold, his whole body racked with pain, he mumbled: “I surrender,” in a dazed sort of a way, and then went down under the weight of the strong men who rushed at him, Handcuffed hands and feet, a rope around. his body, the helpless man wae bundled into a wagon and taken to Riverhead. He raved and swore on the trip over, tore away the bandages that had been put over his wounds, despite his manacled hands, and hed to be held in the wagon. Reeves refused to make any statement before Coroner Petergon and was held for further examination next Monday. Accompanied by the under Sheriff, an Evening World reporter inter- viewed the alleged insane murderer in the Riverhead Jail this afternoon. “I won't talk about myself,” he said. tired and sick; my head pains me and I want to be left alone. sleep much last night. ‘I lay down but could not sleep. “It was cold, yes.

Don’t talk to me.’ REEVES’S RUSE NEARLY SUCCESSFUL. Shortly before the Sheriff ordered the rush on the house Reeves, who had not been able to get a bead on his watcher in ‘his cunningness a ruse which came near being the death of some of them.

The first fire of the night came from Reeves when Sheriff Preston and his posse made their appearance in a body. get him and he shouted from a window in the front of the house: you come on my property: A moment later he esphasized this command with a charge from his shotgun, and this bid of deflance was answered with rifles and pistols by The Sheriff told his men that they must try to get the old farmer alive, if possible, but that this did not mean that they should not defend themeelves. It was first planned that a portion of the posses should keep up a fusil- lade on the upper part of the building while others should try to batter in The attempt to carry this plan into effect |¢ ended by the murderer routing the attackers fom his kitchen window on the fist floor where he had killed Capt. Rafford. His fire was so hot that they were compelled to withdraw. ‘There was a constant firing kept up until 10 o'clock, when Sheriff Preston withdrew his forces beyond the line of danger and went to River- head, three miles away, to hold a conference with the District-Attorney.

The stock of the posso began to run low at this juncture, and for an hour they had to withdraw again to await a replenishment. About 2 o'clock 200 rounds were sent from Riverhead, and a fire of renewed vigor was begun, It did not bring Reeves into view, however, or accomplish anything, and suddenly, after a silence in the house, which lasted five or ten min- utes at the most, but which seemed like hours, the murderer appeared at a most unexpected point In the upper story and let both barrels of his shot- He fired at random, his only mark being the flame he had seen follow the discharge of a deputy’s pistol or rifle.
