xtend his hand with this gun between two other men's
heads. He reached as far as he could with it. The end of that gun was
probably six feet raised to the level of his eye; he took a good aim.
Everybody was watching the Colonel.

The moment I saw that arm go up I remember distinctly the flourishing
of the gun almost in my face, and at the same time somebody else jumped
from the other end of the machine. We were all on the ground together
and then Sergeant Murray came up and Murray and I took the man over to
the Colonel's seat, Murray having him by the arm and I by the throat.
Mr. Martin had him by the other arm.

The Colonel said, "Bring him to me, bring him here," and we bent his
head back so the Colonel could see him. Then they began to shout,
"Lynch him, kill him."

The Colonel said, "Do not hurt him."

Before that, on the ground, the fellow tried to kick me and made it
more difficult for us to get the man, and as a result I got most of the
kicks.

After we took him to the Colonel, Sergeant Murray and I had a difficult
thing to get that man away. I shouted to Murray: "Into the kitchen."

We fought our way through the dining room into the kitchen with two or
three hundred fellows. Murray left the man in my care until he called
the patrol wagon. Then I started for the Auditorium. After we went to
the kitchen I searched the man again for possible other weapons. I did
not find anything. He said: "My gun is gone; your people took it away
from me."

I forced him down into a chair and held him down until the police got
back.

(Mr. Zabel)--Did you notice the police protection?

(Answer)--They did not have enough men to keep the crowd away from the
side of the Colonel. I think it was one of the ex-President's party who
walked along side of the ex-President. When I got to the hotel I was of
course pretty busy with the Colonel, and Sergeant Murray was there.
Someone asked me to see if he could not get an officer to go with the
carriage to the Auditorium and walk on the side the ex-President was. I
called the Sergeant and he said he would find a man for me there. As to
how many men were there, I do not remember. I know Sergeant Murray was
there and I saw one other man.

(Mr. Zabel)--Any policeman assisting you and the sergeant in making the
arrest of this fellow?

(Answer)--There was another officer there when we started to th
