NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS What Two Tramps Have to Say About tb Shooting of Brakeman Stuk. sbury- WERE FORCED TO JUMP FROM THE TRAIf Claim Unit the Injured Mnn Appronchci Them with a Itovnlier nnd Club Suspicion * Clrciimiiliiiii-c * Stir- roiimllnc the Ciuo , The two tranps who were found walklni along the track near Island park ycsterda ; morning Juat after the body of the woundoc brakeman , Stukesbury , was found , wen taken by the police officers yesterday am given a thorough quizzing. They were a first Inclined .to nave' nothing to saf , bu later on admitted that they were on the cai when thn brakeman' came among them Ho was armed with a revolver and club they claimed , and ordered them to climb t < the top of the box car next' to the flat _ cai upon which they were standing. They clfosi to Jump , and as the train was going at Un rate of thirty miles per hour they were con slderably skinned un when they rcachei terra flrma. * They claimed they did not hear the piste shot , but n pistol was found lying about 1G ( feet south of the place where they Jumpci off , nnd It was undoubtedly the pistol thai did the damage , for It had two omptj chambers. Stukesbury Is lying at the Woman'i Christian association hospital In Councl Bluffs , but Just how serious his wounds wll prove cannot be told , say his physicians , foi a day or two. Both wounds , that In tin left ear. as well as that Inthe throat , now seem to have been made by the same bullet according to the belief of the hospital sur geons. Stukesbury Is very weak , althotigli perfectly conscious and suffering no pain but his phjslclans have prohibited him from being troubled with visitors and he has beer allowed to talk but little. Ho has said , however , that he was standing on the lad der of n box car when the shot was fired at him by a man standing on nn ndjncent flat car. The ball Is thought to have entereil the upper part of the left ear , traveled along the side of the head nnd neck , finally coming out about the middle ot the throat. Upon this theory It seems little less than a miracle that It should have avoided cutting the Jugular'vein. Stukesbury has a brother In the telephone - phone office In Omaha. Yesterday morning two tramps were arrested at Pacific Junction tramps , were arrested at Pacific Junction by Detective Relnhart of the Chicago , Bur lington & Qulncy and brought to Council Bluffs. They gave their names as Frank Walby and Lorlmer , and were Identified by Stnkesbury as. having been with the gang when the shots were . fired. Eleven Jail and two more men are now In the city are under arrest 'at Neola. Detectives have been scouring the country In every direction , and the railway officials claim to be confi dent of running the guilty party to cover soon. The only fear Is that the Injured man will be unable to Identify the man who fired the shot should he be found. Last evening the Injured man was restIng - Ing comfortably , -and his physicians stated that his chances for recovery were very good. The description of the man who Is sup posed to have done the sho'otlng has been given to the police. He Is supposed to be 28 or30years old , heavy set , medium height , five feet eight Inches , smooth face , dark complexion , wearing dark clothes , with blue patch Just above the left knee.
