In one instance an attorney filed a claim for the fireman on the engine who advised young Bell to go to the sheriff and give himself up. This claim sets up that this advice being followed, result ed in the capture of the other bandit, the real murderer. It is further stated that the locomotive fireman was unable to personally conduci the bandit to the sheriff's office, being on duty. In. another claim the governor's .of fice is advised that the sheriff and dep uty of White Pine county should be granted the state reward, they making the arrests.
