Hiatt of Constabulary Has Duel With Bootlegger at Six
Paces While Lying in Crass—Charge of Aiding Prisoners'
Escape Filed Against Man Released Less Than Two Weeks.
moonshiners' cam,, was discov-,
ered up the river a short way from the
Natatorium Monday afternoon by the
state constabulary.
As a result of being found In the vi
cinity of the camp. Roy Maloney, re
leased from the state penitentiary less
than two weeks ago after serving eight
years on a burglary charge, is in trou
ble again.
Some of Maloney's' belongings, cloth
ing with his mark, were found in the
camp, according to the authorities.
MALONEY ARRE8TED.
A charge of aiding prisoners to es
cape from the penitentiary was filed
against Maloney in the court of Jus
tice of the Peace George H. Rust this;
morning by Warden VV. L. Cuddy of
Hu state penitentiary. Maloney will:
be arraigned this afternoon.
The moonshiners camp was discov
ered by W. K. Hiatt of the state con
stabulary while helping penitentiary
guards to run down the supposed trail
of three convicts, whom Maloney is!
supposed to have aided in escaping
last week.
Hiatt came upon the still abruptly.;
It was on an island in the river, anil
was so concealed that it was not no
ticeable until one was within six feet
of it. After discovering it, Hiatt sent
one of the penitentiary guards to the
constabulary office for help.
WHISTLE IS SIGNAL.
While he was waiting. Superintend
ent Breshears of the constabulary and
deputy Robinson came upon the scene.
Coming up they caught sight of a man

whom Hiatt had heard whistline In;
ine brush. The man disappeared for a
hit. Breshears and Robinson left the.
jamp.
Soon the w histling started up again,
getting closer and closer as the man
approached the camp.
Hiatt lay in wait. He was in a;
cramped position in the brus!*, lying
in such a way that if tie stirred the
man could see him. But Hiatt could
not get a clear view of the man for he
was coming up from the rear. Out of
the corner of his eye, Hiatt could see
that the man carried a gun in front of
himself and approached cautiously.
LIKE A MOVIE.
When he caught sight of Hiatt in the
grass, the man raised his gun. Hiatt
whipped his rifle around and fired
first.
The man seemed to turn a flip-flop
backward into the brush. As he did
so. he fired the revolver. Although
the men were within 12 feet of each
other, neither shot took effect.
Breshears and Robinson hearing the
shooting came up from their hiding
