Get It at DeVoe's EVIDENCE SHOWS JOHNSON DIED FIGHTING BANDITS Inspection of the body of Coyle O. Johnson, slain in the Siskiyous tunnel by unknown train robbers, by Coroner John A. Perl, indicate that the brakeman battled with his slayers, when he plunged through the cloud of gas smoke that turned back other members of the first rescue party. The condition of his body indicates that Johnson had rolled about on the ground of the tunnel, and his hands were marked with bruises and finger scratches. Johnson was of a powerful build, and fearless, and had often said, according friends that he would never submit to a hold-up.

Acquaintances of the dead man say he would resist under all circumstances, and the findings of the coroner uphold this theory. Another sidelight nn the attempted hold was reported by D. M. Lowe, who reported that while on his way to Ashland from Talent, Thursday about 1 p. where he got a shave he passed a Hudson car, with six men in it, traveling at a high rate of speed.

Lowe says the driver was a redfaced man with a mustache, and seemed to be excited. Lowe is positive he would recognize the driver it he ever saw him again, because he came so close to running into him. Lowe passed the car near the concrete bridge south of Talent. This was about 2 o'clock Thursday. When Lowe arrived at Ashland, a few minutes before two o'clock, he' found the city agog over the robbery, and told an acquaintance, who in turn reported it to Attorney, W.

M. Briggs. A Hudson car pass through Ashland while the fire whistle was being blown to sound a general alarm, and the same make of car, it has been generally credited, as the means which the bandits employed to escape from the Siskiyous. Lowe passed the car approximately an hour after the hold-up.
