Newscopy: "BATTLE IS OVER--Launch Warden Johnston noses into dock at Fort Mason carrying three bodies of prison mutiny ringleaders, who met violent death after three days of relentless fighting with prison guards and U. S. Marines. The crime-toughened trio, on deck of the launch, were Paul Bernard Coy, Joseph Paul Cretzer and Marvin Franklin Hubbard. Slaying of the three hastened end of the siege.".
