LaSL O1OAudJ HG HOOll A6hS tO IIlc otIeCC that the pack train had been taken in on the Pioneer trail, and the express messen- ger, Andy Hall, of Florence, and Dr. Vail, of Globe, had been killed. But the telegraph wire had been cut by the rob bers and only vague rumors of the trag- edy could be obtained. For four days the air was rife with conflicting reports of the affair and not till Sheriff Gabriel re- turned Thursday evening, did we get the particulars. Sheriff Gabriel was at Silver King when the news reached him, and he started at once for Globe, arriving there at eleven o'clock that evening. He found the whole town in arms and almost beside themselves with excitement They had brought in both bodies and buried them, and were making earnest but disor ganized efforts to discover and capture the robbers. AS is usual on such occa- sions every man had a suggestion to offer but no one seemed to understand exactly what to do. MT. Gabriel, in his capacity of deputy United States Marshal, took hold of the case and began a search for a clue. He asked Capt. D. B. Lacy if any one in Globe was suspicioned, and the latter replied, "Yes, I suspicion young Grimes. He belongs to my company of Srangers and during the Indian settlements was first to answer the call to arms, but on this occasion has kept away, and did not even come to see the bodies when they were brought in. Mir. Gabriel went to work on this clue and at the end to Lacy and told him that young Grimes was undoubtedly one of the men and should be secured at once. They then ascertained that the latter had gone down to the Wheat Fields, nine miles from Globe to work on the grade. They left immediately for that point, and on reach ing the ground got Lindsay Lewis to go up to the grade and bring Grimes down to the house. Lacy and Lewis questioned the prisoner closely but he denied his connection with the crime with the utmost sang froid, and they were about to give up the case when Marshal Gabriel, who had been standing to one side stepped up and said That's the the man, put the hand-cufs on him. I was on the hill and saw him shoot at Hall three times" This sudden charge threw the prisoner off his guard and he at once exclaimed, ''No, I didn't t, l only shot at him twice" Seeing he was caught Grimes confessed the whole thing and stated that man by the name of Hawley WAS his partner in the crime, but denied that his brother had my knowledge of it. Messrs. Gabriel, Lacy and Lewis then took Grimes up to the mill, about five miles from Globe, and Lewis guarded him there while the others went to town to capture Hawley. In the mean timo Marshal Gabriel had, by lit tie sharp practice, made Grimes believe that his brother had been arrested and confessed to having had hand in the crime and then the prisoner owned that the elder Grimes and Hawley planned the robbery. When Gabriel arrived in town he went to Grimes house three times bu did not find the old man in, so he ther turned his attention to Hawley, and aftel some trouble in finding his house, cap tured the murderer. A number of citi
 zens protested that Hawley could not b. the right man as two men were willing tC swear that he was in town when the rob
 bery occurred, and demanded the officers
 warrant. Mir. Gabriel quieted their ob lections by saying that he had arrested the prisoner on another charge. Mir GabrleFs next move was to go to the mill get young Grimes and take the two pris oners over to Saxe's ranch, about mile
 from Globe on the King trail He knev ii he kept the prisoners in town and tn, citizens found out they were the robber
 they would be lynched at once, and h.
 desired if possible, to get them to tel
 all about the robbery and the where
 abouts of the treasure before the citizen
 could get hold of them.
 Before Marshal Gabriel could get start
 ed from Saxes' ranch with his prisoners
 for Florence, officers with warrants an,
 citizens from Globe arrived on the ground
 and demanded the prisoners. Mir. Ga
 briel had arrested the men for murde
 and robbing the U. S. mail, and ol
 his authority as Deputy United State Marshal, refused to give them up. F } finally agreed, however, that if the off cers would go back to Globe and get letter from Attorney McKnabe sayin,
 that they had legal right to the prison
 CTS he would surrender them and pledged himself to wait for them at Pinal rancl till four o'clock that (Thursday) morning
 They were back on time, with the necca
 sary document and Mr. Gabriel gave II the prisoners They were taken back t Globe, and about ten o'clock Thursda, morning were hanged to the limb of
 large sycamore tree which stands in iron of J. H. Hise's store, nearly all the adul population of Globe participating in tn execution. In the mean time Cicero Grinl , es had been captured and would have me , the fate of his brother and Hawley, bu his wife and children plead for his If and Mrs. Vail asked the citizens to spar him for his wiie's sake. Hawlev, jus ! before he was hanged told where he Ina buried his third of the treasure and youn Grimes then told where he had burie the other two-thirds, the total sum bein S5,OOO in gold coin. Hawley was gam
 to the last but young Grimes lost hi f nerve while they were putting the rop | around his neck and swooned. Just be fore they commenced putting the rop around his neck he said, ''Let me pull m } boots off; don't want to die with m | boots on." His request was granted an he climbed the golden stair in his stock
 ing feet.
