A Rescue or Writ Of Eabeas Corpus
Awaiting Mcintyre Along the
Road to Albuquerque.
The Story Of the Murder Of Grosstel in
the Lone Canyon as Detailed by
the Indictment.

After waiting some time in the parish
prison the requisition for Mcintyre
has reached New Orleans. The extra
dition papers were received on Sun
day, the 26th instt., Mcintyre heing
in jail from the Goth. Gov. Sheldon
OF New Mexico did not, as was an
ticipsted, eend an officer with these
documents, but sent warrant APP
pointing Chief Zach Bachemin Of
New Orleans agent Of the territory,
and deputizing him to bring the
bodies OF James Mcintyre and james
COPYRIGHT to Albuquerque, Bernalillo
county, New Mexico, there to deliver
| them to the sheriff OF that county,
| when the reward OF $1,000 would. be
paid. IL will thus be seen that the
stipulation on which the reward would
be paid was for the arrest and safe
delivery OF the prisoner or prisoners.
Accompanying the requisition for
Mcintyre was the original affidavit,
which reads as follows:
Territory OF New Mexico, Second
Judicial District, County OF Bernalillo:
In the district court, Mt the May term,
A. ID. 1888 The grand jurors for the
territory OF New Mexico, taken from
the body Of the good and lawful men
present: That Wm. g. Moore,
James Casey, James Mcintyre, James
COPYRIGHT and Moeller w. Scott,
did on the 9TH day Of May, 1888,
. at and in this district, with force and
arms, In and upon Alexis Grosstel, In
} the peace Of said territory, then and
/ there being, unlawfully, feloniouely
y willfully and Of their malice afore
y thought, and from premeditated de
e sign to effect the death OF him, thu
Q said Alexis Grosstel, did make al
n assault, and that the sal,
8 men certain guns ther
Il and there loaded and charged will
y gunpowder and divers leaden bullets
had and held at, against and upon tn,
said Alexis Grosstel, then and Their
unlawfuliy did shoot the lat
parts of the body, producing morta
70 wounds, which killed the said Alexl

y These documents will be forwarde,
l. to Gov. McEnery for his approval an,
% warrant. AS soon as the papers ar
Re ready the accused will be started bacl
e for New Mexico; but whether b
d reaches there or not IL the question
r. as the chances of q rescue or OF tn

h of habeas corpus are excellent.
IS There is one contingency in regar
L to taking Mcintyre back which ma
a. arise. Chief Bachemin was not In Ne'
ee Orleans when the papers making hiI
agent came, and when he gets home
is very likely he win refuse TO acceI
the responsibility thrust upon him l
so unceremonious manner by III
M governor Of the territory.

against the men on May 80, 1883; ia
Casey was arraigped June A, an
