a man 1OS years old, and a resident of
this city for over sixty.four years. Gar
cia is about five feet ten inches high, slim
built and still has a steady walk. He is
the father OF an infant two Sears old, his
wife being 38 years Of age.
The old man refuses to take the elevator
and climbs the stairs leading to the land
Office, located in the fourth story OF the
Wilson block.
Don Francisco Garcia testified that he
discovered mineral in the land in litigation

! gold. He got $50, 900 worth OF the precious

it necessary to put in a couple OF additional
switches, or turn-outs in order to make

OF MCOY rs RUN DOWN.

His Lair on Rock Creek Said to Have
Been Discovered-where He Camped
One Night and How Sumptuously He
Jared Under the Blanket of an Ac-
q~uaintance.
ANACONDA, M. T., June 25.-[Spscial to
The Miner by the Rocky Mountoin Tele-
graph Line. ]-Advices late tonight from
Georgetown, over the Rocky Mountain
Telegraph wires, state that q fisherman,
living near there, returned late this after
noon from a ten days hunt on Rock creek
in the mountains, about Is miles from
Georgetown, and about the anne distance
from Ph~ilipsburg.
He says that last Wednesday night,
while preparing his supper at his camp,
Perry. whom he knew, rode up after ONE
casual conversation, and askedi if he could
share his blankets will. him that night.
The fisherman, not knowing anything of
the murder OF Mccoy, cordially invited him
to alight, and after sharing his bread and
coffee with Perry, of which he ate most
ravenously, they smoked a pipe or two
and then turned in. ,
Early thenext morning
PERRY Babe HIM GOODBYE,
and rode away and it was not until yester-
day, on his way back to the settlements,
that he, the Fisherman, learned OF McCoy's
murder.
Tonight another man whose name your
correspondent could not learn, came into
Georgetown from the same vicinity and re-
ports that one Of the deputy sheriffs who
has been on a still hunt for Perry since
last Tuesday, discovered his hiding-place
ofkRock creek, yesterday. Returning he COL
lected a posse, and early this morning sur
rounded Perry's lair, and is gradually
drawing in his circles.
It is believed that Perry has with him
two horse thieves who are known to infest
these regions and the particulars OF a
bloody fight are ~momentarily expected at
Georgetown.
FIsHY R
Further particulars could not be obtain
ed tonight, but several men nave gone
from Georgetown to the scene and some OF
them are expected back tomorrow after
noon
This story has "a very ancient and fishy
smell" but the operator at Georgetown in
forms me that it is generally believed that
Perry is surrounded and that there will
be a big fight.
