To whom it may concern:

To whom it may concern:
 WHEREAS, It has come to my knowledge that Ed. Baker, eldest son of J. II. Baker, who resides at Lookout, on the Sierra Ancha mountains, about forty miles north of Globe, Gila county was murdered in most brutal manner by some person or persons unknown, (though the pres sence of Indian tracks in the immediate vicinity strongly indicate that the crime was com mitted by Indians).

Occupants of Pullman Robbed with
Neatness and Dispatch.
rBy telegraph TO tho DispatchI
SocoRRo, New MEXICO, October "a
Thursday morning as the south-bound
train on the Santa Fe pulled ont OF Socorro
three men were seen to step on board.
After the train had passed San Antonio
these strangers entered the Pullman
sleeper and locked the door. They drew
their guns on the porter and conductor
and relieved them of their surplus cash.
They then introduced themselves to the
passengers, going through most Of them,
making quite q haul. They jumped
from the train on the Basque de Apache
Grant, taking to the hills.
1t is estimated that they got 81, 800.
The thing was done 50 neatly and quiet
ly that very few on the train knew what
had happened. The robbers were dress
ed as cowboys, whose caps and muifiers
were intended to disguise them as much
as possible. Descriptions OF them as
given by the trainmen tally with the
appearance Of two very hard characters
who have been hanging around this
vicinity for several weeks. The officers
Of the road have offered reward OF
81, 900 for their arrest.
