whirl of excitement was caused to- day by the receipt of deed by the re- corder, which not only disclosed the di- rection which Daly took but his sigma ture is pronounced genuine by compari- son with the signatures on file in the of flee of the county recorder The paper is acknowledged by $. Harrison White, notary public for Colorado, dated Septem- Der 2d, the same day that the transfer was made. The notary attests that the person who executed the aforesaid deed was per sonally known to him to be James Daly and that he executed the same voluntar- fly. The deed transfers all the right. ti- tie and interest in the following named claims to Andrew J. Mehan. for consid- eration of $100: All of the Copper-Fry- ing pan, Republican, Angel, Irish Magg, one-third interest in the Copper Monarch, Intervenor, Old Canteen and Diadem. The signature IS witnessed by $. H. White. A letter from Mehan accompanied the deed asking Recorder Bradley to record the same, and further stating that he (Me ham would be here next month. Ad- ditional light was thrown on the transac- tion by letter received by John Shaugh- messy from Mehan, under date of Sep tember 9th, in which he says:
 You know that man Daly, who killed Lowther last spring, l have caught him and had talk with him; he has deeded all of his property to me I mailed the deed to Bradley to-day to have it record ed. l would like you to go and see what is on record belonging to Daly and send me copy of it. You can get English to hunt it up, as he understands the records well. If you cannot get him get some good man and let me know how much 1t costs, will send the amount to you. Al so go to Bradley and ask him how much 1t will cost to record the deed and pay him for 1t and send bill to me and l will pay for it. 1 want to get the deed on re- cord at once, have company who will pay me big money for the property, they have seen the property and want it. wanted Daily to go back and give himself up, which he will do as soon as he gets back from Wales. He Is in New York to- i day"
 There are various theories given regard ing this transaction. the one receiving the most favsr being that Daly is still in the neighborhood of Pueblo, and that the Wales story Is only a blind; that Daly realized that his property was in danger If the assessment work was rot done up- on it soon, and that he found a syndicate of capitalists who were willing to take hold of 1t, or that an agreement of some character has been entered into by which Mehan will look after the property here. The idea that Daly has parted with his mining claims, which were very valuable, for the consideration of $100, is not thought of seriously by any one. As soon as the news reached Tombstone Sheriff Slaughter i began working the wires east. Slaughter was not surprised at the news, as he had received information of Daly's flight north. He was seen at Flagstaff in this 1 territory, not long ago, and other smaller i towns also reported his visits.
 G. w. Cheyney had bond on the prop
 critics, which ran out few days ago. J. i Gardiner is doing assessment work on
 the properties at Bisbee for the wife of l Daly.
