Chaves, had mounted the big sorrel-
from the intelligent animals actions he
would himself have followed the convicts
if turned loose-and he circled around
Gould ,empJying his six shooter at the con-
vict, but firing wide of his mark. Finally
Commissioner DeMier came out with
Winchester and marched Gould back to
the cell house, but the other three con-
victs had long since disappeared over the
ridge to the south.
THE PURSUING PARTIES.
Guards were placed on horse back and
sent in pursuit as quickly as possible. Mr..
Reaser also mounted several of his en-
ployes and sent them south to try and
recover his horses. One of these, an old
chestnut sorrel, and pretty slow for a
rider who goes for his life, came back to
town this morning, his rider having evil
IDENTIFY turned him loose not far from Ar
roya Hondo. The Rev. Mr.. Torres was
the last to see White and his companion
in fight. They were mounted on Mr..
Reaser's best team, a pair of large, spirit
ed bay horses, which he recently bought
from Fort Wingate parties. Mr.. Torres
was out driving on the Lamy road, some
eight miles south of the city, and probably
an hour after the break, when the two
Convicts passed him with their horses on
run and using the lash on them at
every jump. They still carried the har-
ness. White was about fifteen feet in the
lead and yelled as he passed and recog-
nized the minister, good bye, Mr. Tor
res"
WITH WOODEN GUNS.
The imitation weapons which Gould
and White used to carry out this despsr-
ate trick were whitfield out of pine, the
handles blackened and the barrel wrapped
with tin foil IN snch manner as to look
very formidable a few feet distant, espec-
tally when the muzzle is pointed squarely
toward you. How and when the men
found time and materials for fsshoning
these weapons" is scarcely to be guessed,
Gould and White were leaders in the
break. Gould is murderer and rustler
from Sierra county, in for life, for the
murder of man at Mutt station, and was
only q few weeks ago recaptured after
saving his way out of the pen with three
others on July %. The three men who
escaped are all vicious scoundres. White
was in for seven years for robberies and
hold-ups in south Santa Fe county; Pa
dilla murdered his wife at Socorro, and
Rivera was in for heinious crime-he
cut mans throat in Dona Ana county
and afterwards disemboweled his victim !;
both were in for life. Following is a DO,
