BUFFALO, Wyo., April 12-Full partic-
ulars of a fight at the t. A. ranch have
just been received. The first intimation
of an intended invasion by cattlemen was
message saying train of armed
and mounted men had been un-
loaded at Caspar. The rustlers and
small cattlemen had little time to prepare
for defense, as the cattlemen arrived SOC n
after and at once attacked the X. C.
ranch. A posse was sent to the rescue,
but when they arrived the cattlemen had
done their work and left.
The house was burned, and the dead
bodies of Nate Champion and Dick Ray
were found in the ruins Jack Flag,
notorious leading rustler, arrived at the
X. G. ranch during the progress of the
battle, and had to run the gauntlet of the
cattlemen to escape, but the cattle
men burned his wagon with the house.
Leaving the X. C. ranch the cattlemen
started for Buffalo, and the rustlers or
ganized and went to meet them. The cat
tlemen took shelter in the T.
A. ranch, which the rustlers sur
rounded, and at daylight Monday
the battle began. Shots were exchanged
all day, but the number of killed and in
jured cannot at present be learned. The
cattlemen escaped from the ranch, pre-
sumably 10 get reinforcements. The re-
suits Of today's operations are not yet
known. George Green was brought to
Buffalo yesterday badly wounded. He as
serted he had shot himself accidentally.

Train Robber Perry's Y

AoDDeE w esteTn E3piclI.
POMONA, April 1.-THE mystery of the
robbery of George E. Holden of $1,000
cash, securities and jewelry on the Santa
Fe overland train between Albuquerque
and Pomona last November has been
cleared up. Holden was robbed of his
money and bonds on his way from New
York to Pomona to spend the winter. He
had been following the races in. the East
for several months as a bookmaker, and
had become used to carrying large sums of
money with him. He said that he looked
into his satchel at Albuquerque and saw
that his funds were all right. He had no
idea but that his fellow travellers in the
Pullman were all honest men and
women, and he took no further
pa, ticular care to look after his
funds until he had arrived at his friends
home in Pomona. He found that all of
his money, bonds and jewelry were gone.
He had no reason to suspect any one in
his car, and was without a clew to the
thief. Holden took his loss philosophi-
cally, and blamed no one but himself for
the robbery. He spent the winter in Santa
Barbara, San Francisco and Santa Monica,
He has been informed by Pinkerton detec-
tives in Brooklyn and Albany, n. Y, that
the man who robbed his satchel is under
arrest. Holden started for Albany yester-
day Immediately upon the receipt of the
telegram concerning the finding of his
bonds in boarding house in that city. 1t
seems Oliver Curtis Perry, who is confined
in Jail at Lyons, n. Y, for the bold rob-
berry of an American Express car near
Syracuse on February 21, is the culprit.
Detectives, in following the clues impli-
eating Perry in the express robbery and
burglaries, found among his effects in
Albany the bonds belonging to Holden,
besides some jewelry bearing his engraved
name. Tiffany & Co., of New York, then
gave the address of Holden, who sent
full description of his jewelry. Informa-
ton comes that all the money has been
spent or secreted where the detectives
cannot recover it. Holden says that he
now has a clear recollection of young
man answering Perry's description being
in another Pullman car on the same train
coming West with him He then went
under some name like Cross or Goss and
was well liked by all the travellers for his
interesting stories of Western life and an
account of his career with Texas rangers.
Perry represented himself as the owner of
a cattle ranch in Southern New Mexico,
and had lots of money to spend, buying
Indian curiosities along the journey.
Holden is sure that Perry rode no farther
West than Prescott Junction. where he
left the train in the night, ostensibly to
60 to Prescott on business. How or
when he had opportunity to rob Hol-
dens satchel the latter does not know.
