The principles in the case are men named Nixon and TrainOr and a third whose name was not learned.
 About four years ago three cattle men who lived on the New Mexico line disappeared. They had started with a pack-train for San Carlos. The pack animals were found in the hills near Solomonville, but the owners had con- pletely dropped out of sight. The cat tlemen were trailed some distance from their starting point, but rainstorn came up and obliterated all signs of tracks and the trailers had to give up.
 Searching parties were formed and the entire country secured, but no trace of the missing men was found. That they had been murdered no one doubt ed and the Indians were first blamed for the deed, but the mere fact of the pack animals not having been relieved of their plunder looked very little like the work of Apaches. Last spring a party of cowboys discovered three skel- etons between Solomonville and Shell don. On the ground near by lay three Winchester rifles. From the weapons and the clothing the remains were identified as those of the missing cattle men.
 With the finding of the skeletons the facts of the disappearance of the men were revived and another effort made to locate the murderers.
 In some manner suspicion was direct ed against a man named Trainor and former deputy sheriff named Nixon, also third person, as being the mur- derers. Trainor had gone to Texas, but an officer was sent after him. He was brought back and the supposition is that he turned states evidence and i'm plicated Nixon and the other man.
