Deputy Sheriff Rem Wilkins has just
returned from Nine Mile, Carbon coun-
~, where he went for the purpose of
taking two notorious cattle thieves, one
by the name of Maxwell, and the other
Pete Francis. 1t appears that these
men have stolen 81 head of cattle from
George Whittemore, and a, warrant OF
arrest has been sworn out against them,
but the officers down there are not
anxious TO make service, knowing the
outlaws to be gun men.
Mr.. Wilkins was shown the cabin
where the thieves were located, but did
not advise a raid, as there were three
girls, two children and a woman, in
side. He went in alone, however, and
found Maxwell who was heavily armed
and kept his hand upon his revolver.
Pete was absent at the time, but his
pal said he would be back in a short
time. The officer told him he had a
warrant for his arrest, and also for
Pete. Maxwell stated that if White
mOre'S men were around, he would not
go, and that the officer could go and
inform them that If they attempted TO
take them, he would kill off the entire
gang. He promised, however, to so
with Wilkins, but upon his second visit,
Maxwell had skipped. 1t was expected
that there would be bloodshed at any
moment. as there is the very bitterest
feeling existing between these parties. /
There will probably be an organized
posse equipped to capture the thieves.
